 This visit was our first time camping, we were made to feel most welcome, we were told where the best place to pitch our tent was as we came with 3 young children, so we pitched in the flat paddock. The shower and toilets were spotless and were cleaned regularly throughout the day. The views were breathtaking this whole area is just one of immense beauty.
Would recommend this site to anyone and we will be going back soon.....when its a bit warmer!

Wow! The view is very impressive, Nice clean site, a little on the small side. On arriving at the site as we pulled on to the main camping area we were greeted by the warden who offered us advice on where best to pitch our tent, as the site does slope quite a bit, she was also a mind of information on places to visit, the shop is only small but friendly, the toilets and showers may be a bit tight for room but are well maintained.
the trek down to the beach can be a bit tricky, if you have children forget taking the pushchair, it does have some "steps" down to beach.
A very friendly site topped off by a nice couple bringing round freshly caught fish for bar b que at the night time

As everyone has said fantastic views across the bay from the site.
On ringing the site we were informed that there wasn't available space, so we turned up anyway and the site was near empty?
We were lucky in getting a pitch on a reasonably flat area near the top the of the site. However, be warned flat pitches are few and far between. There is a second neighbouring very flat field which we were informed we couldn't use, as this was an "overflow" field for the weekend. During the course of our stay during the week this field proceeded to fill up? Methinks a warden with a car park attendant attitude.
You will develop the agility of a gymnast when trying to undress in the very small showers.
Otherwise a fantastic location and yes I would go back just for the views and the beach alone.

Nice clean site with some excellent views. The site has direct access to a nice beach all be it a bit of a steep climb up back to the camp site.
There are only 3 showers in each of the gents & ladies toilets and only 4 sinks to dish wash, so when the site is full you have to queue. With the site being full the showers soon run out of hot water both in the morning and evening (your best bet is to have a shower at 5pm).
Its a free for all as to where you pitch so if you are in group get their early. We elected to go into the play area field as this is relatively flat. You may end up on a hill if you go into the other field.
Would recommend camp site to others but don't think it is worth a second visit.

This site has the most fantastic views, the beach is lovely, but can only be reached by a very steep climb or an easier but long route round.
I had booked this site three months earlier and was not happy on arriving to find that there was not a space reserverd. We were given pitch on the side of a hill which was not really suitable for a caravan as we had to pitch with one side on several blocks but it was this or nothing.
There were two areas for camping, as has been said, the one with the best views is on a steep hill.
The toilet and shower block is basic. There is a shop selling most things which is open long hours.
The area is lovely and for anyone having trouble getting down to the beach try the nearby Oxwich bay, here you can park right next to the beach if you arrive early enough.

Apart from the excellent views and lovely beach I would not recommend this campsite for a relaxing holiday ( unless you have a caravan) most of the field is on a steep slope and only the lucky few get to camp on the edge, I was one of those, however , upon returning from town I found a new arrival putting up his frame tent in the space I was told to put my car, this left a gap of three feet between us, the warden was called and was most rude to me, only my insistance got the tent removed.
This also happened to others on at least three occasions during my stay, also I don,t pay £13 a night and pay for showers and hot water this is sheer money grabbing

Stayed for a week in our basic caravan. Very helpful warens and owners. Great views, very clean facilities. site crowded at weekend, some campers noisy past 11pm, much more peaceful mid-week. Beach all you could wish for. Very windy, but what do you expect perched on top of a high cliff?
Couple of negative points: very small shower space and tokens (30p) needed for showers which were not always as hot as they could have been. Unable to buy more than 5 tokens at a time. Shop poorly stocked.

We arrived at 11am on a saturday morning to find the site packed, it was a free for all as to where you pitched the tent. With only the steep pitches available. If anything that was the only down side with the stay. But having said that on sunday night there was only us and 8 other tents there after a mass exodus.
The view at the top of the hill really couldn't be bettered, it was spectacular. The facilities were adequate for the size of the site, but very clean and well stocked with toilet paper. The owner of the site were really friendly and helpful.
All in all i would definitely go back there again.

We visited 11/12th June 2005. It is a glorious site with unmatched views. The facilities are basic but clean. They had excellent warden care when we arrived, ensuring we got a brilliant site overlooking the bay as it was a very busy weekend. Yes I did slide down my sleeping bag a bit, but this is not a luxury site, it is real outdoor camping with adequate, clean loos, lots of loo roll, 3 adequate showers... and there was no queue when I was there with my sister in law and two year old daughter! Remember your BBQ...but do remember to light the disposable type on rocks so's not to scorch the grass, lets keep it nice for everyone else.
Its a steep drop to the beach...but such a quick access to the beach, you couldn't be any closer, otherwise you'd be camping on the beach! Lovely view of a ruined castle across the bay too. We had a great time and the two year old loved it, not forgetting a really good selection of ice cream in the shop.

This site has the most fantastic views of the bay, but beware the pathway down is only for the very able bodied, and for the climb back make sure you take your oxygen tank! There is a better access but it is a long way round. Some of the site is level but the best views are to be had by pitching your tent on the hill, you may have to make the sacrifice of sleeping upright, as it is so steep.
The owners are very friendly and open the shop from 7.30 to 8 at night. The showers let the site down as they need a token which you put in outside the cubicle which is not easy to get into and if your token runs out half way through you have to start all over again.
It is a fair way to the nearest pub and as the roads are narrow and have no foot path it wouldn't be advisable to walk.
This site is lovely but as it is such a trawl to and from the bay I would not stay here again. I also think the site is more suited to tents than caravans. If you are booking make sure they will have a pitch when you arrive, I booked three months in advance and when we arrived there was no pitch for us, we had to wait while they shuffled the electrics around, we were not amused.
A few miles down the road is Oxwich Bay and if you get there early you can park just a step away from the beach it is lovely, you can park all day for £3. Just away from the bay are shops and cafe.
