This site has got to have one of the best views ever. Try and get a pitch on the cliff top, it's worth the effort.

Site has it's own beach access, albeit a bit steep.

Toilets and showers are kept spotless, only gripe is showers are not free.

Previous reviews complain about some of the camp rules. From what I could see they are only common sence to keep the kids safe.

We have used this site many times, and will continue to do so.

Just fabulous. The greatest views of any site I have been to. Quiet, clean well run - sell your kids to get one of the clifftop pitches. and good safe access to a wonderful beach.

Only one tiny niggle - the logistics of getting a coin into the shower slot while naked, and the tight turning circles within the shower cubicles themselves.

From a personal and selfish point of view, I firmly recommend you pass this site by!

Stayed for a fortnight with our sister who was a first time camper, we experienced two really bad storms, lots of flattened tents, fortunatley ours wasn't one of them.

Campsite was great, we has six kids with us who all had a fantastic time. Views spectacular, enormous beach, lots to explore, definately going back next year.

This was our first camping trip and we had a fantastic time. The views from the site are amazing; we pitched in the edge of the field overlooking the bay. The site staff were really helpful and shop was excellent. Only negatives were the Shower / toilet block was great when cleaned but got dirty very quickly when it had been raining. The queue for showers (only 3 in ladies) not amusing with young children... but overall we would definately recommend for the view alone. Just a shame the field wasn't a little flatter. Pitch your tent carefully!! well worth a visit and we will be returning next summer.

Our first camping trip - Stew's first to Wales. A great popular site, well maintained but a bit crowded when we arrived. We ended up on a slope for the first night, but quickly moved in the morning to a spot on the cliff overlooking the most beautiful bay we had ever seen.
We were in awe. We walked on the beach and I ventured into the sea - while city boy Stew observed from the rocks. I did get him to take his walking boots off and buried his feet in the beautiful clean sand!! The showers were great but an occasional queue in the mornings to wash up - remeber to collect tokens from the shop to use these facilities.
It was the most relaxing weekend we have ever spent just cooking and chilling and gazing at the view. We would definately return one day.

Basic site and small but the cleanest site I have ever been to, hot water but it is a token shower. The views are out of this world looking directly over the bay, good atmosphere nice staff. There is a pub about a 10 minute walk away although it is a country road you have to walk on, could be dangers in the dark.
Plenty to do in the area, lots of beaches nearby as well as three cliff but this is one of the best beachs, long walk down and a steep hill coming back up.
Would recommend this site to anyone will go there through this year as well.

Amazing views, this campsite is worth a visit purely based on that. The facilities are basic but more than adequate and clean.
The climb down to the beach is a bit steep, but easily done carrying children and all the days provisions!
Very dog friendly with easy access to areas to exercise them.

What a fantastic site! Arrived early to secure a good spot at the front of the site on the cliff top, with the most spectacular view I have ever seen of the Three cliff's. We had a caravan but beware, you need a long lead to hook up to the electric, we had to face our caravan away from the view because our lead didn't reach the power point. Camper's beware very steep banking for tents but some flat pitches available.

Toilet blocks and shop good. Excellent reception on TV, from caravan aerial (no hook up available). Very steep walk down to Three cliffs bay,(not accessible by car) there is a gentler walk but it takes longer. Fisherman take your gear, its very close to the sea, and the river that runs into the sea contains some good fish. Nice views of castle ruins from the bay.

 Summer 2003
Our first attempt at camping !
We purchased a tent and a friend recommended the Three Cliffs Bay site to us. As we live fairly near to swansea and we have 5 children we decided to leave the tent there for a month, we would travel back and forward whenever the opportunity presented itself.
Our children had a fabulous time, although the beach was quite a trek ! A quick drive in the car gave us the opportunity of exploring the fabulous beaches around.
Although we were novices the owners of the site were very helpful, the shop was small but adequate for a small campsite, and the shower blocks were very clean.
There is a field for the children to play in and our Kids were soon whizzing about on their bikes.
I would wholly recommend this site and the helpful people who run it.

Having read some of the previous comments, I found some of them to be a little harsh. The staff have a low profile and are very helpful and polite, I saw no evidence of them flexing their authority other than to protect the interest of the kids.

The facilities are basic however these were always clean. On the downside, there are only 2 showers in the mens and 3 in the ladies although surprisingly the queues never seemed to be too bad despite the site being full at the time of our visit. The shower cubicles are very small (you can hardly open the door unless you step into the shower tray and a light wouldn't have gone a miss!).

The field has lots of flat areas however beware of the slope if you are in a tent, many kids were reported to have woken up at the bottom of the tent having rolled down in the night!

The beach is excellent however the path down can be a little dicey although there is another path to the beach you can walk down which makes the walk easier however this is a little longer.

This is an excellent little campsite and I would have no doubt in recommending this to others. I suspect I will be visiting again in the near future!

ps We found the shop to be reasonably priced and to stock all basic provisions. Shower tokens are 30p and are ample for the average male shower time, ladies, wash your hair a little quicker!!
