This site is ok, for all the attractions of Porthcawl,
we wouldn't stay for more than a couple of nights ourselves as it isn't the best kept site, and the owners should spend some money on the upkeep, instead of extending the site.

Good location to explore the local area, car needed as nearest shop quite a walk and not a safe walk with kids. The site was small but very clean with electric plug in & water.
It’s a rustic field with just water & electricity as long as you understand that’s what your getting it’s great.

There was nothing to dislike about this site it was brilliant,
Showers and toilets were very clean,
Close to all local attractions, bars, shops and the beach etc.
Staff were amazing as was the free entertainment.
Will be going back for definite.

Excellent location. Shower plug was blocked, so I was standing in the prevous person shower water.
Only one female toilet in action. Close to amenities. Porthcawl is a lovely town.

Needs a lot of work to make it nice. It is in a good location. Apart from getting keys did not see any staff on site even then they did not explain about the site.

We stayed here for 6 nights, the fresh water hose was in the toilet waste which we didn’t notice until last day! I have come home and am really unwell, maybe a coincidence but maybe due to clean water in toilet waste?!
We were allocated a pitch by the see front as my brother is blind and likes to listen to the sea, then got told we couldn’t have it and was put to the back of the campsite.
The toilets were disgusting with urine over the floor and faeces all up the toilet walls. The showers were blocked and didn’t work properly.
Phoned the high tide to let them know an ambulance was entering the site as my dad was rushed to hospital ( they wasn’t interested and said ok! Then put phone down)
Loved porthcawl but this had put us off.

We have just stayed here mid way through our 2018 tour, first impression are poor. First point of contact demanded £20 deposit for barrier key, ok not problem, I had to go back to car and get it which was blocking part of the car park off (wasn't sure we were at the right place). Went back paid deposit and was told to be off site before 12. Noon. I wasn't shown where to go how to get there where the toilets were (PORTA LOO CABINS). Where water was, chemical waste etc was just left to fend for ourselfs.
Once on site we honestly thought it was. A. Travellers. Site. Loads of transit vans etc. How ever it turned out not to be such a bad site in all honestly. Location for beach was great 2 min walk if that pubs. Clubs fun fair. Arcades shops/stalls chinese and kebab stall. Nice walk to treco park on beach 15 mins or 10 - 15 mins town plenty of shops and cafes.
Very basic site ok location needs updating but any price increase would make the site not worth it. Don't expect too much and you will be ok

Camped out in their car park for a few nights and really enjoyed it. A few people braved it on the weekend but during the week nights had the car park all to ourselves. So plenty of space for games with the dog, who loved it.
I had stayed here before and had breakfast in the Hi Tide, but sadly they don’t serve breakfast in the winter, just a paired down menu. Which was perfectly satisfactory. Traditional pub grub, with frozen chips. So basic but plentiful.
Loved the hot fresh baguettes with butter and the ham, egg and chips. I tried out their Sunday lunch, which was pretty good. Not exactly a carvery as everything is dished up to you in precise proportions. Could have done with some more roasties, but certainly plenty of meat.
Again, the sign outside said serving until 3pm, although I was probably the last to be served around 2. 30, when they cleared down. Well it is the middle of winter I suppose.
On our last night, my partner joined me and we were allowed to take the dog into a corner of the restaurant while we ate dinner. He even enjoyed a couple of biscuits off the waitress who was really lovely. In fact all the bar and waiting staff were excellent.
Really friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back. Thanks to all.

Great location for Porthcawl, afraid that’s about it! We didn’t book EHU so we’re in the 2nd field, facilities were awful. 4 portaloos and an Elsan tank, there was no water to clean this after emptying the cassette, it was filthy. Fresh water tanks located at various points on the field, had warning signs, do not drink without boiling. A huge open skip for waste! £20 deposit for barrier key meant we had to stay until the office opened next morning, would have preferred to make an early get away. Staff we asked had no idea when the office opened.
