 A lovely little site with clean facilities. For the site owners nothing is too much trouble. There is an iron, cooking hobs, and ice-block freezing facilities, as well as a wealth of (relevant) information about the surrounding area. The price was very reasonable.
It's a very quiet location on the coast road between Newport and Cardiff and the incredible view across the Bristol Channel is only a few minutes' walk away. There is a large Asda store a couple of miles away, and the main bus route to Cardiff is a few minutes by car. There are a couple of pubs within reasonable distance.
I highly recommend the site; I'll certainly be going back!

We have returned from a fantastic weekend in the Khaki glamping tent. The weather was not particularly warm and was definitely rainy so the wood-burning stove in the tent was well used. An electric heater was provided as well in case you didn't want to use the stove! The double bed, made up with comfy pillows and duvet (linen provided) was a real luxury. The fairy lights/electric lamps added to the atmosphere and, due to the heavy canvas, were completely invisible from outside the tent. Two full-sized folding beds were great for the children and there was still room for two armchairs. The thoughtful addition of complimentary juice, tea, coffee, milk, biscuits, electric kettle and fruit in the fruit bowl were really unexpected but most welcome. The owners were lovely and obviously work hard to make their campers comfortable. The site is small and sheltered with an abundance of wild birds- we saw swans, ducks, pigeons, numerous small birds and a lone hen!
We visited the Dr Who Experience in Cardiff Bay (took about 15-20 mins to get there on quiet road), St Fagans (museum)and Tredega House (very close-National Trust property). Had a good meal in the neighbouring village at The Six Bells pub. We will definitely return.

Had a super 2 nights, pitches all nice and level, showers good, toilets clean and quiet. Not a big site at all which suited us.
Cardiff not far away. Offered us some milk upon arrival. Can borrow cutlery, cups and plates, ironing board and iron.
No hot water in the toilets except one. No playground but plenty of space. Would go back again.
Nice sound of sheep in the distance. Owners offered me help with the tent, facilities a short walk past the caravans.

We used Ty Coch campsite as a base for camping as we were in Wales to watch Northampton Saints play Leinster in the Heinekan cup final at the Millenium stadium, Cardiff.
For anybody visiting the Millenium stadium or Cardiff in general, we drove in to Cardiff which took 10-15 mins and parked for 10 hrs on street parking for £3.50 or so. This was a 10 min walk to the stadium and city centre.
It's a small and fantastically friendly place, which was well used by other rugby fans and others who were touring. Being such a small site meant there was no trouble with large roudy groups. The site is level and well kept and the facilities are more than reasonable for the £12 a night we paid.
Follow the directions from the website and you won't get lost.
Maria and Nigel were really helpful and friendly, what's more it was our first time under canvas. What a great place!

We just had a great weekend at Ty Coch lovely quiet site half way between Newport and Cardiff.
Very friendly, we could also pick our pitch; there is some hard standing, which is great if there it happens to be one of those rare occasions of a drop of rain in Wales. The new showers are piping hot and clean. The old toilet block is still in use but not heated which we did not find a problem the dishwashing area has a kettle for hot water and lots of surface space for drying up.
There are some pubs with good food a few minutes drive away or the golf club next door (we did not visit).
Ty Coch is easy to get to and no narrow lanes if you follow their directions very easy journey from the M4 but you could drive past the entrance unless you take the last bit slowly.
It is run by friendly people who obviously care about what they do we look forward to returning. A very nice touch is the relaxed check out Maria said we could leave when we wanted to what a relaxing end to a relaxing weekend.

We stayed at this site for the Ryder Cup. I totally agree with all the comments above. The owners (Nigel & Maria) could not be more helpful yet not intrusive or interfering. They go the extra mile with regard to small considerate touches - all our pitches were labelled with our names prior to our arrival. We had some horrendous weather whilst there but the site quickly dried out. If you have dogs there are plenty of walks around to stretch those legs. I would highly recommend this site for anybody looking for a quite, clean CS. Special thanks to Maria and Nigel for making our time so enjoyable.

This is a C&CC only certificated site. When following the directions and after turning left at the T-junction, past the Golf Course, it's easy to miss the entrance. Look out for a wide entrance on the left with a little red sign-written skip displaying 'Castleton Turf'. The caravan site entrance is now 100 metres on the right, immediately past a row of overhanging trees which hide the farmhouse from view. There are no narrow country lanes and access is excellent even with the larger units.
The caravan site is under constant improvement. There are two WC unisex cubicles each with own wash basin in part of a timber barn, and also a separate dish wash area. A kettle is provided to heat up dishwashing water, but the sink and drainer is as new. The barn may look dilapidated, but the toilets are very clean and well maintained with plenty of toilet paper and soap. An information area provides details of local attractions and there are a selection of books to borrow and read
There is one shower at present which is situated in the annexe of the house which will eventually become a self-contained holiday flat. This is a domestic power shower with a third WC and wash basin adjacent. There is plenty of really hot water, no annoying push buttons, and it is probably one of the best showers on ANY site that I have used. There are nice touches such as a choice of shampoos for guests to use. Again, this area is spotlessly clean and is like being in a B&B.
Outside, Nigel (the owner) is constructing a row of additional showers for future use.
There are five hardstandings with EHU's although levelling will still be required. There is plenty of space between units which can be seen on their website. Other facilities include a chemical waste point, tap for cleaning the cassette, and a separate drinking water tap with a short length of blue food-grade hose attached. Excellent - unlike many sites which just use a length of green hosepipe
The fees for the peak season including 2 adults are £12 per night. Now I have paid £11 per night last year (2009) in CL's with no other facilities than just a water tap and a manhole cover for a chemical waste disposal point, both several hundred metres away from my pitch.
The location is set behind the farmhouse and although the road is not busy, any traffic noise is very subdued. There are nearby footpaths to reach the edge of the Bristol Channel overlooking Weston-super-Mare, and a coastal path to walk along. And for shopping, there is a large Asda only about 3 miles or 10 minutes drive away which is really convenient. Cardiff and Newport city centres are only about 15-20 minutes away by car.
In conclusion I would highly recommend this CS, in particular for its cleanliness, excellent value for money and peaceful rural location yet near to all amenities.
