A very welcoming and friendly host. He was very helpful and accommodating. Beautiful bakery on site. Overnight was peaceful and felt safe. Toilets and showers were basic but clean with hot water. Local store nearby for fresh produce.
Very friendly welcome. Ideal for doing Three Cliffs Bay. The man that came to show us where to park couldn’t have been nicer and put us out the way on some hard standing. The on site bakery is delicious. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the Heritage museum. Definitely recommend!
Great stop over, it's £20 for the night which includes 1 adult entry to the heritage centre. Staff are amazing so friendly and happy!! Great little shop sells cider made there, a lovely bakery opens in the morning. Toilets were open overnight as well, showers are very basic (do not expect a beautifully clean bathroom) but the water was hot..... its a no frills facility. we will be back
Overnight Parking for £20. Toilets available and open all night. Showers available £1 for 5min Token. Great location walking distance to Three Cliffs Bay Beach The Gower Inn pub just up the road 2min drive or 15min walk. Shop/Cafe close by also. Ideal for our overnight stop.
The parking is very convenient because it marks the start of the superb walk to the beach. But for a campervan, it costs £12 just to park the vehicle, without visiting the museum or staying overnight.
Lots to do! We had the field to ourselves next to the ponies, toilets close at 7:30 for the night.
really friendly place to stay. chap on car park was amazing and so friendly. and the lady in the shop couldn't be more helpful. toilets and showers available. and some horses and lots of cows for the kids to be entertained!!!
Stayed before for £12 overnight, decent site but you have to pay extra for the showers which are quite poor. Now upped the overnight charge to £20 per night and still have to pay for the showers
Stayed overnight and the following day. Walked from here to Three Cliffs Bay. Bought some cakes from the on-site shop. Staff were very helpful about walks and places to visit.
Went to stay here tonight and they have now increased the overnight parking to £20.
Lovely stop over as stated £12 for the night, really friendly staff and great coffee and bakery. Amazing walks to the castle and down to the bay. Peaceful nights sleep and £1 for a shower. Will definitely stay again.
Really lovely overnight stop for £12 purchased online or at the Centre. as others have said the walks to Three Cliffs Bay and the ruins of Pennard Castle are just along from the car park. Toilets and showers were kept open overnight. It was so peaceful and wonderfully friendly. In summer they open up the adjoining field so there are more spaces.
Really friendly overnight stop, just stayed 2 nights £12 per night toilets and showers £1 token open all night, can buy cakes bread beer and cider ,very quiet and peaceful would definitely return. Good 4g and phone signal no tv frequency.
The sanitary facilities are old but clean and functional. You have to buy coins for the shower: £1 for about 3 minutes. They can be purchased at the Centre during opening hours. The pitch itself can be paid for online on the Centre’s website.
A fab stopover, right opposite a beautiful walk to Three Cliffs Bay and just down the road from the Gower Inn, which does great food! Toilets and showers are basic, but it’s only £12 per vehicle, per night, so I didn’t expect The Ritz! Top tip: There’s a little bakery in the car park, which sells the best pain au chocolate each morning!
Such a lovely place. Such friendly people. Shower: Yes. Stylish? No. And yet… after a serious hike, it was perfect. Wonderful! Thank you.
Great place for the night!
Can only agree with other comments about how great this place is, make sure you pay a visit to the heritage centre itself we found it very interesting. The Gower Inn is only 0.6 miles away but best reached by the woodland footpath opposite shepherd's store, turn left after little footbridge, at the end of the path cross over another footbridge and turn right. Will return to this place for sure.
Great place to spend a night or two exploring Gower. Lovely vibe about the place, clean and functional loos and showers. Good bakery, the chocolate brownies are the best we've had. £12 covers you until 10am so get up early and take a walk down to Three Cliffs Bay and have the place to yourself. On the way back, find the grotto under the castle and say "Shwmae" to the Welsh Faeries.
what a fantastic find! friendly and welcoming, the heritage centre is a must see, a community museum at it's best. lots for children.
Beautiful little spot, £12 per night, and we set up our campervan right next to the stream, left the door ajar and fell asleep listening to the gentle trickling water. Toilets open overnight - though it's only a 30 second walk, I found it pretty scary in the extreme darkness, so take a torch and a friend if you can! Showers available, too. Also refilled our 5l water bottle at the bakery.
Great place, we didn’t camp but the staff were amazing and helpful.
Lovely parkup managed by the Gower Heritage Centre. Only £12/ night, which also includes entry for one person to the Centre. You can fill up your water as well behind the bakery, the super friendly staff will tell you where.The Heritage Centre definitely worth a visit. Three Cliff Bay is about 40 min walk away.
