Primitive cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite (family)
Liked: Campsite owner friendly & approachable. Made us feel welcomed as soon as we arrived. Grounds are perfect for going into the ‘wild’ and stripping right back to basics (not very good phone signal). A friendly peacock approached us one evening just after dinner beautiful to see. On the outskirts of Margam park, walking distance approx 10/15minutes. Pushchair friendly.
