Dowlais Farm Holidays

Em va agradar: Lovely relaxed setting on the Pier to Pier cycle route. Easy to use facilities with instant hot water. Very quiet with only a few pitches.

Em va agradar: Believe the hype! This place is an absolute gem. Quiet, peaceful, large pitches in a beautiful orchard, alongside a seldom used road (apart from bicycles as it's part of the national cycling network). The compost toilets are spotless, with lovely smelling foam soap for hand washing. David the owner was very helpful. For those cycling, it's only a 6 min cycle to The Salthouse (for food) or 10 min cycle to town (for shopping).

Del gerent: Hi Duncan
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed our site and found it to be up there with the best! We really look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Thanks for leaving a review!

Em va agradar: We loved this small site with a laid back approach.
The location was great to get to the pier to pier cycle route. The friendly owner met us and showed us to our pitch, although if he hadn’t spotted us, there was a board showing our pitch for us.
Compost toilet was cleaned regularly, showers hot and face wash facility basic, but fitted perfectly with the site 👍🏻
The orchard was a lovely setting. We loved our time here and will be returning.

No em va agradar: Nothing - a great little find

Em va agradar: Lovely site. Easy arrival and good communication prior to arrival. Facilities good and showers hot. Our 4 year old had a great time. On the pier to pier cycle route to Clevedon and Weston so ideally located.

No em va agradar: Hard stony ground means you will need strong tent pegs.

Em va agradar: Absolutely fantastic site, we loved the setting within the orchard, although on a working farm it was very peaceful
There was a board on the gate at the entrance to the site allocating your place which was helpful when arriving and the pitches were well marked
We met the owner David who was very helpful
This was the first time we had stayed on a greener camping club site and loved the concept, we will be back

Em va agradar: From the ease of booking and payment online, to arriving at the picturesque orchard the whole experience was magical.
My name and pitch was written on a white board attached to the gate of the pretty orchard where we pitched up.
The green toilets were well built and beautifully adorned with picked flowers from the lovely adjacent border filled with a colourful array of Many varieties.
A scoop and fresh smelling sawdust in a small dustbin kept everything clean and odourless.
With a good supply of toilet paper and hand wash outside.

Plenty of very hot water available for washing up and showering.

We walked from the site along the lane, then alongside the river towards the harbour, over towards the beautiful church with its glorious gardens, up to the coastal path.
Great views across to the pier and arriving by the out door swimming lido.
Stopping at the Salthouse pub, ( as you do), before the walk through the houses and back towards the site.

The sunshine was glorious next morning and as we cooked our breakfast outside we enjoyed the birdsong and watching the swifts circling above us in the blue skies.

I appreciate the weather makes a huge difference to any camping experience and we were lucky.
But it’d been cloudy the day before when we arrived.

However this little gem of a site is simply lovely.
Thanks to all who run it so efficiently.
Well done.
