Non-electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked: Ease of access. Great location. Farm animals. Simple but clean facilities.

Disliked: Smaller field was a bit crowded and felt close to the road. Would have preferred a more 'wilderness' feel but only down to lack of research on my part.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked: Great site, nice and flat so easy to pitch. Site drains well, which was great on such a wet and windy weekend. Facilities are simple but good and kept clean. A great pub across the road and the milk hut - which our children loved and was super helpful for fresh milk.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked: We were camping in the dog free paddock and had a great welcome from the hosts. The campsite is on a farm and has a great feel, with clean toilets and shower, flat pitches and a pub across the road. We felt very welcome and relaxed through our stay There is a nice 15 min walk to Dunraven bay which is a great beach for swimming, sandcastles and fossil hunting

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Loved the rustic, country feel to the campsite. Loved the donkey ❤️❤️❤️ watching the ducks and chickens. The kettle in the horsebox was really helpful touch. Loved the flushing toilet near our tent so not having to hike miles in the night to go to the loo!! Loved the milkshack over the road where the kids got some yummy milkshakes.

Disliked: Nothing

Non-electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked: Petite campsite with large pitches, no extra charges for a pup tent or gazebo. Parking is visible from all pitches. Access to a kitchen with fridge, freezer, kettle, toaster and extra plugs for charging devices. 1 shower cubicle with electric shower, 2 toilets with ample loo rolls, paper towels & hot water, very clean & well maintained. A few minutes drive from some beautiful beaches, situated opposite a pub restaurant, small but ample post office & corner shop in the local village. We enjoyed the quiet easygoing pace of this campsite, it was compact and contained, the 12pm checkout made packing up much less stressful. There is no wifi & barely any phone signal, a dream in todays hectic world.

Disliked: No dislikes. Although a hook outside the shower door for a dry robe would be really helpful 🙂

Walking distance to the beach around 25minutes by public footpath, great views... opposite to farm pub/restaurant with good food. 5minutes by car local shops or 10 minutes longer Bridgend town.

Local attractions

Let’s start with those beaches… you can’t venture very far round these parts without stumbling upon one or the other. Southerndown beach (aka Dunraven Bay) is the closest, and a fab place for keen-eyed types to do a spot of fossil hunting or rockpooling. Ogmore-by-Sea and surfers' fave Rest Bay are other top picks nearby. Those who like their beach days served up with plenty of antics should head over to Porthcawl, 15 minutes away – here there’s a surf school, a kiteboarding centre and an activity centre that can fix up days of kayaking, canyoning and coasteering. Golfers can wield a club in Porthcawl or Southerndown, and riders can saddle up in Ogmore-by-Sea. If you fancy a break from the open air stuff, there’s a sizeable outlet shopping village 20 minutes’ drive from the site (also a fab place to pick up extra kit for your outdoorsy adventures).
