  • Spectacular setting for the Gower Peninsula, overlooking Oxwich Bay
  • Refurbished eco-friendly shower block with underfloor heating
  • Large adventure playground
You will, of course, have heard of the great Gower Peninsula. This spectacular south Wales spot of cliffs, coves, caves and bays is so handsome it was designated the first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the UK way back in 1956, made up of 70 square miles from Loughor Estuary to Swansea Bay; if you've never been, this really must be on your holiday list. The folk at award-winning Greenways of Gower Premier Leisure Park reckon their location is 'second to none' for Gower camping – and once you arrive there, you'll reckon they're right. Right in the centre of the peninsula, Greenways overlooks stunning Oxwich Bay and its two and a half miles of golden sands, once named as the best beach in Britain; Rhossili Bay, several times voted the best beach in Wales, is under 20 minutes' drive from here. Greenways is a family-run and family-orientated park, with grass pitches and plenty of space. Gratified previous guests have lauded the amenities as 'exceptional': they include an eco-friendly and modern shower block with underfloor heating running off an air source heat pump, plus disabled facilities and a parent and baby washroom. For leisurely pursuits, a big adventure playground is next to the camping area. There's also a pizza truck and a pop-up bar on site (these two are available on weekends in the summer or on bank holidays). Shops and restaurants are within walking distance.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Good location, very spacious, toilets and showers clean and sufficient

Disliked: On the Friday of our visit, my wife went to the shower block at 9:15 in the morning, only to be told by two grunts that the boss had told them to clean everything because a lot of people were coming in that day, prior to the weekend. She was already in a toilet when they started taking the mats out of the showers and hosing the place down, despite my wife’s protests, soaking her Birkenstocks in the process.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (two person)

Liked: Great facilities, the toilet blocks were warm and the showers were hot which was lovely after a long walk. We visited the campsite in June and it wasn't too busy which made the site feel more secluded. The views of Oxwich bay were beautiful and there were lovely walks from the campsite to many different beaches.

Disliked: There were a few tents playing music when we arrived and we were worried they would have it on all evening but a warden came to all the tents at 10pm and asked everyone to switch their music off which was great and meant we could have a peaceful evening.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (two person)

Liked: The staff were lovely and very helpful, the facilities were so clean with hot showers, there was a pizza bus and bar on-site that opened later on

Disliked: This isn’t about the campsite but about the surroundings - my map had taken us a longer route which went through some lanes above the campsite, they were very narrow and couldn’t see much in front of you. We found that you could go another way which is straight down the hill towards the beach, a lot quicker and safer!

Local attractions

The stunning sands of Oxwich Bay and their fringe of dunes, woodland and coastal footpath should be your first Gower Peninsula port of call, for long lazy days sunbathing and sandcastle building, summer watersports such as sailing, swimming, windsurfing and diving, and boat and jetski launch from the beach. Around the sands, this is prime walking land: take the Gower Coast Path from the bay for a three-and-a-half-mile coastal and woodland ramble to Oxwich Point, or around the same distance from the bay to Port Eynon Walk via Three Cliffs Bay and Port Head. The wetland site of Oxwich National Nature Reserve, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, is also well worth a wander. For a city sightseeing day, Swansea is half an hour's drive from the park.
