What customers say

This is a highly recommended, peaceful campsite with stunning estuary views. Visitors consistently praise the friendly, helpful owner, Phil, and the exceptionally clean facilities, particularly the shower block. Pitches are generally spacious and well-maintained, with many benefiting from water and electricity. The location is excellent for exploring local attractions, with easy access to walks, beaches, and public transport. Minor points include coin-operated showers and occasional pitch leveling needs.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Beautiful location which was nice and quiet. Phil the owner was very helpful and a lovely chap. Pitch was stone which was fairly level but we had taken levelling blocks (it’s a long motorhome) grass either side of each pitch. Toilets/showers immaculate which background music which was a nice touch (you need 20p coins for the shower) washing up facilities and also a washing machine and dryer. We took the dogs and were quite happy laying in the grass next to our pitch. Site is 15 min walk from the village and train which Phil said to pop on and take a trip to pembrey and burry port (huge beach there and only £5 return) local beach is a 10 min walk. plenty of bins on site and a waste disposal (sorry no idea of the proper name) for emptying the toilet waste into.
Good free WiFi. And a good reception for our satellite tv (nice for the dark evenings)

Disliked Nothing to do with the site as such. But if you want to eat out the local pub was not always open ( we were happy cooking)

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked A lovely scenic site perfect location for dog walking and in walking distance of local town.
The owner sent us an email prior to our visit with local amenities and useful links. He greeted us upon arrival and accommodated our needs as a group of three (tent, caravan and campervan). He was very friendly!
The campsite was well maintained and suited our needs. The shower facilities were good and toilets were cleaned regularly!

Liked Beautiful and quiet. Small village a short walk away. Fantastic walk along the estuary when the tide is low which brings you out onto a sandy area. Phil the owner very knowledgeable of the area. Took a short train ride to Burry port harbour and walked along the beach and picked up a fantastic walk to Pembrey country park.

Route directions

By car: On approaching the first roundabout in Carmarthen turn left onto the A484 for Kidwelly. After about 500 metres you will pass Morrisons on the left-hand side. Go through the village of Idole (careful - there is a speed camera!) and continue for another three miles passing the Star Forge Garage on the right. A mile down a hill, take the turning for Ferryside located on the right-hand side (opposite the turning for Llandyfaelog). As you're approaching the village, turn right immediately before the humpback bridge. Ferryside Farm is the first property on the right. By train: From London, Bristol, Cardiff, or Swansea: the village of Ferryside can be reached via Arriva and First Great Western. Please check times before travelling. On arrival head down through the village passing the school on your right. After about 1.5 miles you will cross over a humpback bridge where the property can be accessed turning left into a no through road and then right into the driveway.

Local attractions

Naturally, the beaches – and the castles – are first: a paddle on Ferryside beach gives you a chance to see 12th-century Llansteffan Castle, on the other side of the Towy Estuary. It’s not much of a surprise to find out that this perch has been protected since at least Iron Age times – there was once an Iron Age fort here built by savvy ancestors protecting their section of bay from invaders. If you want to pop over for a look (as you should), it's a half-hour drive to get there. A fine collection of other castles are in the vicinity – it is Wales after all: 12th-century Kidwelly Castle and 11th-century Carmarthen Castle are the closest, but Laugharne is within 17 miles, Oystermouth 27, Newcastle Emlyn 28 and Carew 36. Once (or before) the castles are conquered, Carmarthen Bay, the Gower Peninsula and neighbouring Pembrokeshire have so many award-winning beaches you are hereby challenged to get around them in one trip. If you then fancy something inland, get to Colby Woods and Gardens or Pembrey Country Park, which has a dry ski slope, wildlife trails, horse riding and the longest toboggan run in Wales. Two types of racing are within 15 minutes of Ferryside: motor at Pembrey Racing Circuit and horse at Ffos Las Racecourse.
