  • Dog-friendly and peaceful park with rural river views
  • Defined family-friendly and adults-only fields
  • Many walks available nearby
A view… by a river… well of course. River View Touring Park in south-west Wales has the scenic River Gwili flowing along part of its boundary: you should settle down here immediately with river view and book. Although the site is in a peaceful rural setting, it's easily reached from Junction 49 of the M4 and other major routes and has easy access to the attractions and activities of Carmarthenshire and south Wales. It faces south, is filled with native trees, wildflowers and wildlife as well as the river views, and covers six acres with a woodland walk linking to the five-acre hay meadow – both topping spots for strolls for walking the dog. (Another walk is available across the bridge and up a track skirting a wooded valley.) River View is owned by Sian and Andy, who live on site with the mission of helping guests have as peaceful and enjoyable a stay as possible. The facilities they've added include four sinks and drainers for washing up, and a modern toilet and shower block with a family room, disabled access and (always a winner) underfloor heating. Everyday essentials like milk, bread, soft drinks, cakes, sweets and some local produce are available in the small shop at reception, along with free-range eggs when the chickens are in production and local bacon and sausages when available.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, clean, and friendly campsite with excellent facilities, particularly praised for its underfloor heated toilet and shower block. Guests enjoyed the peaceful riverside location, spacious pitches, and helpful owners. The on-site bar and play area were popular with families, and dog walking opportunities were appreciated. Some minor issues were reported regarding occasional electric tripping, limited shop stock, and occasional noise from traffic or other guests, though overall feedback is overwhelmingly positive.

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The pitches were really tidy, ours was in a perfect place, close enough to the shower/toilet/washing up block and close to the bar. The communal areas were well looked after and the showers hot. The owners/staff are often around to ask questions which is useful and you can also chat to them at the bar once it's open. The electricity is reasonably priced for those that need it. It's easy to find and a short drive to larger shops too. Our information was pinned to the board ready at Reception upon arrival - super quick and convenient :)

Disliked We booked assuming this so not disappointed at all, but you can hear a reasonable amount of car/motorbike noise from the main roads. You do become used to it very quickly and it's mainly around busy periods. Just one to watch if you were hoping for complete quiet at all times.
