What customers say

This is a well-maintained, peaceful campsite with spacious, private pitches. Visitors praise the cleanliness of the facilities, including the showers and washing-up areas. The host, Michael, is consistently described as friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Highlights include fire pits, picnic tables, and the "eco outlook" of the site. While most feedback is overwhelmingly positive, a few guests suggested improvements such as additional phone charging points.

Charlotte R.

Woodland Camp geodesic dome

Liked We'll be back next year! What a beautiful place. Stunning views, quiet and secluded, and so much wildlife to see! The glamping dome we stayed in was very comfortable and spacious. The kitchen area had all that we needed, and the shower was hot. Perfect.
But best of all, the memory we will take away, was watching the shooting stars overhead in the dark skies! That and the wonderful camp fire.
Thank you Michael for making us feel so at home.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Toilets clean and didn't smell. Excellent showers, excellent pot wash. Fire pits great. Host warm and welcoming. Phone charging points useful. Good phone signal on Vodafone, less good on Three.

Wonderfully peaceful and relaxing site.

Disliked A kettle in the barn would be useful. But nothing major.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch (superior)

Liked Limited number of separate mowed pitches, nicely spaced apart so you’re not camping on top of your neighbour. Nice clean showers and washing up facilities. Helpful, friendly owner.

Local attractions

The famed former home of famed Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, The Boathouse, is under 10 minutes' drive from the site. There are spectacular views of the Taf estuary from here (Thomas's first poem after moving in was on the view from his writing shed), and you should be able to see local species like seals and oystercatchers as well as herons and egrets. From The Boathouse (have a sturdy bite to eat in the tearoom first), set off on the mighty Wales Coast Path, the 870-mile route from Chepstow in Monmouthshire north to Queensferry in Flintshire. This is some spectacular scenery (hailed by travel boffins as the best coastal landscape in Britain), so aim to hike as much as you can manage; the Carmarthenshire section is 68 miles and includes the 2,470 acres of the Millennium Coastal Park overlooking the Gower peninsula. A couple of castles are within easy reach (Laugharne is 10 minutes' drive away and Llansteffan 25), but for a day out with a difference drive the 15 minutes to Pendine Sands, home of the splendid Museum of Speed.
