Family-friendly park

  • Well-maintained friendly park five minutes' drive from Llantwit Major
  • A 10-minute drive from the coast and half an hour from Cardiff
  • A short walk from a go-karting circuit for adults and older kids
Coast days, castle trips, Cardiff wanderings and a cluster of family-friendly attractions… it’s safe to say that there’s plenty to do in the area around Llandow Touring Caravan Park. This spacious south Wales spot is surrounded by field and farm, giving it a sheltered and secluded vibe that’s fab for a family break; a warm welcome awaits here for all, including kids and holidaying hounds. Both have been catered for on the playtime front too – there’s a fenced-off play area for the kids and a dog run area for the pups. And as over-tired tiddlers are no fun for anyone, the site also enforces a noise curfew to give a good chance of peaceful slumbers for all. The park’s not as middle-of-nowhere as its rural backdrop may suggest – restaurants, pubs, shops and other handy bits and bobs are less than 10 minutes’ drive away in Cowbridge (to the north) or Llantwit Major (to the south); there’s also a well-stocked shop on site for times when you just fancy taking it easy. Beach days and coastal walks (both with mighty fine views) are about 10 minutes' drive away. For active types, a go-karting centre is within strolling distance and surf lessons, horse riding and golf within a 15-minute drive. Cardiff city centre’s about a half-hour drive away: take a train from Llantwit Major if you fancy leaving the wheels behind.

Richard H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked: Clean, well laid out site with plenty of space.

Easy to find.

About as close as you can get to the coastal path.

Pleasant welcome.

Small shop.

Disliked: No real walks available from the site.

Showers are a bit of a nightmare.

In the men's the two on the outside wall are too low and you have to put your head on the fitment to get wet! The other two on the inside wall are a decent height but here the spray pattern means you have to run round to get wet!

All showers are push button with short run time. Take some gaffer tape to tape the button down.

No motorhome drive over grey waste disposal - it is in a small compound you cannot get close by the bins. Take a bucket to drain into and carry!

Liked: Campsite well organised, pitches are on the small side but was flat.

Disliked: Showers are push button and only stay on 10 to 15 seconds. Block could do with being warmer. Could do with a deep clean especially under the doors.

Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked: The pitches were well spaced and easy to find. The pitch was close to the toilet/shower block which was well heated and clean. The site overall is a good location to host the local area and Cardiff.

Disliked: The pitch required upkeep as quite muddy to get on/off and only just large enough for 7m motor home which made it difficult to reverse off.
No sign of owners/staff at all as ‘shop’ closed whilst there (2 nights) and self check info was sent through though arriving at 2pm.

Local attractions

To the beach – but first, a choice: shall it be nearby Nash Point (10 minutes’ drive) for paddles and dog walks around the lighthouse, or will you rise early for a beachside brekkie at Llantwit Major’s beachside café? Maybe you want to hit the surf at Southerndown (15 minutes); lessons can be had down there for folk who haven’t quite got the knack of standing on a board. Or perhaps you’ll head off to Ogmore (15 minutes) to fulfil that dream of riding a horse on the sands... Choices await castle-seekers too – Castell Coch, Caerphilly Castle and Ogmore Castle are all within 40 minutes’ drive. Dyffryn Gardens is 25 minutes away if you’re more about the outdoors, or you could try the Welsh Hawking Centre (20 minutes) to see the big birds take flight. Should your favourite outdoor view involve a glass of wine, you’re in luck: Llanerch Vineyard and Glyndwr Vineyard are both within a half-hour drive. Speed-seeking sorts (adults and kids over eight) will no doubt want to take to the track at the South Wales Karting Centre: it’s a 10-minute stroll from the site, and with an excellent café to take care of any non-driving companions.
