Open grassy space for non-electric pitches

Well-maintained family-friendly site five mins' drive from Porthcawl
Rest Bay beach five minutes' drive; 10 minutes to Margam Country Park
Play area and plenty of space for games; bus stop just outside

Fancy pitching up near Porthcawl? A fine collection of beaches makes this popular seaside town a great choice for a break on the Glamorgan coast – and Dan-y-Graig Holiday Park, a few minutes’ drive from the town centre, is an equally excellent pick. This well-established family-run park doesn’t have tons of bright lights and noisy entertainments on site – instead the owners have chosen to focus on getting the essentials just right. That means you’ll have access to a launderette, a washing-up room and a chemical toilet waste disposal point as well as modern bathrooms with accessible facilities for disabled guests. That’s not to say that there's nothing for kids to do here – there’s a play area in the touring field (handy for keeping an eye on them while you get on with your life…) and plenty of grassy areas for games. Through the busier periods there are often activities to join in with, too – things like an Easter egg hunt and a summer sports day are popular. You’ll be well located for getting out and about here too – either heading to one of the nearby beaches, exploring the local countryside or hitting the outlet shops to pick up some bargains. It’s all within a short drive, and there's also a bus stop just outside for those travelling on public transport. All round, this is a pretty laidback place to spend some time; groups, dogs, families and solo travellers are all equally welcome at this friendly site. Perhaps the best testimony of all is the fact that many guests return year after year, sometimes forming lasting friendships along the way.

Powered grass campsite

Liked: Handy location and Sarah was lovely

Disliked: Pitches really close together, someone digging and hammering a fence till after 10pm
Only one gents toilet was in use, seemed very disjointed

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Camper,

Thank you for visiting our campsite. I’m sorry that your time spent with us didn’t meet your expectations and we’ll work hard to improve on the points you raise.

In mitigation I might add that it was our opening weekend of the season which did make things very busy which probably contributed to the noise of some returning campers setting up their permanent pitches and the lack of space you felt. I will improve upon this next season.

In contrast we did have a fellow pitch-up visitor yesterday say that they enjoyed their visit and liked the site so much that they wish to reserve a permanent pitch.

All the best for your next camping adventure and hope you get to visit Disneyland soon! Kind regards Sarah

Local attractions

To the seaside first, perhaps? Porthcawl has a good range of beaches to choose from, whether you’d like to hit the waves at Rest Bay for surfing and paddleboarding, build sandcastles at Sandy Bay beach or Newton beach, or launch windsurfers from Trecco Bay. All are just a few minutes’ drive or bike ride away. Elsewhere along the nearby coast, you can scramble through the huge dunes at Merthyr Mawr (10 minutes’ drive), ride horses along the sands at Ogmore-by-Sea (20 minutes) or look out for fossils on the rocky beach at Llantwit Major (half an hour). And of course one can’t forget Porthcawl’s famed Elvis Festival, paying tribute to ‘the king’ every September. Heading inland instead, Margam Country Park (10 minutes) has extensive grounds to stroll through, as well as a small farm area with animals to pet or feed, including alpacas. There's plenty of space to ride your two wheels at Margam, all while being careful not to disrupt the wild deer roaming the park, of course. The country park also packs in an adventure playground and a Go Ape centre for more adventurous folks. Nearby, there are discount shops, a cinema and several restaurants at Designer Outlet Bridgend (10 minutes).
