Non-electric grass and earth tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: Arrived on Saturday, located within the amazing Afan forest park picked our pitch overlooking fantastic scenery of Welsh mountains.. a view you simply usually have to travel far and wide for and its on our doorstep. Campsite is kept clean and didn't appear to have any rowdy campers was like a little community. Facilities are good and well maintained...can't wait for our next visit for bar and pizza pod to open. Genna , Rob and staff were all amazing and welcoming and clearly work hard, staying in a cabin in November and will be dining out in one of the domes ... highly recommend this lovely , reasonably priced site ☺️☺️☺️

Disliked: Nothing

Local attractions

If you need a little bit of relaxing time to recover from all the activities at the forest park, how about a trip to the beach? It’ll take you about 25 minutes to drive to Aberavon beach or around 40 minutes to Ogmore-by-Sea, where you can also stop by at the castle. That said, there’s still scope for activity down at the coast: Ogmore has horse riding outings, while Rest Bay (half an hour’s drive) is well known for surfing and bodyboarding. Keen to keep the adventures coming? How about ziplining from a former colliery tower at Zip World Tower (35 minutes), tackling the trails of Bike Park Wales (45 minutes) or walking behind a curtain of water on the Four Waterfalls Walk (45 minutes)? After all that you might just need a little tot of whisky from the Penderyn Distillery Visitor Centre (35 minutes), or perhaps just a leisurely walk along one of the beaches of the Gower Peninsula (45 minutes).
