Why stay here ...

Eastern Farm is a small 30 acre working farm situated in the heart of North Gower. The Farm has the advantage of good access roads, and is found before some of the narrower Gower lanes making the towing journey more enjoyable. The CL is just off the main North Gower Road yet sits towards the rear of the property away from the road. Peace and tranquility can be found amongst the beautiful backdrop of Cefyn Bryn with views of Arthur's Stone (an ancient Neolithic burial ground) which can actually be spotted from the pitches.

Gower has an abundance of walking trails and many from the farm, stroll down to Llanrhidian village and walk the marsh road via the footpath across the road or hike upto Arthur's Stone and see if you can spot the Farm amongst the views. A quick drink and a bite to eat at the King Arthur pub will break up your hike perfectly and refuel you for the downward journey home.

Our gravel hardstanding pitches are fully serviced with EHU and water available along with grey waste disposal available on every pitch. Outdoor washing up facilities are available adjacent to our (four toilets) WC facilities, where you will also find the recycling and Elsan chemical waste disposal point.

Days out, are in abundance with Rhossilli and Worms Head among many other local award winning beaches just a short drive away. For something a little different Cwm Ivy is a hidden gem offering wonderful walks through woodland and out onto Whitford Sands where there are miles to explore the untouched beauty.

Lovely CL

Eastern Farm
We arrived the day after we planned due to a terrible weather forecast - the travel instructions given are very good - and easily found our pitch due to the board with our names on. Good sized pitch although the grass surrounding it was extremely wet - obviously due to the awful weather we've been having this summer. Lots of info about the beaches and places to eat which was helpful and the site was situated where it is relatively easy to travel to these places of interest. Just a couple of things stopped this being a 5 star review. 1) The toilets are not exclusive use as stated. There is a very popular farm shop on site so on the days it is open there is a steady stream of visitors using the toilets. This also could sometimes lead to a feeling of not wanting to leave chairs etc on show as lots of people using the toilets popped their heads around to look at the site. 2) Fabulous dog walk - our dogs loved it - but again not exclusive use and although not lots of visitors, there were people who I presume were from the local community walking through the site with their dogs to use the field.

Just perfect!

Eastern Farm
A real gem of a CL. Peaceful, good access, great services on the pitch. We had a little problem with a couple of bed brackets, Adam let us use his vice to sort them out. Natalie was full of recommendations & places to see. The Gower is just lovely for cycling & walking, good walks from the site. There are many CL’s on the peninsular but many would be a nightmare to access due to the lanes on swing into gateways….this one is so easy, directions given ahead of time were spot on & access to the pitches are great too. We hope to visit again soon.

Perfect

Eastern Farm
An absolute gem. The site is very well maintained and pitches are lovely and big. The on site dog field is wonderful, it is completely safe so lots of lovely off lead running. The washrooms are spotless. And the farm shop selling bacon rolls, veg and nice bits and bobs is fantastic. And to top it all off the welcome warm too. We’ll definitely be back. Diolch

Best CL on the Gower

Eastern Farm
Having read previous reviews and looking for a pre-Easter break, we booked 3 nights on Eastern Farm CL just as the season started on 31 Mar 23. The owners, Alex and Natalie, gave us clear route directions off the M4 and along the coast road and it was an easy tow from home to Oldwalls to set up despite the poor weather. The CL is so well designed and equipped that despite my dodgy reversing (sadly, no motor-mover as yet), we were soon all connected on what was in effect a serviced pitch. Woofers Walk field made exercising our Border Terrier easy and safe and the welcome addition of fields of new born lambs made for some heart warming sights and sounds. We are no strangers to the Gower but had not stayed on the Oldwalls side before so it was fun exploring the area, including Weobley Castle with spectacular views over the expansive Loughor Estuary. We took a road trip down memory lane back through Llangennith to Rhossili Bay on Friday evening and the stormy seas and high wind made for a very invigorating but shorter than usual walk. The next few days were more settled and we revisited Port Eynon for Fish & Chips on Saturday and took up Natalie's recommendation to visit the Welcome to Town pub in Llanrhidian for Sunday Lunch. An easy tow home on Monday rounded up a delightful long weekend. We cannot praise Eastern Farm enough and rate it as the best CL we have stayed on in South Wales. Alex and Natalie were the perfect hosts and everything was to the highest standards - including the enterprising Farm Shop with Mario's Ice Cream! No hesitation in recommending them to anyone who wants to visit the Gower - you won't be disappointed!

A brilliant site!

Eastern Farm
We stayed here with friends in late September and had a wonderful 4 night break! Natalie & Alex provided a great, friendly welcome and it was interesting to hear their plans for the site in future. Eastlands Farm is easy to find (very accurate directions) and well placed to explore The Gower. The serviced pitches were fantastic with the EHU, mains water and grey waste readily available on each pitch. The hard standings were limited in space when compared to the overall size of the CL and I know Natalie and Alex are looking to extend these for next season which will be a real plus. There is a brilliant Dog Walk available too which our friends made use of with their GSD. We walked up to Arthur's Seat from the CL using a footpath accessible just up the road from the site. The views from the top of the hill are amazing despite the changeable weather we experienced! Unfortunately the Farm Shop was undergoing renovations when we visited so we cannot comment on this but from the outside it looked to be a lovely facility. We will definitely return when visiting the area in future.
