Why stay here ...
The photographs show our CL site and its proximity to the sea, cliffs and beach that is 700m away by footpath. A short walk through our adjacent field, over the stile takes you onto the Welsh Coastal Footpath. Our CL is possibly the closest to the sea on Gower and has magnificent uninterrupted views over the Bristol Channel to North Devon. Lundy and Cornwall. The CL is surrounded by mature hedges and we live close by at the top of the field. The National Trust owns the bulk of the cliff, beaches and headland as well as common land on Rhossili Down and all are freely accessible to walkers. Rhossili village is 10 to 15 minute walk where there is The Worms Head Hotel, NT Centre and Car Park (free to NT Members), cafe', craft shop and St Mary's Church. The nearest shops are one mile and two miles the other way.
Many of our visitors have been coming for years and we have a lot of repeat bookings. They value the tranquillity of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, views, bird life, beaches, unspoilt landscapes and the ability to walk miles on the network of footpaths. A service bus passes the entrance to Swansea and other parts of Gower. The site is on a slight slope but 3 pitches are level and the other 2 nearly so.
Electricity and water are close to hand. In case of any traction difficulty in wetter weather we have a Land Rover on hand to assist if required. Entrance off the main road is adequate for the smaller and medium sized vans, larger vans up to 7.5 metre can manage with care. Swing out onto the opposite side as you turn in coming from Swansea direction with bigger units. Sorry but twin axle caravans and the very large motor homes will not manage the entrance. This site has operated since the 1960's and we have owned it since 1978. We are camper van owners who have travelled extensively in the UK and Western Europe and appreciate Members requirements. We are on hand, helpful and practical people who can deal with most problems that may occur. Note that breathable ground sheets only must be used in awnings. One or two dogs acceptable if kept on leads and under control but any more are at our discretion. Advise in advance.

Absolute gem of a site. Fabulous location for a wide variety of walks. Beautiful coves it swim in. Bus stop outside site. Welsh cakes on sale outside a locals home, which we treated ourselves every day! Lovely and cool up on the downs. Amazing hosts who made us very welcome, and told us all the history of the area. Will definitely return.

Great site
Mewslade View
This is a brilliant site with fantastic views to the hilltops and sea,we were at the bottom of the field and had plenty of room to put our sun canopy up but the higher you get it’s harder to put an awning up even though the caravan pitch was level the ground was on an incline after.Excellent for smaller motor homes.The access to the site is tight to say the least and comes up on you very quick when approaching.Very close to Rhosilli bay and the “worms head” and what breathtaking views.Will hopefully return.

Fantastic Easter break
Mewslade View
Followed route directions on the site page which lead us straight there. (Be carful it’s easy to go past it)
Gordon greeted us and as it was a bit wet he used his Land Rover to pitch us.. (needed levelling blocks)
Set up and water was stones throw away(pitch 3)
Walked just outside to the beach( tidal so be aware of times) lovely clean beach and water.
Views from the site are amazing.
Walked to Rhossilli with the dog( 12-15 mins. (Easy walk)
Got a bus back(got lucky with the time)
Stayed 3 nights the stars in the sky were breathtaking
Dodged the rain. Last day to take awning down. Gordon was there again to tow is up… wouldn’t have made it without him.
Anyway. Well recommended site and will soon be booking in for a summer weekend
Great location
Mewslade View
This CL is in a great location. You can walk directly from the site on to the coastal path and, whilst it is a bit of a scramble, down to the beautiful beach. It is a great spot for dog walkers.
Do follow the guidance for access to the site. It is a bit tight! Do not attempt it with a large unit. The site itself, though, is very spacious, although sloping, and a relaxing place to be. There are two water points and other utilities at the top of the field. This does need a bit of tidying up, though, and there is a leak at the toilet emptying point.
Overall, it is a great spot and we will return.

Wow
Mewslade View
What a marvelous place. On our way back home we only could stay 2 nights. But we enjoyed double. Sitting outside with a nice view, walks with the dog, chatting with the owner, eating the home made welsh cakes and jam ( sold around the corner) , walking to Rossili and descending to the beach, swimming in our own quiet beach ( for Dutch people with a rather steep entrance). Nothing more to wish.
