Nice site and very well run
Gowerton Club Campsite
The site is run very well and I cannot fault the staff. Everything was very clean and well serviced. Grounds kept well and there is a great dog walk and very large park behind the site.
The location is not ideal and to be honest I probably would not stay again. The beaches are great and it was wonderful being able to take the dog on the beach with the exception of Swansea beach. Another big negative for me was the 20 mph speed limits that seemed to be overly excessive on every journey.
Rhosilli was great, Three cliffs bay too but very steep to get down to it. Mumbles worth was a visit and had a charm about it, Port Eynon too although there were limits for dogs on the beach which is fair enough.
Nice Site but location is Pretty Limited
Gowerton Club Campsite
When we first arrived we were lucky enough to get a pitch next to our son, so we set up and were happy with our lot. Bearing in mind the last 3 or 4 sites we have used have been private and we had forgotten the bizarre club rules with regard to wind breaks. So within 15 minutes we were informed that we had to move our wind breaks as they were against club rules….. not the wardens fault just very difficult to understand …The site itself is nice, good sized level pitches, electric works well. Showers and toilets clean although I would imagine it would struggle if the site was busy as there were only 4 male showers….. wardens were great. There are 2 great dog walks if you are happy not to go far, one inside the camp which is much bigger than normal, then you have a key to a gate which lets you access a playing field at the back which is huge. So if you are happy not going too far this is ideal. However if you like doing longer dog walks the location is not great, to get onto the West coast path you either have to walk on or by very busy roads which is fine if your dogs are OK with Lorrie’s etc but one of ours isn’t. You really need a car or camper to access the best parts of the area as the buses are next to useless as the roads are so bad, I would not bother with going to the Mumbles as it is a building site, they are replacing the sea barriers. Rosihli beach is stunning and a must if you come here, but it’s a 40 minute drive, the Welsh footpaths are terrible, many are unusable ( not the first time..), not much in Gowerton. The other thing that irritates me with club sites is this nonsense of putting the bins at the furthest point away from everyone, what was wrong with someone wizzing around in the buggy picking the rubbish up in the morning? Not sure how the old or those less mobile cope with a 1/2 mile walk to the bins…… In summary the site is nice but the location requires your own transport.
2nd Time back....
Gowerton Club Campsite....and we will return next year. We came to Gowerton last year for the first time and loved it. So much so that we returned this year and loved it even more. It's a great hub for getting anywhere easily in the Gower. As with most CAMC sites, the site kept extremely well. We only ever book hardstanding pitches and these are again, kept extremely well. Very flat and hardly any need for levelling. I cannot comment on the grass pitches as we don't use them. And besides, while we were there this year, they couldn't hire out the grass pitches due to the grass being too soft after this year's excessive rain fall. Just one little negative, and that is that the site could do with more than the current one washing machine and dryer. The site managers - Nick & Debbie, Mick & Rachel are amazing. So pleasant and helpful, and can't do enough for you. As I said previously, we will be back next year, and do so really hope that these guys are still managing the site. Thanks guys. Look forward to seeing you next year.
Top Job
Gowerton Club Campsite
Only booked for a few days, that was my only mistake. Absolutely everything was just right even to be given a key for a back gate to make the walk to the village shop shorter, the staff couldn’t be more helpful can only say 5 stars.

Another brilliant stay
Gowerton Club Campsite
Having booked for 5 days and glorious weather expected over last weekend we decided to ask for 2 more days. Even though the site was very busy all four wardens went out of their way to allow us to stay. The site itself is excellent and very well run. The places to visit nearby enable you to visit the beach, walk in the woods or relax in the sand dunes. Goweton is a delight to both stay and explore the surrounding countryside.
