Campsites on the Gower !!!!!!

Post by northantsandy »

Hi everyone
I took kids to Saunton Sands (Devon) last year for a spot of Bodyboarding. Just fancied a change this year. I am taking my three kids and would like people to recommend good sites. I would prefer them to be walking distance from the beach with play areas for the kids. The beach must be pretty good for bodyboarding. I have seen 3 Cliffs Bay but the beach is a bit of a hike. Any recommendations would be very gratefully received.

Many thanks

Try Port Eynon camp site maybe. That has a very nice child safe beach. The other option I can think of is ilangennith, although the actual beach is across the dunes and for surfing, it is a beautiful beach and rhossili is next to it. I have heard that llangennith camp site is good. I am not sure if the is a camp site at Oxwich bay. I haven'ttried any of these as I live in Mumbles.

Best beach is in Gower are often along path.

Hill End Llangennith is the one I meant. Checked with my son and it's where his surf buddies stay in their camper. Nice facilities and right near the beach. Nicholson is very nice, not sure if the PYO is still going. Only issue is that it's a bit of a scramble to the beach if you have little ones.
