 Took my two kids for a weekend to this site. Luckily we were in the field furthest away from the road so it was quiet. Excellent beach, only about 70 people at midday. Could probably do with some more showers, although the queues weren't too bad.

I read some other reviews saying that the owners were hot on noisy people - a group of girls pitched next to us late on Saturday afternoon and were playing music ( not loudly ) when the owners came and asked them to turn it down!

Trek from the beach back up to the campsite was a bit of a climb, but would definitely go back.

 Fab. Great shower block. Shop which as well as the usual camping 'food' also sold farm picked strawberries. Great family orientated atmosphere in the evening but all quietened down by 11-11.30. Owner on gate duty and saw him turn away one set of 'lads' which probably is what helped the atmosphere. Great views from top of field (until someone pitched in front of us). Not too many flat pitches and it got very full on the Saturday night. Good beach in walking distance but its a long old uphill walk back and there's nothing at the beach except sand and sea so might not be for everyone. Drive a couple of miles to the other end of the beach and there's a cafe, toilet etc but be aware what took 10 mins on a Saturday morning took nearly an hour on Sunday to get into car park. We only stayed two nights but will be going back.

 This was my families first camping expedition and what a start. The facilities are great, though busy at peak times. The toilets are very clean though another block in the western field might not be a bad plan. It is relaxed and those who like peace and quiet after 9pm may not best pleased as it is a popular site. The slope of the field did lead to much amusement on the first night as my wife and I slid down to the end of the inner tent, but by the second night this wasn't an issue. Access to the beach is a good stretch of the legs but well worth it. We enjoyed it and will return, hopefully this year.

On the plus side; great view of the sea, informal (unmarked pitches), good farm shop with fresh fruit and fruit smoothies, lovely walk down to the sea and great beach, well placed for exploring the Gower, the loos were really clean (cubicles with loo, sink and shower).

On the down side; we got put in the main field (behind the shop) where the only flat pitch was near the hedge at the back, our heads were 10 feet from the road. Now, this isn't the M25 and there was very little traffic at night, but it did spoil an otherwise tranquil setting. Could have done with some more loos as there were often people in them showering. Would have been nice to have a tap in the field - take a big container with you.

We have been to this site many times and have found it one of the friendliest sites we have stayed at.

The sloping fields and the hike through the woods to the beach may not be to everyone's tastes or abilities but these are more than compensated by the lovely setting and the warmth of welcome from the Beynon family.

Our children come here every year and they never tire of it. There are no silly or petty rules. There is no need for petty rules because the campers are treated wirh respect and they in turn respect the facilities and the other campers. Where problems have arisen ( V rare) they have been dealt with swiftly and tactfully by the owners.

A beautiful part of the country - except I really don't want any more people knowing about it or we won't get in !!!

Wow - I have been to the Gower since I was 19 but always to llangenith, this year we decided to spend two days at Nicholaston Farm, We should have booked , they are very popular.

The first day we walked down to the beach was ...... Wonderful splendid Wow. We had the beach to ourselves and if you want pictures Email me. We had a wonderful time and stayed 4 weeks.

Also known as Beynons farm ( remember if asking locals as thats what its known as!) this site is basic but offers good no frills camping and caravanning.
Where possible all caravans are together on one field and tents in the other three. There are several hook up pitches for tents however these are on a quite steeply sloping field so if you can manage without hook up that may be wise and stay on a more level pitch on one of the other tent fields.
Loo blocks are small but well appointed but could get very busy in high season and possibly would not cope with demand!There are only two washing up sinks ( both indoors) which are very good quality but again in high season, expect a queue. One plus point is that the showers and washing up water is always lovely and hot. Showers are coin operated ( 20p for 3 mins) but this seems to be to deter beach vistors from using the facilities for free in high season. When we visited there was no need to use a 20p piece.
Beyons farm is a pick your own fruit farm and the prices are very reasonable the shop also offers ices and a full range of vegetables all reasonably priced. Sadly they dont offer bread, milk or other essentials which we thought was a shame.The nearest shop is at Knelston garage a 5 minute drive away.
One huge plus point to this site are the free industrial sized fridges and freezer available for campers use. situated at the rear of the shop all are welcome to leave their shopping in them, labelled and these can be acessed day and night. Had we known that these existed Id have left the hook up at home.

The walk to the beach takes around 10 minutes but is well worth it, take everything you need with you though! The climb back up to the site is quite steep and its a long way if you forget anything! It isnt suitable for pushchairs or people with mobility difficulties either.The dunes and woods are great for exploring with your children though!
Were looking forward to a return visit in the future

Beautiful situation overlooking bay. The site is not level and this made for uncomfortable nights as we slid down the tent! Toilets and showers immaculate but a longish walk from our field. The beach is wonderful - not for the infirm or pushchairs - it's a steep walk down and even steeper back - not sensible to try and carry lots of stuff or to 'pop back' for anything you've forgotten - and no facilities like loos down there. Farm shop selling lovely fruit and veg and pick your own also available.

Good campsite - clean and well spaced out and quiet. Beach is fantastic and almost empty even in August. Beware the walk to and from the beach if you have little children and lots of gear! It is extremely steep and just when you think you are at the beach, you have some very large sand dunes to get over, which are a killer on a hot summer day! Beach is great when you get there, but be prepared to go for the day as you do not want to 'pop back' for things - no facilities at the beach like toilets etc.

The people at the campsite are extremely friendly and helpful and I can't fault their service

Open fields with no marked pitches, 1 field with single point hook ups around perimeter effectively determined the layout, 2 additional fields without hookups mainly used by tents, quite a slope on the camping fields, no levelled or hardstanding pitches. Pitches all open, not screened from each other but this meant everybody had the fantastic views of Oxwich Bay. No formal play area but plenty of room for games in centre of fields. Brand new facility blocks.
Pitch fees £13 pn inc hookup (Aug 03), 20p for showers.
Probably the closest site to the beach in that part of the Gower although still quite a steep walk back up, but worth it. Farm shop for fruit, sweets, sandwiches but no milk bread or meat.
Best meat go into Kiwelly. No pubs in walking distance but worth a five minute drive the best eating out is at the King Arthur Hotel in Reynoldsen, superb food and service, don't bother with the Gower Inn.

An excellent campsite. Two fields for tents with plenty of space and no set pitches, so you can camp where you want to. Good facilities - showers, hairdryers, toilets, washing-up facilities all clean, tidy, modern and well maintained. And what a beach!! Absolutely stunning, very quiet even in the middle of the school holidays, and less than a 10 minute walk from the campsite. 


Reviewer: Sam Curtis

We were recommended this site by a friend and it was very good. On a working farm (with pick-your-own fruit farm as well) it has one big field for caravans and another for tents. Not the flattest but not bad. Nice new shower block in the farmyard has shower rooms with shower, basin and toilet in - perfect if you have little kids you need to keep an eye on. It is a 5 minute walk down through the woods to the beach, from where it is a half hour walk along to the Oxwich bay hotel (food recommended).
Good for families.
