 Good site with views however I wasn't overly impressed with the new bathroom showers. Temperature was inconsistent and my wife struggled with the flow as it kept dropping to nothing then too hot then too cold. Difficult to shower kids when the temperature and flow fluctuates so much. Seemed strange to close gents at 7. 30am for cleaning which lead to queues for the bathrooms.
Access road is narrow and difficult if you meet a tourer: as we left another caravan was arriving and we had to reverse down narrow winding lane.
Shop is useful and seemed to have everything, even dog leads as we left ours at home! Nice touch that we could leave the caravan in the car park so make the most of our leaving day. To be honest I am not sure if we will return to this site.

We have just returned from a relaxing stay at the campsite. Access to it is via a tight turn and narrow road which some large motorhome owners might find daunting especially as cars speed up the hill near the site access.
The reception area also has a shop that is very well equipped with fresh and frozen food. Cakes and bread can be bought and milk and cheese and yogurts. There is a coffee area. Pies can be heated free of charge using a microwave at point of sale. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.
They will book taxis for you. Access to pubs in the area is not easy if you don't have access to a car and don't want to unhitch your motorhome or camper each night. We hired a taxi. £24 for a return trip for 4 people to the King Arthur pub. The lane to the camping fields has high hedges and is narrow. Pedestrians are asked to walk up the field to avoid vehicles using the road.
There is a flat field with no view and is used by a mix of campers but mostly tents and small camper vans. The hard standing pitches, some with electric are on the other side. Here there is a demarcation between camper vans on one area and motor homes and caravans on the other. We found this frustrating as we were holidaying with friends with a motorhome and we were is the camper.
We were not allowed to pitch near one another and had to walk in the rain carrying food and drink between the two. Yet while we were there they allowed a motorhome to park next to us in the campervan area! The flat hard standing pitches with sea views are in the motorhome caravan area so do not expect to get a sea view on the flat if you are in a campervan. You pay the same whether you are in a campervan or a motorhome mind you. The wash rooms are old and modern.
The old ones are very clean with plenty of toilet paper but the hand drier is pathetically inefficient like so many on campsites. The modern ones are superb. There are 8 proper shower rooms with underfloor heating, electronic controlled hot ample showers, wash basin and toilet. A real joy. Hair drier provided in the common access area off the shower rooms.
Washing up facilities are ok.
Grey water is disposed of in front off the bathrooms, would be better somewhere else. Can't speak of chemical toilet disposal as we don't have one.
The site is kept immaculate by uniformed staff, the only downside to that is hours of listening to grass being mown or hedges being trimmed.
There is a good walk down the bridle path that takes 15 minutes to get to the heritage centre where there is a cafe. The same road would also take you to the next pub, the Gower Inn. But the roads in the area are narrow, hilly and cars do drive quick quickly and based on smashed plastic bits on the road, collisions do happen. I would not like to walk on the roads.
The site does have a lovely sea view of the bay and it is a fairly short but sloping walk to the beach. No swimming allowed though as big undercurrents. Oxwich bay is better for children but you would need a car or taxi.
There is one small cafe and one expensive restaurant on the sea front at Oxwich. Port Enyon has more facilities and the seaside is ok on the LHS of the sea front a bit more muddy on the RHS.

Fabulous site - immaculately clean at all times, incredibly helpful staff, great facilities, brilliant location.
Be aware it's a trek down to the beach and there are no facilities there so you need to take everything with you - but that's why it's so quite and beautiful!
The only slight negative comment I have (and I'm struggling here) is that the hot water in the washing up facilities isn't really hot enough to clean greasy dishes, but hardly a major problem.
Would highly recommend and hope to go back soon.

As others have said this site has some amazing views of the Bristol Chanel. Owners are very friendly and obliging.
For the Cliff top views with a tent it would have to be in perfect weather as it is rather exposed, also not a lot of flat areas.
We camped in the large field with nice clean cut grass, below the amenities which was more sheltered, but again ground is slopping. Amenities I felt were way over the top and in a class of there own, with heated floors all absolutely pristine spotless, hence the price of a pitch for the night, one of the most expensive we found travelling the UK.

Amazing! staff welcoming & helpful, site toilets/showers best I've seen and all spotless, shop really well stocked and reasonably priced and best of all a view to die for!
Walk down to three cliffs bay from site, it's a bit of a slog back up but I think it's worth it, our 6 year old managed it without too much complaining, took about 10-15mins down and 15-20 mins back up!
Only slight negative VW campervans can't go on the cliff top with the sea view because of rules by the national park - nothing to do with the site.
Definitely be back!

First the good points:
If you get one of the cliffside hard standing pitches the view is spectacular (although it comes with the obvious wind risk)
Half of the facilities block is superb with 8 self contained toilet/shower/basin rooms; the other half are average standard.
The bad points:
The access to the site is extremely narrow for caravans.
The site does not have marked pitches apart from the hard standing at both edges of the cliff field and during our visit the placement of other units around the field was very chaotic and tightly packed.
The shop on site was Ok with the usual limited supply of groceries and a 'coffee shop' facility, the wi fi was poor.
In general I thought that the site was overpriced for the facilities.

Really enjoyed our 3 nights here. We got a pitch at the top of the cliff with side views to the ocean. Amazing. We were watching the full moon appearing gorgeously above the cliffs.
Don't think there is much to add to what hasn't already been said. Clean toilets and wash up area, family bathrooms, friendly wardens. Camping on a slope is an interesting experience as everything keeps trying to slide off tables, stove, mattresses (that would be us).
Had a fab time. Would recommend

Stayed for 2 nights with hook up there's a very narrow lane from reception to site with hedges both sides in places quite tight had to pull a rear view mirrors in, you then arrive at site & warden directs you to your pitch. Very friendly, welcoming with a good sense of humour, luckily we were shown to a pitch over looking the bay (grass standing but fairly level) (Did need to use leveling wedges) The site was quite water logged due to torrential downpours over the last few days. The Facilities were very clean especially to say how boggy the site was. There are family bathrooms which we did not use so cannot comment. The only thing was the shower cubicles were a little on the small side & you had to dress in the wet area. Good stocked shop. Lovely views from the site. Walk down to bay starts off OK tarmac road but then turns very rocky & steep in places so care has to be taken.
Pleased we stayed.

We stayed here for four nights after seeing a picture of the Three Cliffs Bay in one of the caravan magazines. The location is superb - fantastic views from the site across the bay. Lots of walks from the site along the cliff tops. You can access the lovely beach but it is a quite tricky path - stony, uneven and steep but worth it at the end. People were struggling with buggies. Site itself is very clean with a fab new set of family bathrooms - about 8 I think with shower, basin and toilet as well as the normal toilet and shower blocks. Good pot washing too. Shop sold a few bits and pieces of food and beach equipment. All the staff very friendly. We were lucky to arrive when there was a pitch free overlooking the cliff - as soon as any of these ever came free, people took the opportunity to move! Where we pitched was relatively flat but a lot of the site is on a slop and one of the tent fields is REALLY steep - I don't know how they didn't all end up in a pile at the end of a night! There was another field for tents much flatter but without the views. Not much within walking distance other than cliff walks and the beach and the pub was supposed to be 10 min walk away but was at least 30 mins down another quite uneven path (but a pleasant walk). Wifi was a bit hit and miss. All in all a fab location with super views. All staff very friendly

Stayed for 2 nights with hook up. Upon arrival wardens direct you to your pitch. Very friendly, welcoming with a fun sense of humour ( which helped us along as we arrived in the rain!) needed chocks for our pitch. Facilities are wonderful. Lots of family bathrooms which everyone can use enabling you space and privacy. The best shower facilities during our tour around Wales. Good stocked shop. Pub called the gower inn is within walking distance but it's a mixture of walking paths, road walking and navigating to find it. We walked to oxwich bay which was nice. Lovely views from the site. Pleased we stayed.

Wow this campsite is amazing. Since we last visited the improvments are great. The best bathrooms I have ever known on a campsite. The washing up facilities are very good and the shop is now larger and stocks lots of local produce, they will order papers for you and free wifi is available on site. You cannot book a pitch overlooking the beach so if they are all taken be patient the wardens will place you on a list and will move you when one becomes free. The wardens are all helpful we needed a longer extension lead and one was produced promoto! The walk to the beach is steep, worse on the way back. But we are in our 70's and managed it most days, it's dog friendly all year and never that busy due to no vechicle access. Mumbles is a good place for lunch, Verdies we enjoyed and there is a lovely deli the local cheeses are excellent.

Great location, fabulous views of the beach with the tide coming in etc. Very friendly staff directing us to the appropriate pitch for our camper van. Stayed here 4 times in the past and will come again. The facilities are very clean and the shop is handy. Great walks to other beaches. The walk to the hotel at Oxwich bay is stunning and lunch is great when you get there.

After 2 years we returned. We weren't disappointed as the site was better than ever. New shower/toilet blocks are lovely and kept very clean. New reception offered hit drinks and the essentials. Also some wonderful paintings on sale by a local artist. Plenty of wonderful walks and beautiful beaches. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a grass pitch overlooking the beach as no hardstandings left but this was not a problem. Can thoroughly recommend to anyone. The area is truly stunning.

?? looked for for a campsite nr 3cliffs, read it closed 1st october, tried the next one down the road, they wanted a extra £3. 00 for extra car but they were closed anyway, looked in a ccc book to find 3cliffs were open, booked it for 2 nights(fri/sat)we had a clifftop pitch with elec, fantastic views over the bay. Bit wet/wild & windy fri night. The site was clean & tidy with ample toilets & showers, although the ladies shower wasn't really warm as much as the dish washing water. The rubbish etc was a walk up the way in behind the reception with only barbie bins by the toilet??. I'm not critisizeing the site at all I'd go again although at £26 p/n inc elec was a bit costly for the end of the season but average for the area I asume. Not sure if ther might have been a bus service outside the gate, if I went to the gower for longer I'd tow my car behind the motorhome.

Stayed for a week at this lovely site with the most amazing view! The staff were very welcoming, polite and helpful. The showers and toilets were well kept and clean (showers were a bit weak though)also family shower room-very useful after day at beach. The site itself was well kept and tidy. Plot sizes were generous and there was ample room for kids to play bat and ball games. We were put in the back field (no sea view)with the vast majority of families and all was quiet by a reasonable time. Warden was a visible presence at all times. Shop sold essentials such as milk and also some luxuries. The beach was a bit of a trek with little kids but well worth the time and energy - beautiful beach. Perfect for kids with rock pools, rocks to climb, loads of sand for cricket, gentle surf, caves to explore, river to paddle etc etc. Great walks from campsite to Pobbles beach, Castle ruins - we didn't use the car for 3 days. Would highly recommend this campsite - we will be back!
