Date of Visit: May 2015 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Dormerroof 1 review from this member

 Helpful and friendly site. Facilities were spotlessly clean with constant hot water. The stream running alongside the site was picturesque and my 9 year old daughter really enjoyed walking through it with her wellies on. It was shallow, safe and full of wildlife including baby eels and fish. The walks surrounding the site were outstanding again with lots of wildlife, woodpeckers and jays were spotted along with weasel nests. The trees were huge with one which was a natural playground with swings on it. The villages nearby were idyllic. There are many footpaths which are perfect and can be easily accessed from the site. We can't wait to go back, longer next time.

 Charming spot, friendly helpful owner who sorted out our electrical issue very promptly. As mentioned by others toilet facilities are slightly dated but perfectly functional and clean. We hadn't planned to stay here merely stopped in on a whim on our way home. I can see it would be a perfect spot for families with safe areas for the kids to play in the woods all contained within the site, for us (a couple with a slight aversion to kids) we would probably only stay again outside of school holidays/peak times. The road noise was noticeable which was slightly off putting (especially as we'd be spoiled with hardly any noise the 2 nights prior!) but to be expected given the location. Something to consider for light sleepers though.

 First visit to Abermarlais and definitely not the last. An idilic little site, with everything a camper would need. Toilets kept lovely and clean with hot showers whenever required free of charge. Beautiful location with lovely woodland walks around perimeter of site.

Already booked to go again this weekend!

 This was a fairly basic site but in a nice quiet area. Good for walking, although we never got the chance! We stayed in early May and it wasn’t terribly busy, despite it being a bank holiday weekend. The owner was helpful and friendly and didn’t mind us arriving early. The toilet block was clean and of a good size. The shop seemed ok but was only open for about an hour a day, so difficult to catch (not licensed either). Not far from the village of Llangadog, with a few shops and pubs. The site was not very well lit up at night so torches were needed. The river was lovely and the children had lots of fun playing and fishing, but it did get very cold at night. There had been some heavy rain before we arrived and quite a few pitches were waterlogged and roped off. Would probably stay again. Good value. 


Date of Visit: June 2013 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Caravan Jason 3 reviews from this member

 A little gem of a campsite.

We are a family with two boys and this site is one of our favourites. Our boys just love playing around the woods and river, which are both within the boundaries of the campsite. It gives them a chance to be real boys and play like I used to as a child. The river is no more than knee deep and is perfectly safe for children to have adventures.

The facilities are dated but immaculate and very quaint. The toilet block is always warm and the water nice and hot in the showers.

The shop is very basic now due to the owners not able to stock up like they used to but what lovely people. They are looking to retire soon and I just hope that the new owners don't loose the special feeling and atmosphere of this endearing, charming little site.

Date of Visit: March 2013 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Aimeejaid 4 reviews from this member

 Have just spent a lovely Easter weekend at this site. We were greeted by the lovely lady owner on arrival and were told we could pitch wherever we liked!

The site is set in 15 acres and has a lovely riverside walk also hidden in the woods is a tree swing! On site there is a small park with swings and a slide. There is an on site shop selling all sorts including basics like tea and coffee and toys for the children.

The main toilet/shower block was closed for redecorating, this did not bother us. And the toilet that was available was extremely clean. Because the showers were out of use we were charged at a significantly reduced rate which was an added bonus! But would have been more than happy to pay full price as even at full price it is very reasonable.

I would highly recommend this lovely, quiet, tranquil site, we will definitely be returning. 


Date of Visit: September 2012 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Aliwade 4 reviews from this member

 We needed to stay in this area of Carmarthenshire whilst viewing properties for sale, and was unable to contact any Caravan Club CLs (even with 2 days before we left). So, I searched on here and this site seemed to be ideal - location and previous good reviews. I phoned at 6. 30 pm and the owner answered the phone immediately - very friendly and flexible with our arrival time (we wanted to arrive earlier than usual) as it was out of the school holidays.

On arrival the next morning we were greeted by the same friendly owner and had free choice of which pitch to use (there were several sited caravans/motorhomes, but only one other touring unit there). A beautiful green valley site - surrounded by woodland, with the constant presence of the gorgeous river running through it.

Excellent toilet block, water points etc. Yes, they are older, but absolutely immaculate and everything works. I had a shower one morning - and it was hot and good pressure. We decided to stay one more night, as it was such a pleasure to be there.

We had our 2 dogs with us, and we all loved the freedom of walking in the woods and footpaths, both within the site's land and leading away from it.

The only slight negative was the traffic noise and trains - both day and night. Best to be as far away from the front of the site as possible. However, this is literally fronting onto a busy A road, and access is, therefore, very easy - so what do you expect?

The woodland walks, excellent facilities and friendly owner more than makes up for this. I would not go in school holidays, as I can see this is heaven for kids and the number of sited caravans (most not being used whilst we were there) would mean that it would be a very different atmosphere at busy times. Also, extremely cheap - they could easily charge more.

Reviewer: Rhianwelham 1 review from this member

 We stayed here for two nights in our newly purchased large tent, along with family in their motorhome. No problem getting two adjacent electricity pitches. Pitches large, even for our 8 berth tent.

Great children's playground next to a small shop, didn't need to buy anything so can't comment on what it stocks apart from saw an ice cream sign. My 3 year old spent most of the time playing there and made friends with a few other children on the site.

Great location for a river that runs through it, accessible by walking through woods or going around to the little bridge the other end of the main field. We spent lots of time down there paddling with Welles, throwing stones in and sticks, took bucket and spade to play in water. It's lovely and cool over there if the weather is hot.

Toilet block clean, functional, showers roomy enough for me and daughter in together but could have done with a stool inside to sit her on to dress.

Make sure you have a torch to walk to toilets at night, out in the countryside it is very dark at 2am!

Some road noise but we were near the front of the site, if you pitch in main field further away it should be fine. We had earplugs and weren't disturbed.

Site fees very cheap at only £13 a night, for us we thought this brilliant value as we could keep our daughter happy on site and going for a wander around Llandeilo which is only 5 mins in the car. Pretty little town with nice gifts shops, pubs, cafes and ice cream/cake shop. Co-op in the town and also CK's supermarket.

Tried to book for August bank holiday but was full for electric pitches, otherwise we'd be back there tomorrow night!

 We've just booked again to go here for the weekend as we had such a lovely time last summer, there is loads of room and you can park where ever you want. We went with friends who also had a camper van, it says a lot to us as they go to this site two or three times a year and its always the same. Nice and clean, friendly and cheap!

I cant say we noticed the traffic noise but we did stay at the far end of the site.

see you soon guys.

Reviewer: Barmybinky 1 review from this member

 This is a really lovely small site run by lovely people - it is peaceful, with a stream running at the back and plenty of walking to do in the surrounding woods. I took a walk with the kids through the woods and they enjoyed playing in the stream for hours either in wellies or crocs - trying to catch a fish, building walk-ways, poking around with a stick.

There were no problems with noise either at night or in the daytime and this is just what we wanted.

There is a small shop that stocks the basics and the wash-rooms were clean and stocked with tissue etc, plus the added bonus of a proper tap in the shower and no silly tokens or button pushing!

The water in general could do with being hotter though, especially in the bathroom sinks and the washing up area, though it is more than hot enough in the showers.

We had a fair bit of rain and the pitches seemed to drain well except for the bottom left side of the field (pitches 16, 17, 18 & 19 being particularly affected).

It's within easy reach of Llandovery which has some nice pubs, cafes, a launderette and a good sized co-op.

This site is also very well priced in my opinion.

The couple who own this site are very helpful and friendly
