We were desperate to revisit our favourite site before Tanya and Steven closed for the year, and boy were we glad we did so, though we could only manage two nights there.
Tanya recommended that we try out one of the serviced pitches this time, to take advantage of the sunny forecast, and it was a nice change of view from our usual pitch on the opposite side.
After the long dry summer, the grass was as lush as ever and Steven was busy with the mowing, on his new used 'Ferrari'.
Tanya was, as ever, keeping the pitches absolutely pristine and we had lovely chats with both of them. They are so deserving of having more people to visit to this immaculate site.
Since out last visit, Steven has also created an attractive pond on the far meadow, which will give even more interest once it matures and their woodland walk seemed to be nicer to walk on.
We managed our one bike ride up some long steep hills to Porthyrhyd and enjoyed the subsequent downhills to Llandovery for our drinks in Penygaws cafe in Llandovery, served by very friendly staff.
Having just spent our first time at Abermarlais Caravan and Camping Park we shall be returning.
The reception we received from Tania (The proprietor) was just excellent.
The standard and cleanliness of the site is immaculate this includes, pitches, toilets, reception area and waste disposal.
The grounds including Woodland Walks are all maintained to a very high standard.
All pitches are of an excellent size, some fully serviced, some not. Most pitches are screened with hedges providing privacy against your neighbouring Caravaner, very private and peaceful.
Never in our forty years of caravanning have we seen pitches raked once vacated in preparation for their next client, simply wonderful!
This site deserves more than ten stars and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, and tranquil stay.
It was pleasing to see that they were busy as Tanya and Steven continue to work hard to achieve a wonderful welcome and a pleasant relaxing break for visitors.
After their woodland walk was damaged in the spring storms, Steven has managed to level the ground off to make it more accessible to all and it's a calming stroll in the shade.
We discovered a new walk for us using the public footpaths beyond the site and the stunning countryside opens out to give impressive views over the Welsh mountains.
We managed a hilly cycle ride over to Cilycwm and the wonderful descent down to Llandovery where we visited Penygawse cafe for the best coffee in Wales.
There's so much to list if you do drive off site, with small market towns and beautiful gardens to visit.
And it's always great to get back to Tanya and Steven for a lovely chat with the friendliest hosts we've ever encountered.
Just returned from another visit to this outstanding caravan park. Tania, the owner was so kind & accommodating with me over my health issues & it enabled me to have the revitalising trip I needed.
This site has huge pitches & wonderful ambience. It is tidy, clean & peaceful.
There is so much to do in the local area like beautiful Aberglassney Gardens, Gwilli heritage railway, Talley Abbey, Dwinfyr house, Gold mines & further afield is the Brecons & more.
The local town of Llandeilo has amazing quirky shops too.
Everything we go more improvements have been made

We have just returned from yet another superb stay at Abermarlais Campsite. The owners Tania and Stephen are so welcoming and always spare the time for a chat.
As I have said before, the site is one of the best we have ever stayed on. Every bit of it is immaculate. The driveway has now been re-surfaced, making a very good first impression of the site as you drive in. The lawns are expertly manicured.
The washing up area has also been extended and updated to a very good standard. The toilet/shower blocks themselves are just as good as a 5* hotel. Always clean and smell lovely with very modern décor. We always try to have the same pitch if we can and Tania always tries to accommodate.
To fall asleep to the sound of the flowing stream behind our heads is perfect. It’s an added bonus for the dogs on a warm day too. Straight out of the car to cool off in the stream.
You access the dog walking area or woodland from two wooden bridges either end of the park & there is a poo bin at both points. Once over the bridge, there is a stunning meadow for the dogs to run ‘off lead’ in and up into the woodland area. Obviously, dogs ‘on lead’ around the site.
Wales has now implemented new compulsory ruling with regards to recycling and Tania makes sure this is adhered to or she will receive a fine herself. This didn’t pose a problem for us at all. The site has a small shop at reception selling local produce and essentials, along with gas if needed.
The site has also installed new electric metres on each pitch, with a card being given on arrival and you topping up what you think you may need. Again, this didn’t pose a problem and was fairly straight forward.
Any unused electric is refunded at the end of your visit. We chose to put ours in the air ambulance collection box. We are so looking forward to booking our next trip here. Thanks again to Tania and Steven.
Few tips of places to visit:
Hafren Forest – although a good hour away from site, is one of the most idyllic places we have been to. It certainly is a hidden gem. Pine trees, boardwalks, streams, waterfalls. The dogs loved it.
Penllergare Valley Woods – Charity and Volunteer run woodland. Again, with streams, good walks and waterfall. Lovely little café too.
Pen Y Fan – 886 Metres above sea level walk. Bit of a climb, but worth it on a good day for the views at the top. Brecon Beacons National Park.
4 Waterfalls Walk
Llyn Y Fan Fach – Reservoir Walk in the Black Mountains
Cenarth Falls – Quaint little village/waterfall and short circular loop walk. Had the most wonderful Tea Room offering superb Afternoon Teas for both ladies and gentlemen, depending on your taste buds. Abundance to choose from and very good value for money. Also, about an hours drive from site.
Usk Reservoir Walk – Circular walk around the reservoir. Roughly about 8. 6 km. Quite an easy flat route, accessible for all.
The site was immaculate, well mown grass areas and generous pitches. Ours was hardstanding and difficult to get heavy duty pegs in.
The introduction about the site was extensive regarding metered EHU and recycling. Luckily I managed to remember the meter instructions and was familiar with recycling.
Dogs to be on leads at all times, but not always followed, and OH was asked to not walk dogs on the gravel roads, as if they poo-ed gravel would be picked up in the poo bag.
The Ladies was clean, didn't use shower as prefer own facilities. There was no full length mirror or hairdryer and the disinfectant smell was not pleasant.
Pot wash area was clean and tidy, but the water luke warm. Didn't find laundry sink for doing 'smalls', ? could have used washing up sink but with only lukewarm water.
Site easy to find from both directions, there is a Coax lead for TV reception included, but we didn't need it. The site is surrounded by trees and is peaceful.
The pitches were absolutely flat and kept perfect.
The fully serviced pitch facility is great.
The amenity's were spotless.
Also it was a perfect site for dog owners because of the lovely walks. via mobile
