Ah right.
Nice enough area, but a fair way down the North Gower roads, which are generally pretty good, though you'll need to be careful in places.

That's my reasoning for suggesting the CC site at Gowerton.
Called in to Pitton Cross (or was it Pitton Green) site down there once - friggin' charlatan mate. Honest.

That's my reasoning for suggesting the CC site at Gowerton. Best of both worlds etc.

Will take all advice but this year is careful year.

Otherwise it will be both May/June and July/August in Cornwall.

100 extra miles on LPG and 3 bottles of wine vs site fees for a few days.

If you're a Caravan Club member, here's a few CLs that we liked the look of, but haven't tried yet, on the south side of Gower.
All three have EHU's, and beautiful sea views.

Ivy Cottage Farm, Nicholaston, SA3 2HL (01792 371268)
Heather Brae, Nicholaston, SA3 2HL (01792 371250)
Perriswood Farm, Nicholaston, SA3 2HN (01792 371661)

All three on page 533 of current Sites Directory & Handbook.

HTH ;) ;) 8-) 8-)

I have camped at Port Eynon a few times, just here in fact:

Very nice, I liked the Gower a lot.

I had an idea to attempt organising an OOF meet on Gower at one time .........

A very good family friend had a field there, and was happy to lend it out to us free of charge too.
Alas, one thing led to another, and nothing came of the idea. Hmmmmm ..........

I also forgot plantasia :y

Yep, and there's LC2, The Mumbles, and even a gentle stroll around this fair city.

Plus Wales' largest indoor market, which is crammed full of the finest local Gower produce.
Mrs Sethsmate always buys some laver bread there for our breakfast. Brilliant when cooked in bacon fat, (and I reckon), the ultimate Gower delicacy!
Starvin Jacks' stall does excellent value food too - lovely hot roast turkey baguettes with stuffing and cranberry - mmmmm!

 :y :y :y :y




Just had some for our tea - lovely grub! ;) ;) ;)

The choice is yours after all.
'Twas unimpressed here. Then there were the (hidden) charges, like awning, electric hook-up, etc etc.

Unimpressed :(
