Gower’s earliest castles were constructs of earth and timber, built upon the steepest aspects of hills and coastal promontories. There, the natural geogaphy of the land often provided as much of a defence to villages as the fortifications themselves.
Most remains of Gower’s Iron Age Hillforts date from around the 6th Century A.D. and evidence of their quite large scale can still be easily traced in the numerous mounds and ditches on many of the peninsula’s larger hilltops.

Lovely site. Friendly welcoming staff. Fields and facilities well maintained. Beautiful beaches within short drive. Dog walking enclosed field right on site. Really great licensed cafe and well-stocked shop. Large shower and toilet blocks very clean. Washing up/sink room very spacious and had washing machine and tumble dryer. There was also a large chest freezer dedicated to freezer blocks. Nearest grocery store about 10 minutes drive but on site shop has essentials food and drink and some camping supplies. Highly recommended site we will stay again.

Super friendly, clean and a well appointed campsite. We were initially disappointed we could not get in at the more well known campsite on the beach. Well what a happy little accident we didn't. Dog friendly meaning we will be back with the dog next summer. Electric hook-up was cheaper than other places without electric. The café on site was cheaper than other equivalent sites and the shop was well appointed and did not take advantage of the captive audience.
Cute 10min drive to the beach, great waves and no commercialisation on the beach, reasonable car park prices for the day.
