friends visit.

Lovely, peaceful site with large, secluded pitches, all with water and electric (extra charge) Exclusive use toilet that had a red light on the outside to show when it was occupied so no embarrassing queuing !!! Nicola and Rob were very pleasant and helpful. Easy access, only 5 minutes from M4 J35. Would stay there again.

A beautiful, quiet C.L.

This is our second visit, and once again we loved every second of our stay. Nic and Rob are superb hosts and very welcoming. We have two spaniels and the secluded nature of the individual pitches gave us a quiet personal space where we could all relax in the sun or shade. You are 20/30 minutes from the coast and wonderfully sandy beaches, or just a similar distance from the Black Mountains, with scenery to take your breath away. There is nothing on the down side as far as we were concerned. And we’ll be booking soon for next year.

Recent stay

Stayed on this lovely site for 7 nights from 13.6.23. Wonderful weather required frequent visits to the beautiful coast where it was much cooler! Very peaceful site, each pitch level and separated by means of hedging and opposite a field with horses grazing. The surrounding area has much to offer. Surprised to find that by turning left out of the site we were out on open moorland. Would happily return here. Please note car parking charges on the coast are either for one hour, or for the full day, nothing in between.

A Fantastic Five Days in South Wales

This site is a little gem. It is literally 5 minutes from the M4, but there is little traffic noise and the setting is peaceful and idyllic. The pitches are big and have enough shade that the dogs were happy and enough sun that we were happy. We came up for a cycling event in the Brecon Beacons and I couldn't have found a better base from which to do a bit of last minute training. We managed to get to Ogmore beach for a swim with our two Cooker Spaniels and to explore the local area further inland for a walk or two in the National Park. Nic and Rob the owners were really welcoming, and were always around if needed. We had a really relaxing few days and throughly enjoyed our stay. If you're looking for a quiet spot with easy access to beaches and the Brecons, I would recommend Dryslwyn, we'll be back next year.

What a lovely CL, with welcoming owners!

We only stayed here for one night but wished we'd had longer! The site was very easy to find and access - the directions given were spot on. The site has 2 CL signs so that you know you're at the right place. We are quite a long and wide outfit (8ft wide), and we had plenty of room entering the site and accessing our pitch. The owners were very accommodating, both on the phone and in person, and charged us according to our limited stay on their site, which I thought was very kind and fair. The pitches are very generous in size, they're secluded, peaceful, and have a mixture of shade and sun throughout the day. Every pitch also has a tap, and table and chairs (as well as electric and hardstanding), which is a nice touch and a luxury for us! There are also 2 toilets, and a book swap/information room. The grass on the pitches were well maintained, and the verges around were natural, filled with wild flowers which is nice to see for the environment and wildlife. Bins provided for various recycling, as well as a dog litter bin. Due to our limited stay, we didn't explore a lot, but we got to Barry in about half an hour (visiting friends), and I know there is plenty more to see, so would definitely love to come back here! Thank you!

Nice CL but ask for details when booking or it will cost you

5 pitches with electric & water. Electric is now on meter-no mention of this on website or when we rang to book. We were told on the 2nd afternoon of staying & due a mix up of them changing their supplier, we were told the charge would be £1.32 per kw hr. Toilet is a shed but clean. No other facilities. Cattle grid the other side of the hedge, main road at the top of the hill - some noise. Website says wifi- when we arrived they told us they didn’t have wifi. Field to the side with a falling down shed in it & at least one of the pitches had a long stay van on it.Paid £48 for pitch &£54 for electric 3 days with 1 day electric discount for their error in not telling us.

Fantastic site

Just come back from a 9 days stay. The site was easy to get find and the narrow road was never a problem. The site had lovely large pitches that are divided by mature trees and undergrowth so very private and peaceful. We were there during the heatwave and our pitch always had a good mix of sun and shade (pitch 2). There are 2 toilets on site and always kept clean and tidy.

Relaxing

Just returned home from a wonderful Bank Holiday stay. Ideal site to visit Cardiff Bay, Barry Island, Porthcawl areas of South Wales. Amazingly quiet site with excellent hosts, very easy to find along a short narrow lane. Pitches are very large, 2 x Toilets with sinks (cold water only) were exceptionally clean. We will definitely return.

Dryslwyn Farm

Just returned from a 10 night stay. Easy to get too off the M4. There is a short narrow road to the site, but not a problem. Turning and exiting the site is easy for any size outfit. Pitch sizes are generous, mixture of gravel and grass. Dryslwyn is ideal for visiting Cardiff from nearby Pencoed railway station. Barry Island and Ogmore on sea a short distance away equally the Valleys. Rob and Nicola great hosts, available to help if needed. Will be back.

A wonderful CL.

We stayed for 14 nights and would definitely recommend this CL. Set in a beautiful area, secluded, large pitches,all hardstandings with own water and electric. Lots of nice places to visit whether country or coast. Plenty of shops a short drive away Lidl and Aldi included. Access to site is easy and an added bonus for relatives or friends who do not have a caravan or motorhome is the site also has two large wooden chalets to let.Also each pitch has their own outdoor chairs and table. All in a very pleasant cl to stay on.
