Five days, and never saw a single badger,,,,,

Just back from a 5 night stopover here. The site is very convenient for local access to the city, with quite a few eating and drinking options and a superb ice cream parlour. It took us 30 min to walk to the cathedral, but the Celtic Coaster no.403 mini bus was a better option, stops right outside the entrance and worth the £1.50 (or £3 for all day hop on hop off). The walk down to Whitesands Beach was a bit too traffic heavy. The car park there is way overpriced as are the loos. The Coast Path is in nearby reach, this can take you to the Blue Lagoon and Porthgain , both well worth exploring – these also doable by bus if you do a bit of planning. The site is all grass, we didn’t notice any mowing going off – it was the heatwave after all, and the facilities block closes at 1000 for cleaning which as repeated endlessly is a bit early. Not certain if the disabled unisex one is available as an alternative. Lots of signs amplifying the ‘No Ball Games’ rule. Good. Pity some campers seemed unable to read these. This site is right next door to a commercial one (Lleithyr Farm) and there is some noise at times from here. They don’t seem to do ‘No Ball Games’ btw. However, that site has a really good shop, which the CAMC one hasn’t. Another thing we noticed is that the the recycling and general waste bins were the large industrial ‘Biffa’ type, not dustbins, also you had to trek to near the entrance to dispose of glass items separately. This is a bit like some CCC sites, is the CAMC adopting the same policy one wonders. Oh - didn’t see any Badgers!
