Fantastic Location in the grounds of a country house

This site is so easy to get to as it is just off the M4, and is very well signposted. The site is tucked away in the corner of a country estate, which is accessible to the site users at all times. Fantastic walks around the lake with our dog at the crack of dawn, during the day and as night was falling. The wardens were efficient and focused more on cleaning than greeting. The showers were warm and there were plenty of service points. There is some noise from the A48, but the birds cover that well. Pitch near the lake so that you are furthest from the road.

Not what we expected

Just returned from a week at the site. We booked a service pitch (Number 3) to make life easier, and with water etc nearby it was as expected. However this particular pitch was in a terrible state. Lots of the gravel had disappeared, so there was a lot of mud on the pitch. It was not possible to park the car on the offside of the van as the edge of the pitch was very muddy so you would always be bringing mud into the van. Similar pitches seemed in a poor state as well. NOT good value for money. The television reception was virtually non existent. We were constantly retuning the set even though we have a tall external aerial. The internal caravan aerial just did not function. Wardens said it was 'patchy'. Did not try Wi Fi but expect it was the same. There was a notice in the toilet block saying it was to be re-furbished in October. Is this just the block or the whole site? Certainly a bag of gravel could easily be put on pitch 3 immediately at little cost. We knew there were bad road works at Junction 28, but did not expect the shambles it appears to be. It is an absolute nightmare trying to navigate around them with or without a caravan. BEWARE! You can use the route through the estate but the exit to the A48 is equally horrific. Found wardens very helpful, and generally doing a good job, but it will be a very long time before we return.

Lovely site but some noise at night

Stayed for 3 nights and found the site, clean and tidy and the wardens pleasant. There prior to Easter and site was very quiet. Ideal for visiting Tredeager House and would recommend this. Asda very near but unfortunately so is the M4. Some traffic noise at night could be a problem for some ( my wife) but I didn't find it a problem myself. Visited Caerleon nearby and enjoyed our visit. Would recommend.

Lovely site but surrounding area bit hectic.

We were due to stay for 4 nights but due to family commitments had to reduce it to 2 nights which allowed it to be a shake-down trip for the start of the season. The site was excellent although our fully-service pitch required an extra long water hose to access the water supply. If you choose a fully-service pitch bring a long hose! The site staff were excellent in every way. It is nothing to do with the Caravan & Motorhome Club or the on-site staff but Tredegar House was closed for filming while we were staying. We only found out on the National Trust website on the first evening, despite visiting NT reception earlier that day and not being told. When we checked with NT reception the next morning they confirmed the closure. I pointed out that nothing had been said the previous day but did not receive an apology for the omission. Poor showing National Trust. (Rant over!) The park is excellent for families and dogs and we were lucky with weather, which was glorious, unlike 4 days later when the snow arrived again! We probably wouldn't visit again because the adjacent road network felt too hectic. There are major road works in progress which probably accentuated the feeling of "busyness" but it is very close to the M4.

Good Site

We use this site as a chance of a quick break away as it is close to home. The site has some good pitches and is set in the country park grounds. We love walking from the site into the Tredegar House grounds with the lake and open fields and play area. Great for dogs and children. Also would be a great stop for anyone wantin to visit Cardiff or as a stopover if your heading to West Wales. A good all round site.

Enjoyed our break

Well just home from Tredegar House site. Thoroughly enjoyed our week. Love wandering around the House gardens. Also really enjoyed our visit to the Welsh National Folk museum Downside was the hardness of the hard standings! Had a real job getting the awning pegs in! So many bent pegs! Be warned. Also we pitched at the top of the site where traffic noise was a little intruding. Pitch at the bottom of the site! Upside we’re the fantastic wardens. Two long served wardens and two new comers who were all really enthusiastic about their job. The site showed it! Aim to go back there again soon!

First time this year

First visit to Tredegar this year, visited twice last year and just love the place. Just off the M4 so very convenient, with local amenities very close and a good base from which to visit many places of interest. Had to cut short our visit this time due to the weather but we will be going back. Friendly helpful staff and spotless site with very clean on-site facilities.

Regular visitor!

Fabulous site to return to following a swap from caravan to motorhome! Ideal for Cardiff and Newport centres, access to M4 excellent and spotless site and facilities. Some traffic noise at this time of year but it's not a reason to avoid the site. A frosty morning provided some spectacular photos of the surrounding countryside and a walk around Tredegar House was wonderful! Would definitely recommend!

Enjoyable autumn stay

We stayed at this site for a week on our visit to South Wales. We hadn’t been to the area before and wanted a good base convenient to the Gower Peninsular which we were to visit after our stay. We wanted to visit Cardiff city and other areas in Wales and the site provided a gateway for it. The site is very well managed, great staff wardens gave us lots of help when we needed it. Thank you for that it was very much appreciated. The facilities are good and well very cared for by the wardens, but could do with updating sometime in the near future. The location is superb, very nice grounds and by the NT Tredegar House. The cafe there has some good wholesome meals at very reasonable cost. Great for cycling and dog walking. There is a little road noise as it is located very close to the M4 and major roads, but didn’t bother us. Will happily stay again.
