Excellent and well run site

We have visited this site on previous occasions and it did not fail to match our expectations. The site is very tidy and the toilet block was spotless. One thing did bother us a bit and that was that guests who were already sited were reserving an additional pitch for their extended family or mates but putting their car on the pitch to stop other new arrival caravans from going on to the pitch. We were surprised the wardens condone this sort of behaviour

Easy and peaceful

This was our very first caravan trip in our new Sprite van, and it is just down the round from our house. So easy to drive to even if you have a really big van and clearly signposted, which is important when you are worried about roads being wide enough for you. Nice welcome at office, and they allowed us to chose our site, but I asked for their recommendation of the easiest to access pitch being newbies at this! (upgraded from a tent). They provided a site map and recommended which pitches would be easiest to reverse into. Lovely large hard standing pitch, and plenty of room for the car and awning. One toilet / shower block on site (with 3 or 4 toilets etc), which was clean and had plentiful hot water for our shower the following morning. Only negative is that the toilets were closed for cleaning between 10.30am - 11.30am the day we were leaving, so make sure you are not caught short! Maybe this time slot should be 11.30am - 12.30pm instead? You have to leave the site at 12 noon. The one thing that I made it so appealing to me, was the NO BALL GAMES allowed on site. So I didn't get disturbed by some ball being hit, kicked or bounced off our van. Recommend the site, and will use again in the future, probably yearly after our van service to check all is working.

Not to be missed

Excellent site, well run and clean, weather was kind to us so made stay more enjoyable, only downside is if you are pitched at top end of site there is a bit of traffic noise, but you get used to it. Word of caution, be aware that the National Trust lock their gates at 9pm, we went out for a meal and found the gate locked, silly me, didn't realize there was a additional key on the fob, slight panic in till a car came out and explained the procedure, not fault of site but could of been avoided if they had given us the site handout, didn't seem important until then. Just be aware the Tredegar House is completely covered in scaffold at the moment so is not looking at its best but is still worth a visit.

Weekend break

Had a 2 night stay at this lovely well kept and well run site. Very close to the motorway although you wouldn't think so as the site still feels rural. The grounds of Tredegar park are beautiful, Ideal for walking the dog. Shower block was lovely and clean, as was the rest of the site. Warden was quite strict but nice enough, he does seem to run the site well I have to say. Nice level pitches, good size, and well spaced. Weather wasn't too kind but didn't spoil too much, would like to return to this site, no doubt about it.

Good spot, Lovely grounds

We visited Tredegar House as it was the closest site when we picked up our new caravan. It is set in the grounds of a lovely Stately Home (although under going extensive refurbishment & covered in scaffolding at the time we visited). The grounds of the house are very good for dog walking & children. Tredegar House is open to view (National Trust) with a few nice shops & a cafe. The site wardens where very pleasant & friendly. The site is close to the M4 with the associated road noise, but this didn't disturb 2 good nights sleep. Great spot for visiting Newport, Cardiff & the Valley's.

Nice weekend

Our first time at this site, easy to find, wardens were very friendly and helpful, site is spotless well manicured, fantastic for walking and the grounds outside are well looked after by the national trust. We only have two "buts" they are we had to report to the warden the dog poo we found outside our caravan on the Sunday morning, plus there was the same left in an other area of the site (this was not fault of the wardens) and for us the second was the road noise, the motor way is very close and we thought we would not be bothered by the noise but sadly we were. Although not for us again I would highly recommend it.

Lovely and historic site

This site is only a 30 min tow for us but this was our first visit. Easily accessible from the M4. A beautiful, manicured location set in the grounds of the National Trust managed house. The facilities were clean and warm and the grounds well kept. A card key allows access to the site but this must be removed from the holder to function - took us a while. An additional gate is locked at night for which you are provided a key. During the summer months (we visited in March) we would score 'peace and quiet' 3 as would spend more time outside. Although the weather was sunny (amazing!) it was too nippy to be lolling on deck chairs so were not affected by the road noise some reviewers mention. Country folk may notice it more but we only heard it inside the van when thinking about it. A decent national chain pub (The Dragonfly) and supermarket are close-by and walk-able for most. Brilliant for families as lots of grounds to exhaust little people. Delightful 3 night stay.We will return particularly as its so near to us - never think of looking locally!

Heaven

We are new to the caravan world, starting only last July. This trip was also our first into Wales, it did not disappoint. We are returning in April, this site is that good, local Amenaties which just about covers everything you need. Open space to walk, Tredegar house open to visitors, on local bus routes for Newport and Cardiff, though we like getting away from the cities.

Lovely Site

We come to this site about twice a year. I find it quiet and peaceful. There is some road noise but not enough to bother you. We had a friendly welcome as usual. The site is one of the smaller sites, with one toilet block. It was clean, warm and tidy as per usual. I never saw more than two people in the block ( ladies) while I was there, we stayed 4 nights. The boiler was being serviced one morning again these things and have to be done and most of us have our own facilities. There are two toilets to use if the facilities are being cleaned. A lovely area for dog walking and children playing ball games. There is a gate which is locked at dusk, you have a key to open it if leaving site at night, take a torch to see or use the cars brake lights.

An OK site but ready for updating.

Stayed here for two nights at the end of March. The warden who checked us in was very friendly and had saved us a pitch near the toilet block as I have a disability. The site is a good location for a stop over or visiting Cardiff but due to the traffic noise, of which we had been notified before hand, I would not want more than two nights. Our main gripe is that there is only one toilet block with 4 showers available. I used the disabled room but closing the men's block at 10.30 for cleaning seems early when on holiday. No time for a leisurely breakfast before showering. If the site was full it would be a race to the showers. On our second morning wetrundled off at 10 to find there was no hot water and maintenance/repairs were being carried out on the boiler. If planned maintenance could this not have been delayed until normal closing time? If urgent there had not been a lot of publicity that there wouldn't be showers available. Very annoying. Watching many people going to the toilet block and quickly returning we were not the only ones to be caught out. Also whilst very clean the block is a bit tired and could do with updating and expanding to accommodate a full site.
