    this road goes on for a fair few 100m so plenty of space to park. there were loads of vans here. stayed 29.10. quiet enough. lorries and vans driving past in the morning as it's by an industrial estate. lovely walk along the taff trail and through woods. loads of wildlife to see. wouldn't expect this beautiful place right by the motorway.

    Quiet Saturday evening. Two other motorhomes. Feel safe and comfortable. Third time here overnight. We recommend the spot.

    It's a good spot. But have been hassled a few times by gangs of youths passing by and they have thrown rocks. Hit the van etc. I chased them off. I think it's rare tbh. But not impossible to maybe happen again.

    This place is like nothing I have seen, huge stretch of very quiet road lined with trucks and campervans. Was perfect stop when travelling into Wales and great to have the nature reserve to walk through too.

    Stayed here for a quick over night. Lots on parking spaces. It’s on the side of an industrial site. Lots of other campers and truckers here. Had an undisturbed night. McDonalds, petroleum station and other things very close by.

    Parking on side of road in an industrial estate We parked off the main road so it was quite apart from security guard changing staff in evening and early morning. There appears to be alot of people park to walk along the river and some young people to race there cars, but again none of these disturbed us s away from the main road. Good for a one night stop over.

    Great spot for travelling onto somewhere else! We stopped on our way to Pembrokeshire. Quiet and other vans about which made us feel better. Good signal!

    Great location near M4, supermarket and country park. Road can get quite busy around 6am so expect some traffic. Decent 4G signal. Felt safe, stayed from 6pm to 10am with no bother.

    Great spot for day/night camp... Asda 15 min walk... Train into Cardiff centre 12 min walk... Perfect spot... only down side is because its an industrial est the lorries are up and down the road all day and very fast and close... But very quite at night so was perfect for us...

    Used to be a good place nice and quiet. Now there are boy racers, racing up and down, coming dangerously close to parked vans.

    Stopped 2 nights, with no problem. The road has minimal traffic at night. I would stop here again. 10 min walk to 24hr Asda supermarket, McDonald's and Starbucks. Also a lovely walking area next to the River Taff.

    Parked up at 6pm on Friday. Very quiet all night. One other VW (lads with paddle boards) and an overnight lorry. Early morning runners and dog walkers from 8am. Pleasant place for stopover, or park up, adjacent to Taff Trail into Cardiff city centre 7km, 30 minutes on bikes.
