    Got here at 0530am to surf, used paybyphone to get a ticket for the day, surfed for a few hours, no problem... Until a woman from the national trust came up to us and insisted we paid, as I had an old ticket in the window. I explained I'd paid, but was met with an eye roll and told I need to pay, and she walked off. Very rude. Don't have paybyphone if you dont believe people!!

    Amazing view. Fantastic beach. Daytime only £8 per van. No overnights. Check tide times and you can walk over to Worms Head (low tide /- 2hrs). We had a nice chat with friendly guys in lookout station. Bay Bistro thoroughly recommended for great food and view. Breakfast Sandwich is amazing.

  • 4/5

    The views are awesome. Winter so it wasn’t a beach day for us. Just stopped to look.

  • 4/5

    Nice, but show respect, do not play loud music, do not have bbq's, do not litter. Be discrete and respectful. Is that really so much to ask?

  • 4/5

    NO OVER NIGHT PARKING signs as you enter car park stating this. we arrived around 7pm a few campers and cars parked up but people started to leave and we felt anxious to stay so also left. perfect place for day parking though views are amazing! £8.00 for camper & £6.00 for car. cash payment unless you pay online or wait until 10am to pay at the centre. toilet and bins here with outdoor shower.

    Just stayed for the day, so not sure about over nighting, but is a gorgeous place to stop. The car par isn’t very flat, but I’m sure you could find something. The overflow car park now has control plates on the outlet, of course if you get in when the overflow gate is open you should be fine, and there is still access to the main car park, which is a reasonable size.

    Amazing sunset, loads of space. NT employee handing out leaflets about not staying over night at 8:30 in the morning. Got up early to buy a ticket for the day

  • 4/5

    Stunning - amazing sunset and breathtaking views. We arrived at 8pm, only a few campers and fishermen's cars parked for the night. £8 per 24 hours is totally worth it and the least we should consider paying for the upkeep of this amazing place. A friendly warden told us overnight camping was not allowed at 8.45am and to all other campers (some arrived earlier that morning). Toilet, outdoor shower

  • 4/5

    Arrived late and stayed the night with lots of other vans. We woke up early to pay for a ticket for the day so no problems in the morning. In the afternoon the warden came round checking people weren’t staying the night and said police were trying to crack down on it. Amazing place though , great location and views, definitely worth at least a day trip. I think if you arrive late and pay for ticket can get away with staying.

    Beautiful views, no overnight parking but a lot of People stay overnights .

  • 4/5

    Beautiful location, huge car park with overflow on a neat cut field but PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE THIS SPOT. The public toilets were open all night, so you do not need to poo or pee in a hedge! Nowhere does it say what time the car park closes and the exit gate was open all night until around 7.30am, when both the overflow entry and exit gates were locked. It felt a bit confrontational as the warden marched straight up to us when we left on foot. I get it, a number of people abuse this lovely site and there are signs saying no overnight parking or camping, but there were a few vans that did the same as us. Please buy a ticket.

  • 4/5

    Great views and walks, toilets open 24/7. Busy during the day. No parking overnight but we did. Wardens work between 7am-7pm, but get yourself up before 7am and buy a parking ticket for a few hours and you'll be grand.

    No overnight parking .. but we did. Limited phone signal. Toilets open all night. Spectacular views, walks & sunsets. Cafe’s and pubs close by. In gate closes at 5pm - we arrived at 7:30pm and drove through the exit gate into the overflow carpark (just for a better view of the sunset). Woken at 8am by NT warden who was lovely - told us we were welcome to stay all day but to just pay the day fee at the machine which we did. Said he had no problem with us staying overnight but that there is a local bylaw that says no overnight camping at the spot.

    Easy, accessible parking for day visit to Rhossili beach. Pay and display. No overnight parking. Stunning views and walk down to the beach.

  • 5/5

    NO PARKING OVERNIGHT! The national trust carpark were very clear signs everywhere and in the morning at 7am he came a knocking saying it was getting "like Butlins" Do not recommend for overnight but was great for a day visit!

  • 5/5

    We arrived here at about 9.30pm Saturday evening and couldn’t see any signs telling us not to park overnight. There were about 10 other vans / campers also staying there. Toilets were open all night, cold outdoor showers behind the toilet block and also a drinking water tap over the wall by the shop. The car park ticket payment info was confusing - there was no indication that the car park was free for any period of time. All it lists is 2 Hrs or all day for different vehicle types. Cars are £3 / £6. Motorhomes are £4 / £8. We risked not paying until the morning. We also struggled to pull £8 in coins together to pay but later saw a sign saying you could pay by card at the info point / shop. We also later saw signs saying not to park overnight. You can definitely get away with it though! We had a great time, and also got away with a bbq lunch set up next to our van in the back grassy part of the car park. Beware that the car park (although enormous) was extremely busy and almost full by midday. So get there in good time / the night before if it’s a weekend / school holidays.

    Great views, toilets and pub.

    Clear signs stating no overnight and guard came by at 6:30 pm to make sure that we were planning to leave before the night. As mentioned previously, the exit gate stays open the whole night and I think you should be OK to stay if you leave before 7:30 am. We didn’t take the chance and moved to the park for night 15 minutes drive to the west which was perfect too.

  • 4/5

    Stayed the night no problem beautiful location couldnt see any signs about not parking overnight.

  • 3/5

    There are clear signs stating no overnight sleeping. Shame The National Trust won't relax their rules!

  • 4/5

    Managed to stay the night in their overflow car park. I had no problems but felt uneasy staying here and moved to their actual car park before 7am to avoid the NT staff seeing me exit the overflow. The “in” gate to the overflow car park closes at 5pm but you can exit any time after. The overflow car park is more level than their actual car park. Toilets were a bit smelly. Outside showers are behind the ladies toilet block. Had lunch at the Bay Cafe, very nice. Free car park for National Trust members, scan your card for a free ticket. Beautiful views but open to elements.

  • 3/5

    Thanks for the location. It’s absolutely beautiful. Couldn’t see showers but the toilets were fine. We did get a note under our windscreen wiper saying that overnight camping is prohibited and not to do it again or action could be taken under some byelaw. I should think you’d be ok for one night only if that doesn’t put you off.

    Parking de jour uniquement

  • 5/5

    Magnifique, gratuit de 6 PM à 9 am. 4 livres pour 2h pour les camping-cars et 8 la journée. Nous étions plusieurs camping-cars à dormir, parking en pente.

  • 5/5

    I arrived here early hours in howling wind and rain with no idea what to expect but, when I woke at 6am to a sunny day, tide out and the views between Worms Head and Burrys Holmes islands I was in my element. I had the place to myself for a brief time before it got very busy but very much worth it.

  • 4/5

    Now ?£8 a night but free for national trust members. definitely no overnight sleeping allowed.Fantastic views and good walking.

  • 5/5

    Absolutely stunning views. Bit pricey at £8 to park for over 2 hours unless National Trust members when it is free. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5

    Local to area yes this is great spot ideal if national trust member stay there all day free too

  • 4/5

    Stationnement payant 8 £ la journée. Lieu exceptionnel à découvrir. Pas de stationnement nocturne à priori. On y a passé une nuit à 3 camping-cars sans être dérangés

  • 2/5
