Camping in Swansea

The Gower Peninsula shapes most of Swansea's camping scene, with sites scattered along its coastline and farmland offering easy reach of beaches like Rhossili and Caswell Bay. Rhossili Paddocks and Nicholaston Farm Caravan and Camping sit close to some of the best sand and cliff walks in the county, while farm-based pitches such as Tir Abbey Farm Campsite and Phillistone Farm suit those happier inland, among fields and hedgerows.

Glamping has taken hold alongside the traditional pitches, from the timber comforts of Swansea Log Cabin to the more styled retreats at Hillside Glamping Holidays and Panoramic Camping and Glamping, the latter making good on views over the peninsula. Motorhome travellers are well catered for too, with spots like Caswell Bay Motorhomes offering straightforward bases near the coast. Choosing often comes down to whether you want beach on your doorstep or the quieter pull of farmland further from the crowds.
