About River View Touring Park
This family-friendly site is set across six acres of countryside with breathtaking views, a river running along its boundary and fantastic onsite facilities. Located in the heart of South West Wales, guests can enjoy a peaceful country retreat, even bringing the dog along to enjoy some of the nearby woodland walks. The site has three distinct meadows for campers and tourers to choose from. The tranquil River Meadow is predominately adult-only and is also suited for those with accessibility difficulties. Here you can find a selection of electric grass and all-weather hardstanding pitches. While the Oakwood Meadow is not only the biggest of the three but the family friendly meadow. Here the little ones can run wild at the playground! Large grass pitches, hardstanding and fully serviced all-weather pitches are on offer here. Lastly, Gorse Meadow is the site's smallest and offers a range of grass and hardstanding pitches. All grass pitches have a 6 amp electric hook up. Whilst the all-weather and fully serviced pitches offer a 10 amp electric hook up. The site also has a selection of glamping pods available, these are located in the River Meadow. In the summer, guests can enjoy an evening tipple at the seasonal bar! There is also a small shop selling everyday essentials like milk and bread along with traditional Welsh cakes. When available you can even purchase some local bacon, sausages and free range eggs! Please note, the site is located close to two A roads so there may be some slight noise during busy periods. Your pups are more than welcome, with up to three dogs allowed per pitch. You can even take them on the site's woodland walk! If you're after some al fresco dining, BBQs are permitted please just make sure they are raised off the ground. Sorry, open fires are not permitted.
The site is open from March to November. Grass pitches are available for Easter, then from May to September.
Facilities include a modern shower and toilet block. This has underfloor heating and there is also an individual family and disabled room, each with a toilet, shower and sink. There is a covered washing up area with four sinks and drainers as well as an onsite laundrette.
For kids, there is a play area in Oakwoods Meadow. A book exchange and DVD library are also available. A short woodland walk has been created which takes guests to the site's five acre hay meadow- a perfect spot to take the dog for a walk.
There is also an onsite shop in reception stocking everyday essentials. These include milk, soft drinks, bread, cakes and even local produce like Welsh cakes! When available this shop also stocks local bacon, sausages and free range eggs. In the summer season, there is also a bar for guests to enjoy.

The site is clean and well managed. The owner's made you feel welcome and ensured you had everything you needed. They even offered to pick up items from the shops for us. The showers etc are excellent. There was always plenty of very hot water on demand. Usually we use the facilities in our motor home, but on this site we used the site facilities 100%. The beauty of the site is that it caters for adults separated from families if so desired. I will definitely be back.

Things to do on site and in the Pontarddulais area
In the top field ball games can be played, and children can visit the farm animals nearby to meet and feed them. During peak times archery classes are also available for a small fee, which kids love.
Close to the site's river, there are woodland and hay meadow walks for both you and your dogs to enjoy.
The site has easy access to the beaches, mountains and countryside and many of the best attractions in South Wales.
Don't miss these great attractions:
- The National Botanical Gardens, featuring the world's largest single-span glasshouse
- Averglasney Gardens, and the beautiful Aberglasney stately home
- Llyn Brianne Reservoir, around 30 miles from the park close to Rhandirmwyn, perfect for walking dogs
- Cefn Sidan or Pembrey Country Park, a woodland area with 5 miles of sandy beaches
After a spell on the beach you can visit the ski slope and toboggan run or go for a walk or cycle in the woods. The country park really is chock full of activities, tempting visitors with crazy golf, pitch and putt, train rides, an equestrian centre and a variety of nature trails.
