Bank Farm, Horton, Gower, Swansea, West Glamorgan., SA3 1LL
This is our New Year Celebration meet with entertainment provided by Bank Farm in the clubhouse, so no doubt we will have a good holiday with plenty going on, one you do not want to miss. New Year program of events available on Bank Farms website click here.
Postcode SA3 1LL , map reference 159 / 465863; follow Y.B.S.B 159 / 142 for directions. However, for the part of your journey across Gower we would urge you to take the B4271, turning left to go over the hill (the Bryn) then take 1st left (sharp turn do not go through Reynoldston village), and back to the A4118 before reaching Port Eynon. This looks wrong on the map, but the alternative is some very narrow winding sections on the A4118, not very caravan friendly, DO NOT USE SAT NAVs when nearing the site.
There is shower and toilet facilities, and a short walk takes you to the main complex with the bar, restaurant, take-away, swimming pool, and games room. All of these facilities are available to campers at no extra charge. There is also a children’s playground, and a separate field for games and dog exercise. Bank Farm is located above Port Eynon bay and it is possible to walk to the beach from site, the local area forms part of Wales’ first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with unspoiled countryside, beaches galore and villages tucked away from main roads. All we need for a brilliant meet is the weather.
Inline with government guidelines due to the covid19 coronavirus pandemic.
All sites are now closed. All Meets / Temporary Holiday Sites, DofE Booking, Group bookings and any area where the primary purpose is for people to gather and socialise have been cancelled until at the end of July.
