The new Shower and Toilet block opened on 5th August 2020. There are separate female, male and disabled/family sections; an outside washdown shower and stainless steel washing-up sink. Tokens are available for the shower meters (coins will not work).
Farm Fields (13 acres, or nearly 10 football pitches) above the beach are open in August, with plenty of room and space. This 'wild camping' is restricted to tents and trailer tents, with places to pitch that are set far apart. There are water taps located in most fields, no hook-ups. Of course, the facilities on the main site (showers and toilets) are also available to campers using the farm fields. There will be no additional charge for those who bring their own toilet tents in order to remain self contained (many have this season).
Happy campers from Abergavenny:

The new Shower and Toilet Block has been open since Wednesday 5th August.
There are 14 electric hook-ups on the main site ("first-come-first-served"). It is not possible to book hook-ups in advance.
Electric showers are £1 for a token, obtained from Famous Pete. Campers must not use coins, they shut down the meters.
We do not allow campfires (on the ground which damage the grass), and Chinese lanterns may not be lit or launched on site (the campsite is part of a working farm).
In the interests of other campers, dogs should be kept under close control or preferably on a lead on the site. They are not allowed in the shower and toilet block.
To avoid damage to the grass-cutting machinery and natural environment: campers are requested not to remove stones from the hedges or leave them on the fields: Respect the Farm.
The main 30 pitch site is fairly flat, sloping gently down towards the sea; the farm fields above the beach (open in August) all have flat areas mainly next to the hedges, but if you camp on a sloping section it would be wise to park your vehicle across rather than facing downhill. The higher up you go in the fields, the flatter your pitch will be (and more dramatic the view).
