Kenfig National Nature Reserve

Reviewed By whiphound64

Even though you could walk and enjoy without a dog - 'dogs rule' - lovely to see so many dogs mostly off leads being walked. Either stroll down dunes to Sker Beach which is stunning and usually deserted or visit the jewel in the crown the 'pond' - I have visited here many times in the past 6 years when I have been camping nearby. Sometimes seen upto 20 dogs all playing, swimming and running around together - great to see them all socialising - why keep a dog on a lead they are pack animals! Toilet facilities at car park always clean and usually an ice cream van to refresh you after your walk. Free car parking as well - will certainly be visiting again and again.

Rest Bay Beach

Reviewed By 2wit2Huw - Cardiff, United Kingdom

Rest Bay has been transformed with the new Activity Centre where you can hire Bikes, boards, wetsuits and have lessons on how to use them. An outside Costa (and toilets) or upstairs for quality food or just coffee and cakes. The Sandy flat beach has always been a favourite for surfers and children, with rock pools, clean sand and lifeguards on duty. A wonderful place for all ages.

Coity Castle

Reviewed By helstravels

Although it probably won’t take you more than an hour to look round. This is well worth a visit. It strangely in the middle of a housing estate. Would be knights and princesses can let their imagination. No toilet or cafe facilities but it free and easily doable.
