RIVER VIEW RECEPTION & SHOP
Our reception office contains a small shop which sells everyday essentials including milk, bread, soft drinks, cakes, sweets for the children and some local produce such as Tregroes Waffles and Tan Y Castell Welshcakes. Our own free range eggs are available when our chickens are in full production and we also have local bacon and sausages when available.
A book exchange and DVD library are also in the shop and we ask for a contribution to our chosen charity Wales Air Ambulance. If you have forgotten some travel essentials we stock toothpaste, tooth brushes, soap, washing up liquid, cooking oil and other items. Camping items such as pegs and porta poti chemicals are available and we sell Calor gas bottles in most sizes and Campingaz.
WALKS
River View Touring Park covers over 6 acres of our total 16 acre site and we have opened up a short woodland walk that links to our 5 acre hay meadow. This meadow is managed as an ancient hay meadow encouraging an interesting mix of wild flowers including Orchids and Whorled Caraway and is mown around the edge to provide comfortable and easy walking. These two areas provide an ideal area for dog walking or a short evening stroll. Another walk is available across the bridge over the river and then up a track which skirts a wooded valley.
The more adventurous can cross a style at the top of our hay meadow and walk about a mile to an old ruined cottage that has in recent years been used by a Barn Owl. Please be aware the last few hundred yards can be very muddy even in dry weather.
VARIETY OF PITCHES
At River View we aim to provide you with a variety of pitch choices with 3 separate meadows of different character.
River Meadow is primarily operated as an adult only field and is also best suited to those with walking difficulties. Oakwoods Meadow is our family field with a recreation area in the middle. Our final and smaller field is Gorse Meadow with a total of 12 pitches.
Within our three separate meadows we have a mixture of well spaced pitches all with 10amp electric hook-up and all are large enough to take big units. Our 46 all weather pitches are mostly level with a few having a slight slope. The surface is 14mm gravel which is comfortable to walk on but the subsurface is larger stone to provide a sound base. Rock pegs (available in the shop) are recomended to ensure a good solid fixing for awnings. 12 of the pitches are fully serviced with water tap and grey waste drain. In addition to the allweather pitches we have 16 grass pitches for tents or Caravans. If the ground is wet we offer rubber mats for the entrance to the tent or awning, they help stop mud being generated and taken inside and also protect the grass so we both win.
When you book with River View we try to understand your requirements and reserve a pitch that is appropriate for you.
