Right then ladies and gents...
Anyone know if there's anywhere within a mile or so of Llangennith where I can park a van? Maybe even a layby or free car park or bit of wasteland?
just checked the Hillend prices and I'm not paying £26 a night. That's crazy!
Thanks in advance you lovely buggers |  |

How about asking the landlady of the King's Head in Llangennith?
You may be able to park in her pub car park for a small fee.
Plus the church opposite the pub.
Also just before the worms head hotel there's a church there. Have a word as they have a free car park. |  | | |

Just checked now and that on by Worm's Head seems perfect.
Thanks Mr Thorpe  | |

I love the walk down the side of the hotel to the beach. Going back up again without stopping is great for the calves and heart/lungs/fitness [Post edited 25 May 2019 17:09]

Do you mean within a mile of Llangennith village or the beach/campsite?
There’s a little pull in on the left just before you go down the hill into the village. Often camper vans parked there. Bit of a trek to Hillend though.
Broughton is another option. Not sure how much they’d charge though. |  | | |

No. As an ex Portmead boy, it was always "Brow-ton" Avenue. |  |

The avenue in Portmead may be pronounced like that, the beach in Gower isn’t. | | | |

Walk into the Kings Head and ask for directions to Brow-ton or Broar-ton and it will take them a minute to work out what you mean.
As I said, the one jacabertawe was referring to may well be pronounced differently. The one near Llangennith is Bruff-ton. | | | |

Plus with Hillend you can't take dogs and you can't book in advance.
Utter nonsense |  |

Yeah they are a bit up themselves in Hillend. No dogs, no disposable barbecues, you can’t pick people up/drop them off without paying the £4 car park fee. I wouldn’t be rushing to give them my business. | | | |

Thanks gents.
I'll take a mosey on over there next week in the car to sniff around.
In terms of the church, donation based sounds good to me. Are there gates there then? I mean, surely there's not anyone there 24/7?
My van just looks like a van. It's not like a camper van thing. Just a rusty Iveco Daily with a bed and stuff in the back. | |

Only by posh people not from around yer.
I have never heard it pronounced "Bruffton" or the like by anyone. | |
