Porthkerry Country Park

Fantastic place for the kids and the dog. Lovely rocky beach with a small sandy part to it when the tide goes out. Cafe for light refreshments and Marshfield iced cream. Large open space for ball games or playing.

Just so tranquil. Great for walking your dogs.
Mrs Marco's cafe is a good little place a scoffed & snack (can recommend the sausage baps& bacon butties).

Such a gem in the Vale of Glamorgan

Good parking. Wonderful walks and nice cafe on site.
Dog friendly.
Toilets on site

So beautiful park and at lovly place. Close to barry. Best place for BBQ, ride a bike, and walking. nice playground for kids.

Wonderful open space and wooded areas, complete with small river/stream running down through the trees to the sea which is also accessible.

Lots of pathways to explore through the trees and nature reserves to study.

Play area for small humans has also been made available.

Basically a great big shared space where all sorts can gather, have some alone time, chill, do sporty running about, walk animals, look at trees, spot trains, do nature, or do nothing.

Mrs Marco's café is lovely, right by the farthest car park. Two parking areas; one at the bottom of the hill on entry, just before the railway bridge, and the other at the far end near the viaduct. Charges apply (at time of writing: £1 for 2 hours, £2 for 4 hours); contactless payment machines on site.

On a warm day, try to avoid being down wind of the public toilets near Mrs Marco's... If that situation can be rectified, my 4 stars may well become 5.

Great vist with our twins. Plenty of parking. Cafe open so had coffee and cake which was tasty. Expect to pay slightly over the odds but staff were pleasant and coffee was well made and tasty.
Walked down to the beach via the accesible walkway and had a mooch about on the beach looking in rockpools and under stones for sea creatures.

An extremely nice place to visit and enjoy the variety of nature - beautiful woods containing a huge variety of species of tree, with some lovely trails and paths. Not for the faint-hearted, although one can remain at the base of the woods and enjoy walking next to the stream.
An awesome wooden park for children, and huge fields.
There is a cafe selling ice cream (seasonal I believe), and ample parking (fairly priced)with toilet facilities.
There is also a pebbled beach to enjoy. Phone signal can be bad, which is good, depending on situation 🙃😁🙏

Love the various walks you can do here, huge open spaces, park, sea with a pebble beach. Normally alot quieter than Barry Island & The Knap.
