The film begins on a campsite with some children messing about with a pile of mown grass. Tents, caravans and cars are dotted around the perimeter of a field. A group of campers are having a game of outdoor skittles. Another group is sat around in deckchairs having tea. There are views of the campsite showing many tents and across a valley. There is a street sign for Bosherston. A group are walking over a footbridge across a river and down to the sea. At a campsite overlooking the sea tables are laid to eat. A few go for a walk near the cliffs, and back at the campsite three women peel spuds. A woman takes a Pekingese dog for a walk over the rocks, and there is another view of the campsite.

A man sits in front of a tent peeling spuds, while two women are also preparing a meal. A large number of people are by a river near rapids. Tents and cars are sprinkled around a campsite. There is then a view down onto the campsite from a hill. Back at the campsite the women are again preparing food. There is a mountain stream.
Intertitle – Port Eynon Wales
There is another campsite overlooking the sea. Two women pull a canoe along the beach. There is a log cabin selling teas and coffee. And then a view down to a river with tents and caravans pitched on the banks, where children are playing and some swim in the river, several struggling to lie on lilos. Back at the campsite a women, possibly the grandmother, holds a baby, with some children looking on. A group of adults stand in a circle playing a game throwing a ring to each other. There is a street sign for Llanrhystud. A woman crosses a footbridge over a river and looks at some spring flowers. There is a large gathering around a bonfire and a man conducting singing. Then a view over a bay, and the tide is out. Back at the camp the baby is held up for the camera by its mother. The film finishes suddenly showing a poodle and another dog.
