  • Spacious farm site by the coast 10 minutes' drive from Aberteifi
  • Easy access to Ceredigion Coast Path; 20 minutes' walk from Mwnt beach
  • Sea views and private cove for spotting dolphins and birds
Care to head to Ceredigion, for coastal walks, crowd-free beaches, castles… maybe even catching a glimpse of a passing pod of dolphins? What a cracking idea. And an even more cracking idea is nabbing a few days at Nant-y-croi, on the coast between Aberteifi and Aberporth. If it's easy access to the coast you’re after, you’re in the right place: the Ceredigion Coast Path crosses the farm, for an easy meander to Mwnt beach, 20 minutes away. Even before you set forth for that stroll there are super sea views to be had from the site; gaze out towards the waves for a while and you may well spot the seals, dolphins and seabirds that often pass by these parts. This is a properly peaceful place, but niftily also within easy reach of plenty of ways to fill your West Wales days: more beaches, boat trips, canoeing, golf are all nearby, and you’re well placed for outings to Cilgerran Castle, Cenarth Falls and lots of other scenic spots. For eats, you’re welcome to light up a sea-view barbecue; pick up supplies 10 minutes away in Aberteifi and stash them in the fridge-freezer until it’s coals o’clock. Other amenities on site include a washing-up area, launderette and toilets and showers.

Liked: Gravelled pitches round the outside of the field leaving the middle free and giving a feeling of space with a clear view of the sea. Lovely walk to Mwnt with its beach cafe and hill. Lovely hot water for washing up and showers. Good to have Wi-Fi available.

Disliked: Windy roads to get there.

Liked: We had the pleasure of staying at Nant y Croi in September with our caravan, and it exceeded all our expectations! This campsite is a perfect spot for those looking for a peaceful escape, especially if you're traveling with dogs, as it is a perfect area for walking. One of the highlights was the breath-taking sea views and the easy access to the Cardigan Welsh coastal path, which provided some of the most scenic walks we’ve experienced. The opportunities to spot wildlife like dolphins, seals, and a variety of birds made each walk along the coast even more magical. The site itself is wonderfully quiet, nestled on a working farm, which adds to the peaceful, rural atmosphere. The owners are exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The amenities were great—showers, dishwashing facilities, and clean toilets. We also appreciated the 24-hour access, which gave us complete flexibility during our stay. Essentials were available at the farmhouse, and we could make use of a microwave, kettle, and toaster for a small fee (20p per use), which was a nice touch. To top it off, the location is perfect for exploring some beautiful nearby beaches, including Mwnt and Poppit Sands, which are just a short drive or a decent walk along the coastal path away. Overall, we highly recommend Nant y Croi if you’re looking for a peaceful, dog-friendly campsite with stunning views and great access to nature!

Local attractions

Mwnt’s your nearest beach (and mighty lovely it is too), but it’s far from the only sandy stretch worth a visit locally. Also on your list should be Tresaith (20 minutes’ drive), Aberporth (20 minutes), Poppit Sands (25 minutes) and Llangrannog (half an hour). Should you be seeking a bit of exercise along with your sea views, there’s a golf course 10 minutes’ drive away, or you can head into Aberteifi for all sorts of aquatic activity, including surf lessons, sea kayak tours, serene days of paddleboarding or adrenaline-packed coasteering adventures. If you’ve not managed to spot dolphins from the site, you may have more luck on a boat trip from New Quay (40 minutes). Guaranteed sightings of friendly farm animals are five minutes’ drive away at Cardigan Island Coastal Farm Park; they’re even friendlier if you feed them. Seals can often be seen basking on the shore here, too. Away from the coast, it’ll take you 20 minutes or so to drive to 13th-century Cilgerran Castle, the Welsh Wildlife Centre and the National Coracle Centre at Cenarth Falls.
