What customers say

This is a well-located campsite, conveniently close to Aberystwyth, offering a peaceful and clean environment. Visitors appreciated the helpful staff and the spacious, level pitches with good access to facilities, including hot showers. While some found the facilities basic and noted a steep walk back from town, many recommended the site for its value and would return. Manager replies indicate improvements have been made regarding facilities and signage.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Very tidy site. Main toilet block was clean. Level pitch, very well drained after all of the rain we had previous to my stay.
Excellent waste and recycling facilities. Can't comment on electric as I didn't use it. Lots of hot water. Excellent location for the nearby town although this is up hill there are buses.
Site entry is monitored by ANPR so I didn't speak with any site owner or warden during my stay although apparently there is one.
There isn't any WiFi on site which I knew about and had no problem with as the phone signal os very good.
Very handy for visiting the nearby Aberystwyth University student village if you are dropping off or picking up your young person.

Disliked I made the mistake of using the older shower block on the first night as I hadn't seen the one near the entrance. This one is functional! There isn't any WiFi on site which I knew about and had no problem with

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked The site is well located for walking into Aberystwyth and into Clarrac Bay. 30 minutes walk into town via the road, or 50 minutes via Clarrc Bay and over the cliffs to the railway car and cafe. I would recommend this wayas itvis very senic.

Disliked The toilet and shower block could do with updating but this would not stop us returning.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Convenient location to Aberyswth although possibly not walking distance to the centre. Good showers. Easy arrival

Disliked Gravel too deep on the pitch which made it harder to pitch. Also difficult to get flat

Local attractions

Once you’ve got your bearings, you’ll want to get clued up on exactly what’s close by. Aberystwyth (five minutes’ drive) has a castle, cliff railway and the nostalgic Vale of Rheidol Railway, while Borth beach (10 minutes) will sort out swimming, surfing, fishing, sailing and windsurfing fans. For walks surrounded by pleasant coastal scenery, the Ynyslas beach and nature reserve (15 minutes) is a sure bet for that sort of stuff, while the Bwlch Nant yr Arian Forest Visitor Centre (15 minutes) has plenty of walks or bike trails in a forest setting instead. There's also red kite feeding activities to mix things up a little there. Put your smarts to the test… you’ll find a few things to wrap your head around at the Centre for Alternative Technology (35 minutes). Meanwhile, Corris Craft Centre (35 minutes) will be a test of your artistic skills instead, while the Silver Mountain Experience (20 minutes) has escape rooms and tours around a Victorian mine. And what about King Arthur's Labyrinth (40 minutes), where re-enactments and boat tours bring the legends to life? Handily, with your guide, you shouldn't get too lost inside the Snowdonia mountains…
