Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Great pitches and easy to access. The facilities were great. Aberystwyth only a short 20min walk so great to get out for the day and then back to relax.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Toilet and shower facilities were amazing - hot and very clean! It was pretty quiet on site which was nice.

Disliked: Pitched feel quite close together but our neighbouring pitch were a lovely family so didn’t both us! Wasnt much to do, walking wise around the site that felt safe to walk to. Roads nearby had no pavements but if we were feeling braver it would have been great to walk into Aberystwyth!

Pros and cons. Bad for someone with limited mobility due to incline.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Quiet campsite, clean, great location close to Aberystwyth but also in the countryside. Great views to mountains. Easy and flexible check-in. Pitches level and close to water taps. Excellent phone signal. Toilets well stocked.

Disliked: The tourers are located at the bottom of an incline, and it’s a bit of a way back up the incline to the grey & black water disposal and toilets & showers. The water disposal grates are both raised off the ground so it’s pretty impossible to lift a full wastemaster high enough. The drinking water taps aren’t well signposted, and are across grass which was a problem when we visited as it was very muddy. Pitches not big enough for car and (tiny) caravan.

Liked: Heated toilets and showers. Always clean.

Disliked: Not the site but the last bit of the road walk back from Aberystwyth with no pavement. Only a couple of hundred yards but lots of traffic.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Clean, modern showers and toilets easily accessible and well prepared pitches. An ideal place to stay if you enjoy camping/glamping and you want to visit with a family member or friend studying at the university.

Disliked: It was disconcerting not to speak to a person on arrival or departure but everything was well signposted and straightforward. It would be good to have a drive over motorhome grey water disposal point.

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…
