Access to toilets, washing are and showers

Our caravan fitted nicely on the pitches including the awning

All of our extended family were able to set up together

Disappointing site, with mediocre facilities

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Proximity to Aberystwyth

Disliked: - There was no reception, and hence little information about the site.
- The toilets and showers were not specifically male or female, which we both found disconcerting.
- The website for the park suggested that there was a footpath into Aberystwyth, but there was no obvious path at the site, so we had to walk along the road, which did not have a pavement for the first few hundred metres, and which was not particularly safe to walk along.
- The grey water emptying was not convenient for a motorhome as it was not possible to park over the drain.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: It was a very nice campsite . Clean and tidy . Good showers . Would recommend it . The only one around that area close to the town centre.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike about the campsite . There is no reception you just pay on line and pick a pitch and cctv picks up your number plate on entrance. The walk to town is around 10-15 minutes . It’s a lovely walk on a nice day as it’s all down hill but a steep hill back . There are buses and can get a taxi but if you’re fit enough it’s a nice walk .

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: The showers are okay. You could do the dishes with hot water.

Disliked: there is now reception, you have to find out where the "pitchup pitches 1-11" are (at the far end). The toilets where awful smelling and like a black box and its a good walk. The pitches are hardstanding with grass but only 1 of 11 fairly level. The dog waste bin was filled to the top when we arrived and weren't emptied the next 3 days. There's no WiFi, and a sign says who complains is no longer welcome!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Close to Aberystwyth town centre.
Horse in the field.

Disliked: Toilet block was dirty.
Noisy people at 3am in the lodges.
Workmen living in the lodges were also noisy at midnight.
Park is very small and broken.
Noisy main road next to campsite.
No soap in toilet block.
No reception to check in.
No shop onsite.
More geared up for caravans - should not have tents staying there really.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Play area for kids. Top facility area clean.

Disliked: Not enough facilities. Given a pitch number by pitch up
. When we arrived someone was on the pitch, we had booked adjoining pitches because we were with family. We had to find two pitches which unfortunately were not level as all the level pitches had been taken. There was a sign on the fence saying pitchup, use any pitch between 1-11. Fine if you are on your own. Grill over chemical toilet disposal area, caught most things you were trying to get rid off.

The price (£30) was too much for what is offered.

Liked: The pitch was good, big enough with a good level. Cabins of the showers were good.

Disliked: You need a bucket to empty your Grey water. There were only 2 toilets.

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…
