Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Very picturesque, peaceful site and friendly, helpful owner. The facilities are basic but very clean and provided everything we needed. It is a short walk to a lovely beach and close to a static caravan park with a bar/restaurant, nice to sit out in the evening with a drink. It is quite close to a railway line but we didn’t find the noise intrusive as the trains are infrequent. In all, we had a lovely stay at Ty-Gwen, it’s great value for money and we would certainly stay there again.

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Nice basic site, ideally located for a seaside break. Toilets were clean and there was hot water for washing up. (If there was a freezer for icepacks I didn't find it!) This was my second visit and this time I brought my teens in the hope of few sunny beach days. Unfortunately the weather didn't play ball but we explored the dunes, found the lovely Animalarium and had a trip to Aberystwyth. Perhaps we'll try for a sunny beach holiday again next year.
Disliked: Very minor moan - the grass was a bit long leading to soggy trousers so more frequent cutting would be good.
