Lovely simple site - would stay again!
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Great simple site with very clean flushing toilets and large washing up sinks. Lovely host who offered me and the kids (2, 5 and 7) sanctuary from the tent when the weather looked bad - in the end we were really lucky and the yellow warning weather held off!
Disliked No sink for face washing or hand washing (although hand gel is provided in toilets).
The washing up area could be improved with a cover/rain shelter.

Simple back to nature camping by the sea
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Peaceful, relaxed, open & spacious site, little stream running through it, and right next to estuary. Lovely views across the valley.
All the birds flying over the site - geese, oystercatchers, red kites
Owners very friendly & helpful - encouraged us to watch the bank holiday fireworks, which were v impressive!
The toilets are very nice & kept v clean. The swallows flitting about overhead were also charming!
Washing up bowls & liquid provided at the sink
You can very easily walk down the bridle path to Ynys Las beach, just over the bridge and walk straight on where road turns sharp left.
It is v simple and exactly as described, (no showers, no bins, no places to charge phones, no wifi, no fridge/freezer or washer/drier facility) but absolutely perfect for people who love a simpler, back to nature camping experience, but with a decent loo!
Disliked Nothing really.
It can be a bit windy there, this is just down to the location itself!

Lovely, peaceful campsite, well situated for the nature reserve.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Lovely, peaceful campsite, surrounded by nature, with basic amenities provided. Lovely hosts, who were very friendly and a pleasure to chat to, offering suggestions to make my stay more pleasurable, and also tips about the local wildlife. Approximately 10 minutes walk from Ynyslas nature reserve and beach, and a short stroll from amazing views over the Dovey estuary and the sunset. did not need anything more, and will certainly make a return booking. Thank you
