Stephen G.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Everything! This was my children's first camping trip and they loved it. Feeding the animals, making dens, exploring the hill fort, buying little treats from the shop and just running around.

The facilities are great, the owners are lovely and despite having to pack up in the drizzle and rain, I couldn't fault anything. An absolute gem.

Disliked Nothing. It's a fantastic site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

I would definitely recommend this camping and glamping site to all.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely campsite, nicely spaced secluded pitches, friendly welcome and great local recommendations from the hosts, and animal feeding a couple of the mornings was a hit with our 5 year old! Great to have a chance for a cooked breakfast a couple of the days too. We were lucky with the weather but great to know there's a cosy book room and covered barn area. Washing / washing up facilities all great too.

Route directions

Due to the remote location, there are about 20 houses with the same postcode, about half a mile apart, so if you use satnav to find the site the last half mile can be tricky. Please copy the online map and follow the instructions below. From the east: From Lampeter head west on the Aberaeron Road (A482). After about a mile past Felin Fach take a right signposted with a brown tourist sign towards Ty Mawr Hotel. Follow the road over the bridge and steeply up the other side, until you reach a junction. Go right, leaving the Ty Mawr hotel on the right. After a few hundred metres, take a left just before the blue village signs of Cilcennin. Follow the road for about a mile, through a group of houses and Naturesbase is just after the black metal gates on the right. From Aberystwyth and the north: Join the coast road south of Aberystwyth towards Cardigan. At Llanrustyd take a left to Talsarn. After 7 miles, having passed through the villages of Nebo and Cross hands, take a right to Cilcennin with a brown tourist sign also pointed to Ty Mawr. You will pass Cyclemart on your left; keep going through the village of Cilcennin until you reach the old pub, the Commercial Inn. Immediately after the pub and before the church take a right down a narrow steep lane. After about half a mile at a white house take the first left. Naturesbase is 100 metres on the left.

Local attractions

Beaches, hills and history... west Wales is where it all comes together and you're well placed to reach it all from your base. You can be down on the sands at Aberaeron in 15 minutes, doing everything from sandcastle building and rockpool foraging to fishing, windsurfing and sailing. For further seaside adventures, New Quay is 25 minutes' drive from Naturesbase and Aberystwyth 35. Or get up on the cliffs instead: Aberaeron is an excellent spot to join the Ceredigion Coastal Path, said to be the most varied of the trails taking walkers round the Welsh coast. Keen hikers do the 60-mile full monty; you can do as much or as little as you like, taking in wildlife, wildflowers and wild scenery along the way. Once you've been up, head down... underground at Dolaucothi Gold Mines (35 minutes), where guided tours take you deep down inside the mountain mined for its precious metal since Roman times. Try gold panning yourself at the end; you never know... Inland, Devil's Bridge Falls (45 minutes) and surrounding turf is tremendously well-furnished with hiking paths. Hear the roar of the falls, explore the deep wooded gorge below and learn why the Devil himself built a bridge there.
