Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked very much space, warm shower; basic facilities cleaned twice daily
Stunning view of the bay and the coast
coastal footpath 10m from the camp site
Tent must be able to withstand wind !

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: I am not sure that this review is for us as we are not on the coast and our pitches each have their own shower and eco toilet.

Excellent hosts, very clean facilities, great and beautiful location

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked Wonderful stay , We arrived and were shown to the camping spot, shown how everything worked etc however upon unpacking the tent we realised we hadn’t brought any tent poles.
The host was great and after a very quick phone call he came back to the campground where we were embarrassed and worried what we’d do as I had no signal to find anywhere else to stay, he said give him 10 mins and it would be sorted - and it was! Absolutely above and beyond
We stayed in one of the pods which was absolutely perfect, clean and beautiful views
I would 100% recommend

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked Great location for lots of walks in the area. We had a private pitch to ourself with our own shower and toilet which was a huge plus. We also made good use of the sausage shack!

Disliked Could do with a couple of hooks and maybe a little shelf in the shower

Shepherd's hut

Liked Everything! The shepherd hut was perfect. Cosy, comfortable with a stunning view. We could have sat all day and stared out of the massive windows watching the lambs and the endless number of red kites that live in the area. Not to mention the sky at night when the stars were out.
The owner was so friendly and made us feel very welcome.
Pub was only a 10 minute walk away and the area is a haven for wildlife and beautiful walks.
We will definitely be booking another visit very soon!

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked Not your average camping experience..... it's so much better!
We had the most relaxing stay at 'Top of the Rock Glamping'. Such a stunning rural location on a working farm, all farm animals you would expect - pigs, sheep, goats, horses, cows and the odd Cockerell. We had a private pitch with our own water tap, compost toilet and lovely warm shower. Really friendly welcome by Guy the host who even offered to help carry some of our things, bag of logs ready for us to light the amazing firepit that is actually old farm equipment, lovely touch.
Dark skies at night gave us so much opportunity to star gaze and listen to the owls.
We can't wait to come back!

Disliked Absolutely nothing!

Local attractions

When you’re not busy tackling the huge numbers of walking, cycling and motorbiking routes in these parts, set your sights on Clywedog Reservoir (10 minutes’ drive) for fishing, hiking or paddleboarding tuition. That’ll give you a small taste of scenic reservoir landscapes, but Elan Valley (40 minutes) has more of all that, with splendid hikes around its five reservoirs. Enough spying on the water for now… turn your attention on the sky at the Red Kite Feeding Station (half an hour). The station runs daily feedings for those who’d like to watch the birds in flight. If you ever find yourself fancying a little sand and sea, pack your beach gear for the beaches of Aberystwyth (55 minutes), Aberdyfi (55 minutes) and Morfa Borth (an hour), calling by one of Llanidloes’ (10 minutes) pubs and restaurants on the way back.
