What customers say
Peaceful, quiet campsite with lovely estuary views & Dyfi Valley access. Campers loved the well-stocked portaloo & private beach. Watch out for boggy, hilly ground and the access road for big vehicles; staff availability also noted as limited.

Unpowered grass campervan site
Liked Easy booking, plenty of space and a clean porta loo. Not much else to say. A proper wild camping experience and everything as described. The views on the estuary were nice. We have a LWB VW Crafter and no issues getting up the hill and we did manage to find a fairly level pitch.

Disliked Not really suitable for campers as very boggy and on an hill nice but to benefit from this you have to drive right onto the field it’s very of grid and you have to make your own mind up as no one is there at all incase of problems or to greet and tell you ware and what’s what one toilets dropping apart and not clean,

From the manager: Hello thank you for staying, I’m sorry it wasn’t up to your standards. But as a wild campsite we want the experience for our guest to be exactly that, this is why we don’t have a reception office ect nor someone around, this way the guest can fully embrace the beautiful and wild nature the campsite offers. And in an emergency we are only a phone call away, and we love to help if needed…. Regarding the portaloo we do have it cleaned weekly, I am sorry it wasn’t whilst you stayed. We will make sure it is, and hopefully you’ll stay with us again. Many thanks again for camping at Dyfi wildcamping.

Unpowered grass campervan site
Liked Idyllic views over the estuary. Peaceful, quiet campsite. Wonderful private beach a mere 5 mins walk away. Good base location.
Disliked Road up to site, foliage got caught in campervan (Mercedes Sprinter) probably not ideal for larger vans.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hello and thank you for staying at Dyfi Wildcamping, we have cut the foliage and overhangs back, the growth this year has been crazy! we hope to see you again.
Fab location, just don't follow Google maps but stay on the main road.
