  • Clifftop site with stunning sea views out towards Cardigan Bay
  • Under 15 minutes' drive from Aberystwyth
  • Outdoor heated pool, playground and games lounge
What a beaut. And it's an award-winner too: carve out as much time as you can to stay at Morfa Bychan Holiday Park, on a Ceredigion clifftop overlooking stunning Cardigan Bay. As you'll see from the pics, spectacular sea views are all around here, so you can be basking among these Welsh coast views as soon as you arrive (barbecues are allowed for those who prefer to bask among coastal views while their other half preps the alfresco eats). Beach access is a cinch too, as famed seaside resort of Aberystwyth is within six miles, and the park has direct access to its own pebble beach for shore walks, fishing, boating, rockpooling and surfing. There's loads of room for kids to run around on the park and on the beach; should they inexplicably tire of this, take them along to Morfa's pirate ship play area to swashbuckle and swing. The heated outdoor summer pool and spacious grassy area alongside are other popular family spots, as is the games lounge with board and computer games, TV, pool tables and air hockey. The friendly team are on hand to help with whatever you might need, whether it's assistance in getting set up when you arrive or sharing their tips on the (many) top places to make for in the region. There's a stack of tourist info at the site reception to aid your decision-making further and give you something to read while your other half sorts out the coffee…

What customers say

This site boasts spectacular sea views, especially at sunset. Facilities are generally clean and well-kept, with staff often praised for friendliness and helpfulness. Families love the playground and pool. Great for coastal walks, though access roads can be narrow and it's windy. Some found facilities dated and Wi-Fi pricey.

Buzzard powered grass tent, travel trailer or trailer tent campsite (sloping)

Liked The pool is brilliant; very warm and a real draw for kids, especially on a rainy day. Play area great too; kids loved playing there and made some new friends Site was very peaceful and quiet; really nice place to relax. Good, clean facilities; toilets, showers, plenty of outdoor taps to refill water wothout walking for ages. Well maintained and friendly staff; the shop on site is great if you have forgotten your tin opener or need some basic supplies. Safe and secluded location meant we could let the kids go and play without worrying, but well signposted from the main road. Nice beach at the borrom of the cliff but not a sandy beach you could spend the day at, though kids loved rockpooling.Will definitely come again.

Disliked It is a two mile drive from the main road, which is mainly single track. This is difficult when you meet vehicles coming the other way: we only had a small car but would be much harder with a caravan or large vehicle. The camp site is also on a slope, which was quite difficult for sleeping. Kids rolled off their beds in the night which woke them up! Whilst we loved the quiet, one large family with 4 teenage boys were quite noisy until gone midnight so perhaps a reminder at reception when people arrive to be mindful of how much notice they make after dark!

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely and detailed review! 🌟 We're delighted to hear that your family had such a great time with us — especially that the kids enjoyed the warm pool and play area. It's always wonderful to know when little ones make new friends and memories here!

We're also really pleased that you appreciated the peaceful atmosphere, clean facilities, and the convenience of our on-site shop. It’s great to hear that the safe, secluded setting gave you peace of mind while the kids explored and played.

We completely understand your comments about the access road and the sloping pitch — thank you for sharing that feedback. We’ll continue looking at ways to improve the experience for all our guests, including reminders about quiet hours to help everyone enjoy a restful night.

We’d love to welcome you back again soon for another fun and relaxing stay by the sea! 🏕️🌊

Lee M.

Buzzard powered grass tent, travel trailer or trailer tent campsite (sloping)

Liked Location was picturesque and a short walk to the beach. Staff really friendly and the guy that showed us to our pitch was really helpful. Nice clean toilet block and pot washing station. Didn't get to use the pool but we have stayed at bigher site that didn't have such a nice pool and being covered means it can be used much more then other pools. Loved going down to the beach to check out the rock pools and even saw a good sized lobster pop out briefly.

Disliked Totally not the sites fault as it's the nature of being on a hillside but the tent pitches being on a slope was difficult as we can't level off like the caravans can but we got round it in the end and it didn't take away from our stay.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Lee,

Thank you so much for your lovely review and for sharing those stunning photos—what a great glimpse into your stay!

We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the picturesque location, friendly team, and clean facilities. It’s great to know the pool made a positive impression too, even if you didn’t get a chance to use it this time. And spotting a lobster in the rock pools—what a fun surprise!

We really appreciate your understanding about the sloping pitches. As you mentioned, it’s part of the hillside charm, but we’re glad it didn’t take away from your overall experience.

Thanks again for your kind words and for choosing Morfa Bychan Holiday Park. We’d love to welcome you and your family back again soon!

Warm regards,

Morfa Bychan Holiday Park Team

Renay D.

Buzzard powered grass tent, travel trailer or trailer tent campsite (sloping)

Liked Absolutely incredible and beautifully spotless place! I’m surprised the facilities haven’t been scrubbed away by the amount of times they get cleaned a day! Views are incredible, staff are welcoming and friendly, views are insane, other guests were all lovely and respectful. We do not make a habit of returning to sites as we prefer different locations and travel but would undoubtedly stay again if we are revisiting the area!!

Disliked The ONLY constructive criticisms I can add, which would have only enhanced our stay:

Nowhere to put things in showers except a hook, I am aware that a refurb is planned but even a little bench/ shelf in each cubicle would be super helpful!
Fortunately with a baby I was able to use the family room which was a necessity to get showered / dressed.

On note of the above, the temperature of the shower (only used in family room but I assume in all) are push on, they stay on for 10 seconds at a time which although very eco friendly, was inconveniently short. Also, and more importantly, the temperature could not be adjusted, and whilst lovely for a grown adult, it was far too hot for a baby (again in the family room).

Again, these points would just enhance the experience, I assume and hope will be rectified with the renovation and would not impede us returning in the interim !

From the manager: Dear Renay,

Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for choosing Morfa Bychan Holiday Park for your family getaway!

We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you found the site spotless and welcoming, and that our team and fellow guests helped make your stay so enjoyable. It’s especially lovely to know that despite your usual preference for exploring new locations, you’d consider returning—what a compliment!

We also really appreciate your thoughtful feedback regarding the shower facilities. Your suggestions about adding shelves or benches and improving the shower temperature controls are incredibly helpful. We’re pleased to confirm that a refurbishment is indeed planned, and your comments will be taken into account to ensure the upgrades truly enhance the guest experience.

Thank you again for your kind words and constructive insights. We hope to welcome you and your family back in the future!

Liked Lovely view

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you, we think, for your review of your recent stay on one of our front row, Kestrel pitches for one night.

We are so glad that you enjoyed the amazing panoramic view from your pitch.

It sounds like you were unhappy with your motorhome as you have given a 5/10 for your accomodation.

Not too sure what we have done to reflect an overall 5/10 for your short stay with us but as the saying goes ‘you can only please some of the people some of the time…….

Excellent site with clean facilities, great location

From the manager: Hi Stacey,

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so pleased to hear you and your family had a great time staying on one of our Buzzard pitches. It’s great to know the location worked well for you and that the kids enjoyed the swimming pool — always a holiday highlight!

We had to smile at your note about the badgers — they do like to make the occasional nighttime appearance! We always recommend keeping food sealed and stored away, but we’re glad it didn’t take away from your experience.

We hope to welcome you all back again soon for more fun, sunsets, and seaside adventures!

Liked Loved the location, was peaceful and the views were fantastic.

Disliked The access to the site is down very narrow lanes, driving them was probably the most stressful part of the journey and holiday.
Probably not the best site too choose 14 months post heart transplant 😄

From the manager: Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing to stay with us. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, and found our staff helpful — it truly means a lot to us.

We really appreciate your feedback about the access roads. The lanes can indeed be quite narrow, and we understand how that might be stressful, especially given your recent health journey. We're glad you were able to enjoy your stay despite that challenge, and we admire your resilience and sense of humour!

For future guests, we always recommend researching the route in advance and considering arrival times to avoid peak traffic — and we're happy to help with tips or directions to make the journey smoother.

Wishing you continued good health, and we hope to welcome you back again when the time feels right.

Local attractions

The Wales Coast Path runs through the park and is easily accessible via kissing gates. The path runs for a whopping 870 miles from Chepstow in the south to Queensferry in the north: potter the few miles to Aberystwyth and then – for the energetic – hike further for 10 miles on the linked Ceredigion Coast Path to its finishing point at Ynyslas. Aberystwyth, 15 minutes' drive away, has stacks to do in and out of peak season, including a harbour to wander around, the National Library of Wales and the Aberystwyth Arts Centre for indoor days, and a buzzing nightlife with pubs, gigs and eateries aplenty. The same distance in the other direction will land you at Llanrhystud, a popular spot in summer for beaches, watersports and fishing. Nature spotting and birdwatching are easily accessed in the area too, either under your own steam or via a dolphin and seal safari trip around Cardigan Bay. Ensure your marine mammal sightings – recommended if you possess fractious offspring – with a trip to the Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre at New Quay; boat trips can be booked from here too.
