If I need a campsite in the area I would pick this one.
Electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked Just what I needed.
I was given a pitch next to my friend. Campsite was quiet and toilets and showers were clean and functioned very well.
I was attending the international ceramics festival so really have very little time on the site other than sleeping and breakfast. But was just what I needed.
Disliked Nothing really.

Give it a miss, unless you need an over nighter.
Electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked Clean quite mostly. Does what it says on tin, no more no less.
Disliked Main road next to site, no reception. Could do with more signage at gate telling travellers, to go to pitch up signs in gravel standing. Also more fresh water points . Noticed travlers having to block road to fill up . Also nothing at site scenic wise. Showers and loos are Porto houses. One major problem is they are mixed use, so my wife wouldn’t use them. Lastly lots of caravans sited there with silly looking gardens, etc. the weekender parties. Some extremely scruffy looking ones. Sorry but that’s what we saw. Won’t go again .

Disappointing site, with mediocre facilities
Electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked Proximity to Aberystwyth
Disliked - There was no reception, and hence little information about the site.
- The toilets and showers were not specifically male or female, which we both found disconcerting.
- The website for the park suggested that there was a footpath into Aberystwyth, but there was no obvious path at the site, so we had to walk along the road, which did not have a pavement for the first few hundred metres, and which was not particularly safe to walk along.
- The grey water emptying was not convenient for a motorhome as it was not possible to park over the drain.

Clean , close to town and facilities good pitches .
Electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked It was a very nice campsite . Clean and tidy . Good showers . Would recommend it . The only one around that area close to the town centre.
Disliked Nothing to dislike about the campsite . There is no reception you just pay on line and pick a pitch and cctv picks up your number plate on entrance. The walk to town is around 10-15 minutes . It’s a lovely walk on a nice day as it’s all down hill but a steep hill back . There are buses and can get a taxi but if you’re fit enough it’s a nice walk .

never again.
Electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked The showers are okay. You could do the dishes with hot water.
Disliked there is now reception, you have to find out where the "pitchup pitches 1-11" are (at the far end). The toilets where awful smelling and like a black box and its a good walk. The pitches are hardstanding with grass but only 1 of 11 fairly level. The dog waste bin was filled to the top when we arrived and weren't emptied the next 3 days. There's no WiFi, and a sign says who complains is no longer welcome!
