  • 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…

Sunset Strip 2 bedroom static caravan (pet friendly)

Liked: Beautiful site, well looked after gardens (no littler). The site was quiet with younger children playing on bikes and enjoying the sea air.
The static caravan we stayed in was immaculately clean. Had basics waiting for us like tea coffee milk. All beds made up on arrival with crisp white linen. And the beds were comfortable.
Wifi in the van was a bonus.
Stayed for two nights could have done more.
A million percent will come back.

This can not be helped road to site very narrow last 2 miles.
This is not a dislike just a recommendation pool to open an hour early for adults only and maybe hour later. A club house would be good to

From the manager: Hi Ian,

Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Morfa Bychan Holiday Park. It's wonderful to know that you appreciated the views, pitch, and pool, and found the site very clean and well-kept.

We appreciate your understanding regarding the narrow road to the site and your recommendations for the pool hours and a clubhouse. Many of our guests prefer not having a bar on the premises which adds to the peace and quiet.

From the manager: Hi Sarah,

Thank you for sharing your experience at Morfa Bychan Holiday Park! It sounds like you had a fantastic weekend stay during Whitsun. The location of your pitch overlooking the sea must have been stunning, and it's great to hear that the park was close enough for your kids to play while you could keep an eye on them. The pool being a hit with your twins and the lovely coastal walk into Aberystwyth are definitely highlights. It's also reassuring to know that the shower and toilet block were super clean.

From the manager: Hi Dawn,

Thank you for your review and for choosing to stay with us at Morfa Bychan Holiday Park! We're delighted to hear that you found our staff friendly and the site immaculate. It's great to know you enjoyed the fish and chips and pizza as well.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the WiFi. Just to clarify, the optional extra WiFi is managed by a third party and not directly by the park. We state on the pitchup page that wifi is not available so do not actively advertise it due to so many people expecting a wifi service which we do not provide.

Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and we hope to welcome you back soon!

Best regards,

Peregrine fully-serviced gravel motorhome pitch (no awning)

Liked: The view was spectacular, peaceful. Helpful and pleasant staff

Disliked: The roads leading to this park could be so avoidable. There's 2 ways in one should be an entry an one should be a exit. But this is not the case so got stuck on the way there and on the way out in a motorhome, both refused to back up. The roads are so bad for that reason won't travel there again

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Joanne R.,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the spectacular views and found our staff helpful and pleasant.

We understand your concerns regarding the roads leading to the park. Unfortunately, the road system is managed by the local highways authority, and we have no control over it. The website does recommend the best entrance to use for access to the park from the main road which can be a lot easier than the access directed on sat navs etc. We will, however, pass on your feedback to them in the hope that improvements can be made.

We appreciate your understanding and hope to welcome you back in the future under better circumstances.

The Morfa Bychan Holiday Park Team

Buzzard electric grass tent, touring caravan or trailer tent pitch (sloping)

Liked: We came with our son, daughter-in-law and two young granddaughters. Although the wet and windy weather was especially noticeable because the site is on a cliff with great sea views, it was lovely to see the children making new friends and playing on the swings and in the swimming pool.

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.
