  • Peaceful, basic Ceredigion countryside camping near Aberaeron beach
  • A 10-minute drive to the Wales Coast Path; Cae Hir Gardens 15 minutes
  • Well-stocked coarse fishing lake and wildlife ponds on site
Coast or countryside? No real need to choose at Tynrhos Camping and Fishing, as it’s set in scenic rural Ceredigion and yet is only 15 minutes’ drive from the sea at lovely harbour-side Aberaeron. With ample space on level, tree-sheltered camping fields for tents and tourers, this peaceful, no-frills site has level pitches and is centred around several ponds that are popular with passing wild animals. As you’re pottering about, chances are you’ll spot some of that plentiful wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for red kites and buzzards soaring overhead, herons on the ponds and woodpeckers flitting among the trees. And anglers – listen up, because here’s a treat for you. Central to the site is a one-acre fishing lake well-stocked with carp, tench and perch. Landings are available to hire for anyone with a valid fishing licence. The site owners are on hand to make your stay as relaxing and easy as possible; a fairly basic shower block (but one with plenty of hot water) is available and there’s a communal fridge so you can keep foodstuff fresh.

Local attractions

Seaside Aberaeron (15 minutes’ drive) not only has brightly painted Georgian houses but is also home of the nearest beach – a long sandy stretch that's great for rockpooling. Something of a gourmet centre these days, the town also has a pretty harbour dotted with pubs and restaurants as well as shops selling seafood straight from the dockside and locally made ice creams. If stately homes are more your scene, head for the Georgian-era treasure at National Trust - Llanerchaeron, with its John Nash-designed house and walled kitchen gardens. Other gorgeously planted gardens to discover include Cae Hir (15 minutes), with ornamental areas and a wildlife area. Set in an ancient chapel, New Quay Honey Farm (25 minutes) holds exhibitions on beekeeping and produces mead and honey to taste and buy. If you’d rather explore the area on two legs, long-distance walkers can join the Wales Coast Path (10 minutes) for wild Irish Sea views (keep a watch for the famous dolphin pod in Cardigan Bay) and yomps along clifftops.
