  • Small campsite with spectacular views over Cardigan Bay in Ceredigion
  • Welsh Wildlife Centre and National Wool Museum 25 minutes’ drive
  • Back-to-basics, off-grid pitches; pubs and beaches 20 minutes’ walk
Very true to its name, Aberporth Sea View Camping does indeed have captivating views over the sea – the Irish Sea in fact – from its setting in a hilltop camping meadow. Tucked in between the seaside villages of Aberporth and Tresaith (both five minutes’ drive) overlooking Cardigan Bay, the sea views are quite simply spectacular from all vantage points across the site. Frills may be few at this tiny Ceredigion campsite (there are only a handful of pitches, and they are all off-grid), but frankly who cares when two beaches are within 20 minutes’ walk, and there are farm parks within half an hour’s drive to keep the kids happy? It’s also a handy overnighting spot for long-distance walkers ‘doing’ scenic coastline rambles along the Ceredigion Coast Path, which runs just below the camping field. For safety reasons campfires are not allowed at the pitches here, but barbecues are welcome. You can pick up barbecue bits and bobs in the convenience store in Aberporth, or dodge cooking altogether and find your favourite among the village’s pubs and takeaways.

What customers say

Peaceful site with great sea views and sunsets. Guests love the clean, quality showers and toilets. Perfect for coastal walks and beaches. Basic but good value with a friendly owner. Signage and pitch levelling could be better.

Jayne B. 6 reviews

Unpowered concrete and grass motorhome site

Liked Stunning views and sunsets. Location good as you have the coastal path to two beaches with cafés, shops etc. The site owner is very helpful as we had a problem and she helped us resolve it. The pitches are not restriced, the showers and toilets, I was a bit dubious about but they are fantastic. No pushing shower buttons every two minutes here. The rain shower heads are great too. Each day there are fresh flowers in the jug between the two Belfast sinks, this brought a smile to my face each day. Brilliant site, brilliant prices. We will be back.

Disliked Not a dislike as such but WIFI would be great if it was installed for the campsite users.

Local attractions

Beaches calling? Exercise any dogs travelling with you at Dolwen Beach (five minutes’ drive), which is canine-friendly all year, go dinghy sailing from Tresaith beach (15 minutes’ walk), and sunbathe or kayak from the fine sandy stretch at Aberporth (20 minutes). Further north, head to Aberaeron’s shingle South Beach (half an hour’s drive) to see if you can spot the famed dolphin pod that lives in Cardigan Bay. Take the kids to see the giant animals sculptures at the Welsh Wildlife Centre (25 minutes), and befriend the llamas and donkeys at Cardigan Island Coastal Farm Park (20 minutes). Any steam fiends among you might like to inspect combustion engines at the Internal Fire Museum of Power (10 minutes), or you can hear all about the former Welsh textile industry with tours of the National Wool Museum (25 minutes) in a converted mill. Time-travel back to prehistoric times with trips up to Pembrokeshire’s mighty standing stones at Pentre Ifan Burial Chamber (35 minutes), see the gaunt Waun Mawn Standing Stones (half an hour) at sunset, or explore the recreated Iron Age roundhouse settlement at Castell Henllys Iron Age Village (25 minutes).
