  • Small, family-run wildlife haven 12 miles from Aberystwyth
  • Tregaron and Cors Caron nature reserve about 10 minutes' drive
  • Friendly owners, dog-walking area and clean amenities
Ever been to the Aeron valley near Aberystwyth? It's really rather lush – so much so that local lyricist Dylan Thomas named his daughter Aeronwy after the river here (what a poetic parent). The valley's a birdwatching haven that amateur ornithologists flock to, although you won't have to stray far to see local flyers if you stay at small family-run Aeron View Camping… the park is often frequented by red kites. If you'd like to see them, guests can ask at the house. Owners Sue and Alex oversee this wildlife-lover's site, which has all the essentials (including a washing-up area, toilets and showers) plus a few added extras like a dedicated dog-walking area (with free biodegradable bags available at reception to pick up any canine deposits). It's a small and quiet place with no mobile phone signal and no pubs or shops within walking distance. Several pubs are within 10 minutes' drive of the site, and there are grocery shops in Tregaron, 10 minutes' drive away.

What customers say

A peaceful, highly-rated spot with stunning views and wildlife. Owners are super friendly & helpful, facilities clean & good value. Great for a quiet break; kids love the play area. Some facilities are basic but overall satisfaction is high, with many keen to return. Expect limited WiFi/phone signal.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Lovely quiet site with beautiful views, very clean and spacious, our kids loved the play area and the friendly sheep, and our dogs loved the spacious dog walking area, the site was spotless with great facilities, we was greeted with a warm welcome on arrival and given a useful leaflet. Plenty of nature and woodland walks within close proximity of Tregaron, and less than half hour travel to the coast.
We loved our trip to Aeron view and can’t wait to book again very soon.

Abi 3 bedroom static caravan

Liked Booked last min due to a weather warning cancelling our booking elsewhere. What a delightful little place. Quiet, peaceful and safe. The caravan we stayed in was spotless and had a wonderful homely charm- fully equipped with everything including tv dvds, everything needed in kitchen (even an airfryer!) Bedding, towels. My partner and 3 girls travelled across wales for a week and this was by far my favourite place we stayed. Owners were friendly and helpful. Children loved the park, but most of all we loved the friendly ginger cat (kids names him Pedro- unsure if that was his name) would highly recommended and return. Also super affordable we paid a similar price for an unfurnished shed elsewhere
Thank you so much

Liked The campsite was absolutely excellent in every way. The facilities were clean and well maintained. The area was beautiful. What made it extra special was how friendly the owners were - they did everything to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The value was really excellent as well, especially considering it was a bank holiday weekend when we visited.

Local attractions

What lovely land this is… in a river valley close to the coast and full of options for walks, wildlife and birdwatching, coarse and game fishing and heaps of Welsh history… If you're here for nature, start off at Cors Caron, a nearby reserve on 2,000 acres of bog built up from thousands of years' worth of peat layers. It's well known for its wildlife, especially winter migrating birds, grassland birds and adders, and otters around the River Teifi, which runs at various points in and around the reserve. Welsh history? Four miles to Aeron View Camping's south west lies the 13th-century market town of Tregaron and home of the Welsh Gold Centre (if you're around in summer, get into town for the Tregaron 'Trotian' event – horse trotting and carriage racing). The Dolaucothi Gold Mines, first delved into by the Romans, are within 15 miles. Finally, make time for at least a day in excellent Aberystwyth, 12 miles to the north west from Aeron View, for at least one trip on the Aberystwyth Cliff Railway to the top of Constitution Hill for a fab vista of Cardigan Bay.
