  • 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…

What customers say

Well-kept, clean campsite with gorgeous sea views and sunsets. Staff are friendly and helpful, facilities are excellent (pool, playground), and dogs are welcome. Some find shower blocks a bit dated (upgrades coming) and it can get windy, but overall, it's a hit. Many plan to return. Just mind the narrow lanes on arrival.

Brett G.

Kestrel clifftop FHU cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite (no awning)

Liked Good facilities and very friendly, helpful staff

Disliked Toilet block is dated, and potentially small if the site gets full (it was very quiet during our stay), but I know they have plans for a much better new block, so hopefully this will get resolved soon.
Also, no free WiFi, only payable option.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: **Thank you, Brett, for taking the time to share your feedback!**
We’re really pleased you enjoyed your stay on our Kestrel clifftop pitch and appreciated the friendly atmosphere, great walking opportunities, and helpful staff. It’s lovely to hear that the site’s natural beauty and peaceful surroundings made a positive impression.

We also appreciate your constructive comments. You're absolutely right — the toilet block is due for a major upgrade, and we're excited about the improvements planned to better accommodate guests during busier times. Regarding WiFi, we’re actively exploring options to enhance connectivity and make it more accessible.

Thanks again for your visit and your helpful insights. We hope to welcome you and your family back to Morfa Bychan Holiday Park soon!

Warm regards,

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.
