  • 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 mobile home (no pets)

Liked Can’t beat the view, it’s absolutely beautiful! We were fortunate enough to spot some dolphins early morning. The grounds itself are kept immaculate and the caravan was spotless. Arrived to extras such as tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits! Lovely little extras! We were also able to log into Netflix and Amazon prime which was perfect to chill out for a few hours after swimming in the onsite pool, which is also kept well maintained and is a really nice asset, my 7 year old really enjoyed the pool. We were able to buy a pool noodle but they also had inflatable balls and rubber rings etc, which were all reasonably priced in the small shop. The site is perfectly located in between Aberystwyth (15 min by car) and New Quay (40 mins). All I would say is, if visiting during hot days, it’s worth taking a fan!

Peregrine FHU gravel RV campsite (no awning)

Liked Overall a well maintained lively quiet site

Disliked They broke their own rule of no loud music, and no music at all at certain times by blasting the radio inside the toilet/shower block 24/7, felt like a club 18 to 30 definitely not what I needed 10 o’clock at night!!! or eight in the morning come to that. After managing peaceful rest or run the site to walk in there and have it ruined quite a shock definitely not why I expected.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, Sam, and for taking the time to share your experience. We're really glad to hear you found the site well maintained and appreciated the peaceful atmosphere overall.
We’re sorry to hear the music in the washroom facilities impacted your stay. The low-level music is intended to provide a bit of background sound for privacy and comfort, but we completely understand that it may not suit everyone — especially at quieter times of day. Your comments are really helpful, and we’ll review the volume and timing to ensure it better aligns with the relaxing environment we aim to offer.
We hope to welcome you back again in the future for a more restful experience.

Liked Brilliant cliff top pitch, with electric, water and waste water disposal.
Outdoor covered swimming pool, games room and fantastic gardens, almost secret gardens! You ready need to look around this place, if you have a dog, the enclosed dog field is just brilliant, free balls and throwers included.
The pebble beach has fossils to be found.
Brilliant staff, very welcoming.
What a place. Just make sure you take everything you need as it's a few miles from any shops.

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.
