What customers say
Quiet, basic campsite with great views and a chill vibe. Visitors love the friendly owners, short walk to the beach, and clean restrooms. A few noted missing trash cans and no hot water for dishes, but most had a fantastic time and plan to come back.

A lovely little site, just be aware of their dog policy.
Primitive grass RV campsite
Liked Very peaceful, no frills site.
Lovely clean toilets with a nest of swallows!
The sound of all the wild birds in the reedy boundary behind my spot
Close to a wonderful beach -a dogs' paradise- with handy toilets and information centre half way along backed by sand dunes
Also you can walk all to Borth beside a river and along raised banks through reed beds where you can hear what I think were reed buntings/warblers etc.
Disliked I left a day early as a big alsatian dog was also on the site, off lead. My dog can be reactive. I did explain this and asked if the other dog could stay on a lead, but when I returned to the site at the end of the day it ran up and ran in circles round my car. I have since been assured of the wonderful temperament of this particular dog and that well behaved dogs are allowed to run free there.
My own dog did not act aggressively at all and got on well with the hoards of others we met on the beach, but tends to guard his patch and I avoid situations where there is any risk of a dog altercation, which can be horrible, so I decided to leave.
I contacted the owners and they agreed to a refund but in our correspondence it seemed that I was being put at fault for having a reactive dog. One remark was that Nice People Have Nice Dogs. Bit unfair, many nice people adopt dogs which can have all sorts of problems.
I think a lot of people would be un-nerved by a dog like this one being loose, they are after all, guard dogs, so despite assurances, it's natural to be wary. Generally, there is a common sense rule of Dogs on Leads at camp sites. So it would be helpful if the dog policy here was clearly stated with the site information.

From the manager: Sorry you feel like this but we do feel that you are nervous around dogs of the larger breeds and as explained this one was a big softy.
We want everyone to be happy so we access dogs as they come on site, we didn't access your dog as you said it was unpredictable and very territorial. As we have never experienced this problem before we will take on board what you have said
Great site quite site

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback.
We do state that we have no bins, however I did say to you that the chemical disposal was not working and work in progress as someone ran over it and I was behind with my jobs.
However I do take on board what you've said and appreciate your time and honestly.
We hope to see you again in the future.
Many thanks

Liked A beautiful basic campsite with stunning views, a relaxed atmosphere, and plenty of space to unwind. The owners are friendly and welcoming, and the whole site feels quiet and peaceful. The facilities are well kept, with clean toilets - complete with a skyroof where you can watch the birds overhead! A lovely spot for a calm and scenic night away.
