Pitches on site

  • Spacious farm site by the coast 10 minutes' drive from Aberteifi
  • Easy access to Ceredigion Coast Path; 20 minutes' walk from Mwnt beach
  • Sea views and private cove for spotting dolphins and birds
Care to head to Ceredigion, for coastal walks, crowd-free beaches, castles… maybe even catching a glimpse of a passing pod of dolphins? What a cracking idea. And an even more cracking idea is nabbing a few days at Nant-y-croi, on the coast between Aberteifi and Aberporth. If it's easy access to the coast you’re after, you’re in the right place: the Ceredigion Coast Path crosses the farm, for an easy meander to Mwnt beach, 20 minutes away. Even before you set forth for that stroll there are super sea views to be had from the site; gaze out towards the waves for a while and you may well spot the seals, dolphins and seabirds that often pass by these parts. This is a properly peaceful place, but niftily also within easy reach of plenty of ways to fill your West Wales days: more beaches, boat trips, canoeing, golf are all nearby, and you’re well placed for outings to Cilgerran Castle, Cenarth Falls and lots of other scenic spots. For eats, you’re welcome to light up a sea-view barbecue; pick up supplies 10 minutes away in Aberteifi and stash them in the fridge-freezer until it’s coals o’clock. Other amenities on site include a washing-up area, launderette and toilets and showers.

What customers say

Spectacular sea views, direct coastal path access (dolphins spotted!). Spacious sites, clean facilities, friendly owners. Basic amenities/WiFi mentioned, but peaceful atmosphere & beautiful location are huge draws. Many want to return.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked What a fabulous site - so peaceful, wonderful views. Saw at least 20 dolphins and a seal from the cliffs. Simple facilities but spotlessly clean and never had to queue. Run by a friendly and hardworking couple who made sure everything ran smoothly. A lovely atmosphere - all guests were enjoying the scenic surroundings but respectful of each other and keeping the site tidy.

Disliked Nothing - just be aware limited phone reception and WiFi and you’ll get your steps up because it may be a little way to the loos depending on where you pitch. Nearest beach isn’t dog friendly in the summer.

Liked This was the first time Ive been camping in wales and both myself and my son (10) absolutely loved it. The sight was very clean, had everything you need for a trip away also the owners couldn’t do enough for you. We both enjoy walking so having the costal path right on your doorstep was perfect for us.
My son had lots of fun on the park and beach, the views from our pitch were amazing, we even saw dolphins! I will definitely be booking again in the future!

Liked Fantastic campsite in beautiful location with amazing views - shower/toilet/wash-up facilities all very good and cleaned regularly.
20 minute walk to beautiful Mwnt beach along coastal path (great for swimming and SUP).
WiFi reception very good which was an added bonus in an area where phone reception has often poor.
Short drive into Cardigan and Poppit Sands.
Owners very friendly and helpful.
Had a wonderful few days with our ‘gang’ of 13 - seeing the school of dolphins playing in Mwnt Bay a huge highlight🐬🐬🐬
We will definitely be back ❤️

Liked Everything.
We were warmly welcomed right away. Everything was simple, but very clean and well-maintained. The site itself was very spacious and offered a fantastic view! The owners were very accommodating. A great touch was the food truck in the evening serving burgers, and in the morning, baps with coffee or tea. Another highlight was the direct access to the Coastal Path, which led to a beautiful sandy beach within a 30-minute walk. If you're looking for peace and relaxation combined with good service and friendly people, this is the perfect place!

Disliked Nothing.

Local attractions

Mwnt’s your nearest beach (and mighty lovely it is too), but it’s far from the only sandy stretch worth a visit locally. Also on your list should be Tresaith (20 minutes’ drive), Aberporth (20 minutes), Poppit Sands (25 minutes) and Llangrannog (half an hour). Should you be seeking a bit of exercise along with your sea views, there’s a golf course 10 minutes’ drive away, or you can head into Aberteifi for all sorts of aquatic activity, including surf lessons, sea kayak tours, serene days of paddleboarding or adrenaline-packed coasteering adventures. If you’ve not managed to spot dolphins from the site, you may have more luck on a boat trip from New Quay (40 minutes). Guaranteed sightings of friendly farm animals are five minutes’ drive away at Cardigan Island Coastal Farm Park; they’re even friendlier if you feed them. Seals can often be seen basking on the shore here, too. Away from the coast, it’ll take you 20 minutes or so to drive to 13th-century Cilgerran Castle, the Welsh Wildlife Centre and the National Coracle Centre at Cenarth Falls.
