3 nights at Ffosygrafel Isaf Camping

This is a beautiful campsite, in a remote and peaceful location, with great amenities. We stayed in the shepherds' hut, which was extremely cosy. Ruth and Jono are friendly and welcoming, and we would both come back again and also recommend it to anyone looking for a serene campsite in a beautiful setting.

Weekend Trip to Nantcellan Barns

A lovely basic campsite, a short walk to Clarach bay and more strenuous on over the headland to Aberystwyth. Love the open air shower and I would certainly use the site again if I was coming to the area

Weekend Trip to Bolmynydd Camping Park

Excellent facilities , I love this campsite if you get the right pitch you get a lovely view of the sea in the distance . I would highly recommend this place.

Weekend Trip to Bolmynydd Camping Park

Very clean and tidy and great facilities for showering and washing up. Hot drink machine and freezer and microwave for guest use. Near to Llanbedrog beach - 10 minute walk down hill also a car park near the beach if you don’t fancy the walk

2 nights at Nantcellan Barns

Lovely area to stay, quiet and peaceful. Walked from the campsite to the beach and then into Aberystwyth. Will be back again!

1 night at Bryn Ifan Camping

I came during a downpour and was glad for the facilities available. I took shelter in the lovely big barn and had access to a place to prep my meals and do my dishes without getting wet. Toilets and showers were located next to it and a short walk away were the parking and campsites. Everything was within easy reach, I didn't think it was difficult to move things from my car to my tent. No long walks or steep climbs. I couldn't have been happier with my stay.

2 nights at Smugglers Cove Boatyard

Beautiful views and location , great pitch for tents , good amenities

Weekend Trip to Tan-y-Capel Hideaway

We had the most wonderful time at Tan-y-Capel Hideaway. It is stunning in every single way. The views are never ending! Rebecca and Dave were such welcoming hosts, going above and beyond to make us welcome and give us all the local information so we could make the most of our time there. A trip to the Ty Coch Inn is a must, set on a National Trust beach. I will definitely be visiting again and would highly recommend a trip

3 nights at Bolmynydd Camping Park

great campsite quite & very clean ! my secound visit & will be back

Weekend Trip to Bryn Ifan Camping

We’ve just had a fabulous two nights staying at this magical campsite. What a great find! The site is so beautiful and well maintained and has the best views of any campsite I’ve stayed at. We loved the way the site is set up, the high grass and wildflowers between pitches and watching the sun set over the sea in the evening. The facilities are great too, toilets clean and well maintained and showers lovely. The barn is such a great space too and the games an added bonus. The hosts were so welcoming and helpful also. We will definitely be coming back! :-)

1 night at Plas yn Llangoed

Weekend Trip to Smugglers Cove Boatyard

The site is in a fantastic location, the boat had everything we needed, the site facilities were very good, the woodburner was wonderful, we loved seeing occasional trains go past, our reactive rescue dog loved having the beach areaa to himself. A problem was sorted out within half an hour.

Weekend Trip to Gwerniago Camping Site

The campsite was really easy to find and had gorgeous views. It was nice and spacious so we didn’t on top of other families. It was very windy but would be the time of year. The toilets and shower block is clean and a nice washing up facility for dishes. There are fridges available to use and taps near the non electric pitches too. We also used a fire pit which was great to end our visit. We would like to come back as it’s close to lots of great hikes and bike parks!

Weekend Trip to Bryn Ifan Camping

4 nights at Smugglers Cove Boatyard

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on The Hannah! The location is absolutely stunning and the boat stay was a brilliant change from our usual tent camping. After a few bumped heads from the lower cabin inside, we quickly got used to life aboard. The boat is well equipped with plenty of your basics and some thoughtful additions (including a cool looking radio/CD player). Sophie was a brilliant host and very quickly sorted out a query for us (thank you!!!). Pretty much all of our time, though, was spent outside soaking up the stunning views, watching the birdlife (including one the local Ospreys!) and cooking on the firepit. In the evenings we regularly heard a Nightjar and Tawny Owls, it really was wonderful. The information pack emailed to us recommended a train trip from nearby Penhelig station to Barmouth on the Cambrian Coast Line. We did this and would recommend this too! Beautiful journey with gorgeous views on either side. If you’re looking for a break away from the usual, it’s definitely well worth a stay at Smuggler’s Cove.

3 nights at Plas yn Llangoed

Emily is a fantastic host and the camping here is simply stunning. The facilities on site are exemplary, we made good use of the communal fire pit and free firewood and charcoal for the barbecue. There is fridge space for all, usb sockets for phone charging, squeaky clean showers and loos, coffee and croissants in the morning and it's all eco friendly too, and did I mention that the view is to die for. The camping field is also very flat, the spaces are a decent size and spread out and the site is just delightful and very relaxing. Emily and her family have worked so hard to make every campers stay very happy and one they will never forget. We had a great three night stay midweek in May and will definitely be back, we just loved it here so much

2 nights at Smugglers Cove Boatyard

This was absolutely right up our street - quirky, amazing views, relaxedn with a great ambience from the record player (cant beat a bit of Matt Monro!). HIghly recommend as an unusual stay away from it all. Our dog loved it as well.

Weekend Trip to Camp at Nantgwynfaen Organic Farm

We booked ‘sun of a pitch’ for two nights. It was a peaceful, quiet pitch with just the sound of the birds for company and beautiful views over the valley. There was a private outside shower which was fab and your own flushing toilet too. The ground on the pitch was quite hard so you need good tent pegs but we were advised about that in an email before hand so no problems there. I love quiet , secluded campsites so this was perfect and we will definitely stay there again. Amanda was helpful and friendly, there was a good onsite shop. This was honestly one of my favourite campsites we have stayed at .

Weekend Trip to Smugglers Cove Boatyard

Beautiful scenery on a secluded pitch which felt like wild camping but had the benefit of clean toilet and shower facilities. We were extremely fortunate with lovely sunny weather too. It doesn't have the ability to be too busy. It's such a small site which was perfect for us.
