It is set in the most beautiful surroundings, teaming with wild life and filled with wild orchids and many different species of grasses and wildflowers. It is unique and a treat for people who love natural habitat. The sea is about two miles away where there are spectacular cliff walks for many miles on the Pembrokeshire coast path, and beautiful beaches for swimming. Bring logs and kindling with you. (Can be bought from any garage) If you bring a cool box we can top you up with frozen ice packs. Just ask. NO LOUD PARTIES Guest access Acres of land and woodland, kitchen shack, compost loo, shower hut, pond.

Great way to enjoy easy access to some of the best coast line in Britain . Amazing art work too!" Jenny

This was our second time staying here, and it was even more special than the first time. Every second is something to cherish. Hosts are lovely, warm and very welcoming. Facilities are outstanding, with communal kitchen and games rooms with had a pool table, air hockey and the means to play table tennis. The pod was warm, comfortable and homely. We cannot wait to stay again. Perfect getaway.

Our second stay and even more perfect, the camper van pitch is secluded and quiet, the decking and fire pit beautiful touches for relaxing outside of the van. We were very pleasantly surprised at just how warm the showers were despite the wind and cold and the roundhouse is lovely. To top it all it’s easy to get to the coast path and marvel at the dramatic coastline. 💕

Lovely rural sight with lots of choice of pitches. Although you have to choose before you go so you may not realize how close to the toilets you'll be or whether you are in an exposed spot. We got a strong wind up the top, but it was October. There are great views from the top field. The toilets and shower facilities are very good and spotless. There is a beautiful ( but not easy) walk down through the woods to the sandy burroughs and beach, which was difficult for us with some physical disabilities. You could not get a wheel chair down there. Great place for people who love walking, nature and rare plants. Great for families.

1 night at Ffosygrafel Isaf Camping

We recently camped at this enchanting site with our two children, aged 8, 9, and our dog. From the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into a fairy tale, complete with a beautifully crafted communal campfire hobbit house. Despite stormy weather, the cozy atmosphere of the hobbit house provided the perfect retreat for family bonding. The camping pitches were well-groomed, flat, and sheltered, ensuring a comfortable experience. The facilities were impressively clean, far exceeding our expectations for compostable toilets, and the warm showers offered a refreshing luxury after a day of outdoor fun. A highlight was the hobbit hut, featuring warm water for dishwashing, making it feel like a home away from home. The food prep space and cozy seating area encouraged board games and reading, keeping our kids entertained for hours. With stunning dark skies at night, the site is perfect for stargazing—bringing a telescope is recommended. The welcoming owners added to the friendly atmosphere that made our experience special. Conveniently located for day trips to Aberystwyth or Borth, there is a shop around 1 mile away, though we suggest bringing marshmallows and wood for the campfire. The owner sells firewood, ensuring you can enjoy magical evenings around the fire. The children loved playing on the swing and running in haystacks, while our dog received a warm welcome, making it a truly family-friendly location. Overall, this campsite was the highlight of our summer.

Really great campsite! We pitched our bell tent in the woodland where they have only 5 spaces available. I loved staying in the woods rather than in an open field. The lighting at night was magical and the facilities were fab which you only share with the 5 pitches on site so we're never crowded. We listened to the owls at night and ravens by day (my favorite bird so I was really chuffed). We used the pizza oven but unfortunately didn't get time to book the sauna - next time! My 3 kids loved the play area and tried really hard to stay up late enough to use the star gazing chairs. Location worked really well for us, we headed to the beach on the west coast, did the 4 waterfalls walk and the show caves too. We would love to try the treehouse next time, it looks epic! Thank you for a lovely holiday! It was our first visit to Wales and we'll definitely come again.

Weekend Trip to Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

It was my first time at a campsite and it was a great experience. The pitches are far apart from each other so you get a lot of privacy. Each pitch is leveled and comes with a firepit. The views are gorgeous. I wish there were more toilets as often we had to wait. The toilet is not separate from the shower so if someone is showering the toilet becomes unavailable. I was happy to use the compost toilet but my girlfriend preferred the flushable one. Would definitely camp here again.
