Weekend Trip to Pytingwyn Woods

What a gorgeous site - at one side a babbling brook, that you can hear as you fall asleep, to pairs of Red Kites and Buzzards wheeling overhead - and flocks of Goldfinches hopping about the grasses in the meadow and field. The weather was very good and I fell asleep watching bats and the moon rise, with the van door open all night. There's already stone fire pits, a compostable loo, and a lovely area where you can pitch up and enjoy the woods and the area, in peace and quiet. David is the owner and is lovely, so very helpful, which I appreciated loads. I can see why this little slice of heaven has been nominated for awards - and I'd suggest that people come and visit to try it out for themselves.

Lovely unfussy campsite. Great location. Friendly reception. Highly recommended.

1 night at Girt Down Camping

Girt DOWN FARM ..... Beautiful, relaxing and stunning surroundings of views of the coast. The sunset and sunrise were stunning. Stargazing is a must. Lovely to chat to Paul and Lesley whilst they are going about their daily farming. They have a wealth of knowledge of the area. Their fresh hens eggs were amazing. We had a lovely breakfast roll in the morning too. Showers, toilets and washing up area are lovely and clean. Fresh spring water out of the tap. There is an old railway carriage to chill, charge your phone and a fridge freezer. Firepits & Wood and you can also BBQ. This is such a lovely and friendly farm. A great place for families, couples or Trekkers. You can chill & unwind with a book, plenty of wildlife and birds. There are walks out of the farm, take a stroll up to Great Hangman or a carry on to Little Hangman which was about an hour. Again the views of the coasts are stunning at the top. You can carry on walking which takes you to Combe Martin beach, cafes, chippy, shops and a butchers. Or walk the other way to Heddons mouth which takes about 4 hours but so worth it..... beach, a pint and a lovely meal. Girt farm is surrounded by so much to do locally, local produce, quaint villages, Exmoor and walks galore. There are Buses from Combe Martin which go both ways up and down the coasts. I would highly recommended. AND We will be back for a longer stay next time. A REAL HIDDEN 💎 GEM. 🏕

Weekend Trip to Girt Down Camping

Gorgeous views of the coast and camping just as it should be - back to basics with acres of space but perfectly adequate and clean facilities. The coast path is just a few minutes away from the site and there are some incredible views to be had from Little Hangman. The Heddon Valley is close by too and definitely worth visiting. The coast path here is seriously hilly, but with views like this, it is well worth the effort.

Weekend Trip to Parke Farm Camping

I loved camping here. Extremely welcoming hosts. Very friendly. Beautiful campsite with stunning views and fantastic facilities

Weekend Trip to Red Sky at Night Campsite

Lovely spot for camping with great scenery. Great for the sunset and seeing the stars at. Good facilities for the price paid

Weekend Trip to Panpwnton Campsite

This campsite is kept really well and it’s clear that it’s been treated as a business by the owners, facilities are very clean and great shower/toilet block. There’s a great walk by the river/woods close by. We really enjoyed the stay.. would recommend!

Weekend Trip to Pytingwyn Woods

My 8 year old loves making dens and bases and has heard about wild camping that my wife and I used to do and wanted to do some himself. Since he isn’t quite up to a proper expedition at his age I went looking for a campsite where we could give him a taste of it and found this place. We camped in the woods within a few metres of the river. We cooked over fires and slept under a tarp shelter between trees, boiled water from the river and in his eyes lived in the wilderness for a couple of days. Just what we were after.

Weekend Trip to Girt Down Camping

Amazing views from all of the pitches and good amenities. Lovely hosts.

Weekend Trip to Meldon Lake and Woods Wild Camping

Great place as stated it is narrow further down our t5 managed no problem definitely best with a mildly off road type vehicle stone track leads to an amazing space we parked further round than the other few campers the bridle way was quite busy but people walking by were friendly . We took our own Porto a loo ( essential ) Very clean seems people who stay are respectful

4 nights at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

Beautiful campsite with wonderful views. Wild flower meadow lovely. Limited pitches mean you feel alone. There are no bins.

2 nights at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

Beautiful pitch, best view ever, ample space, and lovely hosts!

2 nights at Mynydd Mawr

Hard to find initially so follow the directions given, although they weren’t that great to be honest. Follow the headland and not the postcode, site is last one on the left if you keep going past where the post code leads you too. However the site is good, great views when you can see them. We had bad weather but on the occasions it was nice the view was lovely. Very basic site, but very clean and well kept and I would say decent value for money. Not sure we’d stay again but that’s just due to the fact that we prefer places closer to beach access for the kids, although have to say they were happy as can be so no complaints from them! Showers cost 50p for 3 minutes so bring plenty with you as we didn’t know this and struggled to get enough from shops to serve a family of 4

Weekend Trip to Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

2 nights at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

We had a really wonderful stay in the bell tent. Highly recommend and we will be back. Thank you Pridie!

2 nights at Girt Down Camping

Loved my stay here this week! I went with my beagle and we both enjoyed the hugs of coast and countryside—peaceful walks, lots of beautiful wildlife, stunning views high in the hillside looking down through the valley to the sea, and a private, relaxing space to unwind. Lesley and Paul were incredibly warm and welcoming, and when I had some unexpected car trouble, they made sure I felt comfortable to ask if I needed anything - I had everything I needed already provided! It’s truly a special spot ☺️🐶🍃🌊

Ar y Mwny Camping Wild Wales

10 units · Motorhomes, Tents3 acres · Wales

Secluded camping, campfires, coast and country. Head west through Wales to the coast and somewhere by the south east corner of Ireland is the beautiful region of Pembrokeshire. Halfway between the smallest cathedral city in the realm and the site of the last invasion of Britain by their Gallic neighbours is the idyll of Sir Benfro. Once in Trevine or Trefin, there is a long bumpy lane with no tarmac. Watch that sat nav go into the blue, and you too can be Ar y Mwny. Make your camp nestled on a gentle hillside, with panoramic views of the sea and countryside. Located just about as far away from any roads as its possible to get in this part of Pembrokeshire, yet still only a short walk to the coast via footpaths. Being situated amongst several hundred acres of farmland, we not only have inspirational views but also the blessing of unobstructed sunrises and sunsets, followed by a wide open starscape. Its possible to take the wildlife for granted, but across the seasons we can delight in the bird flocks, and casually greet the resident buzzards and foxes and the family of Jac y Do that have raised their young here over several decades. And now, the little birds are managing to flourish too. We live here in harmony, and are thankful for the space. Forget that clock. For each pitch there is: Drinking Water Taps Stone Firepit with Old Field Stones to rebuild your own if required. Good firewood available to buy by the basket. Toilets and Showers, currently consisting of: A main toilet block with three toilets with wash basins - each in family-sized rooms. A Ty Bach Toilet Cubicle (water flushing, not chemical). A main shower block with a hot shower and toilet - our own Blue Lagoon cabin. A hot power shower and toilet enclosure. Also available are: A utility room for hot washing up, and a wash and dry laundry option. Fridge / Freezers for ice packs and anything else you might wish to keep cool. A microwave, and phone charging lockers. Recycling Centre with Bins for rubbish and Recycling Boxes that get Emptied Toilet Cassette Emptying and rinsing Facility if you need Electrical Appliances ( phones, lanterns, batteries etc ) may be Charged for Free.
