This campsite is a hidden gem for those seeking a peaceful, back-to-nature experience with stunning views and easy access to the coast. It consistently earns praise for its quiet, tranquil atmosphere and spacious, flat pitches that offer plenty of privacy. Many visitors become repeat guests, drawn by the beautiful, unspoiled surroundings and the friendly, laid-back owners. A unique highlight is the open-air, gas-powered hot showers, often described as liberating and amazing, though the lack of a roof can be awkward in wet weather or busy periods. Basic toilet facilities are generally clean but simple, with cold water and no soap. A covered communal shelter provides a kitchen area, gas hobs, and washing-up sinks, offering welcome shelter in bad weather. The location is ideal, with a short walk to Clarach Bay and the beach, which features amusements, food stalls, and a dog-friendly sandy area. Coastal walks and cliff paths are easily accessible, and the site sits conveniently between Aberystwyth and Borth. The absence of WiFi and electric hookups enhances the off-grid, back-to-nature feel that many appreciate. However, some guests feel the price is high given the very basic amenities. Waste disposal requires campers to take rubbish home unless arrangements are made with the owners, which can be inconvenient for those walking or cycling. The entrance can be tricky to find, with poor signage, but it is manageable once you know it. A few reviews mention that noise from other campers playing loud music late at night conflicts with the advertised quiet policy. Some guests also noted that certain site rules regarding noise and dogs were not enforced. The open portaloo facilities receive mixed comments: some find them adequate, while others consider them too basic. Access to the beach involves a road without a footpath, which may not be ideal for families with children or dogs. Overall, the site delights those seeking simple, scenic camping, but may disappoint those expecting more amenities or consistent quiet hours.
