About Nyth Robin

You'll receive a warm welcome at Nyth Robin, which is small in its number of pitches, but big on space. The site's private woodlands are fun to explore and a great place for kids to let off steam. For glampers, there are spacious 5-metre bell tents which sleep up to four people, so great for families or couples. For couples looking for a romantic getaway, there's the cosy woodland cabin. Or there's Bert, a lovely yurt with bespoke touches (including a door frame made from a homegrown oak tree!), sleeping up to six and set in its own secluded area. Ideal for a couple's break or a family escape, it has comfy beds and sofa beds, a private camp kitchen, a wood burner and a lovely fire pit for you to snuggle around. Don't miss the retro revamped horsebox, Betty, which sleeps up to four and includes a toasty wood-burning stove. Or you might like to try a Cerys the vintage caravan all your own with room for up to three and a lovely fire pit outside. All the glamping accommodation is set up in their own areas, so you're sure to enjoy a quiet and peaceful stay. They're all fully furnished with proper beds and double bedding included, and have their own well equipped rustic kitchen so you can enjoy a comfortable stay without the fuss. There are also nine touring pitches, all a good size and all with electric. The four lower terrace pitches are on a separate gravel area, which is great for all weather conditions and the four upper terrace pitches are on grassier terrain and offer a bit more space. Plus you'll share your area with no more than one other party. And there is also a smaller pitch on its own, suitable for campervans and small motorhomes only. Four-legged friends are welcome in all bell tents, the Bert the yurt, Betty the horsebox and on all touring pitches (but not in the cosy hut or vintage caravan). The site's own hound, Rustin, just loves running for miles (and miles!) on Aberdovey Beach, which has dog-friendly areas all year round. Please do keep dogs on a lead when on-site and remember to clean up after them.

Touring pitches are available from March until November. Bell tents are available from May until September. Other glamping accommodations are open from March until October.

A note from the site themselves...

The site is owned and run by Grant and Sadie. We bought the site back in 2016 having fallen in love with the area and location, which then was just a small caravan park. We opened as Nyth Robin in 2017 and haven't stopped going ever since. We are constantly developing and making improvements, always enjoying welcoming guests!

VW-Type Campervan - Small Campervan PitchMar 2024

The site is small and perfectly formed into the beautiful surrounding landscape. Communication was brilliant and we found the site without issue. The small pitch was plenty generous enough for our Ford Custom (no awning) and afforded us a little privacy, though with the size and layout of the site, it all feels quite intimate and private. The showers were hot and pristine! What a treat to wake in the morning with the water running nearby, surrounded by woodland. Sadie and Grant were visible, available, helpful and friendly. This is a quirky gem of a site; we loved it!

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Lower Terrace Touring PitchesSep 2023

Great location not far from beautiful beaches in Aberdyfi. We were on the lower terrace and had maximum of two neighbours during our stay in September. Some nice design touches to a place to meet under cover, near a pizza oven and had we been staying on a Saturday, we would have enjoyed a meal there. The West Coast road north of Aberdyfi and up to Harlech Castle provided at times, some memorable vistas across the coastline. The route back via the more inland A roads were enjoyed by a number of motorcyclists enjoying the twisting turns and views, so I will be returning on two wheels, one of these days. Campsite highly recommended. The showers and WCs were so clean, we decided to use the campsite facilities most of the time rather than those in our vehicle. Wash up area had plastic drainers, each individual shower changing area had 4 hooks, which was a nice attention to detail when you want to hang up clothes and towels etc. The little things that made a difference. In writing this, I realised I didn't take any photos of the campsite, but I took photos of the local beach, the coast road up towards Harlech and a photo of Much Wenlock, where we checked out The George & Dragon pub whilst sightseeing.

Motorhome - Lower Terrace Touring PitchesJul 2023

We had a wonderful stay at this quiet and magical campsite. It felt like we were truly living in a little forest. The owners are very friendly and the attention to detail on all aspects was so wonderful. There is a huge shelter to sit under with tables and chairs for rainy days, which has a pizza oven and pizza nights twice a week - the pizzas are delicious! With rope swings, a small football pitch and woods to explore, the children were happy. The toilet and shower block were always clean. We loved our stay and will be back!

FAQ

Check-in is from 1pm to 9pm for touring, and from 4pm to 9pm for glamping. You must vacate your pitch before noon on your last day or by 10am if glamping

Yes, up to two dogs are welcome on all camping and glamping accommodation, excluding the cosy hut and vintage caravan - they must be kept on a lead whilst onsite. Aberdovey beach is less than a ten minute drive from the site, and has dog friendly areas ideal for walking your pet.

Guests are welcome to bring their own BBQs and fire pits, provided they are kept raised off the ground - open campfires are not permitted. If glamping, a fire pit is provided outside all bell tents and the vintage caravan.

Aberdovey's vibrant seaside town can be reached in only three miles from the site. Spend the day roaming the pier with the kids before topping up your tan at the beach, or enjoy a donkey ride! There is access to the Wales Coast Path from the site too - ideal for treks through spectacular coastal scenery. Adventure seekers should head to Cadair Idris nearby too, with outstanding views from the summit.

You can bring an awning with you for touring but gazebos and pup tents are not permitted.


The pretty seaside village of Aberdovey is just 3 miles away and offers good old fashioned seaside fun. Kids love a day on the sandy beach, crabbing off the pier and donkey rides. Like any seaside village worth its salt, it offers great ice cream and fish and chips. There are also art and gift shops, cafes, great restaurants and three (yes, three) pubs to choose from!

If walking's your thing, then the Wales Coast Path can be accessed from site. Aberdyfi is about a 2 hour walk with stunning views over the Welsh hills and the Dyfi Estuary. For something more adventurous, the walk up nearby Cadair Idris (the second largest summit in Wales) is a rewarding climb.

For fun on two wheels, there's plenty of off road choice for all levels and ages at Coed Y Brenin. The nearby Dyfi Forest has some awesome downhill trails and the Mawddach Trail offers a family friendly, and flat cycling option! For road cycling, there's some great routes from the site.

Jump on the Cambrian Coast railway line at Aberdyfi or Machynlleth and enjoy the breathtaking scenery as it hugs the Cardigan bay coast line all the way to Pwllehi - why not stop off at Barmouth or Harlech Castle?

Or take a step back in time with the famous steam trains on the Tal-Y-Llyn railway line and stop off at Dolgoch for a very pretty walk to the waterfalls.

If a relaxing holiday is your cup of tea, then Nyth Robin has some great spots for kicking back and simply doing nothing.

Other recommended places to visit nearby are:

  • Centre of Alternative Technology
  • The market town of Machynlleth - market day is Wednesday
  • Visit Dyfi Distillery for award winning craft gin
  • Osprey spotting (and more) in the Glaslyn Valley
  • Myths and the legends at King Arthur's Labyrinth.
