About the site


This quiet family-run site is perfect for anyone looking to get back-to-basics and unwind in the Welsh countryside. Just five minutes from West Wales' coastline and beaches, this rural site is surrounded by breathtaking countryside and panoramic views. There are just nine grass pitches for tents only, with no electric. Cars park at the edge of the field to help maintain a peaceful atmosphere around the tents. There is a communal fire pit or you can bring your own fire bowl off the ground for that campfire experience. Across the wider site is an underfloor heated Mongolian yurt with a private wood-fired hot tub for romantic getaways and a secluded static caravan which sleeps four. Fire pits and BBQs are allowed, perfect for evenings of al fresco cooking or toasting marshmallows. Sorry, no dogs onsite.

"This is a little gem, if you are wanting to get back to basics"
