About the site


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's a choice of 6 unique glamping accommodations to choose from. The Yurt & Dome sleep up to 6 people, so perfect for couples, friends and larger families. The Horse Lorry & Bell Tent both sleep up to 4, and for couples looking for a romantic getaway, there's also the Woodland Cabin or Vintage Caravan. 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 all have their own well equipped rustic kitchen so you can enjoy a comfortable stay without the fuss. Plus, there's and firepit and seating outside each accommodation for that all-important marshmallow toasting and star gazing. The Dome, Horse-Lorry, Yurt & Cabin all have wood burners inside to keep guests warm on chillier nights and the Vintage Caravan has a handy electric heater. There are also nine touring pitches, all a good size and all with electric hookups. The four lower terrace pitches are on a separate gravel area, which is great for all weather conditions. The four upper terrace pitches are on grassier terrain and offer a bit more space, and there is also a smaller pitch on its own, suitable for campervans and small motorhomes only. On site, there are well-kept toilets & showers, a washing up area, grey water & elsan empty points. Four-legged friends are welcome in all the glamping accommodation, except the vintage caravan, as well on all touring pitches. Aberdyfi beach has a big sandy beach where dogs can run for miles (and miles!) and has dog-friendly areas all year round. And there are plenty of dog-friendly cafes and pubs afterwards for post-walk refreshments. Nyth Robin also has a fab undercover communal space, which is great for friends and families to hang out in, whatever the weather. This area also has a wood-fired pizza oven, which the owners fire up on busy Saturday nights, and Saturday and Wednesday nights during the summer holidays only - do check in advance if Saturday night pizzas are on during your stay.

A note from the site themselves...

Nyth Robin is owned and run by Sadie & Grant. We fell in love with the site (which was then just a small caravan site) and the area during a holiday to Aberdyfi in 2015. A year and a bit later, we opened as Nyth Robin with a brand new toilet block and our first glamping bell tents. Since then, we continue to enjoy improving and 'upgrading' Nyth Robin. We now have 6 different glamping units and 9 touring pitches, which we think is the perfect size!

The site is a haven for bird life, and we enjoy the constant background chatter of the birds, especially in the spring when you'll most likely be woken up by the dawn chorus!

We are passionate about looking after our environment, and you'll see many reused and upcycled touches around the site. Grant is the master craftsman, enjoying creating spaces and structures, sustainably with wood from our woodlands.

We look forward to welcoming you to our small slice of Welsh heaven soon!

Motorhome - Lower Terrace Touring PitchesApr 2025

What a fabulous campsite! Beautiful location, very natural and well kept, so peaceful and quiet. We loved the ambience, the other campers were friendly and the owner was welcoming. The low-key management of this site suited us very well and there was much beauty in its simplicity. We would definitely stay here again. Our only criticism is we would have preferred separate men's and women's loos/showers, but everything else was 100% to our liking.

Thank you for the review, and lovely to hear you enjoyed your stay.

One night stay, not long enough!

Things to do on site and in the Aberdovey area

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 and crabbing off the pier. 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 trails, and the Mawddach Trail offers a family-friendly and flat cycling option! For road cycling, there are some great routes from the site. Or for the more adventurous, Dyfi Bike Park is the place to go for downhill thrills!

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.

Other recommended places to visit nearby are:

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

Or if you just want to switch off and relax, then Nyth Robin is a great place for this - why not trysome for some forest bathing or meditation?
