  • Spacious farm site by the coast 10 minutes' drive from Aberteifi
  • Easy access to Ceredigion Coast Path; 20 minutes' walk from Mwnt beach
  • Sea views and private cove for spotting dolphins and birds
Care to head to Ceredigion, for coastal walks, crowd-free beaches, castles… maybe even catching a glimpse of a passing pod of dolphins? What a cracking idea. And an even more cracking idea is nabbing a few days at Nant-y-croi, on the coast between Aberteifi and Aberporth. If it's easy access to the coast you’re after, you’re in the right place: the Ceredigion Coast Path crosses the farm, for an easy meander to Mwnt beach, 20 minutes away. Even before you set forth for that stroll there are super sea views to be had from the site; gaze out towards the waves for a while and you may well spot the seals, dolphins and seabirds that often pass by these parts. This is a properly peaceful place, but niftily also within easy reach of plenty of ways to fill your West Wales days: more beaches, boat trips, canoeing, golf are all nearby, and you’re well placed for outings to Cilgerran Castle, Cenarth Falls and lots of other scenic spots. For eats, you’re welcome to light up a sea-view barbecue; pick up supplies 10 minutes away in Aberteifi and stash them in the fridge-freezer until it’s coals o’clock. Other amenities on site include a washing-up area, launderette and toilets and showers.

What customers say

Spectacular sea views & coastal path access, with dolphin sightings! Spacious pitches, clean facilities, and super friendly owners. Basic amenities & patchy WiFi are minor points against a peaceful, stunning spot. Most travellers can't wait to return.

Liked Beautiful stunning views and walks. Friendly welcome, not overcrowded. Lovely peaceful setting to relax and unwind as a couple or family. Great size pitches with room for kids to run if you have them. We went as a couple but would go back. Just a lovely relaxing break away we saw seals on the coastal walk every day. Stunning place. Please bare in mind you are on a working farm so donkeys , sheep , cows , which we loved but others might not like donkeys chatting over the fences 😂🥰 what a lovely little hidden gem 💎

Disliked Not enough showers and they are in desperate need of upgrading. This is the only let down on this site. The rest is perfect. It did not put us of coming back but would be nice to see more showers or even just upgrade the one they have.

Liked Amazing! The space and the views were fab, totally uncrowded even on bank holiday weekend. Very relaxing, particularly when the dolphins swam by (many times). Highly recommend a walk to Mwnt for a swim, and to Gwebert for a drink on the hotel patio.

Liked Lovely site. Good clean facilities. Very helpful and friendly owners. We stayed on a level hard standing ehu pitch with a sea view, even spotted dolphins from here one morning.
The large grass fields which lead down to the sea have a more wild camping feel about them, plenty of flat areas and there is a portaloo in the middle field. Great little cove at the bottom to watch dolphins from.

Liked What a fabulous site - so peaceful, wonderful views. Saw at least 20 dolphins and a seal from the cliffs. Simple facilities but spotlessly clean and never had to queue. Run by a friendly and hardworking couple who made sure everything ran smoothly. A lovely atmosphere - all guests were enjoying the scenic surroundings but respectful of each other and keeping the site tidy.

Disliked Nothing - just be aware limited phone reception and WiFi and you’ll get your steps up because it may be a little way to the loos depending on where you pitch. Nearest beach isn’t dog friendly in the summer.

Local attractions

Mwnt’s your nearest beach (and mighty lovely it is too), but it’s far from the only sandy stretch worth a visit locally. Also on your list should be Tresaith (20 minutes’ drive), Aberporth (20 minutes), Poppit Sands (25 minutes) and Llangrannog (half an hour). Should you be seeking a bit of exercise along with your sea views, there’s a golf course 10 minutes’ drive away, or you can head into Aberteifi for all sorts of aquatic activity, including surf lessons, sea kayak tours, serene days of paddleboarding or adrenaline-packed coasteering adventures. If you’ve not managed to spot dolphins from the site, you may have more luck on a boat trip from New Quay (40 minutes). Guaranteed sightings of friendly farm animals are five minutes’ drive away at Cardigan Island Coastal Farm Park; they’re even friendlier if you feed them. Seals can often be seen basking on the shore here, too. Away from the coast, it’ll take you 20 minutes or so to drive to 13th-century Cilgerran Castle, the Welsh Wildlife Centre and the National Coracle Centre at Cenarth Falls.
