Camping
Ynysymaengwyn Camping and Caravan site
Popular site on a former country house estate. Large children's playground, woodland and riverside walks
Cae Du Farm
Tiny, basic site, worthy of a mention due to its stunning clifftop location. The view on a clear day takes in the whole sweep of Cardigan Bay from Strumble Head in Pembrokeshire to Bardsey Island Ynys Enlli off the end of the Lleyn Peninsula. Fabulous sunsets. Not for the faint-hearted in bad weather but spectacular at any time.
