We stayed at this site for 8 days, the views are stunning & the owner is friendly & help full. It is a bit breezy but that is to be expected when so close to the sea.
However on the 5th day the site owner decided to let well excess of 50 sheep into the field, which wasn't a problem at first, but after a couple of days there was sheep poo everywhere & as it was a hot day we were plagued buy the flies everywhere.
Unfortunately this has put us off going back to this site again.
Absolutely beautiful views - friends are lining up to visit having seen my videos of the sunsets across the water. This campsite is huge, so much space and for just a few campers! Lovely site owner, who can tell you the best places to visit - so many little coves and stunning beaches, plus the quaintest of towns. We will be back!
This was our third stay at Cilfforch and it was as lovely as ever. The site is so peaceful with stunning views along the coast and out to sea. The field is extensive, so there is plenty of space to pitch just where you like. Fresh water, Elsan disposal and waste/ recycling are all easily accessible and well maintained. A real gem of a site.
Wow, what a view - Snowdonia right the way around to New Quay! We had the most amazing week! There’s so much to do and see within the local vicinity. The most stunning beaches and coves, cliff top walks, and historic towns full of independent shops. Swimming pool just minutes drive away as well as a brilliant (and cheap) soft play and cafe again minutes away.
We didn’t realise there was no EHU when we booked this in a bit of haste but decided to stay for one night and ended up staying for two! Access is good although we missed the turn in on our first drive by, you then go through two gates into a field of sheep and the view just hits you! This site was used historically as an armament site and we pitched up on a hard standing previously used by gunners. Our nearest neighbours were 20m+ away either side it felt like we had the place to ourselves. The water is one one side of the field and the Elsan is in the bottom corner through a gate, basic but functional. The owner is very welcoming and friendly and is knowledgeable about the area and we were privileged to meet a newborn calf in the next field with John and his dogs. There is access to the coastal paths from the site which unfortunately we were unable to ake advantage of on this visit. This was our first time off-grid and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, so peaceful and the views outstanding (weather permitting!) Would we return here? Most certainly yes!
What a beautiful spot, definitely our favourite CL. The site is so peaceful, no road noise just the sound of the birds and the views are outstanding with spectacular sun sets.
As another reviewer said if you like wild camping you will love this site. The basic facilities are well maintained.
John, the site owner, is very friendly and knowledgeable about the local area.
We will certainly be back!
What a lovely place. We were looking all the time to the sea. And walked part of the costal path towards the charming village Aberaeron. The owner passes by twice a day and is very helpfull. Where to leave waste and black and grey water is well organised and explained. Picking blackberries at the edge of the field and making jam made us even more happy..

If you like wild camping you will love this site. Very basic (does have water and Elsan, no EHU), large field with amazing views out to sea and up the Welsh coast.
You can walk the coastal path into Aberaeron, it takes about 40mins and is up and down but it’s a lovely route and Aberaeron is a lovely place to visit. You can also walk the other way into New Quay but we only stayed 1 night so didn’t have time.
The owner popped round late afternoon to say hello and collect fees, was very friendly and suggested places to visit.
We came for four nights and stayed for two weeks. The most beautiful setting, the sunsets across the water and the view of the entire bay are incredible. So much space, so calm. The owner is a font of local knowledge, through which we discovered many little beaches and places to explore. It is the most wonderful site, and the town of Aberaeron, just down the hill, is lovely. Thank you for an amazing holiday.
