We have just returned from a 13 night stay at Pen Yr Orsedd.
We have been visiting this area for a number of years, staying at a CL site. Our usual site closed after we had booked, so we found ourselves searching for a new one and we were highly satisfied with our 'new' site.
On arrival, we were greeted by Tony, who we felt comfortable with straight away. A very friendly, helpful host, who went out of his way to make sure that we had everything we needed during our stay.
The site is situated at the back of Mandy and Tony's house, hidden from the road. There are three gates to go through to get to the camping field. The field is totally fenced and we were very fortunate to have the field to ourselves, so we could let our dog roam free, knowing that she couldn't escape.
The toilets and shower were spotlessly clean with a cold water tap in each of the toilets. The shower cubicle was spacious and there was ample space to get dried and dressed. We even had the luxury of an electric light.
There was a mobile home on site, which is also fenced and separate to the caravan field, again in well maintained, cared for surroundings. The fence was decorated in bunting, which Mandy makes herself, a very pretty sight.
There are donkey's, horses, sheep, chicken's and dog's, totally separate to the site and lovely to look at. The view from the site is amazing, rolling hills and mountains in the distance. We walked miles on the coastal path and only used our car on the days we needed supplies. We bought a family roamer ticket one day and took the train to Aberystwyth - a long journey but lovely scenery along the way.
Our middle weekend was 'stormy' strong winds and heavy rain. We batted down the hatches and prayed that the awning would stand up to the Welsh weather. We were very touched by Mandy and Tony's offer to sleep in their mobile home, they had seen the forecast and kindly offered us their beds. We declined, the kids slept all night in the awning, we lay awake thinking we were on a boat!
A fantastic site for a get away from it all holiday, friendly hosts who have a genuine love for people..... and dogs!
We were so impressed with everything about this site that we were glad our previous site decided to close. We hope to make Pen Yr Orsedd our regular site, and at £13 a night it is fabulous!!!
Thank you Mandy and Tony for sharing your wonderful world with us!
See you next year!!!!!
