What Visitors Say

Family Party                                 Thank you so much for a wonderful winter stay – Your group accommodation was the perfect place for all our friends to come together. Thoughtfully designed and decorated with an ideal balance of family and twin / double rooms to accommodate everyone, and large communal spaces to eat and enjoy games together. Welcoming, comfortable and warm we didn’t want for anything. The games room and outside play spaces kept the children busy, and the well equipped kitchen kept all us adults super happy.
We will definitely be coming again. Best Wishes

Thank you for your open-hearted welcome we loved the site, the friendly atmosphere, the pizzas, campfires and bushcraft. The penguin song is a new family favourite. Thank you for making the birthday so special see you again.

Thank you for a wonderful few days at your gorgeous campsite. The safari tent was perfect and George ( 12 weeks old) seemed really enjoy his first camping trip. The boys have loved the campsite- perfect for dinosaur games We hope to be back

What an absolute gem this place is- it is abundantly clear the sheer love and passion that Gyles and Alison have injected into this wonderful campsite, it felt like a home away from home. On arrival we were met by both Alison and Gyles who were extremely welcoming and keen to show us around and help us to familiarise ourselves.
Our children had the absolute times of their lives exploring, and there was something new to be discovered around every corner. They loved exploring the woods, finding the dens and playing in the stream, it was so nice to see them just being kids- caked in mud, soaking wet wellies and socks with rosy cheeks from laughing. We weren’t blessed with great summer weather, but donned wellies we did and explored all the same. When the rain was too heavy (we lost a welly and a sock in the mud bog!) we headed for the play barn area which was well equipped with toys, games and puzzles which kept our children occupied for hours, allowing us to sit and read a book in peace 🙂 the cakes available to buy in the barn were delicious.
There is so much space for the children to run around in, the tire swing was also a massive hit as was Gandalf and the hillfort.
The daily ringing of the morning feeding bell was greatly anticipated, and rain or shine our children were out with Gyles (and Hugo!) feeding the animals.
The tent pitches were spacious, and felt private but close enough to not feel excluded from your neighbours. The trees provided great shelter from the rain and the wind, and the area was very well maintained (there were quite a number of tiny thistle plants on the ground though so beware if you’re barefoot). Each pitch has a fire pit area and grates are freely available.
The shop was always well stocked (although you need to be early for the milk) and was reasonably priced.
The pizza night was fantastic, one of the best pizzas I have ever tasted- especially with the fresh home grown basil! The campfire songs after were very entertaining (and athletic!). We didn’t do the bush craft as our children didn’t want to, but it looked and sounded like lots of fun!
One thing we loved was that the tree’s have plaques on them telling you what they are and what can be made from them our children loved learning lots of really interesting facts.
Location wise, this campsite is in a perfect area- remote enough to feel like wild camping with lots of space but close enough to local towns and attractions to get out and about. Gyles was kind enough to lend us some crabbing buckets and nets and we spent a day in near by Abaraeron, crabbing, rock pool hunting and climbing the rocks- the parking is free too! Its also close to New Quay. They have a large map at the site with lots of things to do tacked onto it which was really helpful for visualising where things were, Gyles was incredibly helpful with recommending things to see and do in the local area also.
There are so many things to be written about this campsite, but truly they just don’t do it justice- it was simply amazing on many levels. Our children cried leaving this campsite because they didn’t want to come home, that speaks louder than anything written in a review.

Thank you Alison and Gyles for a wonderful first family camping trip experience, you blew our expectations right out of the water. We will definitely be returning and have already recommended you to many friends.

We have loved our (far too short) stay. It was the perfect place for our 1^st camping trip. We enjoyed the pizza night, feeding the animals, and the nature trail. Lots to do within a short drive too.

Professional and relaxing eco camp site perfect for children and adults.

Communal areas are lovely as are all the facilities. Great pizza and little shop.

Thank you so much

Thanks for two amazing weeks on your campsite. You’ve created an awesome place, the children loved the hill fort, playing with the train in the barn, feeding the animals and making many new friends with the other children even though they cannot speak no English. The recommendations you suggested for the day visits were really helpful. You have created a great community feel.

What can I say fabulous. Beautiful campsite, amazing Safari tents, great breakfast, delicious cakes, wonderful pizza night and campfie singing. everything we hopes for and more. Thank you

What a special place to stay!It is special because you feel so free. You can connect with others but also have loads of private space. We didn’t expect our Dutch speaking children to make so many British friends! We caught crabs at sunset, spotted dolphins, carved sticks, looked at the stars, cuddled around the campfire and relaxed with reflexology by Alison.Thank you for making an environment with such a positive vibe reflecting such a great quality of life.We will definitely be coming again. Best Wishes

Everything exceeded our expectations. It looks even better than the website! All in all an amazing and beautiful place to spend precious time with family

Thank you for an absolutely brilliant week. The campsite is a very special place.  We loved feeding the animals everyday and the play barn was extremely useful in the rain! Delicious breakfast and pizza. We’ve also been inspired to make a few changes to our house and garden. Campfire songs were also big hit.

We live in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty so to find a campsite worth visiting each year says how special this site in west Wales is.We feel relaxed after a week in a safari tent. Thanks you for making us feel so at home and we hope to be back again next year.

PS I would recommend the reflexology it was amazing!

Just a quick email to say thank you for a wonderful week at Naturesbase (August 19 to 26). 

Staying at your farm was like being welcomed into a friendly community of optimistic people and this positivity rubbed-off on all of us over the week (as well as everyone else we met too). It’s even survived the transition back to work & school!

I’ll list a few stand-out events:

The cooked breakfasts! Legendary.

Sharon’s reflexology – she was in tears (in a good way).

The camp-fire sing-along – soooo un-PC but we were all in raptures of laughter.

The pizza – the best we’ve eaten.

The freedom and fun Ben enjoyed.

But perhaps most of all was how approachable you both were. I mentioned to Alison that in my experience with any great hotel/pub/café/restaurant, the owner always has a presence and it’s their hospitality that makes the interaction so good.

We would have loved Ben to have done the bushcraft morning but as the Tuesday promised to be the fine weather day of the week, the lure of Llangrannog proved too much! So maybe next time.

We swapped contact details with two other families and we’re already talking of a return!

All the best.

So much more than just a campsite

We camped at Naturesbase with our 4 children (age 13, 11, 9 & 5) for the first week of the summer holidays. From the moment we arrived we knew this was a very special place. Flat, grassy pitches with plenty of privacy and a fire pit, great communal spaces to eat, play, read and meet people, spotless facilities – and that was before we explored the grounds. Acres of woodland, fields, a stream to paddle in, even a hill fort for the kids to rampage in. Our kids loved feeding the pigs & chickens in the mornings, and the songs around the campfire (after helping make pizza in the wood fired oven) were another big hit. With stunning beaches a short drive away, beautiful countryside all around and the warmest welcome from Gyles & Alison, we honestly couldn’t have asked for anything more. We will definitely be back – and can’t recommend this place highly enough (although part of me wants to keep it secret so booking doesn’t get too difficult!).

Another amazing holiday at Naturesbase. In 20 years of camping this is the only campsite we have visited twice. As soon as we arrived we immediately relaxed. The cakes are to die for.
