Nantcellan Barns sits on the brow of a hill above the valley leading down to Clarach Bay, near Aberystwyth, Ceredigion. The site offers camping, campervan and caravan pitches alongside an Orchard Cabin and a Furnished Bell Tent, with hand-built timber showers, a toilet block and an outdoor kitchen area. From here you can pick up the coastal footpath at Clarach and walk south to Aberystwyth or north towards Borth, and the beach itself is about twenty minutes on foot, where a seafront cafe-bar serves fish and chips and woodfired pizzas. The operators focus on nature, managing woodland and pastureland for wildlife and grazing animals. Nearby you'll also find Clarach South beach, an amusement park, and Amgueddafa Ceredigion Museum within easy reach.
