View on Google MapsPhoto: Tŷ Cwch
Cwmtydu beach lies just a short walk from Ty Cwch Caban 2, a one-bedroom hostel made from stacked shipping containers. The location puts you within reach of Ceredigion's coastal path and the activities the stretch supports—kayaking, coasteering, mountain biking and paragliding are all possible from here. The village of Llandysul sits inland, with further countryside and small settlements across the county.
The property sleeps four across a bedroom with two bunk beds, alongside two bathrooms (one with a shower cubicle). Downstairs holds a living room with games, a separate dining room and a well-equipped kitchen; there is also a utility room with a washing machine. A garden with barbecue and secure bike storage sit outside, with private parking on site. Electricity, wi-fi and heating via a ground source heat pump are included. You have the whole property to yourself. One pet stays free.
The structure is built for groups or families wanting a base for activity-focused time rather than a traditional holiday cottage. Bring your own towels and bedding. No smoking inside.

A wonderful place to stay, nice host but he lives off site so we didn't interact in person. Well equipped kitchen, good utility room. The beds in the three sleeping pods are comfortable and there is a huge open plan ground floor living space under the sails.

Truly special. If you like your bare feet on the floor, spending your time meeting new people, being by the sea and the beach and spending the evening around a fire then this is perfect for you! The location is amazing right on the beach, with views out across the cove. Concept of the container units works superbly well. Sleeping cabins well insulated, dark and the wider single beds are spacious and comfy. Shower is hot and two shower rooms works well. Communal area is spacious and kitchen well equipped. Outdoor gear to use in abundance. Commend the owners for having this available for all to use. Having spent years and years holidaying and hiking in North Wales I was stunned how beautiful the mid-wales coast is. Only there for two nights, but spent a full day on Aberporth beach that is perfect for little ones. Calm cove and amenities close to the beach. Day was capped off watching a pod of dolphins breaching in the cove. Spent the following day in New Quay. Would stay for longer next time. Place would be great for a few families together or outdoors groups. Thanks for creating it for us :-)

We had an amazing weekend at Cwmtydu!! The location was stunning… 2 mins walk to the beach. There was a small village shop with some essentials. The accommodation itself was perfect for our group. Lots of space and great facilities. The living area and kitchen are well kitted out and spacious. The sleeping area is a little like dormitories and got a little stuffy but the bunk beds were very comfortable. All in all we had an absolutely brilliant weekend and would 100% come and stay again. Nigel was also very kind and helpful from start to finish and a great host. Great communication.

We love this place and have returned … there’s is so much to do if it’s sunny and at night it is peaceful and quiet. There are great walks in every direction and it’s a beautiful location. Loved on one occasion we were able to open up all the front as the weather was great and it was fabulous….people kept stopping to ask about the venue. Bonus is the use of the kayak and life jackets, we took our own boat as well and had a great time in the sea, no beach but it’s great for the kayaks. Everything you need in the kitchen although it’s a bit of a squeeze if lots cooking. Bedrooms are ok, beds comfy enough room only downside is getting up in the night for toilet. Showers suitable. We love this place and great value. Would only hire the whole place though but we are a big family. One time the code didn’t work but host was really helpful
