3-star holiday park with private hot tubs and sea views on Clarach Bay

Private Lodges with Hot Tubs

Guests stay in gold and platinum lodges on Skates Way, many offering private hot tubs on a covered deck. The two-bedroom platinum pet spa lodge includes a washing machine, dishwasher, and a Tassimo coffee machine with pods. Accommodation has en-suite toilets in the master bedroom and a large sofa bed in the lounge.

On-Site Dining and Bar

The waterfront clubhouse serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with panoramic views across the bay. Meals include steak and ale pie, hunters chicken, and Sunday carvery at lunchtime. The bar offers Hoffmeister beer on draught, Sky Sports on multiple screens, and dog-friendly seating in the snug area.

Family and Children Facilities

The on-site swimming pool is open 10 am to 4 pm with an adults-only hour from 9 am to 10 am. Children can play on a pirate ship sand park or in a small games room with air hockey and a pool table. The beach at Clarach Bay, a two-minute walk away, has a small fairground with rides that take pound coins.

Pet-Friendly Amenities

Dogs are allowed in the clubhouse restaurant, in the snug area, and across the entire site. Each pet-friendly lodge includes a dog welcome pack with toys, a blanket, and a travel bowl. The pebble beach at Clarach Bay is dog-friendly and lies a short walk from the accommodation.

Price and Value

Accommodation rates include a £50 refundable deposit returned after check-out. The clubhouse offers food at prices lower than most bars in Aberystwyth, with a large breakfast at £8.50 and pancakes with Nutella for children at £5.50. Guests receive a complimentary box with tea, coffee, milk, dishwasher tablets, and washing up liquid on arrival.

Highlights

Hot tub: Private hot tub included with gold and platinum lodges

Location: Right on Clarach Bay, two-minute walk to pebble beach

Dining: Waterfront clubhouse with Sunday carvery and Sky Sports

Family: Pirate ship sand park, games room, and swimming pool

Pets: Dog welcome pack and dog-friendly seating indoors

“Aber Bay Holiday Park strikes me as a well-maintained and welcoming base for exploring the Welsh coast, especially for those travelling with dogs. The newer mobile homes seem particularly well-equipped, and the on-site pool and clubhouse are definite perks. It's a place where practicality meets coastal charm.”
