“Hopefully these awards will encourage even more visitors to discover all that our beautiful region has to offer this year.”
Nyth Robin, which is owned and run by Grant and Sadie Porter, is an award-winning green holiday site set in seven acres of woodland alongside the Dyfi Estuary.
The site offers a range of options including dome accommodation, a yurt, converted horsebox, woodland cabin and touring pitches. It also features weekend wood-fired pizza nights and opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring the surrounding landscape.
“Whatever type of Welsh holiday you want, you’ll find Nyth Robin in splendid setting,” said Pitchup.com .
Sadie said: “It’s amazing to be recognised in awards like these, especially when they are based on reviews from our guests. It’s also great to know that all the love and hard work that goes into Nyth Robin means customers enjoy staying with us.
“As a small site, it can be hard to stand out from the crowd these days and this recognition certainly helps.”

“Our visitors help us to further develop the park, including our indoor pool and spa complex, due to complete in late 2027 and our solar farm, which will begin producing clean electric within the next few months. With our water being supplied by our own underground springs, we aim to make the park as sustainable as possible.”
