The Ceredigion coastline doesn't get quite the same attention as its neighbour Pembrokeshire which seems unfair given that it has some beautiful beaches and arguably the best ocean wildlife in all of Wales. Places like Llangrannog, Newquay and Aberaeron steal the limelight but there's more to Ceredigion than these.
Sandwiched between Aberporth and Llangrannog is Tresaith, a coastal village built into the steep V-shaped valley of the Afon Saith. Approaching Tresaith from the main Cardigan to Aberystwyth road, I found myself driving down an impossibly steep road through narrow lanes with clumps of foxgloves waving in the breeze either side. Directly ahead was a stunning horizon where blue sky merged with blue sea, the sun sparkling enticingly on the waves.
It's only one road down to the beach and it soon becomes apparent that parking is a bit of a nightmare in the tiny village. On my first visit here it seems a village of two halves. I drive slowly past some very impressive modern-looking houses at the top, with glass windows and balconies facing that beautiful sea view.
