Over 60 holidaymakers were evacuated from their caravans when a fire broke out at a holiday park in Ceredigion. | |
Eight fire engines were sent to the building blaze at Sea Rivers Caravan Park, Ynyslas, near Aberystwyth. | |
Site owner Michelle South said firefighters brought the blaze under control quickly. She said it was contained to a machinery storage unit. | |
Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service received the 999 callout at about 02:20 BST on Thursday. | |
Ms South said: "The priority was to get everyone out of their caravans and make sure everyone was calm. We now want to focus on everyone enjoying the rest of their holidays." | |
Holidaymakers Sam and Shadina Dolsun alerted neighbouring caravans after being woken by "loads of bangs" caused by fire. | |
"We were just lucky the wind was blowing the right way so it didn't catch anyone's caravan," they said. |
