Short and simple but nice viewpoint. Same route as others.Herbert Anchovy26/07/2021
You can park just before the train station then carry on up the track. You come to a farm then go through the gate which is a footpath. Then make a right, past some barns. Over the gate and turn left up the short hill. You'd only do it to tick it off the list.Skarletk22/06/2021
Parked as jonglew. Turned right past farmhouse on track to gate then back at 180 degrees through grass. No gorse was injured in this ascent.catman21/10/2020

As per Alex. Drizzly Sun pmRHW22/09/2018
A nice straightforward top with fine views over Cardigan Bay. Best approach is to turn right at the track junction immediately after the farmhouse. Continue to the end of the outbuildings, and a break in the gorse will give access to rough pasture and it's straight up to the top of the Tump from there.Alex C08/03/2018
