Non-electric camping field with sea views

Family-friendly Ceredigion campsite with spectacular Irish Sea views
Penbryn Beach five minutes’ drive; National Wool Museum 20 minutes
Dog-friendly site with a secure exercise area; pub 10 minutes’ drive

A combination of Irish Sea panoramas and the proximity of a choice of beaches for the kids makes Plas Y Wern an irresistible family-friendly Ceredigion camping choice. Set on seven acres of farmland high on a headland, the camping fields all share the same stunning coastal views, and when the skies are clear at dusk you can expect colourful sunsets over the waves as well. Your four-legged friends are welcome on site, and there’s a secure field for exercising them, plus lots of walkies options on several beaches within a short drive. In fact, there’s a bunch of stuff to do in the locality with or without dogs. Tresaith (10 minutes’ drive) offers up a sandy beach backed by a waterfall cascading down dramatic cliff sides. Kids can enjoy hours of rock pooling when the tide is out, or you can join the Ceredigion Coast Path for a jaunt along the clifftops. Other family days out might include dolphin-spotting cruises from New Quay (20 minutes) or a visit to the medieval cathedral in teeny St Davids (about an hour), the smallest city in Wales. When you return to home base in the evening, there’s the welcome prospect of refreshing in the power shower with bags of hot water. No need to worry about breakfast the following morning either, as you can pre-order ‘full Welsh’ packs of locally produced goodies for the family to fill up on. If you’re not big on self-catering, head for the pub in Tresaith or the eateries in Aberporth (10 minutes) to keep everyone well fed.

Christine S. Aug 2024

Electric grass campervan pitch

Liked: Lovely facilities, great that cars have a separate car park. Love that there are a limited number of pitches.
Amazing view, great links to main areas including a variety of beaches.
Dog friendly and a separate dog walking pen.

Disliked: The toilet and shower are in the same room and there is only one of each.
Another toilet would be ideal
A slide or swing would be fab for kids.but there is plenty of space for them to run.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Place, scenic views stunning scenery, really friendly host, great facilities

Disliked: Uneven ground for the tent pitches, so on an angle for everything made it challenging for most everyday stuff, great if in caravan as they have wheel choks and on more even surface but tent area on slope

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for the review, glad you enjoyed the site, and really appreciate your feedback. We allow customer to pitch where they feel most happy, but will endeavour to point them to the flattest part and will look to improve the ground ready for next season.

And would love to see you again.

Thanks
