What customers say
This campsite offers stunning sea views, with many guests praising the clean facilities and friendly, helpful owners. Pitches are generally spacious and well-maintained. It's a popular base for exploring local coastal paths and New Quay, though the walk can be steep. Some visitors noted the showers require payment and the site can be exposed to the wind. Limited on-site amenities are available.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Tir Ffynnon and highly recommend it.
Electric grass pitch
Liked In a peaceful rural location, the site has views looking out over Cardigan Bay and the coastal path is within easy walking distance. A great place to get away from it all, relax and enjoy walks in a beautiful coastal area. After booking a 3 day break, I was notified of a cancellation and was able to arrive a day early which suited me ideally.
Toilet and shower block facilities are excellent, and while dogs have to be kept on a lead, there is an exercise field available for them to run around in.
The owner of the campsite was exceptionally helpful when I inadvertently locked myself out of my campervan and was expecting to wait 3 hours for breakdown recovery to arrive. He kindly offered to try to get into my vehicle and ten minutes later succeeded and I was able to cancel the call out and get on my way.

Sublime views in pure tranquility
Electric grass pitch
Liked Spacious pitches, peaceful setting with the most fantastic views out to sea.
We travelled as 2 families with 3 children aged 7, 2 x 10 year olds and 2 dogs.
We walked the picturesque coastal path to New Quay on one the days and its truly stunning, hard going in places for the kids but worth it for the views. This took us over an hour. We also walked into New Quay via the road which took us less than 30 mins and the same to get back, yes its hilly in places and yes its remote but worth it for the tranquility the site offers.
New Quay it self is a beautiful and very dog friendly. We also used the SeaMor boat company for our dolphin spotting trip, this was well worth the money, we had a wonderful time.
I agree with others, a little shop would be a gold mine, a bin in the washing up area would help, although some people have no camping etiquette 🤣 maybe an extra toilet/shower or 2 also but saying that we didnt really have to wait long for either.
£1 for 10 mins in the shower is plenty and we never used all of the time.
We have no complaints at all about the site and highly recommend.
We met the staff on the first day and saw them in passing a couple of times but they were friendly and welcoming and just let you enjoy your holiday.
Disliked Absolutely nothing

Close to toilets. Little gem of a campsite
Electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely site. Plenty spaces between pitches. Toilets and showers Lovely and clean. Beautiful view across Newquay from our pitch. Could watch sun set every evening. We saw owner every day who was really friendly making sure we were happy with everything. Need walking legs but we enjoyed walks along coastal path into town plus walk back up to site rom town is uphill but there's a pub on corner so can have a rest half way

Lovely relaxing break away
Electric grass pitch
Liked A lovely peaceful sight, in a gorgeous setting. Tents are assigned a specific pitch which has plenty of space with a central grass part for children to play so can be seen at all times. Sea views and no traffic noise at all. The hosts were extremely helpful and lent us an extension lead and also jump started our car on the last day when it wouldn't start. They also provided tips for walks in the area and down to the dolphin watch point. We never waited for a shower as previous reviews, you can just time it around quieter times. Proximity to New Quay and the coastal path is also great as you can leave the car behind. Would 100% recommend :)

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked It's a nice place with a nice view.
Disliked I would like to leave a more positive feedback but unfortunately I cannot do that. It's a nice place but the owner is very rude with the customers, is watching you constantly and asked for extra money. He's not really a polite person.

From the manager: Utter nonsense we just cannot understand the spitefulness of this review after we were so very generous to this family.
First off reviewer caused damage to our property by cutting pitch marker posts thus enlarging their pitch size and erecting his tent over 2 pitches. He also booked and paid for 2 adults and sneaked in an extra 6 of his children (3 of whom, we allege, were of adult ages!) We very reasonably (stupidly on hindsight!) allowed him to leave his tent up where it was as it was, by then, fully erected. We even allowed the 6 additional persons to stay despite this being totally against our terms and conditions of occupancy. Of course, we did quite rightly, ask for additional payment for the additional persons! Wow! how can he expect to get away with bringing 8 people and only pay for 2!! Throughout we were extremely calm and polite-he has only tried the ‘rude owner’ tactic as a previous reviewer used this as a negative despite being completely untrue! We are actually pensioners and the stress of any kind of confrontation is detrimental to our health thus we avoid potential aggravation wherever we can and are NEVER rude or hostile back despite any untrue claims designed specifically to damage our reputation.
We bent over backwards to accommodate this family despite this mans, hostility, absolute deceit by trying to obtain services by deception -he should truly be thanking us and not leaving this dreadful review.
When time for him to leave, he actually had the audacity to ask to stay for an additional night! If we were so bad why would he want to stay on? His review marks every point ad a 1 out of 10 yet he tries to give credence to his claims by tactically softening the review by saying, to begin with, nice site etc-he needs to make his mind up.
We feel really stupid and taken advantage of. In hindsight, we should have asked him to leave immediately as would have any other owner-we are just too kind!
Campsite owners beware! There is no way of blacklisting campers on this site but further may be available on request.
