  • Small, peaceful family-run site in the Ceredigion countryside
  • A 10-minute drive to Aberaeron; 15 minutes to New Quay
  • Village location a short walk from pub, shop and bus stop
One of the real perks of an outdoor stay is surely the chance to catch a glimpse of some wildlife in its natural habitat… and you’ve certainly got a great chance of that at Hafod Brynog Caravan and Camping Park. Guests at this small and peaceful Ceredigion park are often treated to the sight of red kites swooping low over the site. And that's not all – because although there’s green rural scenery all around this spot, it’s only a 15-minute drive to New Quay, a hub for sea safaris heading out into Cardigan Bay in search of sightings of the UK’s largest pod of bottlenose dolphins (plus seals and all sorts of sea birds). You may be tempted to think that such wildlife encounters usually involve long journeys along winding country lanes – but that's not the case here at all, as Hafod Brynog is easily accessed from the A482 in the little village of Ystrad Aeron. That edge-of-village location also means that it’s just a few minutes’ walk from the local pub, a well-stocked mini supermarket and a bus stop (for services to Aberaeron, Lampeter, New Quay and Aberystwyth). By day you may find yourselves filling hours with rural rambles, fishing and horse riding, heading to Aberaeron (10 minutes’ drive) for a beach day or wandering around Lampeter (also 10 minutes’ drive). And by night you’ll be staying at a well-kept family-run site that’s been kept fairly natural (to encourage all that wildlife) but where spacious pitches have access to toilets, showers, a washing-up area and a launderette.

What customers say

This beautifully maintained, quiet, and friendly campsite offers spacious pitches and spotless facilities, including highly praised showers. Guests enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and central location, with amenities like a supermarket and beaches a short drive away. The welcoming and helpful owners are frequently mentioned. While most reviews highlight a thoroughly positive experience, minor points raised include pitches potentially being uneven, the need for a dedicated dog walk, and Wi-Fi being an extra charge. A local pub was noted as undergoing refurbishment.

Electric grass pitch

Liked We stayed for the week. Very generous electric pitch. The grass was kept short and the whole site was well maintained. The showers/toilets were clean, plenty of loo roll. The washing up area had a washing machine and drier. There were books and games which could be borrowed.
Colin met us on arrival and showed us to our pitch. Nothing was too much trouble for him. The site was very quiet. We will definitely visit again.

Disliked The pub nearby was open for drinks but closed for food as it is being re furbished.
The hairdryer in the ladies didn't work.

Local attractions

This part of the Aeron Valley has plenty of trails where walkers and cyclists can soak up some of the scenery, and you can also get out for horse rides or go fishing in nearby lakes and rivers. The National Trust’s Llanerchaeron property (five minutes’ drive) is a lovely place for a wander through the walled garden and farmyard, and the pretty displays of Cae Hir Gardens (five minutes) are also worth a visit. Over at the coast, there are lots of great places to eat in Aberaeron (10 minutes), and it’s got a busy programme of events including a seafood festival and a carnival. New Quay (15 minutes) has the Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre as well as those dolphin-spotting trips, and there are lots of beaches to try out, including Llanrhystud (20 minutes) and Llangrannog (half an hour). There’s often something going on in the university town of Lampeter (10 minutes) too, and it’s got a couple of museums and a town trail tracing the town’s importance in the history of Welsh rugby.
