  • Peaceful countryside site within easy reach of Ceredigion coast
  • Less than 15 minutes’ walk to Cardigan Bay beaches, Wales Coast Path
  • Shop and playground on site; five-minute walk to bus stop
A warm west Wales welcome awaits at Wern Mill Caravan Park, a family-friendly site in the peaceful hamlet of Gilfachreda five minutes’ drive from New Quay. The site is well placed for adventurers and explorers: the long-distance Wales and Ceredigion coast paths can be joined within about 15 minutes’ stroll of base, and a bus stop five minutes’ walk along the road serves the scenic coastal towns and villages of this part of Wales, taking you all the way to Aberystwyth or Haverfordwest should you wish. Not that going that far will be an immediate priority… Start with a jaunt into New Quay for days spent sampling the wares (and seeing the busy buzzy workers) at New Quay Honey Farm, hours at sea with eyes peeled for dolphins, and fish and chips by the pretty harbour. Or get bucket and spades at the ready and take the 10-minute amble down to Cei Bach beach for days on the sands. When setting foot any further than absolutely necessary just won’t do, settle in on site instead for a stroll by the stream, a bit of family time at the playground, or idle times using the free wifi across the park too. A small shop is on site for essentials, and there is an outdoor eating area too.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked A compact site, yet peaceful. Lovely staff, very clean and tidy in all areas. Shower block always clean and warm (winter stay). On site shop is really handy. Two beaches to walk to easily. And a bus stop 5 mins away should you want public transport into Newquay. Loved the dog wash (Doug the dog not so keen!) Great value for money!

Disliked Nothing, great place.

Jennie R.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Absolutely wonderful site, beautifully maintained, super clean facilities and a toasty hot shower! Perfectly situated within an easy 15 minute walk to the beach, ideally located for a short break with my dog. The owners were so kind and helpful, after a warm welcome they went above and beyond when my electric hook up cable failed, providing me with a spare and saving the day! I would definitely recommend Wern Mill and would love to visit again.

Disliked The only tiny issue I had was pitching up, although it could totally be a ‘me’ issue. I found the space a bit snug to get into with a few other surrounding occupied pitches next to and opposite mine, and I didn’t want to drive on the beautifully kept grass and churn it up as it was raining.

Liked Wonderful friendly staff with excellent information given on arrival. The showers and toilets were amazingly clean at all times. Lovely quiet site with access to plenty of coastal/town walks. The bus stop is a 5 min walk and that will take you wherever you need to go. Love it here, thank you!

Disliked Nothing at all!

Local attractions

Did someone say beach? It’s likely they did, as there are two gorgeous little numbers a short stroll away – take your pick from Cei Bach (10 minutes’ walk) or Traeth Gwyn (15 minutes). Linking the two (and the whole of the rest of the Welsh coastline) is the Wales Coast Path, where you can walk for miles and miles (and miles and miles) with the sea in sight. If the waves are beckoning you closer, cart your surfboard off to the beaches at Aberarth or south of New Quay or head to the watersports centre in New Quay for kit hire and lessons in paddleboarding, kayaking, windsurfing and the like. Head to the harbour here or in Cardigan (half an hour’s drive) for boat trips and, hopefully, glimpses of dolphins. There are plenty of options back on dry land, too: take a walk around the 18th-century mansion at Llanerchaeron (20 minutes), putter along the Teifi Valley Railway (25 minutes) or see the cosy exhibits at the National Wool Museum (25 minutes). If your Wales stay isn’t complete without a castle or two, trips to the towers of Cilgerran or Cardigan (both half an hour) must be on the cards…
