Trenoeth

Liked Peaceful environment on this a secluded working probable arable farm, toilet block is very serviced and comfortable to use.
Rural walking, a great place for dog owners.

Disliked June 3rd week stay and hay n haylige harvesting was in full swing, not good for the hay-fever sufferers,
the farm is quite far down a partially concrete road, the rest was so rough for modern cars.
OK for farm use assumedly.
pitches were in a sloping paddock but none were particularly level or even.
No local shop or pub adjacent,
Google maps guided us in via the golf club on the A40 twix Camarthen and StClaires, this I would not recommend to anyone let alone towing a caravan, we arrived feeling very second hand.
Our favorite area would been New Quay and although probably the nearest to the site, was not aquick or easy drive. I read Aberporth 1/2 ml, fact it's written 1/2 hr my error, our best time was just short of an hour.

From the manager: Thank you for your comments, however I do want to address some of the points you have mentioned as I feel this gives others a negative impression of our peaceful tranquil hideaway site, suited to those who want to escape and embark on a get away from all holiday as states on the write up. We are a small holding, surrounded by neighbouring farms, so the hay making is not us, like the saying says ‘make hay when the sun shines’ hence you picked a beautiful sunny week so expect this when holidaying in the countryside. We do advertise that we are a drive away from shops, pubs and beach’s, please in future make a habit of reading where you are going as this would of prevented you from taking the route past the golf course on your arrival, as this is not the route we suggest with caravans. Our track is not only suitable for farm vehicles, and is 80% is concreted, we have chosen to leave the last part in stone as a way of slowing down vehicles to the entrance of the campsite to prevent dogs and children being run over, we have found this works very well. We as owners all have new cars and have never found this to be a problem. You rated the accommodation as a 6/10, just so others are aware, you had your own accommodation (a caravan) so not sure what that means, maybe buy a new van ? “You arrived feeling very second hand” I greeted you on arrival and we had a good giggle and I gave you a very warm and friendly welcome. I left by saying if there was anything you needed to come and find me. In all honestly after re visiting the points you’ve raised I feel you’ve contradicted yourself, you liked the peaceful environment but moaned about the haulage, you liked the toilet block but scored facilities low ? In future please do your research on where you are travelling and then hopefully there will be no need to leave businesses poor reviews as this is our livinghood. Best wishes. Trenoeth

Liked A firm favourite for us. Been here three times the past year. Facilities are great for what we need as we spend our days out and about exploring. There’s a little swing set for the kids which is great when it’s dry. Owners are always pleasant and friendly they come to say high and recognise us now :)

Liked * Cozy and Comfortable: The cabin is well-equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay, including a comfortable bed, cooking and dining equipment, BBQ, and more.
* Tranquil Location: Surrounded by stunning natural beauty, the retreat offers breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere.
* Outdoor Adventures: Enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, such as hiking or stargazing.
* Friendly and Welcoming Host: The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay.

Disliked * Lack of Connectivity: There is no mobile network coverage or Wi-Fi signal at the retreat. This may be ideal for those seeking a digital detox, but it's important to plan accordingly.

Liked Friendly, accommodating owners on site. Quiet location with basic but clean, adequate facilities. Due to the rural location the pitches are not level but it was easily remedied by using chocks.

From the manager: Thank you Janet for your review.

Liked The tranquil secluded setting of the wild pitches. Friendly and helpful owner. Clean toilet facilities

Liked Lovley small site super welcoming family! The Cabin was perfect for us and the family, saved us setting up a tent and was so quiet and secluded. Bbq and coved eating area was just perfect. Great getaway with or without kids

Liked Peace and quiet, away from civilisation, yet has all amenities you can ask for. Super relaxed atmosphere and owners are very friendly and helpful in every situation. Really enjoyed our stay, thank you!

Liked If you’re looking to go off the grid this is the place.
Small campsite but has everything you need washing facilities, toilets, showers. All very clean and fit for purpose. It’s peaceful and tranquil perfect for relaxing in the middle of nature.
The hosts are friendly and helpful as a family run site you can explore their stunning grounds. Wild flowers, lovely stream and woodland walk perfect for the dog.
Overall it’s a great getaway from daily life and relax.

Liked Lovely to be back at Trenoeth. Such a peaceful and friendly campsite! We love its remote location, simple and clean facilities and the woods and nature pond to explore

Disliked Pitches are slightly sloping which could be easily levelled to make sleeping in particular more comfortable

Liked Quiet area, secluded but just a little out of the way of anywhere for our liking.

Disliked Showers weren’t particularly hot or powerful.
No hot water at all to wash dishes.
Pitch was sloped which caused some problems with sleeping

From the manager: Thanks for leaving us a review, sorry you felt we were a bit far out, we do state we are a rural hideaway site, however we couldn’t be more central to Newcastle Emlyn, Carmarthen & St clears-all reached by car within a short pleasant drive (no traffic) in about 20 minutes, I do believe you knew the area as you stayed with us to house hunt down here ? No one mentioned the hot water wasn’t working, apologises for this, I’m not sure why that was, as all seems fine again now? I believe you stayed on pitch 2 which isn’t sloping ? So I’m a little confused on that comment. Thank you for your overall rating and good luck with the house hunt.
