  • Family-run caravan and camping park on the banks of the River Teifi
  • A 20-minute drive from the beaches of the Ceredigion coast
  • River walks and fishing from site; five mins' drive from pub and shops
Ah, Cardigan Bay… cliffs, dolphins, castles, rivers and green hills… Fill your boots with the best of the bay and the whole county of Camarthenshire from a base on this spacious and friendly site, with free site-side wifi added in summer 2019. If you know your Welsh, or your Wales, you'll know that Afon Teifi Caravan and Camping is a riverside site, right on the banks of the Teifi; it's also about five minutes' drive from the lively market town of Newcastle Emlyn and around 20 minutes from the coast. It's a spacious site with a playing field along with a playground for kids of all ages and a games room kitted out with pool table, table tennis and a dartboard. Barbecues and campfires are allowed and you can stock up supplies for your alfresco feasts in nearby Newcastle Emlyn, as well as treat yourself to local ales and hot fresh food in the pubs. The site has 15 acres of lovely riverside land for the exclusive use of its visitors (human and canine): take a walk along the Teifi or fish from the banks for trout, sea trout and salmon with daily, weekly and season tickets available to purchase from the reception desk. Maybe you'll catch something for supper…

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Fab location, lovely owners, well maintained site.
We loved the pizza van and the games being played on the field for the kids.

Disliked The hardstanding pitches were a little tight (good job we had a motor mover) and we had people's cars parked very close to our pitch.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Loved this campsite, was welcomed by a lovely lady at reception who notified camp warden that we had arrived. He met us and showed us where our pitch was. Plenty of space surrounded by a little woodland and riverside walk.

Great park for the children who were all enjoying. Quiet from sunset, would recommend

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Lovely site. Brilliant for kids with plenty to do. Kids more than tolerated playing around this very safe site until 10 ish then also great that they were rounded up and sent inside- saved me a job! Lovely fishing/walking/swimming area. Owner is absolutely lovely and really helpful. Lovely warm, clean toilet blocks with cubicles for basins as well as showers which I always love. Hairdryer available in the block too which was great. Good laundry and washing up facilities- very clean. Beautiful area to explore. Most things are a drive but some incredible places to drive to. British Birds of Prey Centre was a highlight, as was Tresaith beach- just amazing. There are also Red Kites nesting close to the site. It was lovely to watch them in the mornings. Nothing to complain about on the site itself at all. Lovely community atmosphere. Kids had a ball. I'd definitely be back.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Absolutely amazing site in a beautiful setting. The facilities were lovely and clean, the staff were fab, but the highlight was the river Teifi running right by the site where you can wild swim, fish, padel board, kayak etc, or just sit and and take in the tranquility. There is a little village within a 6min drive which had a Morrisons local, some lovely pubs and a gorgeous chippy. We absolutely will be back as soon as we can be.

Disliked Nothing, 10/10 perfect.

Local attractions

Castles? Sorted. The ruined castle in Newcastle Emlyn is one of many built to defend this much-fought-over slice of green and pleasant land; Cilgerran, 15 minutes away, has ruinous traces of all the people who've sacked it and seized it, while 11th-century Cardigan Castle has been so well restored you'd think it was still in use. If you feel like going further back in time, spin a yarn or two at the National Wool Museum, five minutes' drive away, or hoof it over to Castell Henllys (30 minutes) to experience life in a working replica Iron Age village. The seals and dolphins have been visiting the waters of Cardigan Bay since long before the castles: spot them via a sea safari from New Quay, half an hour away. Alternatively take your binoculars when you hit the beach there, or at the similarly well-appointed sandy strips of Aberporth, Mwnt, Llangrannog and Poppit Sands, all between 20 minutes' and half an hour's drive. Antics off the sands include canoeing through the Teifi gorge from Cilgerran and walks along the 60-mile long Ceredigion Coast Path, as well as birdwatching opportunities aplenty heading inland along the wetlands of the Teifi estuary. For family days out involving wild beasts and high-octane active stuff, Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo and Heatherton World of Activities are both around an hour's drive away.
