  • 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 grass pitch

Liked Our first family camping experience and this place was exactly what we were looking for! Everyone is so friendly and couldn’t help enough! A big shout out to one of the workers for entertaining the children with football matches during his free time! The shower/toilet block is very clean and very well maintained! The children loved all the facilities on site- football goals, park, games room, river and rope swing in the trees. We are already planning our next visit!

Disliked Nothing.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Great for kids, park area and football goals. My kids loved meeting other children and were kept entertained for hours.
Lovely river access from the site. All flat pitches.
Showers and toilets were clean.
Will definitely return as had a lovely time and was within 25 mins drive from beautiful beaches and only 5 mins drive to Newcastle Emlyn which has several shops, eating places and a few pubs.

Disliked Nothing really, WIFI not great and T.V signal same but we werent bothered about watching T.V. Also maybe the fact you can't really walk anywhere from the site as the roads have no pathways but tbh we were happy to stay on site or drive somewhere so was not an issue.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Felt safe and quiet. The children had plenty to play with and be occupied. The toilets were very clean and well maintained, even the family shower was brilliant as a single parent of two. The river at the back is a hidden gem and beautiful escape.

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.
