  • Eco-friendly glampsite on a small organic farm in Carmarthenshire
  • Welsh Wildlife Centre 35 minutes’ drive; Oakwood Theme Park 55 minutes
  • Licensed bar and restaurant; West Wales Trails Bike Park on site
With a mixture of accommodation spaces all restored, upcycled or built in situ, the team at Ceridwen Centre is justly proud of the site’s eco-credentials. Set on a 40-acre, family-run organic farm five minutes’ drive from the Carmarthenshire village of Dre-fach Felindre, this family-friendly camping and glamping spot sits in a wooded valley with views over rural west Wales. The owners have planted more than 4,500 trees across their land, and guests benefit from sustainable biomass heating as well as solar power to heat the water. Green criteria extend to the catering too. Pre-ordered veggie meals are available, with all ingredients sourced straight from the owners’ organic gardens or from small-scale local producers. A seasonal menu of plant-based dishes, pizza and burgers is cooked over a wood fire in the outdoor courtyard kitchen, where a licensed bar opens at 5.30pm on Friday and Saturday nights. If you’re looking for a bit of sporting activity, jump on your bicycle and test your mettle by negotiating dirt trails at the on-site West Wales Trails Bike Park. If you’d prefer a gentle country stroll in the Teifi Valley – perhaps accompanied by your family dog – there are walks in quiet lanes directly from the pitches.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful scenery from campsite. Lovely play equipment for the children. Clean facilities. A restaurant on site which we didn't try out but it look great and would definitely come back again to Tey and stay in one of the glamping pods.

Local attractions

Learn about the importance of the former textile industry to west Wales through hands-on exhibits at the National Wool Museum (five minutes’ drive), and support the local economy by buying a soft woollen blanket woven in a traditional Welsh pattern to take home as a souvenir. Spend time among the Mediterranean plantings in the world’s biggest single-span glasshouse at the National Botanic Garden of Wales (40 minutes), and see another magical garden (one with 15th-century origins, no less) being brought back to life at Aberglasney (45 minutes). Continuing the outdoor theme, see if you can spot otters or voles at the Welsh Wildlife Centre (35 minutes) or Teifi Marshes Nature Reserve (half an hour). Any teens will probably vote for a day on high-octane coasters at Oakwood Theme Park (55 minutes), while younger kids will love the fairground carousels, big cats and cuddly Shetland ponies at Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (50 minutes). To meet handsome steeds of a slightly bigger stature, head for Dyfed Shire Horse Farm (35 minutes).
