Two very friendly dogs on site, enjoying the local walks. (added by manager 03 mar 2021)

  • Peaceful pitches on a wooded field just outside Felindre
  • A 10-minute drive from Newcastle Emlyn; half an hour from the coast
  • Dog-friendly site; walk to the village pub and chip shop in 10 minutes
Pantybarcud is a peaceful site on a partly wooded field in the Carmarthenshire countryside 10 minutes’ walk from Felindre (a small village but big enough to be home to a pub, shop and fish and chip shop). There’s plenty of breathing room here on the well-spaced pitches, and as cars are parked in a separate area you won’t have to worry about any late-night traffic movements. In the main, everything’s been left quite natural but guests will have access to facilities including a covered cooking area and a barbecue/firepit area with seating. Compost toilets are down at the pitches, and there’s a shower a short walk away up at the main house (which also has a washing machine, wifi connection and recharging points that guests can use). There are lots of great places to get out for a walk around here – either inland (around the castle in Newcastle Emlyn, 10 minutes’ drive away, is a popular pick) or along the Wales Coast Path, just under half an hour away. Got a dog looking hopeful at the prospect of all this walking? Good news – they’re welcome to come along and join the holiday here.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked: Fab little hidden gem of a campsite! Caroline and Kit (and Spock) were really friendly and helpful, our dog thoroughly enjoyed running around with Spock (their young spaniel). Small and intimate, vans will benefit from chocs. Good simple amenities (compost toilets and a hot shower), everything you need with the village a short walk away. Recommend the fish and chip shop.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked: We had the place to ourselves, a nice surprise, but what a beautiful spot this is. The campervan field was lovely, sheltered and cosy. The camping field looked beautiful, and Kit was a great and welcoming host who showed us around. We were made to feel very welcome very quickly. The shower was great, and in the camping kitchen there's everything you'd need in the way of gear if you've forgotten anything. All in all, you can tell that Caroline and Kit have put a lot of love into this place, and we felt very lucky to be able to enjoy this amazing little corner of the world.
