  • Pop-up site on a 40-acre wildlife haven with a pond and woodland
  • Cardigan, Castell Henllys and Poppit Sands within 20 minutes' drive
  • Three miles from the Pembrokeshire coast at Ceibwr
Settle into Waunbayvil Camping and you'll have the run of a splendid 40 acres of private countryside and woodlands in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. As a small pop-up site for groups of up to 10 people only, this is a splendid spot to bring the friends or family. Beaches for swimming and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path for hikes and rambles are just 10 minutes’ drive away in Ceibwr. There are just four pitches (three for a tent and one suitable for a campervan). They’re all in a secluded spot surrounded by woodlands, with a pond nearby and views over the gorgeous local landscape. As you may imagine of such a setting, it's something of a wildlife haven teeming with wild orchids and many species of wildflowers and grass. There are no neighbours and you can be left alone for your entire stay if you want (if not, wander down to the bottom of the site's track after 5pm to meet the owners and look round the gallery, studio and shop at the main barn). A firepit is supplied for outdoor warmth and cooking if you fancy it. Supplies can be sorted at the farmers' markets in Newport on Mondays and St Dogmaels on Tuesdays; to have someone else do the cooking, plenty of cafés and pubs are in Newport, St Dogmaels and Cardigan.

Route directions

From the A487 (coming from Cardigan) in Velindre Farchog turn right signposted to Moylegrove. Go up a winding hill through the forest for about two miles. When you reach a crossroads, go straight over towards Moylegrove. After around 200 metres the site is the first track on the left just after a right-hand bend. You will see a cattle grid, a big metal bin and a small sign that says Waunbayvil. Go over the cattle grid and follow track down till you see the sign for camping on the left.
