  • Peaceful dog-friendly site with views over Cardigan Bay
  • A 35-minute walk from New Quay; footpath to the Wales Coast Path
  • Shops and pubs in New Quay; playground and dog exercise area on site
Raring to go dolphin-spotting on the Wales Coast Path or fishing on a boat trip from New Quay? Very well – here’s Tyr Ffynnon Farm, an advantageous base for such coastal adventures. With 180-degree views over Cardigan Bay and a location just 35 minutes’ walk from New Quay, it would have been a shame to keep this quiet 38-acre working sheep farm for sheep only. Now, families and dogs (on leads) are welcome to come and relax at the elevated peninsular spot. There are plenty of walking areas away from the traffic – and just a couple of hundred metres from the entrance, there’s a public footpath where guests can join the Wales Coast Path. Spectacular views and the chance to spot dolphins… yes please. The coastal path passes through lively New Quay, where activities such as boat trips, sailing, fishing and watersports are on the agenda. Also called Cei Newydd, New Quay has a pretty harbour, sandy beaches and a sound selection of shops, pubs and restaurants for all your foodie desires. The pièce de resistance at Tyr Ffynnon Farm surely has to be the sublime sea-view sunsets that can be seen from the site. Other ace features include the modern shower and toilet facilities, which have hot electric showers, wash basins, toilets, electric hand dryers and electric sockets for hairdryers (in the ladies’ only) and a shaver point (in the gents’). Those with mini family members will also be pleased to find a playground and a fenced dog exercise area on site. Bonus points – the peaceful, friendly site is 20 minutes’ drive from Aberaeron, 35 minutes from Cardigan and 45 minutes from Aberystwyth.

What customers say

Awesome sea views from roomy spots. Folks rave about the friendly owners, clean amenities & chill vibe. Great for coastal strolls, near New Quay. Minor grumbles about shower fees & wind, but mostly keen to come back.

Liked Liked the large pitch
Nice clean toilets and showers
Staff friendly And helpful

Disliked Though the pitch was a good size Neighbouring tents were too close and noise was issue with loud talking early morning and electric pumps/generators being used
Not able to have a safe camp fire ☹️
though you could use a bbq with flames as saw several being used which looked more like fires than BBQ’s
Lane to campsite could do with extra winter trimming so branches and brambles don’t scratch the side of vehicles as lane is tight for larger ones .

Liked Location beautiful
Clean facilities
Nice walk on coastal path into New quay (even saw porpoise!)
Peaceful
No issue paying for showers but please note you can use 20p for shower so can have multiples of 2mins (10 mins for £1 is a long time and wasteful of water)

Disliked Tepid washing up and toilet sink water :-(
The stink of cannabis from the tent next door (though I do appreciate this isnt the owners fault)

Liked Absolutely beautiful site. Owner was very helpful. We didnt venture far enjoyed the sunshine on site. Was quite windy so grown adults playing with a kite was thing to do.

Toilets very very clean and well maintained.

Showers you have to pay for £1 for 10 mins and they are lovely can get quite slippy though so be careful

There also utility to wash your pots

Disliked Loved it

Local attractions

Days out in Aberaeron (20 minutes’ drive) – a regency town with a Georgian harbour and multi-coloured houses – could be spent taking yet more coastal walks, tucking into tapas and scallops around the harbour or licking a honey-flavoured ice cream by the sea. Strolls or fishing along the river Teifi might make it onto your itinerary in Cardigan (35 minutes). The town’s castle is on the riverside and has its own escape room. Another historical spot is in St Dogmaels (40 minutes), where there are abbey ruins with medieval roots. Aberystwyth (45 minutes) is much more than a university town. It’s also home to the National Library of Wales, a free museum and heaps of interesting shops. Elsewhere along the coast, Penbryn beach (25 minutes) is accessed through woodlands from the Wales Coast Path. A short detour from here will get you to Tresaith Waterfall (25 minutes).
