  • 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

This campsite boasts cracker sea views & a cruisy vibe. Reviewers loved the roomy, tidy spots & the ripper, helpful owners. Modern dunny & shower blocks get a big tick. The coastal track is a beauty, but the road in's a bit tight & New Quay's a steep walk. Showers cost a quid for 10 mins.

Liked Great location with lovely walks into New Quay. Generous pitch sizes. Friendly hosts.

Disliked Amazing views were slightly obscured by a hedge that needed cutting. Having to pay for showers a slight annoyance.

Liked Beautiful scenery, right next to the coast road

Disliked I Paid for a sea view pitch but didn’t get one
The toilet block in the field where we were pitched was not clean, the shower wasn’t open and neither was the washing facility
Play park was not well maintained

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: So sorry that you did not enjoy your stay with us. You were mistakenly allocated the wrong pitch but had the option to change once error was realised. It is made clear on arrival that the toilet block to which you refer is not in use. It is an inherited block that remains closed. However we have opened just the one toilet for the convenience of guests on the second field (but not the wash up area, nor the shower). It is also made clear on arrival that our facilities are on the 1st field not the second! Although the option is there to use the one toilet (which is fully useable and clean!) if you choose to do so!! Odd comments when you were fully aware that the block was closed! Not sure how we can further maintain the children's play area. During normal weather we cut the grass regularly to keep it looking nice and tidy. However, having not had any rainfall all summer things are looking dry and arid with no green growth whatsoever- unfortunately the weather is beyond our control!

Make sure you have 20ps

Liked The weather was nice

Disliked Note to self read reviews! You have to pay for the shower! Did not know this, had to search for change to shower the kids in the morning. There were two toilet blocks, one cleaned more than the other but both clearly needed to be cleaned more often. Especially when you are expected to pay for the showers- this was not made clear on arrival. At £130 for 4 nights for a family of 4- you would expect showers it be included in the price. The play park has seen better days. The whole place looks run down. The ground had about 2 inches of soil before the bed rock so made the tent in the wind fun with a worry that it would blow over

From the manager: Note to self-load of humbug. Sour grapes coz he didn’t book a sea view pitch and upset coz they were all fully booked! Rundown! my aunt Fanny! Everything looks arid and dry we agree-but check the weather out of late for goodness sake! Everywhere is now slowly greening up again as we have had a couple of rain showers. Pay for showers is detailed in PU-note to self-read description before booking. One main shower/toilet block always cleaned to a high standard-check out previous reviews. No second block but an old inherited building with one toilet that is usually closed-we make it clear on arrival that our main facilities are on the sea view field (which are of a very high standard) and that we have temporarily opened the back field one toilet for convenience which is aged but absolutely clean. Guests have option to choose! Slightly confused re reference to ‘tent’ as booking was for a campervan. Total of four nights was £128.70. We receive 109.40 ourselves as the so called ‘deposit’ is actually commission to PU. Having said that-even at full wack, it only works out at around £32.17 (we receive just £27.35) per night INCLUDING electricity-the usage on each pitch is more often than not a significant amount. Also consider the huge increase in electricity costs to us-particularly at business rates. Water costs has also increased significantly as has rubbish disposal, council tax, wages, fuel for mowers, repairs and renewals and so much more! Worthy of note here, even at PU rates we are still cheaper than other sites in this particular area.

Really lovely campsite, close to New Quay and ideal for families.

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).
