  • Dog-friendly site in the west Wales countryside
  • Top spot for biking and walking: Ceredigion Coast Path 15 mins' drive
  • On-site bar open from Thursday to Sunday
A stay in the Welsh countryside, with greenery on every side and views towards hills in the distance, but still close to beaches and seaside towns… sound like a dream holiday spot? Penuwch Inn Caravan and Camping, 15 minutes’ drive from Tregaron in West Wales, may very well be your spot. The area around Penuwch Inn has plenty of walking and cycling routes for anyone who wants to explore the region (ask your friendly hosts Nicky and Julian for tips). Pick up a map before you arrive, then disappear for the day on a mountain bike, making your way along the Ceredigion Coast Path or the banks of Afon Teifi – the second longest river in Wales – or Afon Aeron. If you prefer two legs to two wheels, you can pick up the Ceredigion Coast Path from Llanrhystud, a 15-minute drive from the site. For drinks, there's a bar on site open between Thursday and Sunday. For food, meanwhile, you can pick up some supplies for the barbecue at Tregaron. And then? Relax in the evenings by turning your eyes to the stars, soaking up the dark skies above the site to see some of the wonders of the Milky Way…

What customers say

A ripper spot, this! Hosts are legends, views are fair dinkum, and the facilities are spot on. Country walks aplenty and close to the coast. Some reckoned it was a bit out of the way and the hot water was a bit dodge at times, but a few more lights at night would be grouse.

Power optional grass site

Liked Again Julian and Nickie were excellent hosts been here 3 times previously and it doesn't disappoint. Made absolutely better by red hot weather and the visit by a fantastic burger bar and a great night in the bar. Can still highly recommend this site as it's so relaxing and welcoming 5* all the way

A hidden gem that we'll definitely be visiting again

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Where do we start?! The location, views, peace and tranquility, wildlife (resident chickens and rooster and daily up close visits by quite a few red kites) The facilities are clean and well maintained. The food truck visit on Saturday night was an unexpected treat. The site is a short, picturesque drive to a number of attractions and beaches. The owners are really friendly, welcoming and helpful. The electric hookup is metered on a prepay system but any unused credit is refunded (to the next pound).

We were also treated to a spectacular sky full of stars as there is zero light pollution.

The site doesn't have the bells and whistles of some others that we've visited but this is by no means a down side. It allows you to just slow down from everyday life and recharge.

Disliked A floor squeegee to remove excess water in the bathrooms would be great (they're all wet room style) Maybe some ventilation would be a bonus, especially as the weather was so hot.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Excellent site, would like to visit again if we travel this way.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Lovely small site in a beautfiul rural area, with clean showers and toilet facilities,, great sized pitches and lovely views. Very welcoming owners who went above and beyond during our stay, they treated us like old friends which was lovely. Fantastic bar which was most welcome after our trips out during the day. Advised by the owner to visit Devils Bridge Falls which we did on our way home, definitely worth it. All in all a lovely place to chill out and relax. I would definitely recommend and return again.

Disliked Small thing but I would of liked hand drying facilities in the bathrooms.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Friendly and knowledgeable owners, really welcoming and helpful. Beautiful views. Well kept, quiet site with a bar at weekends. Toliets and showers close to pitches and really clean and pleasant. Access to walks and lovely countryside.

Disliked A little bit remote for me, but that’s no reflection on the site at all, just personal preference.

Local attractions

Aberystwyth, 35 minutes from Penuwch Inn, has heaps to do: take the funicular up to the camera obscura on the peak of Constitution Hill, explore the ruins of the 13th-century Aberystwyth Castle, or feel the tropical heat at the Magic of Life Butterfly House, 20 minutes’ drive outside the town. A 25-minute drive from Aberystwyth, the spectacular and world-famed Devils Bridge Falls should very much be on your must-see list. If you’d prefer to get to the falls under someone else’s steam, climb aboard one of the steam trains on the Vale of Rheidol railway in Aberystwyth. Sit back and watch the scenery go by until you reach Devils Bridge or get out at one of the other stops to follow the walking trails of the Rheidol valley. In the opposite direction along the Ceredigion coast, the town of New Quay is a top spot for dolphin-spotting boat trips, fishing excursions and stunning beaches overlooking Cardigan Bay. Buzz on over to the New Quay Honey Farm while you’re in the area to visit the meadery, witness the bees at their daily grind and get a taste of their hard work in the tearoom. If you can’t get enough of that New Quay honey, take home a beeswax, honey or mead souvenir from the farm shop.
