  • Family-friendly Ceredigion campsite with spectacular Irish Sea views
  • Penbryn Beach five minutes’ drive; National Wool Museum 20 minutes
  • Dog-friendly site with a secure exercise area; pub 10 minutes’ drive
A combination of Irish Sea panoramas and the proximity of a choice of beaches for the kids makes Plas Y Wern an irresistible family-friendly Ceredigion camping choice. Set on seven acres of farmland high on a headland, the camping fields all share the same stunning coastal views, and when the skies are clear at dusk you can expect colourful sunsets over the waves as well. Your four-legged friends are welcome on site, and there’s a secure field for exercising them, plus lots of walkies options on several beaches within a short drive. In fact, there’s a bunch of stuff to do in the locality with or without dogs. Tresaith (10 minutes’ drive) offers up a sandy beach backed by a waterfall cascading down dramatic cliff sides. Kids can enjoy hours of rock pooling when the tide is out, or you can join the Ceredigion Coast Path for a jaunt along the clifftops. Other family days out might include dolphin-spotting cruises from New Quay (20 minutes) or a visit to the medieval cathedral in teeny St Davids (about an hour), the smallest city in Wales. When you return to home base in the evening, there’s the welcome prospect of refreshing in the power shower with bags of hot water. No need to worry about breakfast the following morning either, as you can pre-order ‘full Welsh’ packs of locally produced goodies for the family to fill up on. If you’re not big on self-catering, head for the pub in Tresaith or the eateries in Aberporth (10 minutes) to keep everyone well fed.

Christine S.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Lovely little gem of a campsite, beautifully veiws of sea and very close to three or more of great sandy beaches.
Ideal for dogs and families, as plenty of space, and half hour walking distance to Tresaith beach and pub over the fields by footpath.
The owners of this site have worked hard to make this site and there holiday let’s an enjoyable experience.
Not far from big shops like Tesco B&M Aldi all in Cardigan if you need to stock up for those BBQs

Disliked Did not find site noisy at all, the washing up facilities were good with hot water.
Only one down side was that the toilet was in with the shower which could become a problem if you were caught short.
But saying that most caravan and motor home units have there own toilets
It would not put us off staying here as the position of the site near all great sandy beaches, the sea veiws and the shops out ways this. Wi FI excellent
We would definitely stay again

Claire M.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Fab views, site was spotlessly clean. Owners were friendly and really helpful. Pitches level and felt private. This is going to be a great place to stay

Disliked Didn't dislike anything at all but currently only one shower and toilet and they're both in the same room. We stayed at twixmas for two nights and on two separate occasions we couldn't use the toilet because someone was in there. Owner has already said they're going to separate the toilet from the shower so that'll be better although I think they do need more than one toilet on site. Having said that when we did get into the bathroom, it was clean and the water was lovely and hot.
