  • Peaceful countryside site within easy reach of Ceredigion coast
  • Less than 15 minutes’ walk to Cardigan Bay beaches, Wales Coast Path
  • Shop and playground on site; five-minute walk to bus stop
A warm west Wales welcome awaits at Wern Mill Caravan Park, a family-friendly site in the peaceful hamlet of Gilfachreda five minutes’ drive from New Quay. The site is well placed for adventurers and explorers: the long-distance Wales and Ceredigion coast paths can be joined within about 15 minutes’ stroll of base, and a bus stop five minutes’ walk along the road serves the scenic coastal towns and villages of this part of Wales, taking you all the way to Aberystwyth or Haverfordwest should you wish. Not that going that far will be an immediate priority… Start with a jaunt into New Quay for days spent sampling the wares (and seeing the busy buzzy workers) at New Quay Honey Farm, hours at sea with eyes peeled for dolphins, and fish and chips by the pretty harbour. Or get bucket and spades at the ready and take the 10-minute amble down to Cei Bach beach for days on the sands. When setting foot any further than absolutely necessary just won’t do, settle in on site instead for a stroll by the stream, a bit of family time at the playground, or idle times using the free wifi across the park too. A small shop is on site for essentials, and there is an outdoor eating area too.

VIP powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Very clean facilities.
Pitches are of a good size, with a bench on our pitch.
It would be good to return in the summer months, as there is a bar on site, plus food vans.
Close to the bus stop and a nice walk to the beach which takes you to New Quay( tide permitting).
Will certainly return.

Disliked Having to leave.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked We love it here. We’ve been a few times now. The site is clean, well laid out and very well maintained. Toilet block is always sparkling clean. You can walk down to the beach through the woods. If the tide is out you can walk into New Quay. Fish and chips on the sea wall. It really doesn’t get any better.

Disliked Absolutely nothing to dislike.

Local attractions

Did someone say beach? It’s likely they did, as there are two gorgeous little numbers a short stroll away – take your pick from Cei Bach (10 minutes’ walk) or Traeth Gwyn (15 minutes). Linking the two (and the whole of the rest of the Welsh coastline) is the Wales Coast Path, where you can walk for miles and miles (and miles and miles) with the sea in sight. If the waves are beckoning you closer, cart your surfboard off to the beaches at Aberarth or south of New Quay or head to the watersports centre in New Quay for kit hire and lessons in paddleboarding, kayaking, windsurfing and the like. Head to the harbour here or in Cardigan (half an hour’s drive) for boat trips and, hopefully, glimpses of dolphins. There are plenty of options back on dry land, too: take a walk around the 18th-century mansion at Llanerchaeron (20 minutes), putter along the Teifi Valley Railway (25 minutes) or see the cosy exhibits at the National Wool Museum (25 minutes). If your Wales stay isn’t complete without a castle or two, trips to the towers of Cilgerran or Cardigan (both half an hour) must be on the cards…
