  • 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.

What customers say

A top-notch site with spotless, modern washrooms. Guests love the welcoming owners, great location near the beach and New Quay, plus the dog wash and bar. Mostly glowing reviews, with minor mentions of occasional road noise or spotty Wi-Fi.

Derek I.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Lovely quiet site. Well maintained with excellent facilities.
10 minute drive into Newquay which was very nice with some good restaurants and bars.

Disliked TV reception is poor but in fairness, that is mentioned in the site details but it would deter us from staying more than a couple of nights.

DONNA T.

VIP powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Lovely site staff very friendly and helpful. Showers and toilets were nice and clean. Been upgrade to a good standard. Nice pitches. The park well run and kept clean. A few little tweaks and this campsite will be 10/10

Disliked The shower was a bit of a pain had to keep pressing the tap every 30 seconds. The vip pitches comes with seating this is a nice touch but the pitch next to us their seating was right up by side our caravan so privacy was limited. This was the same for us our seating was right under the caravan next to us. Also the WiFi was a problem kept losing signal but so was my mobile data same but that’s what you get in rural areas

Disliked Not be returning, very cramped, shaded, to ask for £36 with no water on pitch is too expensive. been to far better facilities for less

From the manager: ahhhhh Mr Foster. Thanks for the review! We were definitely expecting this one!

Before we go on to discuss the points you've raised, let us make one thing clear we certainly do not want guests like you staying on our park. Rude, aggressive behaviour right from the get go will not be tolerated!

You were clearly in a 'bad mood' when you arrived as you explained to us that you had just left a very poor site, your vehicle had broken down and that you had to wait a long time for a recovery vehicle.

You arrived the park at 5pm......the sun had moved around by then. If you had arrived at 12pm as you were entitled to you would have enjoyed lovely sunshine. The following day we witnessed yourself and your wife sunbathing on your sun lounges, therefore indicating that you indeed had a sunny pitch.

As for the 'cramped' pitches......that is your opinion, however this is in contrast to the 9.7/10 average score that we have received from 335 reviews and we do not feel the need to act on this.

We are very proud and humbled by the 9.8/10 average score from Pitchup and do not take this for granted (AT ALL) but we do feel that cases like this need to be addressed accordingly.

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…
