  • Peaceful coastal campsite with a private path down to the beach
  • New Quay and Aberaeron 10 minutes' drive; Cardigan 30 minutes
  • Sea views on site; dog-friendly pitches
Carreg y Gwynt Caravan and Camping is a peaceful coastal site in Ceredigion with far-reaching views over the sea and a private path down to the nearest beach. Just a few minutes' stroll from Cei Bach beach near Llanarth, this spot is sandwiched between the popular seaside resorts of New Quay and Aberaeron, both of which can be reached within a 10-minute journey by road. This site is located on a working farm, with spacious, flat and level pitches in a green and grassy field. Carreg y Gwynt Caravan and Camping is, on the whole, geared towards families, meaning large groups and people wanting to hold parties will need to look elsewhere. Facilities include drinking water, recycling bins, chemical waste disposal and two toilets, as well as a basic shower with warm water. There is also a stainless steel sink and a double drainer for washing up dishes (it has cold water and no shelter). After exploring the cove at Cei Bach, you can head out directly from site for adventures further afield along the Ceredigion Coast Path. That's all welcome news for fans of cross-country walking, and even better news for any dogs you're planning to bring along for a stay in this spectacular part of Mid Wales.

What customers say

Sure, this peaceful site has lovely sea views & plenty of space. Hosts are grand & helpful. Close to New Quay/Aberaeron, with a nice walk to the beach, though it's a bit steep back up. Toilets are basic but clean. Some found it tricky to find.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Amazing location with fantastic views of the sea! Extremely peaceful and the host was so helpful and friendly! We struggled a little bit to find the place, however we rang the number provided and the man was so helpful and gave us many recommendations for places in the surrounding areas. Could not recommend enough and will definitely be returning!
