  • Quiet family-friendly campsite 10 minutes’ drive from Cardigan Bay
  • Direct access to Wales Coast Path; Cei Bach Beach 10 minutes’ drive
  • Dogs welcome; licensed bistro, farm shop and a play barn on site
Sitting between the seaside towns of Aberaeron and New Quay, Moody Meadows is a family-run site 10 minutes’ drive from spectacular Cardigan Bay in Ceredigion. And not only is it family-run, it’s also very family-friendly, with a whole host of facilities to make life easy on site. These include a farm shop for topping up on supplies, a licensed bistro for those days when you can’t be bothered to spark up the barbecue and a play barn to keep kids safely occupied. The level, tree-lined pitches are all fully serviced with a lawned area for sitting out. Thoughtful additions in the shower block (it has disabled facilities) include hair dryers and a laundrette, and should you be bringing dogs with you, there’s also a dedicated dog wash area for cleaning muddy paws. With easy access off the A487, this quiet site is a convenient base for exploring Ceredigion, its beaches, historic sites and wildlife – watch out for red kites inland and dolphins in Cardigan Bay. A footpath leads from the site to the village of Llwyncelyn (10 minutes’ stroll), and a short walk from there takes you onto the scenic Wales Coast Path… You won’t need a car to explore the area, but a good pair of walking boots is essential.

What customers say

Lovely, tidy campsite with generous spots, some with hot tubs. Brilliant food & facilities. Friendly staff. Handy bus to attractions. Wi-Fi a bit iffy & tent pegs tricky on hard stands. Great for a chill break.

Fully-serviced concrete slab site

Liked The pitches were good, but a little tricky to get into. And the staff and people staying on site were really welcoming.

Disliked Run out of water in the shower block mid shower/bubbles.
Every park for the kids you had to pay for and dogs are not allowed inside, nothing for the kids to do unless you don’t have a dog and pay. We left a day early as we were so disappointed.

 Gavin E. 4 reviews

Fully-serviced concrete slab site (large)

Liked The site was spotless, well maintained, fantastic facilities and really friendly staff. The Coastal footpath was accessible from the site and from there New Quay and Aberaeron were walkable if you were feeling fit. The bus stop on site also made reaching New Quay and Aberaeron simple and a few minutes ride away.

Disliked Handstand pitches were really difficult to peg unless you had really sturdy rock pegs (which we didn't)

Liked Lovely clean site, well size pitches and showers/ laundry

Disliked Allowing 5 dogs to a pitch!! Continuously barking and loud disgusting mouths from their owners. Obviously down to timing booked, so our experience was NOT a good one

Local attractions

Take forays along the Wales Coast Path (direct access from the site), or pack a picnic and march the family down to sand-and-shingle Cei Bach Beach (50 minutes’ stroll/10 minutes’ drive) to see if you can spot dolphins playing in the waves. If the kids catch the wildlife bug, take them to see the birds of prey and butterfly house at the National Botanic Garden of Wales (55 minutes’ drive), where they can also encounter giant animal sculptures on lakeside walks. Learn more about the history of this corner of Ceredigion with a visit to the National Wool Museum (25 minutes), housed in a historic mill packed with original spinning looms; there are entertaining craft workshops for families. Fans of the combustion engine can see 19th-century machines in motion at The Internal Fire Museum of Power (20 minutes), giving an insight into the development of steam power. Staying with the heritage theme, tour the handsome John Nash-designed villa and lakeside gardens at National Trust - Llanerchaeron (10 minutes). If your offspring need an antidote to all that history, the crescent-shaped sandy beach at New Quay (10 minutes’ drive) has rock pools for crabbing and is backed by ice cream stalls and cafés.
