  • Dog-friendly site in the west Wales countryside
  • Top spot for biking and walking: Ceredigion Coast Path 15 mins' drive
  • On-site bar open from Thursday to Sunday
A stay in the Welsh countryside, with greenery on every side and views towards hills in the distance, but still close to beaches and seaside towns… sound like a dream holiday spot? Penuwch Inn Caravan and Camping, 15 minutes’ drive from Tregaron in West Wales, may very well be your spot. The area around Penuwch Inn has plenty of walking and cycling routes for anyone who wants to explore the region (ask your friendly hosts Nicky and Julian for tips). Pick up a map before you arrive, then disappear for the day on a mountain bike, making your way along the Ceredigion Coast Path or the banks of Afon Teifi – the second longest river in Wales – or Afon Aeron. If you prefer two legs to two wheels, you can pick up the Ceredigion Coast Path from Llanrhystud, a 15-minute drive from the site. For drinks, there's a bar on site open between Thursday and Sunday. For food, meanwhile, you can pick up some supplies for the barbecue at Tregaron. And then? Relax in the evenings by turning your eyes to the stars, soaking up the dark skies above the site to see some of the wonders of the Milky Way…

Liked: Beautiful location with generous size Pitches. Small friendly touring Park . The owners are lovely and was really helpful. Little quirky pub which hopefully next time we will get to go to . Toilets was very clean and nice warm showers. Close to explore around the coast then come back to rural surroundings. Will Deffinatly be returning.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike about this hidden Gem. Only that we don't want any storm going through next time . Lol

Liked: Very clean and well kept site. Owner messaged me, to advise of alternative route. Friendly welcome. First time I've been on a pitch with electric meter. No issues. Didnt go over our allowance, so no extra cost. Nice little bar adjacent to pitches, Overall, good weekend.

Liked: Location was great for us to explore the area. The facilities were clean and the site very tidy. There's a pub on site which is run by the owners, selling canned and bottled drinks. We particularly enjoyed spending some time in the pub in the evening socialising with the other campers and the owners Nicky and Julian. The owners are fantastic! So friendly and welcoming, and giving us a few pointers of where to visit and eat out. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We were a family of three, with a 12 year old and 2 dogs. We all had a lovely time and would highly recommend this site.

Liked: The view

Disliked: Sloping pitch. Toilets not being cleaned regularly. Toilet rolls running out twice and taking days to replace. (Left before last roll refilled) no clothes washing sink. 'Hot' water only like warm (despite being only people on site so hot water not used up.) I believe for safety and compliance to H and S Hot water should be 60degrees to prevent Legionnaires bacteria Water was only like warm, not hot enough to wash dishes!

From the manager: Thank you for your review. I'm sorry you were so disappointed with your stay with us. I really can't understand why you never mentioned any of these problems to me as we spoke several times during your stay and I could have at least had the opportunity to sort them. On arrival we offered you a choice of pitches and "you chose" the sloping one which my husband helped you to set up. As for the toilets/showers - I can assure you they are cleaned and checked every day. The toilet roll did run out in the first toilet, which we replaced immediately after you called, but we do have 2 other separate toilets to choose from. Hot water is thermostatically set for health and safety reasons and unfortunately its an immersion heater system so occasionally you have to wait for it to heat up, which was explained to you on arrival and we did have 5 other pitches occupied during your stay.

Local attractions

Aberystwyth, 35 minutes from Penuwch Inn, has heaps to do: take the funicular up to the camera obscura on the peak of Constitution Hill, explore the ruins of the 13th-century Aberystwyth Castle, or feel the tropical heat at the Magic of Life Butterfly House, 20 minutes’ drive outside the town. A 25-minute drive from Aberystwyth, the spectacular and world-famed Devils Bridge Falls should very much be on your must-see list. If you’d prefer to get to the falls under someone else’s steam, climb aboard one of the steam trains on the Vale of Rheidol railway in Aberystwyth. Sit back and watch the scenery go by until you reach Devils Bridge or get out at one of the other stops to follow the walking trails of the Rheidol valley. In the opposite direction along the Ceredigion coast, the town of New Quay is a top spot for dolphin-spotting boat trips, fishing excursions and stunning beaches overlooking Cardigan Bay. Buzz on over to the New Quay Honey Farm while you’re in the area to visit the meadery, witness the bees at their daily grind and get a taste of their hard work in the tearoom. If you can’t get enough of that New Quay honey, take home a beeswax, honey or mead souvenir from the farm shop.
