  • Excellently-kept village site 12 miles from Aberystwyth
  • A few minutes' walk from Devils Bridge Falls
  • In a walking, birdwatching and wildlife haven
Ever been to Devils Bridge Falls? If not, you really should, for they really are devilishly handsome. And a simple few minutes' stroll from the Falls is popular and immaculately-maintained Woodlands Caravan Park: use it as a waterfall pitstop, or as a base for seeing what else is on offer on the Ceredigion coastline and in west Wales (spoiler alert: quite a bit). Woodlands is in the hills in Devils Bridge village, in a walking haven with lots of walks leading directly from the site, and in a well-placed locale for fishing, mountain biking, golfing and birdwatching too (you'll often see a red kite or two soaring overhead). It's a few minutes' walk from the village pub and the Vale of Rheidol steam train, and four miles from the red kite feeding station at Bwlch Nant yr Arian's Forestry Centre. Aberystwyth is 12 miles away and has one of several sandy beaches to visit up and down the Ceredigion coast. The amenities block at Woodlands has very cleanly kept toilets and free showers. Also on site are a shop, tearooms, a laundry room, games room and a play area; a free wifi hotspot is maintained for the use of all guests.

Liked The toilets and showers were immaculate. As we’re the pitches and surrounding areas. Absolutely stunning area, ideally situated to go out and about exploring. A short walk to the Devils bridge and waterfalls, the chocolate shop, steam railway and hotel/restaurant. Excellent recycling facilities and waste disposal areas. The cafe is lovely, although they do close at 3pm.
Pitch sizes are very good although no privacy between pitches. Dogs are welcome and there’s a good walking area for them. A small playground for children.

Disliked We stayed during the heatwave and unfortunately, the showers were roasting hot and you are not able to regulate the temperature, so it would have been nice to have a cool shower. However, on the last day we saw that a notice had been put up to say that we could use the accessible shower facility that has a temperature control.
Also, it wasn’t a problem while we were there but there are only four showers for men and four for women. If the site was fully booked out, there would be a problem.

From the manager: Thanks so much for the detailed feedback, really glad you enjoyed the pitches, the location and everything on the doorstep. Sorry about the shower temperature during the heatwave, but I'm glad the accessible shower option helped in the meantime. Hope to see you again soon!

Really good value for money, great…

Liked Really good value for money, great showers and toilets, beautiful setting, peaceful.
The only thing with it being so hot the temperature of the showers could come down a couple of degrees, bit too warm for children.
Otherwise great.

From the manager: Thanks so much for the great feedback, really pleased you enjoyed the value, the setting and the peace and quiet. Sorry the showers ran a bit too warm for the kids in the heat, we'll keep that in mind. Hope to see you again soon!

Liked Lovely well maintained site. Helpful staff and impeccable clean toilets and showers. A stone's throw from the waterfalls and train station. I particularly liked the antique farm equipment which decorates the site.

Local attractions

The Devils Bridge Falls and the Three Bridges nature trail walk are only about a quarter of a mile from Woodlands Caravan Park and are – cleverly – the things most guests go for first. The Vale of Rheidol Steam Train and the Hafod Arms Hotel & Bar are both within the same distance away. Four miles away are four top west Wales attractions for all types: the daily red kite feeding at Bwlch Nant yr Arian Forestry Centre; its mountain bike trail; the guided walks and wooded landscape of the Hafod estate; and the Silver Mountain Experience, a day out among the old mines, streams and forests of the Cambrian mountains. The Elan Valley, 15 miles away, is an essential site for Welsh wildlife and is often called the Welsh Lake District: head here for the Elan Valley Reservoirs and the only purpose-built arts and crafts mini village in Wales. Or if you fancy the beach, the sands of Borth beach and the sand dunes of Ynys Las are within 15 and 17 miles. Another beach is at nearby Aberystwyth, along with its famed Constitution Hill, Camera Obscura and cliff railway, and the Magic of Life Butterfly House, with hundreds of butterflies, heaps of giant caterpillars, odd insects and walks (and more waterfalls) in the Rheidol Valley. If the kids like this, take them along too to Fantasy Farm Park, 19 miles away.
