  • 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.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: The hosts were super friendly and helpful. They even drove us into Newquay and gave us a tour of the best places to eat and drink. The site is very well presented, clean tidy and the showers are fab with music playing . They Even had a dog/ bike wash down area. Lovely bar and social area with a food bus arriving. Wished we could have stayed longer. Will definitely return.

Disliked: Absolutely nothing. Enjoyed every minute.

Anthony H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

VIP powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: The site is well equipped with everything you could need and the facilities were very clean. The site is just a short walk to a great beach. There is a nice walk along the beach towards the town of New Quay where there is lots to see and do. There are also cliff top walks with very nice views. We stayed on a VIP pitch which was very nice but every pitch looked good to me.

Disliked: The site would be even better if there was somewhere to exercise the dogs when they need a quick wee. The beach is perfect for a good walk but somewhere on site when there isn't time to visit the beach would have made the stay even better.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: The owner was so helpful, he lent us ramps for the motor home and a beach wagon. Other staff were really helpful regarding beach walks and local spots to visit. The site was very well maintained, clean toilets and dish washing facilities. The site was really well located and had 2 beaches within walking distance (both dog friendly in August). Really quiet and had signs up regarding no children playing after 9pm.

Disliked: The main road noise was quite loud as we were on that side of the campsite. WiFi wasn't great.

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…
