  • Quiet family-run site near Llanddewi Brefi, with lovely mountain views
  • A half-hour drive to Aberaeron; 35 minutes to Devil's Bridge Falls
  • Access to a mile and a half of fishing on the Teifi river; stargazing
Are the Cambrian mountains calling? Or could it be the coast? You’ll be able to do a bit of both at Cambrian Mountains Glamping and Camping, on the banks of the River Teifi in Ceredigion. This small family-run site has spectacular views of the Cambrian mountains – a little taster of what lies ahead if you’re venturing out for a hike among those hills. And what of the coast? Well, that’s about half an hour away by car for days out in the likes of Aberaeron, Aberystwyth or New Quay. A stay here puts you in a proper wildlife-rich rural retreat where you may well spot things like otters, kingfishers and buzzards as well as the resident ducks and swans. Being on the banks of the river also means easy access to fishing for those with the relevant licence – it’s just a five-minute walk from the site to a splendid mile and a half of riverbank, available from March to October, where you can try your luck fishing for salmon, trout and sea trout. Looking out from the site, the peaceful views may give you the impression that you’ve landed in the middle of nowhere, but in fact the little village of Llanddewi Brefi is about a five-minute drive away for a shop and a pub, and the slightly larger Tregaron is about 10 minutes away. Facilities on site include showers, toilets, a washing-up area and access to a fridge, washing machine and tumble dryer.

Liked Loved how close to the little river you can pitch up. The sound of the water is really calming and made me drift off to sleep! The site has showers, toilets etc which are all very clean and well maintained. The outside areas of the site are immaculate and you can tell a lot of hard work has gone into it.
Friendly and helpful welcome upon arrival. Really nice site.

Disliked Nothing to dislike at all.

A clean and tidy toilet block. A beautiful pitch.

Local attractions

Getting up into the heart of the Cambrian mountains for a proper hike will take about half an hour in the car; for a little warm-up there are several trails you can follow directly from the site. For more strolls, head to Cors Caron Nature Reserve (15 minutes’ drive), where you can follow the old railway line or take the boardwalk around the reserve. Also very much worth a wander are Devil’s Bridge Falls (35 minutes), where a waterfall cascades into a stunning wooded gorge, and routes that take you to the ruins of Strata Florida Abbey (25 minutes). The National Trust estate at Llanerchaeron (half an hour) is another popular spot, with a walled garden, a wild park area and a lake as well as the John Nash-designed Georgian villa itself. And of course there are always the gorgeous walks of the Ceredigion Coast Path to add to the mix too – or you could head straight to lovely coastal towns like the colourful harbour town of Aberaeron (half an hour) or New Quay (40 minutes), the jumping-off point for dolphin-spotting trips and other sea safaris.
