  • Small family-run caravan park with views over Cardigan Bay
  • In a valley within walking distance of Tresaith and Penbryn beaches
  • Good access to local walks; play area and dog-walking field on site
One, two, three beaches within a short drive of your caravan? That’s what you get at Dyffryn Bern Caravan Park, a small Ceredigion caravan park a mile from the A487. With stunning sea views over Penbryn, Cardigan Bay and the Llŷn Peninsula – don’t miss the sunsets – this park is both scenic and convenient. First, that location: Dyffryn Bern Caravan Park is in a small gently sloping valley between the sandy beaches of Tresaith (home to a natural cliff waterfall) and Penbryn. Walking to either is possible, taking about 25 minutes for Tresaith and half an hour for Penbryn along a wooded path with views of the bay, valley and a 12th-century church. The two beaches are connected by the Wales Coast Path, which, of course, has many more miles of walking. Speaking of walking, there’s a nice woodland walk from the caravan park to a small lake. It's not for swimming, but do keep your eyes peeled for dragonflies, ducks, moorhens, coots and the rare kingfisher. Dyffryn Bern Caravan Park is small, peaceful and family-run. All of the caravans have their own parking space and access to facilities including a small play area with climbing frames for kids, a large field for dog walking and self-service washing machines and dryers. Birds like buzzards, red kites and swallows are often seen overhead at the park and in the local area. The nearest food shops are at the petrol station in Tan-y-groes and in Brynhoffnant (a small supermarket), both five minutes’ drive away. A nice dog-friendly café with locally sourced produce is in Penbryn, 25 minutes’ walk away – your appetite will most likely be high if you’ve tried out some kayaking or surfing at the local beaches.

Liked We had the most wonderful stay at Dyffryn Bern Caravan Park. Huw was so kind and helpful, and greeted us on arrival.

The caravan was absolutely spotless and had everything we needed, including some welcome Welsh cakes waiting for us. This was our first little family holiday with our 9-week-old daughter, and it was perfect.

The views are incredible and the park is so quiet and peaceful — all you can hear are the birds. Everyone we met was so friendly, and we honestly didn’t want to leave. There are beautiful beaches and pubs nearby, plus a handy shop just up the road.

We’ve made memories we’ll always treasure and will definitely be back!

Disliked Nothing at all — we didn’t want to leave!

Route directions

If you’re travelling from the south on the A487, take the left-hand exit signposted Tresaith (after the second layby). If you are travelling down from the north on the A487, do not take the first exit signposted Tresaith 1.5 miles. The lane is narrow with minimal passing places and is frequently used by farm machinery. Continue onto the next signpost for Tresaith and turn right into the lane. This lane has plenty of passing places. Avoid taking the right-hand fork exit roughly three-quarters of a mile down. Continue down the hill to the T junction and turn left – there is a park sign on the grass verge on the left – and then take an immediate right. There are two houses on either side of the turning. After a quarter of a mile, you’ll reach the park entrance.
