New Inn

Liked We absolutely loved The New Inn and have already recommended the campsite to another 3 families. The little touches are wonderful. The owners Michaela and Lee are SO helpful and welcoming. If feels so peaceful and such a family friendly site. The facilities are great, everything you need in a campsite and more. We will miss morning coffees on the veranda and feeding the chickens, but mostly the kids will miss the family site dogs, Mackrell and Bisicuit.

There is a park just a short 5 minute walk away and a lovely little village with a community kitchen. But really except visiting the outstanding views nearby, we had no reason to leave this stunning place.

Pitches are huge, and we had the pitch featuring "the bear and the bench" which we absolutely loved.

We have already created a family tradition.. to make sure we visit this campsite atleast once every year!!

Liked Friendly staff, well organised, well spaced out, clean, wonderful view, inquisitive chickens, well stocked bar for drinks and snacks.

They've thought of everything with spare tent pegs available, Phone chargers etc.

Liked Lovely friendly camp site, that had everything you need.

Disliked I booked late and arrived late and the campsite was very full so I ended up camping near a road.

From the manager: No, you arrived late after booking a solo motorcyclist pitch, in a car with a bigger tent than would fit on those pitches.
Rather than turn you away we found you a space we would not normally use because it's near a road. This was your error so rather than leave negative comments in a review try owning your mistakes.

Liked Lee and his team were very friendly and welcoming. I really liked the outdoor bar area, where guests would gather and mingle - the drink was good and very low prices. I also liked the fact that the whole site is focused on customers enjoying their stay and making it fun and affordable for kids - feeding the chickens and having free ice-pops were small gestures that go a long way.

Disliked Nothing really... I can imagine some customers with "high standards" wouldn't like the toilets, showers and kitchen area, but this is back-to-basics camping, so if they are willing to recognise that and accept the authenticity of the site, then they will enjoy it as much as we did - that's what we paid for and expected.

Liked A very quiet and clean site, and the bar was great. An added bonus was having fresh eggs each morning.

My son loved helping Lee feed the chickens and pigs, and can't wait to come back.

Liked Really wonderful campsite, owner was incredibly welcoming and generous. There is a small store onsite with sweets/crisps etc and a mini bar. I forgot cheese for our pasta dinner, so I asked the owner if he had any (thinking he may have some in his shop) and he quickly nipped off to his house and got some out of his own fridge for us! Very kind. There are chickens loose on site, they're absolutely beautiful and it was lovely having them sat with us. The only thing I would advise is to keep an eye on your food as they are very pretty thieves! Overall a really wonderful campsite, lovely owner, lovely views and lush chickens. 5*

Liked Friendly owner
The children loved feeding the chickens
Ok for one night

Disliked Being out the front on some grass next to the car park. This was noisy next to the road, not secure and we felt disconnected from the site. We did not know we’d be put here because we have a dog.

The play area - it is a good 20/25 minute walk from the site and shouldn’t be listed as a facility in my opinion. I use the park facility to filter our results. We didn’t use it in the end as gave up walking after 20 minutes and still hadn’t reached it.

From the manager: A 20/25 minute walk? Were you hopping or crawling? It's a 3 minute walk through beautiful Welsh countryside - me thinks you got lost, which I would consider quite the achievement!

Liked Friendly, helpful staff, spacious pitch. Relaxed quiet site. I liked that the outdoor bar was supported by local people not just campers. I enjoyed meeting one or two other lone campers at the fire pit. Facilities were immaculate and everything I needed. Lovely farm site great for families and remote but handy for the little village.

Disliked Absolutely nothing! I hope to be back.

Liked Everything about the place is amazing. It’s really accommodating, and the owners are genuinely helpful, friendly, and welcoming. They’re always around if you need anything, or if you want advice about anything at all. The pitches are a great size, the toilets are accessible, and the showers are a real asset too.

We’re returning customers, and we’ve tried other campsites before, but it just wasn’t a match for New Inn. We knew it wouldn’t be right, and the owners made the difference. We’ll always go with our instinct and stick with what we know will be a great camping holiday for our family.

The campsite is large, but it’s still easy to navigate. There’s also the option to help out with feeding the chickens and pigs, which our children absolutely loved. A big bonus is that you can get fresh laid eggs for breakfast. You can place an order, and Lee will put them aside for you, which makes mornings so much easier.

This stay was even better than last time. It helped us remember just how much we love the place and why we come back again and again. We arrived with a few problems with our set up and we’d forgotten a few items, but Lee sorted us out straight away. Nothing was too much trouble, and he really does accommodate and find ways to help, even when it’s something that’s our own fault. The coffee machine was honestly a lifesaver for me this time, because I really needed my caffeine fix of lattes, and I loved having fresh options available instead of waiting for my own hot drink to brew.

Honestly, this is a hand-on-heart review. If you love camping and you’re travelling with a young family, this is the place to go. There’s plenty to do on site, and there are also great trails and nearby villages to explore, plus there’s a playground close by too. We can’t wait to come back, we’ve already booked again for in 10 days time.


Thank you Lee and everyone else for your hospitality and support and see you soon - Larkin Family (Kelly, Gary, Jayden, Jakob, Ariella and Lee, Rachel and Roman)
