  • 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.

What customers say

Campers rave about the stunning spot and spotless, modern facilities, especially showers. Staff are friendly & helpful, pitches spacious. Great for Devil's Bridge & walks. WiFi glitches & cafe hours were minor issues. Highly recommended, many keen to return.

Liked We had a lovely stay at Woodlands Caravan Park. The park was clean, peaceful, and very well maintained, with a really friendly atmosphere from the moment we arrived. The location is great for a relaxing family break, and the surroundings are beautiful. Everything was well organised, and the facilities were kept to a very good standard. It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy quality time away.
We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing caravan holiday. We will happily return again in the future!

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked A great site, with excellent facilities. Check in was smooth, and it was very quiet & peaceful at night. I’d say it was one of the best sites we’ve stayed on.

With it being a busy bank holiday weekend, there was queues for showers at times, and times where the toilet block was covered in grass, but with kids running in and out & a full site, it’s to be expected.

Free wifi & TV signal also didn’t live up to the expectations they set, but again, not essential for the weekend - something to bare in mind if you like chilling watching TV though!

We’d still visit again!

Electric grass pitch

Liked Great campsite, spotlessly clean, great showers, toilets, washing up facilities. Really friendly staff

Disliked Not great to be disturbed at 10am on check out day by the next people due on our pitch to ask what time we planned to leave. One of the reasons we’d specifically chosen the park was because check out time is 1pm so had planned a chilled morning, however the site and staff can not be blamed for the behaviour of other campers.

From the manager: Thank you for your feed back. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed the park and facilities. It is unusual for the next customers to arrive early and disturb the current customers. If people arrive early we suggest they park in the early arrivals bay and wait until their plot is free. It didn't occure to us that they would approach you and enquire when you might be leaving. Our appologies.

Amazing place I would recommend 100 procent, very clean

Liked The ladies at reception was so lovely and helpful.

Disliked I’m a dog lover but it was too many of them wasn’t very quiet during a night.

From the manager: Thank you for staying at The Woodlands. I'm pleased to hear that your welcome was warm and friendly. I'm sorry to hear that the amount of dogs on the park was too much for you. It does vary from night to night.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (solo)

Liked Amazing location, wasnt busy, showers, toilets and washing area all absolutely clean and brilliant. Great value for money.
Left welcome sheet on window when arriving after hours but...

Disliked When you drive in, you automatically face into the caravan sight, I spent ages driving around, went back to reception to find clear signs for the camping site but it only.said overflow car park. I rang.the bell and a lad came out, I gave feedback but his attitude was sadly not good, he wasnt listening and seemed like he didnt care. I recommended putting signs up he didnt even seem bothered.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed staying at the park and that the facilities were to your liking. The welcome map left for you should have been highlighted with the directions to your plot; I'm sorry if this wasn't done for you. There are also signs leading the way to the camping field so maybe the staff member was confussed by your recommendation. I will definately pass on your comments to our late arrivals staff and we will work on how he needs to respond to customer needs as the season progresses. It's his first time in a role like this and we are encouraging him to engage more with campers when they arrive. Thank you for staying at The Woodlands and we appreciate your feeback so that we can adjust the way we provide our information.

We only stayed for 1 night so did not use the cafe.

Liked Spacious pitches that were very clearly defined and all neat and tidy.
The sculptures around the site and the painted agricultural machinery added lots of interest.
Clean toilets and showers. The children’s playground is an added bonus for families.

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.
