About the site

Family run for over 50 years, this family friendly park offers an ideal base for adventures, fun and coastal escapes along Cardigan Bay. The seaside town of New Quay, the former home of Dylan Thomas, is a five minute drive (or a 50 minute walk) away, where you can hop on a boat tour to spot dolphins (if you're lucky), try watersports, hike the Coast Path or relax on Blue Flag Harbour Beach! Onsite, there are 29 electric hardstanding pitches, measuring 3m x 7.9m and equipped with a 16 amp hook up. These are suitable for caravans, campervans and motorhomes. The site is also home to a variety of static caravans and lakeside seasonal pitches. Whatever the weather, there's plenty to enjoy onsite. Take a splash in the heated indoor swimming pool, complete with a separate paddling pool for little ones, while the outdoor play areas and amusement arcade give kids plenty of space to let off steam. Fancy something a little different? Challenge the family to adventure golf, spend a peaceful afternoon fishing at the private lake or enjoy a stroll around the wildlife pond. When it's time to refuel, head to the clubhouse, home to restaurants and bars. Grab a bite to eat or sip a refreshing drink after a day exploring. Please note facility opening times vary throughout the season. If you're hoping to enjoy dinner al fresco, raised BBQs are permitted, provided they are supervised and kept in a safe area. Disposable BBQs are not allowed. Up to two dogs are welcome, so there's no need to leave your four-legged friends behind. A convenient dog walk is onsite or the year-round dog friendly Traeth Gwyn Beach is just a ten minute drive away, ideal for a seaside stroll.

Open from 19 March to 1 November.
