The Owner Says
Stroll or drive down a quiet farm track to Love At First SITE. A very private, peaceful and spacious pitch, approx 13mx25m. Fantastic for families, friends and couples who really want to escape from it all. There's enough space for a Bell Tent and a smaller tent, or campervan and a tent, or a small caravan (as in the photo) etc. There is a private outdoor (warm) shower with a canvas surround positioned on the pitch along side a washing up sink. There is a private compost toilet nearby for exclusive use by campers on this pitch. The picnic table and fire bowl make it a convenient pitch if you haven't room for camping chairs and tables in the car! Next to a mixed woodland, it enclosed with a by hedges and banks. Adjacent to Mid Field, the Hay Meadow which is further up the track and another field handy for having a stroll and walking the dog when the livestock are elsewhere. Accessible by car it is a 5 minute walk to the farm shop through the newly planted meadow. Please note that there is no electric hook up or chemical toilet disposal. Drinking water is available on the farmyard.

Nantgwynfaen Organic Farm is a very special place. It is a working farm with sheep and sometimes cattle in the summer. It is just so peaceful – a place to unwind and listen to the birds. Each camping pitch is carefully laid out in their own private space with only the green countryside to soak up. It is a quiet family-friendly site suitable for families, couples, retired couples and anyone who just loves the great outdoors. BBQs & Campfires welcome and each pitch has a firepit.
There is a large games barn, with table tennis, pool and a darts board (bring your own darts). The farm shop is well stocked with local and organic produce as well as charcoal and firewood. Dogs are most welcome.
The communal toilet and shower facilities are located on the farmyard in a stylish zinc building, where there is free hot water. There is a dish washing sink and drainer, an open-air wash hand basin for face, teeth and hands; a shower cubicle with a quirky watering can shower; and a toilet and sink cubicle. There is a fridge and a freezer for freezing blocks. Note: some camping pitches have private toilet and shower facilities (Sun of a Pitch, Love at First Site & I Got 99 Problems But A Pitch Ain’t One).
The farm is well situated for exploring Cardigan Bay, with Aberaeron to Cardigan; and Carmarthen to Lampeter all within a half hour drive. The River Teifi, Newcastle Emlyn, The National Woollen Museum are all very local.
There is a village shop and gastro pub nearby. Shops and fuel in Llandysul and Newcastle Emlyn is conveniently located with all amenities.
As well as the camping pitches at Nantgwynfaen there is other accommodation available for those who want a break from canvas.

There is also accommodation in the stone farmhouse where you will find a double room with a sweet adjoining private kitchen called Y Parlwr Bach (the little parlour). There is also a second double bedroom (room only), The Room At The Top (so a maximum of 4 can sleep in the farmhouse). Contact Nantgwynfaen direct discuss the options.
