My partner Tracey and I have just returned from a week staying at Brynawelon, our second visit to the site. I've been coming to the area for every one of my 35 years, usually staying in my family's long standing holiday home on the sea front in Llangrannog. We've begun to prefer spending our time down here under canvas and stumbling across Brynawelon has proven a fantastic find.
The site is located in Sarnau, half a mile off of the main A487 Aberystwyth to Cardigan road on the inland side, far enough away not to be disturbed by road noise but close enough to be quickly on our way to whichever of the many beaches we've chosen for the day. Many may be put out by the site being so far from a beach, but experience has taught me that unless you're practically camped on a beach most will travel by car anyway. None of the local beaches are really within walking distance given that the lanes down to them are narrow and not safe for walking on. Penbryn, Tresaith and Llangrannog are all well within ten minutes drive from the site, with Aberporth and Cwmtydu a fraction further away. Mwnt and New Quay are both within 15 minutes drive. Sarnau has few amenities, save for the fantastic army surplus store and a nice farm shop. Realistically you will head for Tesco in Cardigan for your big shop, about 15 minutes away, or at the surprisingly well stocked Brynhoffnant Stores two minutes up the road.
Facilities at the site are extremely good. The shower/toilet block is modern and clean, free to use and of very good standard. Next door to this is a useful hut containing washing machines, dishwashing areas and a number of fridges/freezers. There is a reception with plenty of tourist information, and a games/TV room plus a sauna. The site is well maintained and the pitches themselves are generously sized. Hard, all-weather pitches are available if you prefer, although I find the grass pitches a little more comfortable. Water and electrical hook-ups are available if required, as is Wi-Fi. I will note though that, unlike sites closer to the beach resorts, you will get full phone signal here and be able to pick up 3G signal for surfing on your mobiles/laptops if you wish.
Some reviews have made note about the cockerel in the adjacent farm behind the tree line. While it was making itself heard when we were last here in September there was no sign of it this week so we assume it has met it's finger licking demise. There are sheep in the adjacent field that can be noisy, but then if you're choosing to camp in the country then you ought to expect a bit of wildlife.
The owners are very friendly and happy to chat. They've created a very nice site and one that we will continue to return to for as long as they'll have us.

What a little gem! I stayed here with my young family and another family for a week at the end of May both families were in tents and both families said they would return.
There were brilliant facilities such as a games room, a campers kitchen with fridges and kettles etc in, a playpark which was visable from where ever you were in the field.
The washrooms were out of this world! They were the cleanest I have ever seen and were proper showers like you get at home.
The site is a little way out and there isn't a shop or pub within walking distance but we spent a couple of days just sitting around and we didn't miss it!
The owners are so friendly and we came away feeling like we had made friends there. They are always around either cleaning or chatting away.
The only negative I would say is that we were put on an all weather pitch and it seemed to hold the water more than the grass. My tent was soaking and was sucking up the water so that everything inside was wet too. When I took the tent down it was sitting on a pool of water! The ground was boggy too and we got our car stuck once, the lady that owned the site very quickly came and pulled us out and said it was well known to be boggy in that area but didn't offer to move us!
All in all a lovely clean, friendly and cheap site. I will def return!
Management response: Thanks for your response, we had had an awful lot of rain in a very short space of time, resulting is many of our pitches flooding. Thankfully this happens only a handful of times a year and mostly not at popular times, this particular week we had so much rainfall in a short space that even the grass pitches were extremely boggy and would have been much worse for you packing up as I would guess that wet AND mud would have been a feature. I was the one who towed you out, but during our conversation was interrupted by another customer and never got back to you, I had wrongly assumed as you were camping as group that you didn't wish to move pitches. Please please please in future ask if you would like to move pitches and we would happily accommodate where possible, I can only apologise that I didn't ask you directly. We look forward to seeing you all at Brynawelon in the future.

Stayed for 5 nights over the bank holiday weekend, a good site in a location close to local beaches, some which you can take your dog on. Site only just off the A487 but no traffic noise a really quite site. Toilet and shower facilities overall good, even though the site was full we never had to wait, the showers were hot and free to use, but there we no hook or shelf in the shower to hang anything.
Owners really friendly when we arrived and showed us around the site.
Playground was a little disappointing as it looked fab in the photos for the kids, looked a bit worn and could have done with more bark chips on the floor.
Dog exercise area really small, only one dog at a time I think, but it served its purpose for early mornings or late nights.
Overall a good stay, and iam sure we will return

The site is small but has all facilities we could asked for. The toilets and showers are very clean. There is a bathroom with disabled and children facilities. It was perfect for me as I could perfectly fit there with my toddler - the other showers are a bit small to use with a small child. Wide choice of various beaches nearby (but you cannot walk there, it is too far). Farm shop also not far from the site (again, by car) with lots of local produced foods. Plenty to keep us busy. Weather could be better, but we will be back there. Staff very friendly, always around.

Wonderful site within a few miles of some of the best beaches in the UK. All weather pitches are a bonus - just avoid the one next to the main road - can be a bit noisy. Attentive owners, who were welcoming, kind and helpful. Lovely bathroom facilities the family bathroom is a godsend for kids. The kids play area is great for keeping the kids entertained however the approach was on occasion spoiled by thoughtless dog owners not tidying up after their animals. Two other outstanding features are the campers kitchen which has fantastic features and really engenders a wonderful communal atmosphere and the TV room which I shared with fellow campers to watch the opening ceremony of the Olympics.

We visited Brynawelon for a long weekend in July 2012 our first camping holiday for over 25 years and what a gem we found.
The site is very well equipped plenty of spotlessly clean showers, toilets etc. Excellent facilities in the campers kitchen including washing machines, fridges, freezers, microwave, toasters and kettles.
Staff were very helpful with handy hints on putting our tent up they even lent us an extension for our electric hook up because ours wasn't long enough.
We took our granddaughter who is 9 and she had a really good time as there is an enclosed park area and a games room.
The surrounding area is beautiful we visited Aberporth where there is a sandy beach with easy access, New Quay with its pretty harbour and visiting dolphins and Cardigan town which is a bustling place you can get your shopping from, Tesco, Lidl are on the outskirts.
We are hoping to book in a couple of weeks time to go back to Brynawelon because there is still so much to do and see and it will be nice to know we have all the facilities we could wish for come rain or shine
