 Two and a half years after out last visit (see below) we discover that the touring park is actually still open, so we book in for another spell.

Arriving at the new reception area I enquire what happened and was told that planning for the lodges was refused.

Arriving at our favourite pitch we notice that the area is much lighter and more spacious. Sadly, this is down to all the trees at the rear of the pitches having to be felled due to ash die-back.

However, it didn't feel as gloomy and the view across the valley was improved.

On our first afternoon we went for a short (10 mile) bike ride and arrived back in Cenarth with a thirst, so went into 'TY Te' tea shop, where we had a lovely welcome and enjoyed the delicious coffee and homemade cakes.

The next day we got the bus to Carmarthen as it was so wet and although a long, slow journey, it was nice scenery. Unfortunately Carmarthen has gone the way of lots of towns with empty shops increasing. We went into the Toby Inn for lunch and when my wife told the staff she needed gluten free and dairy free, she was presented with a tablet with page after page of meaningless information. The waiter returned and tried to explain it all but was as flummoxed as were were. After instructing my wife to declare that she should sign the disclaimer, we we went to the bar to order our carvery meal. My wife mentioned to the chef what her requirements were, whereupon the chef told her that the waiter should have explained exactly what she could and couldn't have. Thankfully, the chef did so instead and we had a reasonable meal.

On our third day we had a walk in the morning and a cycle ride in the afternoon and went for showers before going out for a meal.

Unfortunately, the lights went out before we had finished our ablutions and my wife had to scrabble around in the dark as the sensor didn't recognise her being there. We'd mentioned this on previous visits but nothing has been done about it.

Before the lights went out, we realised that the shower blocks weren't particularly clean at all.

Happily the evening was a success with superb food at the Three Horsehoes Inn. Thankfully when my wife explained her dietary requirements, the waitress explained things clearly and that there would be no problem catering for her whatsoever. Her sea bass was cooked to perfection and my chicken, ham and leek pie was delicious.

On booking out on our final morning I popped in to reception to thank them for accommodating us, and explained that the shower blocks weren't up to standard. We were told that the cleaner had suffered an injury and was incapacitated and that they would attend to the cleaning.

To be perfectly honest I feel that the touring section has suffered since planning for the lodges was rejected and that the owners don't seem interested in looking after it properly.

Walking around the whole park, we noticed that there were quite a few static caravans for sale and there were a lot of vacant plots too, whereas in the past, there were only one or two.

In general I felt that the site was fairly run down and unappealing and that in future if visiting Cenarth, we would choose to stay on the riverside park.

 Having a few days free and with fine weather forecast, we booked in, to be told they had room for us. Given that our last few visits we've been the only ones on site, we thought we might have some company - and we did. One camper van arrived and parked along side us for a couple of days.

The trees were just coming into leaf and the birds were singing their heads off the whole time we were there. As usual, we used the site as a base for a couple of really strenuous cycle rides and were glad of the piping hot water in the showers.

As it was our 48th wedding anniversary we booked a meal at the Three Horseshoes pub in the village. It's now run as a Steak and Burger restaurant and the food we had was scrumptious, certainly the best steak I've ever had.

Unfortunately, the toilets in the gents were "playing up' the following morning, which was apparently due to the septic tank being full, but things did improve.

We chose to use the Coracles leisure centre as usual, bit were shocked to find that the price had doubled. This was down to a complete refurbishment, which was a shock to the system on entering. We've always enjoyed the amount of light within the conservatory style swimming pool, but it has now been done out with black walls and ceiling with what appears to be a moving milky way and star pattern on the ceiling. Thankfully the jacuzzi was working this time, as was the newly fitted steam room. The whole area has been given an upmarket feel to it.

We enjoyed a peaceful last night and went into the reception area before leaving, to thank the receptionist for our stay. Just as we were leaving, we were asked if we knew that the touring section was closing on the 1st of May and was being converted to a lodge area.

So, from now on, no touring caravans or motorhomes allowed on site. After enjoying this park for over eleven years we are mightily disappointed to know that tourists are no longer welcome and that the new owners are apparently only interested in generating more income from upmarket lodges.

Which makes this review pretty pointless when all said and done, but at least it may warn others that they'll not be able to come again in future,

 Three years on from our last visit (see below) we discovered the site to be under new ownership with lovely friendly receptionists (as were the previous staff) who couldn't have been more helpful and pleasant.

We were the only ones staying on the touring section, so it was really peaceful.

Although free wi-fi was promised, we couldn't get a signal at all, though the new owners are apparently hopeful of getting it boosted.

As parts of the Coracle Leisure Centre were awaiting an upgrade, the indoor swimming pool was free to use and the second time we used it, we had it to ourselves for an hour.

As ever, the facilities block was immaculately clean and while we were on site, some contractors cut the grass around all the pitches and it looked splendid.

We hope to revisit once the site reopens next year and are looking forward to seeing how the new owners can possibly improve things.

 What a lovely site! One of the best or maybe even the best site we’ve been to.

It was immaculately kept and the facilities were all kept very clean. It was very peaceful with a quiet period from 10pm to 6 am which suits us fine - an undisturbed sleep.

The touring section has 28 good sized level pitches situated at the top of a static caravan park which was also kept very well. Each with EHU and two water supply taps at each side of the park.

Staff are really pleasant and the park has 2 swimming pools, one inside (heated) and one outside (unheated). There is pizza available on a weekend.

A short walk into the village with a couple of pubs, a cafe and a small supermarket in the garage. A little more expensive than we normally like to pay at £26 but was worth it.

Reviewer: Christ 1 review from this member

 Fantastic site

Thirty generously spaced pitches all hard standing, small clippings on a purpose under flooring. Awning pegged in easily.

All pitches are based around key accessibility toilet and shower facilities that are properly covid cleaned.

Tarmac travel areas meant the kids could scooter and cycle. There is a great child’s park and outdoors swimming pool plus a club house all incorporating covid precautions. Fantastic site and maintained to the highest standards.

New to towing, this site has excellent accessibility.

Locality, short drive to beaches and towns for bodyboarding and shopping respectively.

 I can't believe no-one has reviewed this site since my last one from March last year.

Amazingly, we were all on our lonesome again for the first night, although one caravan and another motorhome appeared for our last two.

This site is in a glorious location and the autumn colours were spectacular on site.

The local waterfalls were in full spate and were an incredible sight.

Although we normally cycle, nuevogirl is currently recovering from a hip replacement operation, so it was the local buses for us this time. One to Newcastle Emlyn and the following day to Cardigan. Both drivers were happy to drop us off near the caravan park entrance, which saved the old legs a bit.

We had a swim & jacuzzi in the on site Coracles leisure centre on two occasions and on one evening went into the bar/lounge for superbly fresh pizzas.

I think we've stayed on this site more than any other and we love it. Go, give it a try!

 Two nights spent on all our lonesome on this lovely site, just after the mini Beast from the East had left.

We had two glorious days of sunshine, taking in the delights of Cenarth with the wonderful Falls in full flow and the village looking gorgeous with the spring flowers abounding.

The site was as pristine as ever and we took the opportunity of using the swimming pool and jacuzzi in Coracles leisure centre on site.

£18 a night well spent.

 Lovely little site segregated from the static park. Good, clean, modern facilities. Friendly owners. Short walk to Falls and village where there are two pubs, a shop and a garage. £20 pn for two people with electricity and hardstanding. Recommended.

Reviewer: Nigeldermott 1 review from this member

 West Wales secret garden. Spotless clean and well manicured. Need to pre book as places fairly limited and set among static homes. Prepare to recycle. This is a proper little find. Warm welcome and come and go as you please. Secluded club house with bar, gym, indoor pool and occasional take out food. Outdoor poor is fantastic and nestled behind children's play area that is also very easy on the eye. Wifi and tv signal all fine. Close to cenarth falls and local pubs and 15 mins to the coast at cardigan. Will be coming back. Don't think I've ever given a 10?

 Wow, what a site, immaculately kept, outdoor pool was great for our few days as it was 25c

All services are first class, just a ten minute walk to the falls and the pubs there is a few restaurants down there but nothing special

This site comes out number one in my list

Flawless, will definitely be going back
