Cardigan, Wales · 8 units · Tents, MotorhomesIn 2026, we are excited to open our new campsite! Maes Gwennol Camping is a small, peaceful campsite set within a 30-acre ecological cohousing community, just 3 miles from Cardigan (Aberteifi) and 6 miles from the sea. Surrounded by meadows, wildlife and far-reaching views, this off-grid, low-impact campsite offers plenty of space to relax and reconnect with nature.
We steward our land to regenerate ecosystems and support wildlife. Public footpaths lead directly from the site through a secluded river valley, woodland and the wider landscape, making it an ideal base for walkers, nature lovers and anyone looking to experience the beauty of West Wales at a slower pace.
The campsite is also just a 20-minute walk from the National Eisteddfod site at Llantood, making it a convenient and peaceful place to stay during the festival.
We accommodate a maximum of 6 pitch areas and 2 campervan spaces, ensuring a relaxed atmosphere and plenty of room between guests. Each pitch has its own mown camping area and there is at least 10 metres between pitches. There is loads of space to play games, run around and relax. Additional areas are available for parking cars, campervans and trailer tents.
Facilities are simple and low impact and include compost toilets, drinking water tap and outdoor washing-up area. Campfires are welcome in our fire pit areas, allowing you to enjoy evenings under the stars.
We encourage guests to tread lightly and enjoy the land respectfully. As part of our low-impact approach, we do not provide refuse collection, so guests are asked to take home any recycling and non-compostable waste. Compostable materials can be placed in the compost toilet system.
When available, we can offer seasonal vegetables, fruit, cider and eggs from our free-range chickens, produced within the community.
From the campsite you can easily explore Cardigan and the surrounding countryside...the beaches, coastal paths, the Teifi River and Teifi marshes reserve and wildlife of the Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion coast. Whether you're visiting for the Eisteddfod, exploring the coast, walking local footpaths or simply seeking a peaceful place to camp, Maes Gwennol offers a simple, spacious and nature-focused camping experience in a beautiful corner of West Wales.
