Teifi Meadows

11 units · Glamping, Motorhomes, Tents3 acres · L Ampeter
We are a small, peaceful. secluded campsite bordered by woodland and a stream, set amidst the wildlife country of the Ceredigion countryside on the edge of the Cambrian mountains. With only 20 camping pitches and 'The Bothy' shepherd's hut, Teifi Meadows is a place to relax, unwind and appreciate the calming beauty of nature. This is a dark sky zone with stunning celestial views on clear nights, and near-zero light pollution as well as pristine air and water quality. Our guests tend to appreciate the quiet stillness here and we don't have a lot of disturbances...so all you will hear is the wind, the birds, the rushing streams and perhaps the odd cow! :) Everyone, even the cynical, should have a little romance in their lives. Especially if it includes a scenic setting with easy access to local pubs (a holiday extra that thaws the icy hearts of the cynical even more than blazing sunsets). Teifi Meadows should warm the battery of your camera as well as the cockles of your heart: this is wildlife country – look out for red kites overhead – in the midst of the greenery of the Ceredigion countryside, and close to the walks, dolphin spotting and beaches of the stunning west coast and Cardigan Bay. National Trust sites, River Teifi fishing and canoeing, mountain pony trekking, Roman gold mines and blooming great gardens are in the area too. Lampeter, about three miles away, has plenty of food shops, independent stores and a farmers’ market, and the pub at Cellan, also three miles away, serves food and Sunday lunches - another romantic highlight…

Cabins near Cheltenham guide

Overview

Cheltenham, a charming Spa town in Gloucestershire, serves as a gateway to diverse camping adventures. Delve into the Forest of Dean, where hikes to old mine shafts meander through whispering trees. Find both secluded forest camping pods and more primitive camping sites along the edge of the forest. Or, ramble along Cotswold Way, which winds through picturesque villages and sweeping landscapes. Camping options dot the route, from rustic tent pitches to campsites equipped for caravans. Don’t forget to bask in the grandeur of Blenheim Palace, where history merges with vast parklands. A short distance away are holiday parks set against the backdrop of this baroque masterpiece that provide various amenities.

Where to go

Forest of Dean

Visit the Forest of Dean for a realm of verdant greenery and ancient trees. Delight in the wooded Family Cycle Trail to discover old mine shafts and ironworks hidden amongst the trees. Venture to Symonds Yat Rock to see views of River Wye or look out for wildlife at Cannop Ponds. Campers can pitch a tent on private lands along the edge of the forest, park the motorhome in pitches with electric hookups and toilets, or glamp in an insulated wooden camping pod nestled among the pine trees.

The Cotswold Way

This iconic trail showcases the best of the English countryside, with sweeping views of quaint villages and historic landmarks. For campers, it’s not just about hiking; it's also about taking in the tranquil beauty of the Cotswolds. Hike along parts of the trail to see Broadway Tower or Belas Knap Long Barrow on Cleeve Hill. Then, pitch a tent, park the caravan, or settle into a cabin under the stars in the many campsites dotted along or near the route. Many of these pitches also offer amenities like clean toilets, potable water, and picnic areas.

Blenheim Palace

Blenheim Palace’s vast grounds provide a picturesque setting for campers visiting the area. Beyond touring the baroque masterpiece used in the Netflix show Queen Charlotte and birth room of Sir Winston Churchill, the surrounding parklands are also a treat. With vast lakes, ancient trees, and the iconic Grand Bridge, it's a backdrop like no other for picnics and relaxation. Nearby, campers will find grounds offering tent and caravan pitches with facilities ranging from basic sites to those with electric hookups, toilets, showers, and free wifi. There’s also an on-site lodge available.
