Why stay here ...

Croeso, Welcome

The CL is part of Cefn Coch  an old traditional Welsh Country Farm  House situated on the southern edge of the Snowdonia National Park, where the mountains meet the sea.  

The house is steeped in history and has in the past been a coaching inn, a working farm and is recorded as being the last tavern in the village of Llanegryn. Evidence of it's history can still be found in several areas of the house and gardens. Extended family members and friends are welcome to stay for' bed and breakfast'.

The CL is a secluded level area of about 0.50 acre grass meadow and has been described as a place of peace and tranquillity. We are an adult only site. Pets are welcome and there is direct access to good dog walks. There is a hard standing site and all pitches have electrical hook-up and space for awnings. There is a toilet on site. The entrance to site is not suitable for twin axel units.

We would like you to get the most out of your stay at Cefn Coch. Taste some local food. Enjoy local lamb, tasty cheeses, creamy yoghurts and potent beers - all made in Wales.

Throughout the seasons the views are constantly changing, from the snow-capped mountains in the winter, spring time lambs and the beautiful lush green pastures of summer. At any time of the year Cefn Coch offers a secluded and beautiful setting for quiet relaxation.

Take in some Welsh culture and enjoy the many attractions and spectacular scenery.

The area is well known for its spectacular countryside, mountain and coastal walks, many of these can be started from the CL.

Cefn Coch is a haven for many birds. Buzzards, Red Kites and Cormorants are frequently seen. It has spectacular views over the Dysynni Valley and surrounding countryside.  

From the CL you can see the famous Bird Rock and Cader Idris Mountain range which is very imposing at the head of a tranquil valley.

Within easy reach are many interesting and entertaining places to visit, historic castles, narrow gauge railways, gold and slate mines.

Sea and freshwater fishing, pony trekking, and bike hire is available.

You may wish to visit Ynys -hir home of the BBC Spring Watch or spot Britain's rarest bird of prey at Dyfi Osprey Project.

Cefn Coch is therefore a perfect base for exploring the beautiful Snowdonia National Park - both its mountains and its coast and for exploring the many spectacular and unique narrow gauge steam railway experiences in Mid Wales.

Steam through unspoilt on the Talyllyn Railway, or take the Welsh Highland Railway from Porthmadog to historic Caernafon.

Travel through the magnificent Snowdonia countryside on the Ffestiniog Railway or the Vale of Rheidol Railway from scholarly Aberystwyth to intriguing Devils Bridge.

Walk the Mawddach trail featured on the BBC Railway Walks with Julia Bradbury.

Ride the water powered cliff railway into the famous Centre for Alternative Technology.

Close to Wales Coastal Path and our CL has mountain views.

Please use Green toilet fluid only (biological system).

Having looked through the book for a last minute overnight stop, we called to make a booking, only to be told somewhat dismissively that they weren't open. This was very disappointing after seeing previous reviews, and while they've clearly amended the opening times for next year (2022) in the online... Show more

Another superb visit

We have visited Cefn Coch many times, over the past few years and have found Mike and Pat brilliant hosts. The site is situated overlooking Bird rock and Cader Idris,which has a calming influence,after a hard day, visiting local attractions. A glass of wine also helps.!!! Hopefully another visit will be on the... Show more

This was our second choice, (first being full) in this area, the reviews, which we rely on made it our second choice. We found the site easily but were confused by the closed gates and no arrow under the club site sign. Getting in and pitching was easy enough... Show more

A great welcome in a superb location

This lovely CL is located in a glorious part of west Wales, the views make opening the blinds every morning a joy. The owners are kindness personified, booking was easy and the welcome great. I'd warmly recommend Cefn Coch to anyone (and often do)

Tip when positioning your caravan on this cl.

This is a great site and kept very well but a little tip for other users is to make sure you site your van with the pitch number marker at the center of your caravan !
