Picturesque forests, cascading waterfalls and rolling valley contours surround this cosy campsite in Mid Wales. The family-owned Woodlands Devils Bridge prides itself on its friendly welcoming atmosphere and the incredible beauty of the rural Welsh landscape that borders the park in all directions.

Located right in the heart of the country, this is the perfect base for exploring the many world-renowned natural treasures of Wales. Head out of the park and you’ll find yourself amid a beautiful, unspoilt area of gentle green valleys, home to red kites and other magnificent wildlife. Venture further, and you’ll encounter the awe-inspiring mountains of Snowdonia a short distance north, and the wilderness region of the Cambrian Mountains – aka, the Desert of Wales - to the south.

Woodlands is only 12 miles from the sea and the coastal town of Aberystwyth, which, among other attractions, boasts a long sandy beach and a high-quality golf course. The charming streets of Aberystwyth are also home to bustling independent shops, bars and restaurants to suit all tastes and budgets.

On arrival at Woodlands, you’ll be greeted by a park perfectly set up to cater to your needs and comfort. The onsite café awaits with tasty food, the tearooms with refreshing hot drinks and snacks, and the park shop with all the everyday essentials you could need during your holiday in Mid Wales.

Onsite entertainment includes table tennis, a playground for the kids, pleasant walks around the 400-acre neighbouring farm and stunning views of the surrounding valleys and forests. There’s also a free-to-use WI-FI hotspot and modern, well-maintained wash facilities. Listen out for the soft 'toot toot' of the Vale of Rheidol steam train puffing its way through the valley below.

Woodlands Devils Bridge welcomes tents, tourers and motorhomes. Alternatively, you can choose to stay in one of the park’s glamping pods or holiday home. And, with its great selection of holiday homes for sale, you also have the option to make a patch of this amazing park your very own home-from-home.

Woodlands Devils Bridge

“Excellent ”
We were looking for a quiet location after a hard day’s mountain biking in a venue just up the road, and woodlands ticked all the boxes, on Sunday we had a lovely walk in the gorge at Devils Bridge, the toilet block was absolutely spotless and underwent regular cleaning, they also have a good pebble system to tell how many people are in the toilet/shower blocks, will definitely be returning there.

“Perfect site - will definitely be returning”
We stayed here for one night whilst visiting family in Aberystwyth in our camper. The staff were great, keeping us fully informed throughout the booking process despite covid complications. The toilets were exceptionally clean and I would say the bet we have ever come across. We will definitely be returning when we are able to.

Liked: Very friendly staff, the site its self is beautiful. Very covid safe liked the pebble idea for making sure there are not too many people in the bathroom. The bathrooms were lovely and clean. The shower cubicles we the best design i have ever seen in a camping tourer site finally a sesting area with hooks seperated from the actual shower but so your towels and things done get wet and you actually have room to change properly.
There was lovely grassy areas to play if you have younger kids and a park, dog friendly with areas to walk.
Close to the places we wanted to visit.

Disliked: nothing

“Camping, excellent site & immaculate toilet block.”
Myself and a friend had booked this site initially for a single night - we we're on a motorbike trip and camping. Ample space for a couple of tents, heated toilet block was immaculate. With the Covid restrictions, the organisation for safety and social distancing was very simple and effective. Due to the location, cleanliness and facilities on the site, we decided to extend our booking and use the site as a base for our weekend biking trip to Wales. Would definitely stay here again.

Woodlands Devils Bridge

Liked: From the start it was a wonderful experience, the staff were friendly and helpful and the grounds looked after very well, looking fantastic with statues of animals, and the toilets were the best I have ever seen and used, spotlessly clean. Management and staff have worked on keeping you and others safe due to this awful covid 19, they have put into place a simple but effective way to make sure not too many people use the toilets by using pebbles. The snackebar is a brilliant idea due to the cafe/restaurant on site not being able to open at this time understandably. The electric hookup pitches are very spacious and you don't feel like you are squashed up to eachother giving plenty of space to relax, you can hire a WiFi hub for a small fee but you will need to be quick as they get hired out very quickly, we were on EE network on our phones, and had good phone signal and also could use our phones WiFi with no problems. Beautiful views and so close to the beautiful devil's bridge being only a five minutes walk away to the starting point and finish, that was the main reason why we booked this site originally, but we were very lucky to have found such a lovely camp site and will most definitely be recommending to others, we are already looking forward to coming back for next year.

Woodlands Devils Bridge

Liked: Great camping and touring site, well maintained and excellent facilities. My husband and I came with my father in law, we were in a tent and he was in a caravan. They very kindly put us on a pitch together.
The site is immaculate and we were very lucky with the weather. I will be commending to all my friends and family. Will be definitely be coming back.

Woodlands Devils Bridge

We stayed here for two nights in mid-September 2019. There are lots of great things about this site. The caravan and camping area is spacious and the caravan pitches are large and easy to manoeuvre into. This area is set away from the road and backed by lovely fells to which there is easy access for walking. Although there are also statics here, they are discretely laid out and in separate areas. The facilities block is new, attractive, clean and loads more complimentary words! There is lots of space for children and some swings etc. All the notices are done in a friendly way. The staff we met were welcoming, helpful and friendly, especially when it came to discussing the best way to get back from Abersytwyth after the train ride. We were in the caravan area, but the camping area looked equally good. All in all a really nice place.
