- Please download the map of the farmyard & campers notes from our website prior to your arrival and read it carefully, so that you can familiarise yourself with the farm layout, Cae Gwyn camping rules, and the whereabouts of the facilities for campers.

- As Cae Gwyn camping fields are part of a working sheep farm, please respect the working of the farm and farm conditions i.e. cars not always allowed in camping fields especially in wet conditions.

Camping rules at Cae Gwyn

- Our opening hours for admission are 9am to 7pm. We would be grateful if you could respect our opening hours especially after 7pm, and as the farmhouse is our home as well, please ring the bell at the bottom of the front steps for attention rather than walk straight into the farmhouse.

- Please do not erect tents or take cars into our camping fields before you have checked in at the farmhouse.

- In wet conditions vehicles are not allowed on the camping fields so you will be asked to park your car in the car park.

- For the sake of other campers, please inform us immediately of any problem with our facilities i.e. showers, toilets, basins, etc..

- Please do not put loose rubbish in the green wheelie bins. If you need bin bags please ask at the farmhouse.

- Please do not throw away used gas canisters in the bins, and take home large unwanted/broken items i.e. chairs/ tables/ barbecues/ inflatable beds etc. as you will otherwise be charged for safe disposal.

- You are welcome to use portable and reusable barbeques with stand, but please ensure that they are approximately 20cm off the ground to avoid scorching the grass.Please do not bring disposable barbecues, to help reduce the volume of refuse. We usually have some BBQs available to use, please ask.
