The village of St Dogmaels is just
two miles away from Allt
Y Coed and is a must see when visiting the area, from
its wonderful 12th century St
Dogmaels Abbey ruins overlooking neat lawns and the great
duck pond below. Along the way is a is Y
Felin Water Mill & Tea Rooms that still make its own
flour, with its tea room offering pastries baked from it s
own produce, then there's estuary walks heading back towards
Poppit Sands with fabulous
views across the estuary towards Gwbert and the headland above.
Across
the coastal road from here you approach the picturesque secluded
Mwnt. Last but not least there are several pubs and restaurants
just a short journey from the campsite in St. Dogmaels. The
village of St Dogmaels (or Llandudoch) has been awarded the
Calor Gas Village of the Year award. There is also a general
store and Post Office.Closer to home is Poppit Sands, (1 1/2
miles away) and is used for a wide range of activities, and
has a cafe and shop.

shops too and lots of local craft shops amongst much more.
