October at Penrhos Park is all about embracing the glorious shift in seasons – the natural scenery around us is a masterpiece of burnt orange and deep crimson, offering the perfect backdrop for a restorative and fun-filled autumn getaway.
Think less frantic summer beach trip and more crackling fires, hearty food, and adventures where the mud simply adds to the fun. Here’s how you can make the most of the season with us.
The Art of the Autumnal Walk
Penrhos Park is nestled in 150 acres of private grounds, and the surrounding Ceredigion countryside is an explorer’s dream. This time of year offers the most atmospheric walks:
Head out to our woodland paths and experience the leaves reaching their peak colour. The true scenery of autumn.
Keep your eyes on the skies! Penrhos is in prime Red Kite territory. Watch these magnificent birds soar effortlessly against the backdrop of the hills. It’s a truly Welsh spectacle you won’t soon forget.
While the park is inland, you’re only a short drive from the Cardigan Bay coast. Wrap up warm and take a brisk walk along the beach at nearby Aberaeron or New Quay. There’s nothing quite like the sound of the waves and the feel of the cool sea air to clear the mind.
Indulge in Cosy Penrhos Life
After a day of exploring, the real treat begins back at the park. Autumn is the season of comfort, and we’ve got you covered:
If you’re staying in one of our Luxury Log Cabins settle down for an evening soak in your private hot tub. Watching the stars emerge as you relax in the warm, bubbling water is the ultimate way to unwind.
The cooler temperatures make for fantastic golfing conditions. Book a round on our 18-hole Championship Course or practice at our Driving Range, with Trackman. With the low autumn sun casting long shadows and the trees framing every hole, it’s arguably the most picturesque time to play.
Gather the family at our on-site restaurant. Our chefs are serving up hearty, locally-sourced comfort food - perfect fuel after a day outdoors. Pair it with a fine wine or a local ale in our bar and savour the moment.
Holiday Homework: An Adventure Checklist
Need to keep the kids (or big kids) entertained during the Half Term break? Tick these off your local adventure list:
Explore the ruins of Aberystwyth Castle or visit the National Trust’s beautiful Llanerchaeron Estate for a peek into Welsh Georgian life.
Take a trip on the Vale of Rheidol Railway. It’s a magical way to see the autumnal colours of the valley without having to walk up a single hill!
Don't forget our Indoor Heated Swimming Pool. A quick dip is a fantastic way to burn off energy and warm up again.
October is a time for slowing down, appreciating the beauty of nature, and creating those warm, golden memories. Penrhos Park is waiting to be your home-away-from-home this autumn.
