Trawsdir Touring Caravans and Camping Park is situated on the Cardigan Bay coast just 2.5 miles north of Barmouth, on the Harlech Road A496 (bus route). By Car When you have reached Barmouth, follow the signs for Harlech (do not follow the beach signs in Barmouth) and pass through the town. Once you have passed through the town, you will come to a sign that says "Llanaber". Keep going along this main road. Pass the Church on the left hand side which takes you up the hill. Follow the road further until you come out of the 40 mph speed limit and reach a long straight. Look to your left and you will see a lot of Mobile Holiday Homes. Pass Caerddaniel until you reach the end of the straight, and pass the Wayside Pub/Fish Bar which is on the right. Trawsdir entrance is just a little further down the hill and is on the right. By Train Exit at the Train Station in Barmouth and go to the Bus Stop adjacent to it, and get on the bus heading towards Harlech. Ask the driver for Trawsdir. Although there is not a designated stop at the entrance to the Park, the driver will stop nearby.

Local attractions

There are plenty of things to do and a wide variety of attractions to visit in this beautiful part of Wales. There are many footpaths which offer excellent views of the countryside such as the “Mawddach Trail” over Barmouth Bridge or the “Panorama Mountain Walk”, both with views over the Mawddach Estuary, and you can savour the unique and historic town of Barmouth where the mountains meet the sea. For mountain biking enthusiasts there is the Coed y Brenin Centre, which offers forestry and hill trails varying from easy family runs to the expert “Bull Run”.

Enjoy a round of golf on the wooded hillside course at Dolgellau or at the splendid Royal St. David’s at Harlech. For the less experienced golfer, or those who wish to have a go at something less challenging, there is a small course at Fairbourne which is ideal for the whole family.
