Fully-serviced grass tent site

Liked: Just returned from 2 night stay 4th-6th June 2024 on plot 56. The site is immaculately clean, plenty of room between plots for all units. There is a handy dog walking area on site which was good to take the dogs round first thing & last thing at night. Location is also perfect, close to Anglesey (it took 40mins to get to Newborough Forest which is one of our faves) and is 13mins from Llanberis (another fave) with spectacular views. Friendly owners greeted with a smile at the barrier and a handy map of how to get to our level, secluded, fully serviced spot for the tent 🏕️ The site is well looked after, It’s a secure gated site with plenty of cameras which made us feel safe. There was table football, pool & ping pong to play and a little library by the bin store area! Toilet and shower facilities consistently clean and showers are powerful & hot! You can see the Snowdonia mountain range from the site 🤩 WiFi is also available for no extra charge & the signal is spot on, we watched England vs France (women) didn’t expect any signal but wish we’d have brought a bigger screen to a have movie night under the stars now 🍿 We will definitely be returning here in the future and have recommended all our family and friends come to stay! Thank you Rhyd y Galen 👏🏼

Powered grass site

Liked: The site is lovely and well kept, the staff are really friendly and even the pitches that are seasonal are so friendly and welcoming. The toilet and bathroom cubicles are immaculate, probably the best I've seen, and I liked how there are lots of them dotted around not just 1 area. You.can tell alot of money and thought has been put into the layout and grounds, our Shepherds hut was immaculate, coffee and essentials already there, as are towels and bedding and wood for the fire, it has absolutely everything you need! We will be coming back again and next time we are going to camp, we found the pitches were so large and private. Games barns and reading area a great addition and the views of the mountains superb. We had a beautiful time. A real family gem. Thank you

Powered grass site

Liked: So let's start from the beginning. We arrived at the site, welcomed with a smile. Lady gave us all the info including a little map how to get to our spot. Pitches are very good size, electric easy to hook up, every spot has a tap with water (very usefull), everywhere is very clean, grass trimmed, no rubbish, toilets are very clean and modern, hand dryers and hair dryers. there is even a little walk around the bushes if you have a dog with you. There is a washing machine and dryer as well and a little play are with pool table and other games. You really can't go wrong with that one. On top of that few minutes drive to shops if you need some supplies. Oh, let's not forget about decent WiFi in the tent ;)

Local attractions

Standing where the Afont Seiont river meets the Menai Strait, Caernarfon Castle (10 minutes’ drive) is a forbidding medieval fortress and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Perhaps best known as the place where Prince Charles was invested in 1969, it also houses the Royal Welch Fusiliers Museum, which explores the history of this infantry regiment. If you’re in a ‘feel the fear, but do it anyway’ mood, you can head to Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (20 minutes), where the Velocity 2 zipline stretches across a lake, allowing you to travel at speeds of up to 100mph. If you are brave enough to keep your eyes open during your flight, you can also take in splendid views of Eryri (Snowdonia). For something less hair-raising, Portmeirion (40 minutes) is a village featuring Italian-inspired pastel-coloured buildings and lush sub-tropical vegetation. Grab an ice cream from Italian gelateria Caffi’r Angel, and take a leisurely stroll through the quaint streets or along the sandy beach on the Afon Dwyryd estuary.
