A note from the site themselves...

Our sole aim is to provide the kind of campsite that we as a family would be happy to visit, again and again. We appreciate the desire to be in the heart of the action but miles from anywhere, to be able to see the sunrise in the morning and set in the evening, the smell of bacon cooking and the pleasure of sitting around the fire pit with family and friends.

Is there a better way to start and end your day of adventure in north Wales?

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesSep 2023

Our stay at Tros-y-Waen couldn't have been timed more perfectly. After months of rain, we picked what can only be described as the first weekend of summer! This made a massive difference to our stay. The ground for our camping was feeling the effects of the rain but that isn't in anyone's control. The site was well kept and very clean. Location wise, it's the best we have picked in all our years of visiting Wales. It was so easy to get to Colwyn Bay, Llandudno, Bangor, Caernarfon, and Anglesey, and not forgetting Llanberis for Snowden and even Betws-Y-Coed. So much to do. We're even contemplating retirement here it is that beautiful. We will be back!

Amazing stay - very welcomed!

Small Tent - Non-Electric Grass Tent PitchesMay 2023

It's what I needed. An amazing campsite, everything was there that I needed for the 2 days. A relaxed and beautiful atmosphere, facilities 5 star and clean, a wonderful owner there to check if you needed anything on site and a very friendly and quiet, peaceful environment. I will be returning and highly recommend for rejuvenation time. This is the camping place to go to be in solitude and not over crammed with campers, which I like. Check in times and checkout times spot on, gives you time not to rush and enjoy packing things away. It also gives you a chance to have a lie in, if that what your soul needs to enjoy the relaxing peaceful environment energy without the every day noise. Facilities were 5 star clean and kept cleaned by the staff. Also lovely to have slate slabs to put your camp fire on to respect the grass there, which was 5 star again. The owner was so kind in helping with putting my freezer packs in his freezer to keep my food cold and kindly gave me freezer cooling bags temporarily until mine had frozen up again. I would say this is a 10 STAR campsite. It was above and beyond and just quiet enough to have me time, especially after health recovery.
