Barmouth campsites
Barmouth balances itself on the estuary beside Cardigan Bay in glorious North West Wales. On one side is the luscious coast and harbour and on the other, an imposing mountain range. Wander the slated rooves and quaint cottages of Barmouth's old town and stroll the river as sun sets. Barmouth campsites treat you to both the pretty Mawddach Estuary and either Snowdonia's mighty challenge or the eyewateringly gorgeous Taith Ardudwy Way.

Things to do in Barmouth
The town of Barmouth is prettily located on the Mawddach estuary which is a tempting spot for walking and birdwatching or just wiling away a lazy afternoon.
But you won’t stay away from the coast for long! Stunning Barmouth Beach is all about family fun, with safe bathing and lots of sand for building sandcastles, beach sports or sun tanning. There’s a chance to join the vintage seaside atmosphere of candy floss and donkey rides, so pop up a deckchair and forget the time.
The beach is also great for laidback seaside strolls. Don't miss a walk over Barmouth Bridge which provides excellent views of the surrounding area.
Pretty Barmouth Harbour is also great for a laidback walk or sitting and taking in the sights. In the windier months, this is the ideal spot to fly a kite on the sea breeze. Entertaining fishing and wildlife watching boat trips are available too, from Barmouth Boat Trips.
Ty Crwyn or ‘the roundhouse’ is a free entry monument a little above the historic harbour in Barmouth that deserves a moment of your time. Revel in the peace and quiet reflection at what was once a lock up for drunken neighbours in the town.
The Barmouth Lifeboat Station also has bagloads of heritage, first built on the spot in 1828, with the chance to see lifeboats up close and hear tales of daring rescues. To learn about the work of RNLI lifeguards, you can organise a beach visit too for your group, and lifeguards will explain how it’s not all quite like Bondi Rescue.
A great way to discover the town is to follow the Heritage Trail via a network of open trails and paths. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy following the Mawddach Trail and the Ardudwy Way, as well as connecting with the extensive Wales Coast Path which can take you on incredible journeys. Excellent views are also on offer during the walk up the local hill known as Dinas Oleu.
It’s worth exploring further field as there’s more to see and do nearby too. Take a ride on the Fairbourne Miniature Railway or explore the town of Tywyn and enjoy a steam train ride on the Talyllyn Railway.
Families will also be fascinated by a trip to King Arthur's Labyrinth in Corris, where a boat will sail you past waterfalls into an ancient labyrinth, where you’ll hear myths and legends of times gone by.
The market town of Dolgellau has many listed buildings to discover, while a trip to Harlech is a great chance to discover Harlech Castle. Slightly further away, the coastal town of Porthmadog is famous for The Cob, a mile-long embankment across the estuary that shaped the destiny of the town and is a haven for outdoor holidaymakers.
Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts should also not miss the stunning Snowdonia National Park.
