About Rhyd y Galen Caravan and Camping Park
The site is a tranquil destination, perfect for a quiet holiday. Unwind at your pitch as you marvel at the views of Eryri (Snowdonia National Park), just a 15 minute drive away, or get out and explore the nearby coastline or the beautiful Isle of Anglesey. Tents, trailer tents, campervans, motorhomes and caravans are welcome across the site's range of grass pitches. Either opt for one of the 13 non electric pitches, or chose one of the 18 pitches which comes with a 16 amp electric hookup. If you are looking for all of the amenities, the site also has five fully serviced grass tent pitches and six fully serviced hardstanding pitches which are suitable for caravans, motorhomes, campervans, tents and trailer tents. The fully serviced pitches come with a 16 amp electric and water hookup, along with a grey waste drain. All of the pitches welcome up to six guests, with well-manicured grounds and planting all around. If glamping is more your style, the site also has a charming shepherd's hut for two. The hut comes equipped with a double bed, bedding, linen, a single gas stove, a table and chairs, crockery, a toilet, sink, gas, electric and a wood-burning stove for those cooler nights. Outside you will also have your own decking area with a fire pit and BBQ, perfect for al fresco cooking. When staying on any of the pitches, fire pits and BBQs are welcome as long as they are raised from the ground. The site also has fire pits available for hire, great for evenings of toasting marshmallows! Up to two four-legged friends are also welcome in camping or parking up your tourer, so make room for the dog bed. Please note dogs are not allowed in the shepherd's hut. There are 38 seasonal pitches also onsite, each fully serviced and suitable for extended stays.

Camping pitch was ideal and on level ground. Toilets and showers were modern and always very clean. Location was perfect if you have a car to travel to different places.

We have had a wonderful stay here this week. Such a beautiful site with the cleanest facilities. Booking was easy, check-in was easy and the site was secure. The 'games room' was disappointing (a barn room with a few free standing games tables), but that wasn't an issue. Some benches in the main shower block would have been ideal (to make changing and showering easier), but the shower facility in the small block was fab. We used the smaller bathroom block as it was closest. It was wonderful: spacious, hot water all the time and super clean. Plenty of space between pitches. Highly recommended. We would certainly return.

This was the 4th and last campsite that we stayed at over our 10 day holiday. Both my partner and I both agreed that it was the best! The previous sites we had stayed on were also lovely, but this 1 just seemed to have the edge. As I have mobility issues, the disabled facilities were a life saver! I have a slight OCD problem when it comes to the cleanliness of toilets and showers, so I was delighted to find that both the disabled toilet and walk in shower were spotless. So, if you are thinking of booking this site, don't hesitate! We would return in a heart beat.
