Tyn-yr-Onnen Farm and Campsite Reviews

Wonderful campsite!

Wonderful stay at this beautiful campsite. We stayed in the Eilio pod which was very spacious, yet cosy, which had lighting and heating. Amazing views, BBQ and optional fire pit hire. Facilities were very clean and a good shower. Darren gave us a very warm welcome and was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, making good recommendations. The campsite is on a working farm and we were able to feed the donkeys. We bought donkey food from the campsite reception, which also has some essentials and snacks. Such a nice stay and campsite!

Good location, inconvenient pitching

Great location with a shop in reception: showers and toilets available. It was a short drive from Mount Snowdon, which we had intended to climb the next day. Toilets could have been cleaner and the pitch itself was rocky under about 2 inches of soil. Not expecting this, we didn't pack rock pegs and so the tent collapsed in the night and needed taking down in the wind and rain. Materials for fires were provided but, despite being told the fire curfew was 11pm, we were told to extinguish at 10pm. This site was in a lovely location with great walks and nice facilities for young families. Our experience was ruined by the inaccessible pitch unfortunately and after getting 1 hour sleep in the car, we were unable to climb Snowdon.

Site's response

Thanks for the review and I am sorry that your tent collapsed. If you had asked for stronger tent pegs then we have plenty for you to borrow. Our toilets are checked throughout the day and we have many positive reviews for cleanliness, something we pride ourselves on. If the weather is very inclement then sometimes its difficult to keep them perfect. Not sure about the camp fire issue, you read the terms and conditions for a fire and the time for the fire to be extinguished is highlighted heavily as 22:30. Lastly, we do not have any pitches that are inaccessible. Its such a shame that you did not raise these issues when you were staying with us. Len

Excellent!

We stayed for a short break in the Easter holidays and had a wonderful stay. The site is in a great location, with lovely views and great facilities for a small farm site. Very clean showers with plenty of hot water. The staff were extremely helpful. Highly recommended!

Family friendly site

The staff on site were really helpful, warm and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The site was in a lovely rural location, was quiet and had everything you would need and expect on site. This was a great base for us exploring North Wales, particularly the Snowdonia area, with Snowdon itself just 15 minutes away. The shower facilities were clean and had plenty of room in them, especially to keep your things dry. A small onsite shop selling essentials was a great saviour too. The site is on a working farm so you can see the animals up close and feed the donkeys.

Peace and quiet

A lovely park in a beautiful part of North Wales. Despite the gale force winds we faced the two nights we stayed, we had a lovely time.The kids loved feeding the donkeys and playing in the little park. We had a great time.

Brilliant location, facilities and staff

We had a brilliant long weekend at Tyn-yr-Onnen, the location is perfect for a quiet getaway. We stayed in a pod which was nice and warm despite the October weather, with plenty of room for the two of us and a dog. Facilities were all very clean and the staff very helpful and friendly. Would definitely consider going back.

Lovely

A perfect weekend and a great site!

Beautifull campsite

A beautiful view campsite with friendly and helpful staff! Very clean toilet/ wash facilities. A must campsite to visit if you are looking for the peace and quiet from the city life. I will definitely be returning in the future! Keep up the good work team!

Beautiful stay with all the amenities

Hidden gem near Caenarfon. Beautiful facilities. Everything you need. Loved being able to feed the donkeys and sheep were feeding in the campsite. Woke up to beautiful mountains. Definitely would recommend. About 10-12 drive to town center. Staff were super kind and friendly.

Great relaxed stay

We had a fabulous relaxed stay, beautiful scenery. Very friendly owners. Lovely clean facilities. Not sure if they are aware, but at night we noticed people use the toilet cubicle and felt that there was not enough frosting on the window. But overall a lovely site close to the local pub, shops and lots of outdoor activities.

Nice place to stay

We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again. It's nice to see all the farm animals, which don't affect your stay, and there are lovely views around the site. If you walk up the mountains a little bit you can see the bay and watch the sunset. The showers were nice and hot, utility area nice and clean with washers and dryers to use if you need them. There is a small shop where you can buy a few essentials.

Short family getaway

Amazing views, quiet, excellent facilities and really helpful friendly staff.

Great campsite

Excellent location. Lovely staff!

Great campsite

We had a wonderful time at the campsite. All facilities were lovely and super clean, with everything you needed and more (washing machine and tumble dryers!). Staff very helpful and friendly, and knowledgeable of local area. The site is in a great location and at a farm, where you can feed donkeys and sheep. Very family friendly. There is great access to all walking routes up Snowdon and a beautiful lake nearby for swimming and paddleboarding, etc. Lovely pub nearby serving good well priced food. All in all a great campsite!

Loved it here!

We stayed in a pod, it was basic and had 2 plug sockets, light and heater (we didn't use the heater). The campsite was clean with a very basic shop onsite. The people working there were friendly and the donkeys were fun to watch. The little play park was good. We walked to Moel Eilio with our 5yr old, from the campsite. We loved the area, so so pretty. You will need to be able to drive. I would definitely recommend this little campsite!

Discovered a gem

A gem, beautiful site, close to a lot of activities, from horse riding, visiting castles, exploring Anglesey, walks and zip world. Staff super friendly, site facilities great… Will be back.

Lovely little campsite

Had a lovely stay here. The staff were really helpful and friendly, the amenities were enough, but could maybe do with some more showers. The donkeys were lovely, our children loved feeding them and the play park was a hit with our youngest. The downside for us was it got quite noisy in the evenings, with kids running around the tents and playing football right up to 11 pm. Beautiful mountain views and a good base for hiking. It was pretty cold and wet there at times though, especially at night so take warm clothes and sensible shoes!

Site's response

Thank you for your feedback. We do walk around the camp site a number of times in the evenings and we promote good neighbourliness at all times.

Lovely stay

Great site and position. Had a lovely stay. Would highly recommend it.
