VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesJun 2025

Overall we have a lovely 2 night stay. Good sized pitch. Toilets were clean, showers clean and easy enough to use. Only suggestion would be to have extra washing up facilities (extra sink maybe) as if it was very busy, it might be an issue. Location not 5 star just because it's a stony beach. Beautiful mountain views. Nice atmosphere.

Good weather

Things to do on site and in the Tal-Y-Bont area

Right on the doorstep is Tal-y-bont Beach, just a five minute walk away. This long, sandy beach is great for a peaceful walk, paddling in the sea, or simply unwinding with a book.

The seaside town of Barmouth is within a ten minute drive. Home to an expansive sandy beach, traditional fish and chips, and colourful shops, it's great for local amenities. You can take a stroll across Barmouth Bridge, enjoy an ice cream on the promenade, or hop on a boat trip to see the coast from the water.

For some local history, Castell Harlech is 15 minutes away. This mighty stone castle stands on a hill with views across the sea and Snowdonia. You can walk the castle walls, learn about battles long ago, and see why this place is part of a World Heritage Site.
