Spectacularly scenic riverside park in the Tanat Valley
Hikes directly from the site and Lake Bala 13 miles away
Two dog-friendly pubs within walking distance

Cor. Have a look at this site’s setting: parked alongside the Tanat river and surrounded by peaks in the spectacularly scenic Tanat Valley in mid Wales’ Berwyn Mountains, it’s right near the pretty village of Llangynog, where the Tanat and Eirth rivers meet. And there’s more: right on the edge of Snowdonia National Park, Henstent Park’s surrounds are not only scenic but they're also handily set for jaunts to the market towns of Welshpool and Oswestry, plus the Vyrnwy and Bala lakes. The smashing views are 360 here – at every turn you’ll see grass, trees and mountains – and as the site’s bordered by a river, there’s the option to have a go at fishing nearby. This is a smashing site for walkers too: several hiking trails lead directly from the site and it’s a three-hour trek (or a 20-minute drive) up to Wales’ highest waterfall, Pistyll Rhaeadr. A gated dog walk runs alongside the riverbank (and one dog-friendly pub is within easy walking distance). The bathroom block – with free hot showers – has been hailed by previous guests as immaculate and spotless.

This is a beautiful, peaceful campsite in a stunning location, praised for its immaculate facilities, friendly and helpful owners, and picturesque riverside pitches with mountain views. Guests highlight the cleanliness of the showers and toilets, and the site's excellent maintenance. It's considered an ideal base for outdoor activities, with a local pub within walking distance.

Electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked Absolutely loved this place. A very friendly welcome and a nice intimate pitch where only 5 or 6 tents were down by the beautiful river. Stunning views and a very nice peaceful spot to spend a few days and chill.
The washrooms were immaculate and although there were not that many showers it was not a problem as there are only a few campers (in tents) on the site so for us everything was perfect-Thank you!

Disliked Nothing at all

Electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked Beautiful site, the management were friendly and helpful, the toilet/shower facilities were well built and really clean. The camping dell felt like a secure spot and it was amazing to open the tent in the morning and look at the stream and mountains. So peaceful and we will definitely be back.

Disliked The WiFi wasn’t great but I didn’t go camping to sit on my phone so wasn’t really an issue

Local attractions

Several walks lead directly from the site, and you can lace up your boots, pack up a picnic and hike the eight miles up to Wales’ highest waterfall, Pistyll Rhaeadr if you’re feeling particularly energised. Other outdoorsy pursuits within easy reach include horse riding, fishing and cycling… And as the site is right near Llangynog village, you’re also well placed for challenging and spectacularly scenic bike rides around the Milltir Cerrig mountain pass along the B4391, which runs between Llan Ffestiniog and Llanfyllin. If you fancy checking out the area’s lakes, the route over the mountain to Bala – 90 minutes’ bike ride or 25 minutes by car – is a highly scenic one, and at the end you’ll be greeted by lots of watery sports such as canoeing, windsurfing and whitewater rafting, or climbing, hiking, cycling, abseiling, archery and campcraft if you’d prefer to stay dry. Lake Vwrnwy is an easy half hour away.
