  • Small north Wales touring park for CAMC members only
  • Bodnant Garden and Betws-y-Coed 15 minutes' drive away
  • Adults-only site with secure dog exercise field and dog bath
Small, peaceful, adults-only, dog-friendly… if these words are ticking all the boxes on your wishlist and you’re a member of the Caravan and Motorhome Club, there’s good news for you at Tan Y Ffordd Certificated Location. This north Wales site covers all the bases mentioned above, and its handful of pitches are available to CAMC members only. Each of the pitches is level and fully serviced, with a large hardstanding area and a grass area, providing plenty of privacy and space to set up an awning or put your table and chairs out. Facilities at this friendly site have been nicely thought out by owners Karen and Al, who’ve installed a guest kitchen area, a chemical disposal point and a bathroom block with toilets and showers. Guests can take a stroll through the site’s landscaped gardens and also have access to an adjoining paddock with picnic tables and barbecues for alfresco meals and drinks. Dogs are welcome at this site – and that does indeed mean welcome, not merely tolerated. They’ll have a lovely two-acre fully secure dog field to run around in, and a dog bath is provided too, with temperature-controlled water to make the cleaning-up process as painless as possible. Life on site moves at a fairly slow pace, with lots of birds to spot and some woods to wander in. In contrast, the surrounding area provides plenty of action, whether you’re more inclined to go hiking and zooming down zipwires or prefer to potter around attractive gardens and take seaside walks. The area also has plenty of local country pubs – the closest being in Llangernyw, five minutes’ drive away and also home to the oldest tree in the UK.

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its peaceful location, stunning views, and immaculate, well-maintained grounds and facilities. Visitors highlight the friendly and attentive hosts, fully serviced pitches, and excellent dog-friendly amenities, including a large secure field and dog shower. While a few mentioned small shower rooms and occasional Wi-Fi issues, these were generally outweighed by the overwhelmingly positive experiences. The site is considered ideal for exploring North Wales.

Liked This touring park is great for visiting so many surrounding locations of North Wales, yet has a remote feel about it offering peace and quiet. We have had a lovely week and found it to be such a relaxed place to return to after a busy day. Pitches and facilities are all very well maintained, very clean and tidy, set in lovely grounds. Hosts were perfect, friendly and welcoming. Thankyou for a lovely stay (P&B)

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (large, members only)

Liked - Very neat and well thought out site.
- Fully serviced and hard standing pitches.
- A shower that had the most hooks and shelving I’ve ever seen - a very useable space.
- A ‘dog spa’ that we made the most of and we washed our two dogs.
- An amazing dog paddock. Our rescue ex-street dog can’t be let off normally, her recall is too unreliable, but we made the most of the paddock and it was wonderful to see her enjoying running about.
- Great views and beautiful area.
- WiFi included
- Warm welcome
- Immaculate facilities, including the bins!
- BBQ and picnic bench area
- Lovely planting and gardens
- Peaceful location with only the odd tractor passing by

Disliked Nothing. We only stayed one night and are very keen to return.

From the manager: Hi Alison and Stephen, lovely to receive your wonderful review, thank you. Glad to know your two beautiful dogs had a lovely time and your nervous dog had a pleasurable experience in the park and the dog spa.

We keep the site including the bin store clean at all times to ensure our guests feel comfortable using our facilities. We're grateful everyone appreciates what we do. Please come back again anytime.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (large, members only)

Liked Whats a superb site. Clean, modern and felt exclusive. Our dog loved the huge field. Pitches are large, flat and fully serviced. Nice little woodland too. Starlink is available and coverage was good for us. Karen and Al (and Roy) were superb hosts, welcoming us on arrival and sharing plenty of local know-how. Genuinely gutted to leave and we will return when we venture to North Wales again.

Disliked Nothing. Absolutely spot-on.

From the manager: So lovely to have you stay with us Steven and Janine. Would like to express our thanks for a great review and the special little present you left in the kitchen!!!. We are thrilled to hear you had a lovely holiday and your stunning lab enjoyed the dog park and spa. See you all at Christmas when we have the park looking "magical" "festive" and "enchanting".

Fantastic site should be CL of the year 2026

Sean C. 1 review

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (large, members only)

Liked Site was clean, tidy and extremely well kept. Facilities were spotless.
Extras like the dog bath and large dog walking area were lovely free extras.
One of the best sites we have stayed on and we have stayed on a lot. Personal welcome by the owners was a lovely touch.

Disliked Nothing to dislike at all.

From the manager: Hi Sean and Karen, great review thank you so much. It's a pleasure to keep the park clean and tidy when it's appreciated so much. Our dog's are part of the family and are on their holidays too. What dog doesn't love a 2 acre secure short grass play area and a temperature regulated shower too. We'd love to see you all back again soon.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (large, members only)

Liked The best CL site we have ever stayed on. The hosts, Karen and Al, have thought of everything and nothing is too much trouble for them. The site is immaculate; beautifully landscaped grounds with a fully enclosed and secure field for our dog to romp around in. The facilities are spotless - there is absolutely nothing to fault! The site is in a great location to visit many of the beautiful places on your doorstep and the nearby pub, The Old Stag, serves fabulous food. There's plenty of wildlife to see and hear, with the adjoining wood to wander round. We visited Bodnant Gardens, Zip World, Swallow Falls and Betws y Coed, Llandudno and The Great Orme, taking in lots of lovely villages along the way. We will definitely return to this beautiful site.

Disliked Nothing at all.

Liked This truly is a hidden gem in the hills above Llanrwst and close to Abergele.
The hosts, Karen and Al couldn't have been more welcoming. The site is perfect to explore Snowdonia (ebikes are preferable if you aim to explore on two wheels)
The pitches are large and all facilities spotlessly clean.
There is nothing negative to say about this site and will be at the top of our list for a return trip. Wonderful!
