  • Excellent base for touring north Wales, three miles from St Asaph
  • Rural site a mile from the A55 and 15 minutes' drive from beaches
  • Hot showers, firepits and snack bar on site
They’re keen on the idea of a serene stay for all guests at Corn Bwch, a rural Denbighshire site surrounded by gorgeous scenery three miles from St Asaph. To make sure that peaceful break isn’t just a pipe dream, the team here implement a no-music policy, don’t accommodate large groups and encourage everyone to be kind to their neighbours with ‘quiet time’ after 11pm. No need to panic if you’ve got kids that aren’t of the particularly peaceful sort though – the site has a sizeable separate field where they can run about, make noise and play games of football without guy rope trip hazards. Barbecues and campfires are all part of the experience here, of course; the team help such proceedings along by hiring out firepits, selling firewood and providing picnic tables to serve up on. Too bleary-eyed to cope with breakfast prep? Make your way to the catering van for bargain bacon rolls and hot drinks; it’s also open on some evenings for burgers, chips, soup and the like. Easy access to food isn’t the only nod to comfort at this friendly site: hot showers are also available, and there’s a well-equipped communal shelter with a fridge-freezer, washing-up facilities and plenty of power points for gadget charging/hairdryer wielding/airbed pumping. Getting out’s a cinch from this handy location – Anglesey, the north coast beaches and Snowdonia National Park are all easily doable, as the A55 North Wales Expressway is a mere mile away.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (two person)

Liked: Beautiful, peaceful site with spacious pitches. The owners were lovely and the on site catering van was a plus for grabbing a drink or the days you don’t feel like cooking breakfast. Noise was very limited and all the other campers were really friendly and helpful. Location is great with easy access to the coast, close to a nice local village

Disliked: Only downside was the facilities were a little bit dirty on some days but those available were more than adequate for our needs over the two night spent

Non-electric grass tent pitch (two person)

Liked: Excellent flat site, and plenty of space. Loved the picnic bench on our pitch too. Very quiet and peaceful, had a lovely stay. Snack van morning and evening is a great addition, as is the children's play area and football goals, that are well away from the pitch area. We really appreciated the communal fridge & freezer, and made use of the charging points too. Lots of little extras not found very often.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike. The shower water splashed out of the tray and the floor got soaked, so a duck board would have been appreciated to aid dressing, but that's a minor niggle.

Liked: This is the second time I’ve stayed here. I’m a single dad with a 6 year old boy. This campsite is safe, remote, quiet (due to the no music policy) and clean. Facilities are good, nice clean showers and toilets. Places to wash up and power points to charge phones etc. they have 2 fridges you can use and you can hire fire pits very cheaply and buy the wood on site without any stupid mark ups (paid £6 for a bag of logs). They also have a burger van serving food in the morning and evening. The couple who run it are lovely and all of the people who I’ve come across (mainly young families and older couples) have been lovely too. Location is great, close to Rhyll for the arcades and rides (I wouldn’t live there but ok for a day trip and about 30 minutes to Llandudno. Shops are about 10 minutes away on a small retail park with plenty of take out food options available. Will be returning again for sure.

Disliked: Nothing.

Local attractions

You’ll be wanting to swing by St Asaph at some point – for supplies, for eats and drinks in the restaurants and bars, for river walks, for visits to the cathedral and/or for active times at the leisure centre, tennis courts and bowling green. Fishing types can pick up permits in town too before heading out to try their luck with the trout and salmon that swim in the Elwy and Clwyd rivers. Sunny day? The beaches of Rhyl, Prestatyn and Towyn are within a 15-20 minute drive, and Llandudno’s a half-hour away. Not so much? Head out to see sea beasties at the SeaQuarium (15 minutes’ drive) or land-dwelling ones at Welsh Mountain Zoo (20 minutes), or take off to the museums and shops of Chester (40 minutes) or Liverpool (an hour). Active types have plenty of options for walks in the Snowdonia National Park (40 minutes) or along the coast path in Anglesey, having stopped for obligatory pics of the nation’s longest station name in Llanfairpwllgwyngyll (40 minutes), of course. Golfers can play a round at the 18-hole courses at Rhuddlan, Abergele and Denbigh (all within a 10-minute drive).
