  • 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 catering van on site
They’re keen on the idea of a peaceful stay for all guests at Corn Bwch, a rural Denbighshire site surrounded by gorgeous scenery, three miles from St Asaph. To make sure that your 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 a number of picnic tables to serve up on. Too bleary-eyed to cope with breakfast prep? Make your way to the catering van for hot drinks and food; it’s also open for breakfast and on some evenings during the peak season. 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 Eryri (Snowdonia National Park) are all easily doable, as the A55 North Wales Expressway is a mere mile away.

Bell tent

Liked We really enjoyed our stay at corn bwch.
We had the bell tent and it was very luxurious, tidy and just beautiful.
It was so homely, cosy and extremely comfy! Had the best night sleeps while here.
Showers and toilets were very clean.
The cabin that came with the bell tent just topped everything off! It was perfect had everything you could imagine.
You literally don't need to bring anything, expect your personal items as it really does has everything you could need.
Even your own BBQ outside. Just really pleasant experience.
Our children 4&7 absolutely loved it too!
There is a small park and a field with goals.

Camping pod

Liked Absolutely fantastic little campsite, extremely quiet and well maintained, it felt very secluded yet it was a short drive to plenty amenities. The camping pod was beautiful and very well thought out with every detail of things you may need or want included. Perfect for our 2 night motorbike camping trip. We’ll definitely be using this site again.

Disliked Having to go home.

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 wild animals 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).
