  • Peaceful touring park 10 minutes' walk from central Blaenau Ffestiniog
  • Portmeirion, Harlech Castle and Snowdon within a half-hour drive
  • A 20-minute walk from Zip World Llechwedd's zipwire and Bounce Below
To some it’s famed for its historic steam trains and slate caverns; to others it’s a buzzing hive of outdoorsy activities. But whatever brings you to Blaenau Ffestiniog, it's a good bet to bag a berth at Quarry View Touring Park. This quiet touring park has been set up with life’s essentials in mind: a picnic area provides a place for open-air eats, and there’s a washing-up area, chemical disposal point and a waste area with recycling bins. Likewise, the shower blocks have been thoughtfully kitted out: benches and hooks save your clobber from damp patches and shaver points and a hairdryer will keep you looking dapper. And although there's no wifi on site, the presence of three mobile phone masts nearby means that most guests should be able to access 4G services. Any amenities that aren’t on site are most likely available nearby: it takes 10 minutes or so to walk into town for shops, a cinema, pubs and takeaways or to board a train from the station (regular services run from here to Llandudno and Betws-y-Coed as well as the heritage line to Porthmadog). Also within walking distance are the adrenaline activities at Zip World Llechwedd, including the Titan zipwire and Bounce Below, both set up in repurposed slate caverns. Looking to explore further afield? An excellent idea – this nifty location is under half an hour’s drive from Portmeirion, Harlech Castle and Snowdonia National Park.

What customers say

This adults-only site offers level, well-maintained pitches in a unique quarry setting. Visitors consistently praise the immaculate, modern toilet and shower facilities. The owners are frequently described as friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Its proximity to local attractions like Zip World and the Ffestiniog Railway is a major draw. While the town itself is noted as run-down, the site's peaceful atmosphere and excellent amenities make it a highly recommended choice.

Electric gravel motorhome pitch (no awning)

Liked Water on pitch, fairly level, size of campsite ie quite small, service area. Good info available re locality and warm welcome from Janet.

Disliked Lights being turned off whilst getting changed after shower and being left in complete darkness. The signage asking people to turn lights off upon exit needs to be amended to check for others still in the washroom or motion sensor lights installed.

Electric gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked Facilities were spotless. Friendly owner greeted us on arrival. Very quiet site. Beautiful views.
Enjoyed the quarry walk with the dog.
I LOVED the 24/7 radio in the toilet block, I can sometimes get anxious going to the toilet block overnight but it was lovely to have the company of the radio.

Disliked Not really a dislike but just a FYI for future guests, the road into site is very steep.

Local attractions

Even if you’re not much of a train buff, it’s worth taking a trip on the Ffestiniog Railway – the steam-powered services take in some of Snowdonia’s most spectacular scenery as they wend their way down to the coast at Porthmadog. If you’ve got an appetite for more, connect here for the Welsh Highland Railway all the way up to Caernarfon. If you’d like to explore under your own steam, there are heaps of hikes in the surrounding Snowdonia National Park – Snowdon itself is just a few miles away, or you may prefer a quieter clamber up Crimpiau from Capel Curig or a circuit of Llyn Idwal from Ogwen Cottage for something a bit less leg-busting (both routes about half an hour's drive). The site is also a few minutes’ amble from the Antur Stiniog mountain bike trails, with an uplift service that’s been tipped as the country’s best. Not enough adrenaline yet? The site is also a 10-minute stroll from Titan ZipWorld (to fly along two kilometres of zipline) and the underground adventure park in an old slate cavern at Bounce Below. Calm that heart rate a little by heading coastwards for a trip to pretty Portmeirion or a wander around the castle and beach in Harlech – both are about half an hour away by car.
