This is our pitch and motorhome on maes carafanau hendy site.

Rural site on a dairy farm 20 minutes' walk from Caernarfon
Half an hour from Snowdonia, Anglesey and the Llŷn Peninsula
Well-kept amenities including an accessible wetroom

Snowdonia National Park, Anglesey’s beaches, the lovely Llŷn Peninsula… if you fancy taking in lots of the local faves on your north-west Wales hols, take a look at handily placed Maes Carafanau Hendy Caravan Park. From this relaxed rural spot on a working dairy farm it’s around half an hour by car to all of the above, and a 20-minute stroll to historic Caernarfon, famed for its UNESCO-listed castle but also a popular place for poking about in the town’s independent shops and cafés. The Welsh Highland Railway and the Lôn Eifion cycle path pass by the site too, giving guests easy access to all sorts of ways to roam. Those in search of heaps of on-site activities will have to look elsewhere, as the Joneses have chosen to keep their place as peaceful as poss, focusing on doing the essential amenities to top standards. The large pitches have space to spread about a bit with access to electrical hookups and drinking water, and the top-notch bathroom facilities have hot showers, an accessible wetroom… and hairdryers for those days when the Welsh weather has messed with your mop.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: The grounds are well maintained with fresh water and drainage for each plot. You can spend your days doing as little or as much as you want, sit and watch the tractors, walk to the town of Caernarfon via a foot path along side the railway track, which has a lovely steam engine running along it. Visit the castle, try the local cafes and cake shops.

The amenities at the site are immaculate, family run working farm. The family are really friendly and helpful with things to do and places to see.
We had some beautiful weather over the bank holiday weekend.

Very reasonably priced site, will definatley be back again for another visit.

Disliked: Nothing.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Great location with fantastic views right across the Welsh mountains.
The campsite was very well maintained and the toilet/shower block appeared to be brand new and kept spotlessly clean.
The warden was very friendly and helpful.
Campsite is close to town with a 20/30 min walk along the steam railway footpath.
Plenty of things to do locally including the magnificent castle or a trip on the Welsh highlands railway

Local attractions

Start by taking a stroll into Caernarfon to see the mighty waterfront castle, a huge and well-preserved place with lots to see and plenty of puzzles and activities for the tiddlers; it’s worth having a look around the Royal Welch Fusiliers Regimental Museum while you’re here too. The Welsh Highland Railway runs steam train rides from Caernarfon: grab a spot at the station to watch them depart or get all aboard for the 25-mile ride through the mountains to Porthmadog. If you prefer to travel under your own steam, there’s easy access to the scenic 12-mile Lôn Eifion cycle path, a hard-surfaced path that skirts the edge of Snowdonia for some great views and village visits. For days by the seaside, cross the Menai Suspension Bridge to Anglesey – there are some lovely beaches on the island (Traeth Cymyran, 40 minutes away, is perhaps the most popular) – and the excellent Anglesey Sea Zoo, home to a seahorse breeding programme and the Lobster Hatchery of Wales. Head south instead and it’s around a half-hour drive to Pwlheli on the Llŷn Peninsula, for more splendid beaches as well as wildlife-watching boat trips.
