  • Friendly family-run Llŷn Peninsula site five minutes' drive from Nefyn
  • Tŷ Coch Inn 10 minutes' drive; 20 minutes to Pwllheli
  • Bar and play area on site, plus accessible bathrooms
There’s a real history at Parc Gwynus, a friendly Llŷn Peninsula site about five minutes’ drive from Nefyn. So much so, in fact, that you can still see visible remnants of a Bronze Age settlement here as well as a farmhouse that dates back to the mid-17th century. The family that now run the site also have quite the history – they’ve been here since 1936, passing the property down through the generations to the current owners. And you can see why they’d choose to settle in this peaceful spot and not leave: it’s surrounded by green views and looks out towards the Irish Sea in the background too. You can get to the village easily enough for a shop or a meal, and there are lots of great beaches, walks and historic attractions close by as well. And did you notice the views towards Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park? It’s about a half-hour drive away and packed with wonderful outdoor activities. The famed Tŷ Coch Inn, right on the beach, is about 10 minutes’ drive from here – but if you don’t fancy going that far for a drink it’s handy to know the site has its own little bar, serving up a range of drinks (including Welsh beers and spirits) and snacks. Other facilities on site include a play area, a launderette, a chemical disposal point and bathrooms with wheelchair-accessible facilities. It’s a pretty laidback place here, so feel free to bring your kids, dogs and pals along – along with all the bits you’ll need for campfire or barbecue evenings.

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its quiet location, friendly owners, and good value. Families appreciate the farm animals and play area. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are generally found to be clean. Some guests noted issues with the tent field's slope and the availability and cleanliness of certain toilet blocks. The on-site bar's opening times have caused disappointment for some visitors. Driving is recommended for accessing local amenities.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Friendly owners' nice little bar area with good choice and close links to all the main towns beaches.
Big enough park and reasonably priced

Disliked Need more signs up on the roads to identify entrance to park.
Kids who live on the park were bit noisy and kicking footballs n screaming on a trampoline all the time
Could do with another toilet shower block

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We will take your recommendation on board and have additional signs put up.

We don't have anyone living on site, but can appreciate that the park can get loud at times if we have many children on site, particularly on weekends.

 Paula G. 8 reviews

Electric optional grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked How peaceful the camp was, stayed Friday - Sunday on the field with the play area, The toilets on there are not as clean as the ones with the shower’s near the bar area though … woke up at 1am with the dog and could hear the bar area ,so glad we were at the other side of that as it was quiet noisy,owners seemed lovely and friendly

Disliked The small toilet block as mentioned before,didn’t try the laundry room .

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We're glad you enjoyed your stay, We are only a short drive (10minutes from Nefyn) where there is a local produce Spar or Llithfaen (under 5 minutes) has a small corner shop with a good supplies.

We close our bar at 10 pm, sorry if there was a loud group when you were with us, we were not made aware.

All nice and clean, quiet site…

Local attractions

To the beach first? The Llŷn Peninsula has several excellent options to choose from, with Nefyn (five minutes’ drive) being your closest – a lovely little spot with sandy areas, rockpools and stunning views across the bay to the mountains beyond. Pwllheli (20 minutes) and Abersoch (25 minutes) are both top choices for family outings, with soft sand, watersports activities and places to eat and drink nearby. Meanwhile, surfers should take their boards to the big waves of Porth Neigwl (35 minutes) while those in search of a scenic pint head to the ever-popular Tŷ Coch Inn (10 minutes). For more ways to fill your days, try the watersports and other activities at Glasfryn Parc (15 minutes), scream along the world’s fastest zipline at Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (45 minutes) or take it easy with gentle strolls around the castles in Criccieth (25 minutes) and Caernarfon (half an hour).
