  • Family-run site in a peaceful countryside location near Aberdaron
  • Well-maintained facilities and top spot for stargazing
  • Café serving breakfast, snacks and hot meals throughout the day
Set on the very tip of the National Trust-managed Llŷn Peninsula on the north Wales coast and overlooking Bardsey Island, Ty-newydd Farm is a fenced site a mile from the coast with heaps of space for kids as well as open fields aplenty in which to fly kites or get competitive at cricket. (Sinking down with a book, particularly while the kids are safely roaming free range, would be a highly decent option of choice too.) The family running this sheltered and long established farm and campsite are landscaping and developing it in an environmentally sympathetic manner to keep in manner with the scenic surrounds. It has ladies' and gents' toilets, two spacious showers, four shower units/rooms, a disabled-friendly shower and baby changing facilities. Two washing-up sinks with free unlimited hot and cold water are just outside the shower block; a water tap and waste water disposal point are halfway down the site along with a chemical toilet point. Ty-newydd Farm also has a well-stocked café serving breakfast, snacks and hot meals throughout the day; supplies can be sorted at Aberdaron village about a mile and a half away.

What customers say

This is a beautiful, peaceful campsite in a stunning remote location with sea views and easy access to coastal walks. Pitches are generally level and spacious. Facilities, including showers and toilets, are frequently described as clean and well-maintained. Staff are consistently praised for being friendly and helpful. The on-site cafe is popular, serving good food. Some visitors note a lack of phone signal and WiFi is payable. The cafe's evening opening hours could be extended.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Pitches were great, a good distance from one to the next.

Really quiet, scenic location. Facilities were in immaculate condition, had everything you’d need.

50p showers were well worth it, stayed on long enough to wash long hair! Take to 50ps just incase😆

Disliked Phone signal was dependent on where you were on the campsite but isn’t something i’d say was a dislike!

Liked A lovely, clean campsite, clean toilet and shower block and plenty of washing up sinks too. A lovely café onsite which served the most delicious breakfast. Beautiful views during the day and very peaceful and wonderful, clear starry skies at night.

Lucia M.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Spacious pitches, very quiet despite having a lot of people staying there (and children) and incredible location with views.

Toilets and showers were spotless, hot water available and easy access to dispose of waste and refill water tank.

We went down the road for a beautiful walk and views of Bardseay island.

Staff was friendly, it was super super windy and allowed us to move to a more secure place.

Disliked We were staying on the far end of the pitches and toilets/facilities are a bit far. Nothing too serious but be aware if you are staying in a tent or don't have a toilet. Also, and obviously not their fault, no reception or very low at least so if you rely on maps make sure you download it first.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Very peaceful with beautiful scenery. We went for a beautiful walk into the hills. Plenty of space on site and pitches were nicely spaced apart. Ground was level. I only used the toilet block so can't comment on all the facilities, but the toilet was clean, spacious and well stocked.

Local attractions

The lovely Llŷn Peninsula is a stellar spot for walking, birdwatching, rock fishing and wildlife watching as well as stargazing: Ty-newydd Farm is in a highly rural area with very little street lighting and no industry (that means very clean air too). The clear night skies around the farm and the peninsula have been lauded by astronomers as the clearest they've ever seen in the UK, so settle down here of an evening to spy planets, millions of stars and even the occasional flaring comet… Local walks are sorted directly from the site to Aberdaron via the Mynydd Mawr monument at the top of the headland – you could miss out the Mynydd Mawr part of the walk if you're doing it in the evening to take in the also stellar sunset sinking down over Bardsey Island. If you're off to Aberdaron, have a hunt for St Mary’s Well or Ffynnon Fair, the freshwater spring at the foot of the Mynydd Mawr cliffs. It's covered by sea water twice a day, but you wouldn't know that by tasting it: bring and fill a bottle or two to take back home. And as you're this close to the north Wales coast, days out at the local beaches should also be hunted down: have them at Aberdaron, Abersoch, Porth Neigwl, Pwllheli…
