  • 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.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Clean site, very quiet

Disliked Not very welcoming on arrival, felt like we were in front of a strict school mistress. Sent to an open field & pitch not very level., not a lot of shelter & a long walk to toilets, showers. Cold tap in dishwashing area did not switch off for a long time & had to pull plug out of sink to stop flooding over & therefore lost all soapy washing water so not ideal. Horrible weather did not help.

Good open pitch. Good clean facilities.…

Liked Absolutely lovely site showers and toilets were very good apart from the gents toilet but that was down to the disgusting men who can't clean up after they have made a mess. Toilet brushes were provided just no respect for the next user. CAFE was excellent. No phone signal at all.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Really friendly staff who went out of their way to find info for the Bardsey boat, although I didn't make it as it was full on the day I wanted to go and the following days it was cancelled due to weather warnings. Clean site, lovely cafe, quiet. Walking and nature all around. Although it was a grass pitch, a motor-homers nightmare I had no problem getting off the pitch after the mother of all thunderstorms and hours of torrential rain.

Disliked Not a dislike really but a total lack of internet/mobile phone coverage in the area, not the sites fault. You can use the sites own which not everyone will want to use.

Great site, stunning views, staff are nice and site is clean and tidy

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…
