  • Quiet dog-friendly north-west Anglesey site with sea views
  • Anglesey Coast Path 10 minutes' walk; Church Bay beach 20 minutes
  • Excellent spot for birdwatching, stargazing and sunset barbecues
After a secluded stay on Anglesey? Take a peek at peaceful Pengraig Campsite. Up at the isle’s most north-western point near Church Bay, it’s about as far as you can get from the mainland without actually ditching into the sea. With that far-flung setting comes a stunning sea view – one that can be gawped at for many hours from the comfort of your pitch (a recommended activity around sunset, with a drink in one hand and a barbecue stoking implement in the other). See the sea from a different angle on the Anglesey Coast Path (within 10 minutes' walk of the site) or while strolling on the sands of one of the local beaches. The waves aren’t the only gazing material around here – turn your back on the coast for scenic views of Mynydd Y Garn hill, or bring binoculars for a bit of birdwatching. Once darkness falls, direct your gaze upwards; the lack of light pollution means the stars can often put on a glittering show here. This isn’t a place for folks seeking heaps of facilities and entertainment; the emphasis is very much on peace and nature. Low-key amenities include a drinking water supply, a chemical disposal point and a toilet block (with basins and proper flushing loos). If you want to venture out in search of things to eat, a café and pub are five minutes’ drive away (or around 20 minutes' walk away) in Church Bay, and a little supermarket is 15 minutes away in Cemaes.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked Spectacular views.. this is back to basics camping at its finest. If you prefer the convenience of an allocated pitch, being close to the facilities, with beautiful views in a more sheltered, polished spot, then the main field is the one to choose. However for us the more rugged overflow field was one of the most spectacular camping spots that we have ever stayed at, we enjoyed 3 wonderful days.. the direct views out to sea were incredible, the peace, the space, the sunsets, the sunrises... and the amazing walking in both directions along the stunning coast path.. just perfect..

Liked Loved it here, superb views, magnificent sunsets, right above a little beach and viewpoint. Even luckier for us it wasn’t very busy during our stay, I like peace and quiet so that was great. Owner came to say hello and was lovely. Toilets were decent too, pretty clean. I will definitely stay again and would recommend to others.

Disliked Just a bit windy but what do you expect on the top of a sea cliff haha, wouldn’t change anything about the site.

Liked Great location with stunning views and nice walks along the cliffs and amazing night view of Holyhead, lots of toilets available, and sinks.

Disliked Just a minor thing if you are coming by motercycle the overflow field is quite hard to move around on, manageable but when wet, windy and dark it can be a challenge.

Recommend to friends Visit again

A great place to stay for relaxation and peace and quiet.

Liked Everything.
Personal touch from farmer David to check all was ok. Even offered us a lift to the local pub.
Sheltered mini valley from the wind. Don’t use the overflow field. It’s brutal for the wind.

Local attractions

All visitors to Anglesey should angle for as much coastal time as possible. That may well include lengthy rambles on the Anglesey Coast Path (which passes close to Pengraig) and/or as many hours as you can spare for beach time. Take a 20-minute stroll to rocky Ynys y Fydlyn beach or the (often almost empty) sands of Church Bay. Stick around in Church Bay to eat at the pub or café, or for a glance into the past at the Swtan Heritage Museum, then drive for 25 minutes or so to Amlwch, the northernmost town in all of Wales. It may look rather sleepy now but back in the day (the late 1800s) around 10,000 people gathered here around the world’s largest copper mine. Get an idea of what the place was like back then at the town’s Copper Kingdom Centre, then take a colourful walk round the old mine at Parys Mountain. After you’ve knocked around the north for a bit, head south for visits to Beaumaris Castle (45 minutes) and Ynys Llanddwyn (50 minutes), the island dedicated to the Welsh patron saint of lovers. A photo stop by the sign for the UK’s longest town name is a must, too. Deep breath and all together now… Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch (35 minutes).
