Well maintained and secluded park with views of grassy fields
Less than five minutes’ drive to Valley and 10 minutes to Holyhead
Porth Trwyn beaches less than 15 minutes’ drive away

How does a peaceful hol in the very northern reaches of north Wales sound? If the answer’s an instant 'yes please', give Pencraig Campsite a go: it's in the Anglesey countryside on a smallholding next to a field full of ponies overlooking grassy green meadows. Pencraig Campsite has a good range of amenities, with modern toilets and showers plus a washing-up area. The sunset views are excellent from this site, creating a serene setting in which to stoke up the barbecue at the end of a day beachcombing around the lovely Isle of Anglesey. Shores within easy driving distance include Porth Trwyn and Church Bay (both 15 minutes); the latter has a café for filling up at as well as a small museum in an old thatched 17th-century cottage. For other eats, the local village of Valley is a five-minute drive from the site just off the island’s main coastal road with its pubs, takeaways, small shops and petrol station. A few bigger supermarkets are on the way to Holyhead less than 10 minutes’ drive away; come here for birdwatching too as it’s the gateway to scenic cliffside walks with the potential for puffin spotting at RSPB South Stack (20 minutes away). If you’ve brought a four-legged friend on the trip – as dogs are welcome at Pencraig Campsite – plenty of places for walkies are about, including around the colourful disused copper mine at Parys Mountain (half an hour away).

Handy to have a picnic bench. not all pitches have them.

We saw a beautiful sunset when the rain stopped.

The site was surrounded by fields with cows and horses.

The beach that is only a 10 minute drive away!

Only showing reviews for the last 30 months.

Friendly and very helpful owner. Suggested best area for choosing a hardstanding…

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Friendly and very helpful owner. Suggested best area for choosing a hardstanding with very strong winds forecast overnight.
Clean facilities. Easy to find if mobile / AI doesn't change spelling of campsite name! Make sure it is looking for PenCraig, not PenGraig, a campsite which is much further from Valley.

Disliked: Nothing.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Showers and Toilets were faultless and very clean. The pitch was good and well maintained

Disliked: The first night was horrible, they let a family group with ten children pitch up and for almost 10 hours solid they played football, kicking into people’s campers, tents and fire pits ! Not only dangerous but totally no respect for anyone else! They continued into the early hours of the morning screaming and talking , loud music and letting the kids run riot ! Never booking a non adults only campsite again

Jane H. Jun 2025

Electric grass pitch

Liked: We had a large sized pitch at the back of the field in the corner. The views were lovely across the fields.
The toilet & shower blocks are nice. They are clean. The showers have good water pressure and no annoying push buttons.
The lady owner we met was nice and helpful when we asked to book an extra night.
There is an industrial estate about 10 minutes drive in Holyhead. Here you have supermarkets and other shops.
There is a fish & chip shop, Chinese, pub and a few other facilities nearby in Valley. A quiet site which is ideal for us.
We definitely would return.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Brilliant little campsite with amazing shower facilities, and a short drive to lots of beautiful beaches, shops and pubs.

Disliked: Only criticism is that there is only one washing up sink, we were there over half term when the site was pretty full so we had to wait to use the washing up area almost every time. it's not bad when the weather is ok, but no one wants to be hanging around to wash up in the wind and rain!

Local attractions

Anglesey has numerous beaches to comb, including the quiet bay of Rhoscolyn (15 minutes' drive away) with calm, shallow water for paddling or kayaking and Traeth Llydan (20 minutes), a wide, sandy stretch of coastline. Llanddwyn Island is 45 minutes away – visit at low tide to reach it via the sand. For age-old history in between submerges in the sea, the Neolithic-era Barclodiad y Gawres burial chamber is 15 minutes’ drive away and the Bryn Celli Ddu Burial Chamber takes 25 minutes to reach for investigating Wales’ prehistoric history. Slightly more recent heritage can be had on tours of Beaumaris’ castle and old jail; the pretty seaside village is also tiptop for shopping in small independent boutiques and filling up in traditional pubs. Off Anglesey, about an hour and five minutes’ drive away, is the base of Wales’ biggest mountain, Snowdon. If your legs are feeling up to it, hike to the summit – or just take the train…
