  • Peaceful and green Mid Wales site on the banks of the River Dyfi
  • Dyfi Osprey Project 20 minutes’ drive; Dolgellau 25 minutes
  • Easy access from the A470; pub, shop and café 10 minutes' walk
Countryside views and convenient access all in one location? Parc Bryndyfi makes a fantastic base for a Mid Wales break – this lush green oasis of a site is a proper rural place to stay, surrounded by trees and with the River Dyfi running down one side. The convenient access comes in the form of the A470, one of the main roads running through this part of the world. It’s just outside the site, making your ins and outs nice and simple, and making it easy to get out for day trips to Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park or over to the coast. For even more on the convenience front, the village of Cemmaes is about 10 minutes’ walk away, with a traditional pub (serving food as well as drinks) and an award-winning village shop/café. For more shopping and eating, head to Machynlleth, 15 minutes’ drive away. The setup at this site is fairly simple, but guests have access to smart bathroom facilities and an indoor washing-up/kitchen area. Dogs are welcome, and there’s plenty of space for them and the kids to have a good run about.

What customers say

Lovely, clean riverside campsite with great facilities. Friendly manager Chris gets top marks. Good pitches, handy power/water. Great for local sights & watching planes. Can get busy, and the walk to the village isn't ideal.

Liked Well kept and clean. From our pitch we had a lovely view of the river and the sheep. All facilities are clean, and the bathrooms were spacious. For campers like me who hate having to get changed in a wet room the bathrooms are spacious and you can get changed easily with no worry. We both had full bars of 4G. Chris the site manager was so welcoming and kind and sent me a text to let me know we could ask any questions about the local area and if we ever needed assistance. We had no idea that the this campsite or area was near the Mach loop so we saw a lot jets and other flying air crafts from our van and it was a lovely surprise. We met some lovely campers who informed us of a hill to go see them better but it does get busy after 10am (unfortunately cannot remember the name) and that there is a pub about a 10 minute walk from the campsite. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

Liked What a lovely and welcoming site, with beautiful mountain and river views and clean modern pitches, toilet/shower and dishwashing facilities. Chris the site manager was very helpful - thank you🤗 The location, right on the Mach loop, and on the edge of the Snowdonian Park, along with night star gazing was perfect. We had a lovely relaxing stay. We will definitely be back. Thank You 🤗

Liked Size of the pitch
Pitch was level
Location was quiet and peaceful
Wash rooms and showers were immaculate
Staff and owner very friendly

Disliked This is not a dislike just a couple of small points .
The showers need to be a bit hotter and secondly the grass on the pitches was far to long.

Local attractions

You might be familiar with the Dyfi Osprey Project (20 minutes’ drive) from their live streaming platforms or from BBC’s Springwatch, but a visit to its Welsh headquarters makes it possible to admire these fabulous birds of prey in the flesh – either from the observatory tower or the boardwalks crossing the reserve. Corris (20 minutes) is a small village that packs a mighty punch with sights like King Arthur’s Labyrinth, an underground attraction where you come face to face with Welsh history and myths – from dragons and giants, to King Arthur and assorted knights. At Corris Mine Explorers, you go through subterranean tunnels to learn about the local history of slate mining. Head to Dolgellau (25 minutes) to experience splendid Eryri landscapes. Hiking trails include the popular Torrent Walk (Llwybr Clywedog), which snakes among woodland to a fern- and moss-covered ravine inhabited by otters and bats; and Precipice Walk (Llwybr Cynwch), which circles Llyn Cynwch reservoir.
