Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: It was extremely peaceful with beautiful views. Perfect for watching the sunset. We weren’t bothered once either.

Disliked: - the big dogs would bark every time you went to the toilet area, it made me jump every time and I was worried they would wake the other campers up. - it was quite late when we got there due to working and traffic, so we were putting are tent up when it was nearly dark. Because it was dark, we missed the sign near the gate saying do not pitch up until you’ve rung to say you’re there (apologies that we missed this) especially as we’re getting into the darker months, it might be worth adding a note to the actual bookings or putting a bigger sign so people don’t miss this again as I didn’t spot it until the next day and was worrying about it.

Unpowered grass motorhome site

Liked: I really lovely quite site. Lots of animals around to see and beautiful views. A lovely warm shower and the owner made sure we were able to park both our vans together despite only one of us having an electric hook up. There was a really lovely atmosphere on site as well which was in no way crowded.

Disliked: The locks on the toilets were a little difficult to lock and unlock.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: What a fantastic weekend we've just had at Glan Y Gors! 1. The site was incredibly clean, tidy and well looked after. 2. Very quiet, there weren't many people on the site whilst we were there but everyone was respectful of the rules. 3. Toilets were cleaned regularly and the shower was nice and hot. 4. Amazing sunsets and star gazing. 5. The kids loved the animals that were around the site. Overall it's a basic but clean and comfortable site with friendly owners.

Disliked: There was no fire wood to purchase on site, this is usually a rule with sites where fires are allowed so not a negative but maybe just state on the website that we need to bring our own. It wasn't an issue so much as we just went out and purchased some but we didn't have any for our first night.

Unpowered grass motorhome site

Liked: We stayed in our van at Glan Y Gors for a night and really loved the site. We were met on arrival and the owner (can't remember your name, sorry!) was super helpful and welcoming. There were a few other couples, some young families and a couple of groups of friends, and it felt like a really friendly, chilled site. It was also lovely to see the animals (although one of the goats clearly didn't like me, but I did make friends with one of the cats) and the views were amazing. We got an incredible sunset, which was an added bonus. Overall, really lovely site and will definitely be back.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Quiet, organised campsite with fantastic views and all the basic facilities you need. Great to have the animals around for the kids to see.

Disliked: Showers worked well but the cubicles are a little confined. Very manageable unless you are a little bigger. Honestly, this was the only negative.

A good site for the money, hosts are lovely, maintained well

Local attractions

Pretty Llangernyw (five minutes’ drive) has an unusual whitewashed church and is well-known for the (circa) 5,000-year-old yew tree in the graveyard. Close by is the Sir Henry Jones Museum, laid out with period rooms and a shoe-maker’s workshop in the white-washed birthplace of the famous Welsh philosopher. Fancy ticking a few major attractions off the bucket list? Conwy Castle (25 minutes) is open for tours of the former royal apartments, while there are bracing walks and Irish Sea panoramas up the Great Orme in Llandudno (half an hour). Glittering sands await on the expansive Colwyn Bay Beach (15 minutes), and there are gorgeous, colourful (especially in spring and autumn) walks to be had at National Trust-owned Bodnant Garden (20 minutes). And of course, the Snowdonia National Park (half an hour) is the scenic backdrop to many, many mountain hiking and biking adventures, and you can explore deep underground at the National Slate Museum (an hour) or try to get your balance on the consistent surfing breaks at Surf Snowdonia (half an hour). Adrenaline-seekers can also zoom down high wires at Zip World Fforest (25 minutes).
