- Lots of open space for kids to play
Get back to nature among spectacular surroundings with a stay at Gwynedd's Rhos Y Foel, in the middle of the Llŷn Peninsula a short drive from more lush landscapes at Snowdonia National Park.
Set with views towards the rocky peak of Moelypenmaen, Rhos Y Foel is a small and family-friendly site, with a wide swathe of open space on which the kids can let loose. Well-behaved dogs are welcome.
Rhos Y Foel is a level and almost completely flat site – no uncomfy bumpy groundsheet nights here – and has a facilities block with hot running water.
Barbecues and campfires in firepits are allowed: for supplies, the local village is Boduan and the shops and services of market town Pwllheli are a few miles away.
Open from 01/04/2021 to 04/10/2021

Too basic for us.Would not stay again.
From the manager...
We are sorry you didn't enjoy your stay, the road is narrow to the park but perfectly adequate to get even big caravans such as LMC's to site, the site layout is clearly shown in the drone photos on the sales page so I do feel it's a little harsh to complain about this after you arrived as we feel we provide all the information we can before booking. The toilets are basic but always kept clean and in working order. We are really sorry about the bins, you came to stay in the off season and the bin collection had dropped to every 2 weeks, we did request an additional collection to our contract but unfortunately they did not come till after the weekend. |

Local attractions
As you'll know if you've ever had the sense to go there, the Llŷn Peninsula is lovely land, with sea all around as it jabs 30 miles into the Irish Sea from north-west Wales's tip. Rhos Y Foel is in an excellent setting to get to the best of its hills and coast in the site surrounds, and to explore the mountains and other highlights of Snowdonia a short drive away.
Around the peninsula, have seaside days at resorts like Abersoch, Nefyn, Morfa Nefyn and Pwllheli, all just a few miles away, or get active with afternoons among the wakeboarding, bowling, quad biking, go karting and fishing of Glasfryn Parc nearby at Pwllheli; soft play, food, a farm shop and a bar are at this latter as well. Paintball is nearby if you want to take things up a notch.
Another top local option for families is the award-winning GreenWood Forest Park, where you can paddle among trees, make things work at the world's only people-powered rollercoaster, see a live show, meet the animals or try den building and archery. More animal meeting is at Dwyfor Rabbit Farm, or drive to the foot of Snowdonia for a more active family day out at Gypsy Wood.
The famed 18-hole Nefyn & District Golf Club at Porthdinllaen is only a few minutes from the site.

I do think to give us a rating of 4/10 in unfair as we have had good reviews all through the season with regards to our Covid response and you have described our campsite as lovely in your own review. We had less pitches booked that weekend than we would in a normal year and we are sorry if you had to wait for the toilet a bit longer than usual because of social distancing rules due to some of the toilets having to be kept locked, but you have to queue a bit longer everywhere in these times.
