  • Well-maintained Anglesey pitches on a family-run working farm
  • A 10-minute drive to Parys Mountain; 20 minutes to Benllech beach
  • Very short walk to local pub; five minutes' drive to Amlwch
Up at the top end of the Isle of Anglesey is generally a great place to take a peaceful holiday – but it gets even better when there’s a local pub a mere 50 yards away. And that’s the situation you’ll find yourself in when you stay at Cae Ffynnon, part of a working farm about five minutes’ drive inland from Amlwch. Pitches at this small family-run site are well maintained and well located, within easy reach of walking trails, bike paths, beaches, boat trips and the port at Holyhead (about half an hour’s drive away for those boarding a ferry to Ireland). And of course there’s that village pub a short walk away for a good feed and a welcome pint after your day out. You’ll have plenty of space to spread out on your pitch when you’re staying here, and you’ll be provided with some handy amenities including an electric hookup and picnic bench for each pitch. Shared facilities include toilets, showers and a washing-up area and you’re welcome to bring dogs and kids along for a stay here. Being so close to Amlwch means that you’ll have easy enough access to shops and places to eat (and the beach…) despite your peaceful immediate surroundings.

What customers say

A ripper little spot on Anglesey, Len's a legend and the location's top notch for exploring. Campsites are decent sized and flat. Close to a pub with good grub. While it's pretty basic, some reckon the loos and showers are a bit limited, though upgrades are on the cards. Overall, a fair dinkum budget option for a chill, no-frills escape.

Stephen G.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked The site is nice and small
Owner is very pleasant and helpful
Price is nice and affordable
Location is handy for much of Anglesey
Plenty of birds if you like that sort of thing.

Disliked Toilet and shower left a lot to be desired, one of each. No real place to have a good wash without getting water everywhere, except the pot wash area, but not private, and its a pot wash!
Toilet extension is underway (we spoke to the workman), and it may be much improved in future, but this review is for August 2025.

Only 1 toilet & 1 shower - but not a problem even tho site was busy.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Very affordable. Very friendly owner Len.
Good location to visit places. Roads quiet nearby so can cycle. Pub ‘The Ring’ 2 mins walk does lovely food & staff are friendly. Basic site which is reflected in the very affordable price.

Disliked Bring earplugs as the crows, pigeons & cockerel start their day at 5.30am in the summer! However that’s all part of sleeping out in nature.

Liked The location is ok and the pub does good food.

Disliked The toilet block is unhygienic and woeful. One toilet, one shower. Would have been peaceful but TVs blaring until 11pm. No one on site to tell them to be quiet.

Liked The site is a good location for exploring Anglesey. Very clean and tidy with a friendly host.

There is a pub literally 1 minute down the road which when looking on the outside you could assume is an old country pub, maybe run down. But inside it has clearly been refurbished in recent years serving good food.

Disliked There is a very loud cockerel and other birds which will wake you up very very early.

The toilets are adequate, but 1 toilet and shower for a relatively busy site isn’t enough at busy times with people often waiting outside them.

Liked The peaceful and quiet location
Close to the local pub which serves great food and a great pint
Owner Len was fantastic fella and was extremely helpful throughout our stay.
The pitch ups were well cared for and tidy.

Disliked Unfortunately the shower and toilet facilities could do with upgrading as they very basic, to which the owner mentioned that they were undergoing renovations for that.

Liked Pitches and setting.

Disliked Toilet and shower facilities, though I must say they were clean and well maintained. It would have been more of a problem had it been a full sight.

Local attractions

A trip to Anglesey is usually all about the outdoor activities, and you’ll be well placed for those with a stay here. A drive of a little over five minutes will get you to a fishing spot at Llyn Alaw or a challenging but scenic round at Bull Bay Golf Club. Boats also head out from Amlwch harbour (five minutes’ drive) for sea fishing or just a bit of coastal sightseeing. There’s plenty of sightseeing to do on land too, whether you head out on the Anglesey Coast Path or aim for Parys Mountain (10 minutes’ drive) for a fabulous stroll through the colourful landscapes left behind by an ancient copper mine. The Copper Kingdom Centre (five minutes) will give you further insight into this aspect of the island’s past. And what about when you’d just like to sit on the beach, thanks very much? There’s a small stretch of sand at Amlwch, but you’d be better off heading to Lligwy (15 minutes), Church Bay (20 minutes) or Benllech (20 minutes) if you’re planning to spend a whole day swimming and sandcastle building.
