  • Basic site overlooking the stunning north Wales countryside
  • A 10-minute drive to Conwy, its castle and the beach at Colwyn Bay
  • A couple of miles from Glan Conwy for shops, pubs and restaurants
The crux of coming to Conwy on holiday? Exploring the North Wales castles, countryside and coast, of course. Handy then that all of these three are within easy access of Penrhiw Uchaf Caravan Site and its lush meadows. This basic site is set on a working farm and comes with toilet and shower facilities. On day trips from this park, veer north and skirt the seaside (10 minutes’ drive or so) to bask on Colwyn Bay and Conwy Morfa beaches or set off south east to the centre of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park (half an hour) and take on the hillwalking trails. If you’d rather not get your heart rate spiking far above normal while on holiday, settle in at the park to gaze at the gorgeously green landscape, watching the lambs frolic in the fields or just staying put and soaking up the peaceful vibes. Making your own meals on the camping stove? Grab bits and bobs from a shop a couple of miles away in Glan Conwy – restaurants and pubs are here as well.

What customers say

This tranquil campsite gets top marks for its nature, stream, and open spaces – perfect for kids and R&R. Friendly owners get a shout-out! Basic but clean facilities with good hot showers; some say an update's due. Remote location is a plus, but narrow roads can be tricky for big rigs. Some noted limited views and no cell service.

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked In wilderness, tree lined very small campsite for about max 10 campervans. Quiet, birds and squirrels...cute. Basic facilities and small. Consider it as a Bush Boys camp.
Roger was a gem, kind and welcoming. Helped us set up

Disliked Bit tricky getting to it, sharp turn off up to it, up steep one way stone wall lined lane (lucky we didn't meet fat tractor coming down) neighbour led us to it because very discreet signage.

Local attractions

This park’s close to several of the top sightseeing spots in north Wales. Flit to the fantastically preserved Conwy Castle (10 minutes’ drive) to feast your eyes on fortifications dating back to the 13th century, making sure to walk the walls as well for views over the town below. Descend into the streets and have a quick stop at the Smallest House in Great Britain, followed up by a longer one at the restored Elizabethan-era home Plas Mawr. Later on, browse the boutiques before seeking out a cosy pub for a beverage or two. For strolls surrounded by spectacular scenery, make your way to the National Trust’s Bodnant Garden (10 minutes) and amble through the 80 acres of wildflower meadows, glades and pristine lawns set on a hillside. Too placid for your tastes? Zoom down a zipwire suspended above a disused slate quarry at Zip World Llechwedd (half an hour away).
