What customers say
Pen Y Bont Caravan Park gets kudos for great, modern facilities, spotless washrooms, and friendly staff. It's in a beautiful spot with roomy pitches, near Bala Lake and town. Guests love the peaceful vibe, tidy grounds, and handy shop. Most recommend it, though some note road noise on certain pitches and spotty WiFi.

Branwen shepherd's hut (hot tub)
Liked Beautiful location, friendly and helpful staff. The Hot tub was ready when we arrived and hot. View from accommodation was great.

From the manager: Thank you Paul, we're glad you enjoyed your stay in Branwen - the view from that particular hut is rather special!
Apologies for the dog hairs found on the throw, all 3 huts are dog friendly but this does not excuse the hair - we will strive to make sure this does not happen again.
