  • Luxurious glamping site near Gwynedd in Snowdonia National Park
  • A 40-minute drive to Zip World Llechwedd and Portmeirion
  • Well-equipped units with decking; shops and pubs five minutes’ drive
Set in mountainous Gwynedd countryside in the middle of Snowdonia National Park, Torrent Walk Glamping is surrounded by farmland where friendly ponies and sheep graze. It’s a handy base for anyone wanting to explore all the park has to offer and come back to something really rather luxurious at the end of a day in the fresh air. 

 All the glamping units on site are dog-friendly (either two small or one large dog per unit), and for your ease, all bedding is provided. Kitchens come with all the cooking essentials (microwave, toaster, fridge, kettle and so on) and outside there is private decking with firepits and barbecue equipment on hand – just the spot for stargazing around a warming campfire on clear nights.

 If you’d rather have a rest from cooking (whose holiday is it, after all?), historic Dolgellau (five minutes’ drive) has lots of shops, cafés, pubs and bistros where you can eat in, pick up takeaways and have a crafty pint or two into the bargain. Need something to get you going in the morning? There’s a coffee chain within five minutes’ walking distance too. 

Communal washing machines take care of keeping everyone looking their best, and charging facilities mean that teens won’t lose contact with their mates back home.

What customers say

Guests love the stunning Snowdonia setting and relaxed owner vibe. Well-equipped, cosy pods and tents get high marks, as do fire pits, picnic tables, and hot tubs. Clean facilities, with recent shower/toilet upgrades (July 2024), are a plus. Minor suggestions include shower block tweaks and basic supplies. Ideal for a peaceful stay amidst beautiful scenery, great for dogs and families.

3 bedroom safari tent (deluxe)

Liked The safari tent was rustically beautiful, and cozy. Plenty of hot water and well equipped kitchen. The hot tub heated within an hour and comfortably fit 6 people. The indoor wood burner kept the tent warm. There was space to dine inside and out. Lots of nice little touches such a blankets, kids games and a BBQ/fire pit.

Disliked Nothing.

2 bedroom safari tent (hot tub, five person)

Liked Absolutely lovely lil Gem hidden away from the world. Really quiet. Everything you in the tent. They've thought of everything. Had a fab weekend. Highly recommend. Plenty of great places too visit locally too. Great for walks and great scenery to view.

Disliked Not really a bad thing but it is quiet steep to get up to the tent. I had no issue but could see others struggling if not great on their feet.

2 bedroom safari tent (hot tub, five person)

Liked Great location in the Snowdonia national park, a really lovely site with a hands off style from the owners unless extra supplies needed - ie logs or kindling etc. Fellow campers were great during our stay with a broad mix of the experienced down to rookies including many overseas visitors with almost everyone observing the noise rules which ensured we had a relaxing stay. The shower/toilet block was excellent very clean and in perfect working order. Recycling facilities were good and the site virtually spotless. We would thoroughly recommend this campsite and hope to visit again in the future.

Disliked Ice cream was available from office but perhaps some basic provisions on sale would be of convenience.

Local attractions

Many local walks, including the campsite’s namesake Torrent Walk – a scenic, short and circular stroll alongside the River Clywedog – start from near the pitches. Walk or cycle the Mawddach Trail along a former railway line between Dolgellau (five minutes’ drive) and Barmouth (20 minutes), or choose a more challenging route like the Pony Path from Ty Nant (half an hour) for Cader Idris mountain views.

 Anyone seeking more adventurous pursuits won’t be disappointed: zoom through former slate mines or have a go on the underground Bounce Below nets at Zip World Llechwedd (40 minutes), or get out on the challenging mountain bike trails at Coed y Brenin (25 minutes) and Dyfi Bike Park (20 minutes), or go boating on Llyn Tegid at Bala (half an hour).

 After a gentler sort of day out? Book candle-making workshops or go gin tasting at Corris Craft Centre (15 minutes) or spend a day wandering around Portmeirion (40 minutes), built to resemble an Italian village and overlooking the coast.
