  • Family-friendly smallholding in a rural location on the Llŷn Peninsula
  • Spectacular views towards the peak of Moelypenmaen
  • 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. Off-ground barbecues are allowed and firepits are available on site: for supplies, the local village is Boduan and the shops and services of market town Pwllheli are a few miles away.

What customers say

Guests rave about the welcoming staff, especially Marta, and the gorgeous, serene setting with breathtaking views. Clean, well-kept facilities, with recent upgrades, are a plus. Ideal for exploring the Llyn Peninsula. Watch for limited showers at busy times and some uneven spots.

If your a beginner, expert, beach explorer Hill climber, this is the perfect place! The park since we were last there has improved, the toilets and shower facilities are 5* improvements have been made all around, for the cost and the free facilities on site this is a true gem on the lyn peninsula, thank you all for a fantastic stay!!!

Powered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Our second time staying and we’d 100% visit again. The new facilities are great, kept spotless by the wonderful Marta who works tirelessly. One minor issue we had was sorted out by her very quickly which we really appreciated. A peaceful site with beautiful views and everything on hand to explore the area. Some hooks to hang toiletries bags/towels on in the new toilets is the only thing I can think of to add. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

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.
