  • Sea-view pitches on a private estate on the north coast of Anglesey
  • Five minutes’ drive to Porth Trwyn beach; Holyhead 20 minutes
  • Activities including forest school, archery, massage and wellness
Set in the woodland of a private 17th-century estate, Seren-y-Mor (meaning 'Star of the Sea') is a family-run campsite on the north coast of the Isle of Anglesey. Open to campers and tourers, it’s just a few minutes’ walk from the beach for family fun days and also close to the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path for coastal yomps. Bring your own barbecues, camping stoves and firepits (pick up groceries in Holyhead, 20 minutes’ drive). A couple of pubs are a half hour’s walk away if alfresco cooking isn’t how you want to spend your holiday, and there's also a pizza van that's sometimes around in peak season. On-site activities include archery sessions, tree-top swings and orienteering, as well as wellness and massage. Once you arrive, the owners can help to organise various challenging activities including abseiling and rock climbing along the spectacular coastline. Seren-y-Mor is an eco campsite with composting toilets and hot showers.

Liked: Great location, just off a main road giving easy access to the site and to the rest of the island. The campsite felt like it was a million miles from civilisation which was exactly what I was looking for.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Loved this Location, close to Porth Trwyn beach, part sand part shingle and beautiful church bay. A little remote but great if you’re looking for peace & quiet , dark skies and lots of space to pitch your tent. Very relaxed site. Compost toilets & field showers may seem strange at first but we had no problems, unlimited fresh hot water in showers. Would be nice to have a hot water basin to wash hands after using toilet, but several fresh water points nearby. Quite a trek to the camping field from the estate entrance, uneven & narrow in places, ok for cars and some motor homes but I would think difficult for caravans & wider vehicles .

Route directions

Once you enter the estate, you will cross over two cattle grids. After crossing the second cattle grid, there is a left-hand turning marked 'CAMPING'. Follow the signs on the track through two fields. The final field is the camping field, where the toilets are directly ahead of you. Please pitch up in these fields along the hedge or the treeline, where it is sheltered, leaving eight metres between your pitch and other guests. What3words: clip.relief.abode.

Local attractions

You can learn all about Amlwch and its 18th-century transition from fishing village to copper mining town at the Copper Kingdom Centre (25 minutes’ drive). After checking out the displays, stroll along the colourful trails lacing Parys Mountain, which was once home to the world’s largest copper mine. Step into a tropical environment at Pili Palas Nature World (half an hour). Here you can marvel at butterflies and moths flying all around you in the butterfly house, watch meerkats being fed and meet colourful macaws and cockatoos. There are also exotic spiders and lizards, and (if creepy-crawlies aren’t your thing) fluffy rabbits and inquisitive miniature goats. Sitting on the Menai Strait, Plas Newydd House and Gardens (35 minutes) is an 18th-century mansion with gardens bursting with vibrant hydrangeas and rhododendrons. It’s worth popping inside too, to catch a glimpse of a gigantic mural (measuring 17.5 metres) by Rex Whistler depicting an idealised view from the building.
