Spectacularly scenic riverside park in the Tanat Valley
Hikes directly from the site and Lake Bala 13 miles away
Two dog-friendly pubs within walking distance

Cor. Have a look at this site’s setting: parked alongside the Tanat river and surrounded by peaks in the spectacularly scenic Tanat Valley in mid Wales’ Berwyn Mountains, it’s right near the pretty village of Llangynog, where the Tanat and Eirth rivers meet. And there’s more: right on the edge of Snowdonia National Park, Henstent Park’s surrounds are not only scenic but they're also handily set for jaunts to the market towns of Welshpool and Oswestry, plus the Vyrnwy and Bala lakes. The smashing views are 360 here – at every turn you’ll see grass, trees and mountains – and as the site’s bordered by a river, there’s the option to have a go at fishing nearby. This is a smashing site for walkers too: several hiking trails lead directly from the site and it’s a three-hour trek (or a 20-minute drive) up to Wales’ highest waterfall, Pistyll Rhaeadr. A gated dog walk runs alongside the riverbank (and one dog-friendly pub is within easy walking distance). The bathroom block – with free hot showers – has been hailed by previous guests as immaculate and spotless.

Electric hardstanding campervan pitch (small)

Liked: Roy & Caroline run a great site and couldn't be more helpful. We stayed on a gravel pitch by the river which was perfect. Beautiful views and plenty of wildlife to watch. Dog facilities were brilliant too. Thank you for a lovely, relaxing stay.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

From the manager: Thank you so much for the great review we love making our visitors happy. We are so lucky to have such a stunning backdrop to the park and the wildlife that surround us.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked: Beautiful location with stunning views of the nearby hills/mountains. Next to a stream with footbridges that allow you to cross over and then enjoy a pleasant walk along the river.
Friendly reception when I arrived. I was given a good explanation of the site and facilities and some suggestions of local places to visit.
Toilet and shower facilities appeared to be very new and were very clean.
The grounds are very well kept with the grass areas well manicured.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Its been a sunny year so far and we are enjoying the great feedback and the pictures everyone is posting. Come back soon.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked: Clean and tidy site with spotless toilet facilities. Very friendly staff. River view and the sound of the river throughout.Pleasant walk along the river to the nearest pub through sheep fields. (Could not rate on child friendliness as we hadn't got children with us but there were families with children onsite.

Disliked: Not much around it.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking time to leave a review, We do not have much entertainment on the site for children, unless they like waking and watching wildlife. There is a playground in the village and we are really well placed for visiting the coast as its only just over an hour away.

What a beautiful place!

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked: We loved our stay here - thank you!
Our pitch was by the river, with lambs in the field behind and surrounded by stunning scenery. Lots of lovely walks right on the doorstep; the local pub is only a short stroll away, where we enjoyed our meal. We are already planning a longer visit for the summer, when we hope to be able to explore the nearby lakes a bit more.

Disliked: Nothing.

(Though I might suggest some vacant/occupied signs for the toilet/shower doors perhaps).

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. The lakes are lovely in this part of Wales and well worth a visit along with the waterfalls. Thank you for the review and we will look at what we can do regarding your comment about the bathroom and toilet doors.

Local attractions

Several walks lead directly from the site, and you can lace up your boots, pack up a picnic and hike the eight miles up to Wales’ highest waterfall, Pistyll Rhaeadr if you’re feeling particularly energised. Other outdoorsy pursuits within easy reach include horse riding, fishing and cycling… And as the site is right near Llangynog village, you’re also well placed for challenging and spectacularly scenic bike rides around the Milltir Cerrig mountain pass along the B4391, which runs between Llan Ffestiniog and Llanfyllin. If you fancy checking out the area’s lakes, the route over the mountain to Bala – 90 minutes’ bike ride or 25 minutes by car – is a highly scenic one, and at the end you’ll be greeted by lots of watery sports such as canoeing, windsurfing and whitewater rafting, or climbing, hiking, cycling, abseiling, archery and campcraft if you’d prefer to stay dry. Lake Vwrnwy is an easy half hour away.
