  • Premium Snowdonia National Park touring park with mountain views
  • 10 minutes’ drive from Llanberis; Zip World Penrhyn Quarry 15 minutes
  • Pub, swimming pool and playground; walks and cycle rides from site
Set in the hilly and forested countryside of North Wales, Snowdon View Caravan Park has dazzling views – yes, you guessed it – right to mighty Mount Snowdon itself. A 10-minute drive from Llanberis in the middle of Snowdonia National Park, this neatly landscaped and peaceful park is designed to make life easy for you. The Little Tavern is open daily for a chilled drink and alfresco meal in the summer beer garden, or for dining by the cosy inglenook fireplace in cooler months, so there’s no need to worry about cooking. Other handy facilities include pristine shower blocks, mother-and-baby rooms, and coin-operated washing machines available 24/7. Of course, a holiday wouldn’t be a holiday if you have to leave the family dog behind, but they're welcome here – you can exercise your four-legged pals on the dedicated nature trail around the park. And whatever your sporty interests, there is a holiday activity to suit you and your family. Stay on site for a dip in the heated indoor swimming pool, take a fun ride on the zipwire and let younger kids run riot on the climbing frames and swings at the play area. Just a little further afield, go boating and fishing on the clear waters of Llyn Padarn lake (five minutes’ drive), or spend time exploring spectacular Snowdonia National Park. Anything else you need to know? Head for reception, where welcoming staff members can fill you in on local attractions and advise you on what to see and do.

Electric optional hardstanding touring caravan pitch

Liked: The site and the facilities,showers,toilets and pool all very good.

Disliked: No showers or changing in the pool. The major let down was The Little Tavern pub which located on the site. I don't think any of the staff have run a pub before. The service was awful and the food no better.

Nichanan C. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric optional hardstanding touring caravan pitch

Liked: Lovely campsite with lovely amenities.

Disliked: I googled camping in Snowden and this campsite came up on pitchup.com. It was an electric pitch and you could take a motor home, which was perfect for us as we had a 4 month old baby coming with us. We had a camper van to take, but couple of our friends were staying with us so we also took a tent. After being at the site for an hour setting up the tent, a member of staff came over and told us that they don’t have a tent licence, but only awnings! It was also a bank holiday Monday in the late afternoon. The staff member was very dismissive and told us that we would have to leave the site. We had to take the tent back down and also had to look for another site with electric as this was vital for our stay with a baby. The nearest site was over an hour away and we ended up in a big open field with hardly any amenities on site. I feel that pitchup shouldn’t advertise campsites that don’t let tents on or make clearer rather just a little sign with a cross on the tent, which I obviously missed. But the word “pitchup” generally means camping with tents, and the pictures were misleading, as the awnings resembled tents. So this pretty much ruined our whole experience.

Local attractions

Join the race to get out into Snowdonia National Park: many walks and cycle rides can be accessed from the caravan park. Other ways to appreciate the spectacular landscapes include boating on Llyn Padarn lake (five minutes’ drive), or climbing aboard the Snowdon Mountain Railway (10 minutes) to chug across viaducts and valleys to the summit of Wales’ highest peak. If child-friendly days out feature on your holiday agenda, make a beeline for the Welsh Mountain Zoo (35 minutes) to see rare snow leopards or become keepers for the day, and help your offspring find their surfing feet on the waves at Adventure Parc Snowdonia (40 minutes). Up the ante by testing family nerves on the zipwires at Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (15 minutes), or have a go at trampolining in a former mine at Zip World Llechwedd (50 minutes). Add a touch of history to your Snowdonia break with a visit to the workshops and massive waterwheel at the National Slate Museum (10 minutes), or tour the museums and towers of medieval Caernarfon Castle (15 minutes).
