  • Family site two miles from Barmouth
  • Sea views on site; short walk from Talybont station
  • Access to facilities of sister site including swimming pool
Settle in for sea views from several corners of the site at Tyddyn Goronwy Camping Park in Gwynedd, in the seaside village of Tal-y-Bont and a couple of miles from the beaut beach at Barmouth. Pods and pitches here are flanked by sea and mountain views, and are within easy walking distance of the village, which has a takeaway and a riverside pub. Even closer is Talybont station, a couple of minutes' walk away and handy for outings to Barmouth beach or north to the peaks of Snowdonia. Showers, toilets and a washing-up area are available on site. The pitch price at Tyddyn Goronwy also includes a free leisure pass to its sister park Sunnysands Caravan Park, a short drive away, to use its heated indoor pool, café, fish and chip shop and other facilities – and you might want to stick around for the spectacular beachfront sunsets too.

What customers say

Grand spot, close to the beach and shops, with a handy train station. Staff are sound. Pods and the site itself are usually grand, but the toilets and showers can be a bit basic, sometimes not the cleanest or needing a bit of a spruce-up. Access to the other site's facilities is a winner, especially for the kids.

Paul R.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Location was good, camp site was quite small so easy access to the toilets and showers. Great views.

Disliked Pitch right next to the bins 😔😔😔 felt more like we were in the way of the constant traffic to and from the bins. Not sure why they’d even try a squash another pitch in there . On the third morning the bins hadn’t been collected so there was rubbish everywhere. There was nobody in the office to complain to. Kids weren’t impressed with toilet:/shower facilities. Cobwebs and clumps of hair- not a good combination.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Definitely going back next year

Peter M.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Very beautiful surroundings, great for the beach and for access to hiking trails. The Lyons Holiday park had loads for the kids & the beach is beautiful. not far from Barmouth town centre and the beach there is stunning. The site itself is clean, well looked after and the staff are brilliant. Good Showers and facilities, Laundry is useful and reasonably priced too. Sands arcade is a short walk from the site with a bar and a decent shop. really nice location & can't fault it.

Disliked Pool is a little small and very bust so you have to book, access is given to the other Sunnysands pool but this too is quite small. The prices in the Lyons bars are quite steep too but that's what you get at a holiday camp. Overall it's a great place to stay.

Local attractions

To Barmouth first, of course: its position on the north Wales coast surrounded by Snowdonia National Park makes it a popular and pretty place to visit – and the huge beach is pretty special to see as well. Away from the coast (eventually), a wide range of activities is available around Tyddyn Goronwy Camping Park, from cycling to hiking to pony trekking – or strap on lots of energy and tackle the Snowdon and Cadair Idris mountain ranges a short distance away. A chuffing good way to see the spectacular scenery of north Wales is on one of its small steam trains: the nearest to Tyddyn Goronwy are the Fairbourne Steam Railway just outside Barmouth and the Ffestiniog Railway about 10 miles away.
