  • Peaceful, dog-friendly Llŷn Peninsula site with sea and mountain views
  • A 15-minute drive from Abersoch and Aberdaron, with mountains nearby
  • Pubs, shops and a petrol station within walking distance of the site
Sea and mountain views? Check. Easy access to Llŷn Peninsula seaside havens? Check. A peaceful atmosphere for your chilled-out, pet-friendly breaks. Check, again. Well-maintained and family-oriented Cellar Farm Caravan and Camping is looking like an excellent candidate for all sorts of outdoor breaks. So, where exactly is it? The peaceful village of Botwnnog is just 15 minutes’ drive away from Abersoch (a fishing port with a sandy beach and sailing activities) and Aberdaron (just as pretty of a village on the seafront). Since you’ll be landing in a prime spot on the Llŷn Peninsula, expect to be well-based for roaming over the coastal path that runs the whole length of the peninsula. There are beaches, pubs, restaurants and stunning views all around the peninsula, as well as mountains for the keen hikers who like to set themselves a steep challenge. Keep your tank (and your car’s tank) topped up at the petrol station, two shops and two pubs within 40 minutes’ walk of the site – sourcing tasty food should be pips in the pubs. On site, there’s drinking water available, along with a toilet block. The field’s split into two, with one side reserved for guests and the other occupied by the site’s sheep and cattle (who like to say hello when they get the chance).

Local attractions

With the peaceful slopes of the Llŷn Peninsula so close by, the trickiest part is narrowing down which mountains to tackle first. Will it be Carn Fadryn (10 minutes’ drive), named after the five-hectare Iron Age hillfort that takes prime spot on the peak? Mynydd Rhiw (20 minutes), 304 metres high and home to a prehistoric axe factory which was discovered back in 1950s mid gorse burning? Uwchmynydd (20 minutes), which has views over wild coastline? Yr Eifl (35 minutes) is a cluster of hills with views as far as the Lake District and the Isle of Man. The sea’s another setting that must feature in your getaway, and just one glance at a picture of the Trefor Sea Stacks (40 minutes) or the broad sandy bay of Porth Neigwl (15 minutes) should convince you to set off in a hurry. From Aberdaron (15 minutes), there are boat trips to Ynys Enlli, also known as Bardsey Island, which has colonies of grey seals and other gorgeous wildlife.

Unpowered concrete slab caravan site

Liked: The site was situated in a lovely location , panoramic mountain views and a sew view. It was quiet and well set up for families in terms of space.

Disliked: Pitches could of done with some form of number system, as we left our drive away awning up and went on a day out and when we arrived back a caravan had parked where we needed to be to hook up the drive away awning. Toilets where clean but no hot water or lights.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: well maintained grass area.

Disliked: The toilets were not very clean. Smelt bad. No hot water for washing hands. A lot of loud music from other campers till midnight. Dogs allowed to Roam and poo everywhere by the other campers. Owner isn’t on site so is unaware of what happens. If you have your own toilet and like wild camping with no showers this place is perfect. Didn’t meant the staff / owner waited for her but it’s our holiday so didn’t want to wait around all day for her to arrive. She text me the morning we was due to arrive and asked me to send the remaining payment which I did but found this a very unprofessional way to contact someone. A lot of improvement required. But I guess you pay for cheap you get cheap.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Fab location and good size pitches

Disliked: Could of done with lights in the toilets. Not the campsites fault but there was people playing football at 6:30am with their dog where the ball landed on our tent several times. Also music been played loudly at 7:30am. There was also several dogs running around the campsite of the lead which just took the nice relaxing atmosphere away from when we first arrived.
