  • 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

Great spot near the beach, shops & train. Staff are ace! Pods & site clean, but loos/showers can be a bit rough. Sister site access is a bonus, esp. for kids.

Liked Love absolutely everything about this site been coming for over 16 years and it's everything you need within walking distance and the beach at the end of the road is stunning. Easy access to the train station literally at the back of the site lots to do.

Kathryn S.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked Great views over the sea
Flat pitches, although the far field was a little lumpy in places
Good location - not far from Barmouth and walking distance to the sea.
Showers good and toilets clean, although a few shelves to put things on would have helped.

Disliked Nobody in reception when we arrived and we couldn't get in because of a barrier. Had to ring a number 4 times and kept getting put through to voicemail before someone answered. Was given the code to get through and pitch number. Luckily I had something to write the code on or I would have easily forgotton it.
We were never given the code for the toilet block. I had to get it from another camper after I couldn't get in. I felt the welcome could have been much better - the barrier code, pitch number and toilet code could have all been emailed or texted to us. It's not a great welcome when you can't get in after a long journey.
There were 2 hairdryers in the toilets, but when I went to use them my 20p just fell out - both did the same. Neither of them were working. There were sockets in the bathroom - this would have been handy to know as I'd have brought my own hairdryer. No idea if they were working though.

Powered grass caravan site

Liked Quiet site and facilities were clean.
Short walk to the sands complex for shop,chippy,American diner and arcade,and a bit further for the beach.Ysgethin pub is a short walk away
Train station 2 mins walk aswell
Lovely Sunset and sky was beautiful
Can use sunnysands pool etc although got told we needed passes at Sunnysands..

Disliked Asked why we hadn’t vacated our pitch by 10am the next day despite booking another night same day we arrived.. apparently pitch up didnt let them know we had booked another night!
Also bit of a shame our view was kind of spoiled by a huge heap of soil with loads of broken decking and a couple of scrap caravans

Camping pod (no pets)

Liked By far the nicest campsite we have ever been on, with sea views and the Welsh hills behind us. Was just stunning! Pods were the perfect size and we just loved everything we will definitely visiting again and again. Location to beach and town perfect!!!

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.
