  • Sea-view pitches on a private estate on the north coast of Anglesey
  • Five minutes’ drive to Porth Trwyn beach; Holyhead 20 minutes
  • Near the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path; half an hour's walk from pubs
Set in the woodland of a private 17th-century estate, Seren-y-Mor (meaning 'Star of the Sea') is a family-run campsite on the north coast of the Isle of Anglesey. It’s just a few minutes’ walk from the beach for family fun days and also close to the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path for coastal yomps. Bring your own barbecues, camping stoves and firepits (pick up groceries in Holyhead, 20 minutes’ drive). A couple of pubs are a half hour’s walk away if alfresco cooking isn’t how you want to spend your holiday. The pub and café in Church Bay should be some splendid picks for eating out – they're a five-minute drive away, or just over an hour's walk. Pop-up food stands also visit the site during high season. Seren-y-Mor is an eco campsite with composting toilets and hot showers.

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked: An absolute hidden gem, the most wonderful location, super peaceful, and a spacious campsite meaning you're not hemmed in next to other campers - there's also a few spots where you can hide away to have a nice private camping spot.
The showers were really unexpected, some clever upcycling of old IBC's, we weren't expecting such great water pressure and to have them so warm, very luxurious!

This might be our favorite campsite ever!

From the manager: Hi, Thank you so much for staying, sorry there was no hand soap, people usually bring there own, but I will pop some there. Im so confused by your rating as the site is immaculate, wild and rustic. We have just had two fully booked weekends, with happy lovely campers. My number is on the toilets and reception, and booking info, if you stay again and need anything at all please feel free to contact me xxxxx

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Lovely campsite. Nina and Bob did everything the could to make sure we had the best stay - including advising where things are, walks with the kids and lending us a piece we were missing for our gas stove! We are so grateful and all of these things did make the difference for us. Don’t come if you’re put off by basic, we weren’t.

Disliked: I think compost toilets are a great idea, but just not so keen on the three in a row aspect. However, won’t stop us returning!

From the manager: So lovely to meet you all, such a lovely family! Hopefully see you again, enjoy the rest of your travels.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: beautiful view from the campsite, perfect location for beaches and bays either by car or foot, lovely hot showers. Driving to the mainland was really easy as the roads are really good so had days out in Caenarfon and Bangor as well as places on Anglesey itself. Really peaceful stay. Recommend the Bay View Restaurant for food as very affordable, friendly and more great views. Campsite was really friendly feeling and we all had lots of space. Pack warm though - had a few chilly evenings from the sea wind!
Would definitely book again x

Route directions

Once you enter the estate, you will cross over two cattle grids. After crossing the second cattle grid, there is a left-hand turning marked 'CAMPING'. Follow the signs on the track through two fields. The final field is the camping field, where the toilets are directly ahead of you. Please pitch up in these fields along the hedge or the treeline, where it is sheltered, leaving eight metres between your pitch and other guests. What3words: clip.relief.abode.

Local attractions

You can learn all about Amlwch and its 18th-century transition from fishing village to copper mining town at the Copper Kingdom Centre (25 minutes’ drive). After checking out the displays, stroll along the colourful trails lacing Parys Mountain, which was once home to the world’s largest copper mine. Step into a tropical environment at Pili Palas Nature World (half an hour). Here you can marvel at butterflies and moths flying all around you in the butterfly house, watch meerkats being fed and meet colourful macaws and cockatoos. There are also exotic spiders and lizards, and (if creepy-crawlies aren’t your thing) fluffy rabbits and inquisitive miniature goats. Sitting on the Menai Strait, Plas Newydd House and Gardens (35 minutes) is an 18th-century mansion with gardens bursting with vibrant hydrangeas and rhododendrons. It’s worth popping inside too, to catch a glimpse of a gigantic mural (measuring 17.5 metres) by Rex Whistler depicting an idealised view from the building.
