  • Laidback site with 8.5 acres in Bryneglwys village
  • A 25-minute drive from Lake Bala and 40 minutes from Chester
  • Fresh eggs, friendly farm animals and a well-stocked outdoor bar
A chilled site in a quiet corner of Denbighshire, New Inn is a fine place to bag a relaxed rural break. With its splendid views, this popular little spot is within easy reach of attractions in and around Snowdonia, Chester and beyond. Although the former pub is permanently closed, it has a well-stocked outdoor bar called the Wobbly Dog selling draft beer and seasonal local produce. The peaceful park is also a five-minute stroll from Bryneglwys village centre, where the local stores and tea room are on hand to sort out any off-site food needs. Need to organise a bulk shop? Corwen (15 minutes' drive) is home to a bigger range of grocery shops. One of the big draws of New Inn is the number of simple pleasures to be had here, like collecting your own eggs from the site's friendly hens or watching the tame sheep frolicking through the grass. There's also ample room for setting up bonfires or barbecues and for roaming through the wilder parts of the 8.5-acre grounds. The facilities at this back to basics spot are low-key but well-maintained, with a toilet block that's got four toilets, four hot-water sinks, two showers and a washing-up sink. Phone charging is available too, to help you keep power up for your outings.

Primitive grass tent campsite (large, no pets)

Liked The campsite is incredibly clean and the owners are exceptional. The site has sheep and pigs and free range chickens much to the delight of our grandchildren. I highly recommend this site to anyone with younger children who wants to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Thanks for making us feel so welcome

Primitive grass tent campsite (large, no pets)

Liked We had such a lovely night away camping and a first for the Grandkids.
We had a double pitch on the front and was a great space to chill and play.
The Grandkids loved the free roaming chickens.
On the Dat evening was a bonfire and toasting your marshmallows for S’mores. This was free and it was such a great thing to do and get other campers talking.
The bar/shop was a cracking extra also

Tom C.

Primitive grass tent campsite (large, no pets)

Liked New Inn is brilliant for families. There was lots of space in between pitches and plenty of room per pitch. The kids were well entertained with the roaming chickens and with no cars on site they could roam freely and safely. Lee, the owner, is a lovely man and ws super helpful on arrival. He even puts on saturday night marshamallow toasting/smores making for all families and his self-built outdoot bar is brilliant - freshly poured pints, coffee and other items you need for camping. Great location as well - far enough way from civilisation and close enough if you need something. Only a 20 min drive into Llangollen. Showers and toilets on site were nice and clean as well. Will definitely be visiting again!

Local attractions

Get gallivanting through the green grounds of Erddig Hall (30 minutes' drive), Chirk Castle (30 minutes) or Ness Botanic Gardens (50 minutes) for fab floral displays, impressive buildings and splendid outdoor strolls. They have something else in common too: top-rated cafés where you can take afternoon tea in genteel garden surrounds. Those magnificently manicured spots strike a cracking contrast with wilder haunts like the shores of Lake Bala (25 minutes), Castell Dinas Brân (25 minutes) and Horseshoe Falls (20 minutes). There's also scope for giving your walking boots and mountain bikes a run for their money at Oneplanet Adventure (10 minutes), a forest visitor centre surrounded by a host of waymarked trails. Further full-on action can be found at the National White Water Centre (30 minutes), while those of a less intrepid temperament have Chester Zoo (40 minutes) not much further away. After making friends with sloths, elephants and jaguars, saunter down into the centre for a stroll down by the Dee or a laidback riverboat cruise.
