  • Premium Snowdonia National Park touring park with mountain views
  • 10 minutes’ drive from Llanberis; Zip World Penrhyn Quarry 15 minutes
  • Pub, swimming pool and playground; walks and cycle rides from site
Set in the hilly and forested countryside of North Wales, Snowdon View Caravan Park has dazzling views – yes, you guessed it – right to mighty Mount Snowdon itself. A 10-minute drive from Llanberis in the middle of Snowdonia National Park, this neatly landscaped and peaceful park is designed to make life easy for you. The Little Tavern is on site or a chilled drink and alfresco meal in the summer beer garden, or for dining by the cosy inglenook fireplace in cooler months, so there’s no need to worry about cooking (please check opening times, which are reduced in low season). Other handy facilities include pristine shower blocks, mother-and-baby rooms, and coin-operated washing machines available 24/7. Of course, a holiday wouldn’t be a holiday if you have to leave the family dog behind, but they're welcome here – you can exercise your four-legged pals on the dedicated nature trail around the park. And whatever your sporty interests, there is a holiday activity to suit you and your family. Stay on site for a dip in the heated indoor swimming pool, take a fun ride on the zipwire and let younger kids run riot on the climbing frames and swings at the play area. Just a little further afield, go boating and fishing on the clear waters of Llyn Padarn lake (five minutes’ drive), or spend time exploring spectacular Snowdonia National Park. Anything else you need to know? Head for reception, where welcoming staff members can fill you in on local attractions and advise you on what to see and do.

Local attractions

Join the race to get out into Snowdonia National Park: many walks and cycle rides can be accessed from the caravan park. Other ways to appreciate the spectacular landscapes include boating on Llyn Padarn lake (five minutes’ drive), or climbing aboard the Snowdon Mountain Railway (10 minutes) to chug across viaducts and valleys to the summit of Wales’ highest peak. If child-friendly days out feature on your holiday agenda, make a beeline for the Welsh Mountain Zoo (35 minutes) to see rare snow leopards or become keepers for the day. Up the ante by testing family nerves on the zipwires at Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (15 minutes), or have a go at trampolining in a former mine at Zip World Llechwedd (50 minutes). Add a touch of history to your Snowdonia break with a visit to the workshops and massive waterwheel at the National Slate Museum (10 minutes), or tour the museums and towers of medieval Caernarfon Castle (15 minutes).

What customers say

Clean, well-kept park with great views and friendly staff. On-site pub offers good food/drinks. Popular amenities: indoor pool, sauna, steam room, kids' play area. Some touring pitches are tricky to access. Shower hot water/drainage issues noted; pool refurb planned. Some feel it's geared toward owners.

Power optional cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked This is a busy and popular site. There’s a little pub near the reception and entrance, staffed by friendly people and offering a good selection of food and drinks.

Unfortunately, the pitch we were initially allocated—Field 3, Pitch 10—was extremely disappointing and definitely not worth £47 per night. It felt like a last-resort spot: a patch of gravel at the end of a lane, surrounded by trees. When we arrived, there were two cars already parked on it, and the electric hook-up was being used by a permanent caravan on the adjacent pitch.

After a four-hour drive in 30°C heat, this was not the welcome we hoped for. We asked to be moved but were told we had to stay there, and were advised to track down the car owners and speak with the neighbour about the electric. This response was far from helpful or reassuring.

We were genuinely considering leaving and finding another site. Thankfully, common sense prevailed and, since it was just for one night, we were offered a seasonal pitch that wasn't in use. This alternative was far more suitable and resembled a proper touring pitch.

On a positive note, the toilets and showers were clean and well maintained.

Absolutely would revisit, had a lovely time:)

Power optional cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked The location is beautiful and the call out guy was very attentive and helpful when having issues with the electric meter cards.

Disliked Expensive for partially serviced pitch. The showers and toilets weren't very clean. The spa and swimming pool facilities were clearly not thought through during design. As the shower/changing rooms are tiny and puddle due to lack of drainage. The lights in the shower room are directly over the shower heads creating a shadow with very little light. The shower temperature were extremely hot to the point of burning. Looks like a lack of focus towards the touring caravan community. Focused mainly on statics. More cover for the outdoor sinks for washing dishes as some people washed dishes in the bathroom sinks due to lack of cover when raining.

Liked The children's park and a lovely little pub. Also had a little bouncy castle for the kids. and the staff in reception and pub very friendly and welcoming.

Disliked The showers could have done with being a little big bigger hard to get yourself and a little one showered in there. but they was clean especially for a busy bank holiday weekend.
