  • Family-friendly site 100 metres from the promenade
  • A 15-minute walk from Barmouth beach; 25 minutes to the town centre
  • Playground and a shop on site; on National Cycle Route 8
Just 100 metres from the sea, Hendre Mynach Caravan and Camping Park is a rather splendid base for a break in northwest Wales. This family-friendly site is a five-minute stroll from Barmouth’s promenade, and sandy Barmouth beach is a pleasant 15 minutes’ walk away – or a quick ride on the small land train that travels up and down the promenade. When you’re not sea fishing from the shore, taking a peaceful paddle or watching the kids bounce on the trampolines on the beach, head to Barmouth Harbour (half an hour’s walk), the departure point for boat trips and off-shore fishing. An amusement park and leisure centre are other entertainment options in town, where foodies will find plenty of cafĂ©s and restaurants. Hendre Mynach Caravan and Camping Park is a convivial spot: families, couples, friendly bikers and rallies (outside of peak season, please) are all welcome, as are backpackers and solo travellers (at a discount during low season). There’s a playground for the kids, and keen cyclists are also catered for: National Cycle Route 8 runs past the site. It’s well equipped too, with water on all pitches, washing-up facilities and a modern shower block with shaver points, hairdryer and straighteners. There’s also a launderette, baby-change facilities with a baby bath, Elsan waste disposal points, a drive-on motorhome drain, tarmac roads and CCTV. Helpful staff are available 24 hours a day, gas and wifi are sold at reception, and there’s a shop on site, plus a local bus stop nearby.

What customers say

Great spot, a stone's throw from the beach and town. Friendly staff, clean ablutions (a bit old school), and spacious, level pitches with water/e-hook-ups. Families love it for the peace and good value.

Abbygail T.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The site is well kept and has plenty of space. The kids enjoyed the play park and it was super convenient having the beach just across the road (although if you want a proper sandy beach you need to walk a little further). The staff were friendly and helpful.

Be mindful (especially if towing) that wales is very hilly and the campsite is no exception, there is a steep driveway in and out of the site.


There was WiFi available but I can’t comment on how good it is as we didn’t connect to it (holiday is a good time to disconnect)

Disliked There are overhead power lines running across the site and although we didn’t get placed under them, I would like the option to choose our pitch for future stays to ensure we are as far away from them as possible.

Would benefit from more washing up stations.

Robert P.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Everything, very good, stalls friendly and site very nice

Disliked There seemed to be only one set of toilets and showers, were a long way from the non electric camping area. I was able to use the showers easily but given the size of the site I would suggest a new block of toilets and showers is made available

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked We stayed at Hendre Mynach campsite and one of the best things about it is how close it is to the beach. It’s only a short walk, so you don’t have to worry about driving or finding parking. The beach itself is long, clean, and perfect for walks, especially at sunset. It’s ideal for families, with plenty of space for kids to play, and the sea is great for paddling or a swim on a warm day. Having the beach right on the doorstep really adds to the convenience.

Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked This was one of the best camp sites I’ve been to so far, they helped me and my sister out very accommodating and friendly. The facilities are always clean and the little shop had what you needed, the beach is very close by great for the kids and the camp area was lovely and quiet with your own water supply. Very impressive we had a great holiday thank you đŸ€©

Local attractions

The burial site of Cors y Gedol (10 minutes’ drive) dates from about 4000 BC. Not much is left of the original stone mound, but the sea views alone are well worth the hike, plus you can push on to climb the slopes of Moelfre from here. If mountains are your thing, check out Penygader (35 minutes) and Snowdon (50 minutes), Wales’s highest peak. Got your mountain bike with you? Coed y Brenin Forest Park (half an hour) has eight purpose-build trails catering to all abilities and a skills area to practise your bunny hops, plus hiking paths taking in ruined copper mines, viewpoints and waterfalls. Speaking of which, at Dolgoch Falls (45 minutes), forested trails take you up close and personal to the cascades. At the Italianate-style village of Portmeirion (35 minutes), elegant architecture, pastel-coloured houses and lush subtropical gardens will have you believe you’re in Portofino. Stop for afternoon tea and don’t forget to buy some pottery.
