Peaceful family-run Llŷn Peninsula campsite
In a quiet village six miles' drive from Aberdaron beach
Modern amenities block on site; pub within 20 minutes' walk

Centrally located on the Llŷn Peninsula is a likely location to be remotely and peacefully set for a Welsh countryside stay, which is what's offer at small and family-run Criw Touring Caravan and Camp Site, in the quiet village of Bryncroes and a short drive from miles of several safe and sandy beaches. Country walks, horse trekking, sailing, fishing, climbing, cycling and more are all easily accessed in the countryside all around, and Snowdonia National Park is within about an hour's drive. If you're more of a seaside sort, Criw is six miles from Aberdaron and 10 from Pwllheli. The site's modern amenities block has separate ladies' and gents areas (each with two toilets and two showers, plus a basin, hand dryer and mirror), and there's also a fresh water supply and a chemical disposal point. Satellite TV and wifi are available, but please note that because of the site's peacefully remote location, the wifi signal is limited and you should bring a receiver for your TV if you want to use it. Criw is about 20 minutes' walk via a quiet country lane from its local village of Sarn, which has a couple of decent pubs (one serving food), a post office/garage and the village shop to sort supplies to bring back for the barbie.

Only showing reviews for the last 30 months.

Nearby farm with cattle and sheep gives a great countryside feel.

Great view to wake up to and see through the caravan window in a morning.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked: This is a lovely little camp site the owner is very easy going and good to have a chat with everything you need is on site hook up electric and water and the waste and toilet is only a short walk away the views are special and whistling sands is only 7 miles up the rd one of the most stunning beaches in the UK for shopping there is a premier about a mile down the rd and they sell most of what you might need if you are lucky on a clear night the stars in the sky are something else overall very easy going relaxed camp and great links for the rest of the peninsula give it a go you wont regret it

Disliked: Having to leave back to work haha.

Liked: Nice Quite Location, Views Stunning Drainage on a Grass pitch is the best i have seen

Disliked: Wifi advertised but none available , No washing up Facility's but was advertised Only one sink in the men's shower block and one in the Ladies Nice site but very Very Exposed to the weather due to it's location The Big one !!! As a responsible dog owner part of being a responsible dog owner is picking your dogs Poo up ! There were 2 dogs that ever day came round our Van and pooed , I had to pick it up as i could not leave it where it was There was a Jack Russel and a French bull dog , luckily they were both very friendly as my Griffon was upset with the being in and around my Awning. My Griffon alerted to the dogs present before we saw them Some one else has commented in a review they are the "Site Owners Dogs", If you have site rules stating pick up dog poo then the owner should do the same Keep them in a fenced of Garden area I feel sorry for people who do not have dogs having to cope with dog poo around the field

From the manager: I don't think you've been on other sites around here, where they have 4 showers, 2 sinks, and over 40 caravans. Maybe you should pop in to one some day, and have a look. As the site is being upgraded, it will have washing up facilities for next season. I apologize to you for the damn dogs, but they don't belong to me. The local council have been informed.

Great site!

Liked: The quietness of the site. It is small and well maintained/cleaned. The best showers I’ve experienced on a campsite!

Disliked: A dog was walking free around the site. It was friendly but we could get it to go away.

Liked: Lovely owner he was very chatty and the toilets were immaculate. The location was lovely and remote but not too far from towns and had lovely scenery

From the manager: HI Kat. Sorry I didn't see you and family before you left. The weather didn't help much during your visit. Hopefully you will come again, later in the year when the weather is more favourable. Many thanks for your lovely review. Take care. Rgds. Ron.

Local attractions

The main town on the peninsula, Pwllheli, is about 20 scenic minutes away by car and comes with beaut sandy beaches, a leisure centre, marina, cinema, supermarkets, bus depot and a railway station, as well as an 18-hole golf course and the means to arrange both fishing and boating. Fishing, boating and a golf course of the same size are at neighbouring Abersoch too, also within a short drive. It's a popular place with younger holidaymakers, who come for jetskiing, powerboat racing, wakeboarding and other watersports; the famed Wakestock Festival is held here annually. This is also spectacular hiking land, so ditch the car for a day and have a go at the Llŷn Coastal Path stretch from Pwllheli to Abersoch in one direction and Pwllheli to Criccieth – and then on to Porthmadog – in the other.
