  • Family site two miles from Barmouth
  • Sea views on site; short walk from Talybont station
  • Access to facilities of sister site including swimming pool
Settle in for sea views from several corners of the site at Tyddyn Goronwy Camping Park in Gwynedd, in the seaside village of Tal-y-Bont and a couple of miles from the beaut beach at Barmouth. Pods and pitches here are flanked by sea and mountain views, and are within easy walking distance of the village, which has a takeaway and a riverside pub. Even closer is Talybont station, a couple of minutes' walk away and handy for outings to Barmouth beach or north to the peaks of Snowdonia. Showers, toilets and a washing-up area are available on site. The pitch price at Tyddyn Goronwy also includes a free leisure pass to its sister park Sunnysands Caravan Park, a short drive away, to use its heated indoor pool, café, fish and chip shop and other facilities – and you might want to stick around for the spectacular beachfront sunsets too.

Great spot, close to the beach with awesome sea and mountain views. Staff are super friendly. Toilets and showers are clean but a bit basic. Pods are cosy and warm. Peaceful place, good value for families.

Andrew F.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked The place was perfect, well kept lovely mix of camping pod, grass pitches with and without power and camper-van / caravan hard standings.

Beautiful sone wall surrounded most of the site, lovely clean showers and toilet block, protected by coded locks.

Security barrier with pin to enter camping area, and two sets of bins in walled areas.

Lots of places to eat onsite and off, lovely snack shack near beach, serving, breakfast muffins, coffee and amazing ice creams.

All topped off by a view of the sea, but unfortunately not quite the beach 🏖️ only a short 10min walk away, and dog friendly too.

Disliked The road that accesses both the camp site, caravan parks, and beach is very narrow in many places and car do tend to speed down the road, so with the dog on several occasions felt vehicles ignored people on road too much.

We took the edge of a short walk access to the beach and wonderful coastline.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Quiet and peaceful plenty of open space for the children to run around and play. Clean and today camping pitches well spaced out. The warden was nice and friendly and welcoming. It’s nice and close to the beach. Only a short drive to Barmouth. Over all this is a lovely little camp in a great location great for family’s who are just looking for a nice cozy camp. One thing to note which is not a camp issue of any sort and not anything they could do is that phone signal is almost nonexistent again nothing that the camp itself has anything to do with it’s just the area and a lot of wales is the same Iv found.

Disliked Showers could be a little cleaner but maybe I just went in at the wrong time of day as my dad said the men’s were perfectly clean. Only one sink for pot washing and it’s not under cover.

Local attractions

To Barmouth first, of course: its position on the north Wales coast surrounded by Snowdonia National Park makes it a popular and pretty place to visit – and the huge beach is pretty special to see as well. Away from the coast (eventually), a wide range of activities is available around Tyddyn Goronwy Camping Park, from cycling to hiking to pony trekking – or strap on lots of energy and tackle the Snowdon and Cadair Idris mountain ranges a short distance away. A chuffing good way to see the spectacular scenery of north Wales is on one of its small steam trains: the nearest to Tyddyn Goronwy are the Fairbourne Steam Railway just outside Barmouth and the Ffestiniog Railway about 10 miles away.
