  • CAMC members- and adults-only site on Anglesey’s western coast
  • Holyhead 20 minutes’ drive; Plas Newydd House and Gardens 35 minutes
  • Dogs welcome; access to the beach; on the Anglesey Coastal Path
Are you a ‘have Dryrobe, will travel’ type of person? Do you choose your holiday destinations based on how easy it is to access the beach and whether you can go wild swimming? If so, consider making your way to Perllan Penrhyn Certificated Location, a Caravan and Motorhome Club site on a sheltered bay on the west coast of Anglesey. A sandy beach is within walking distance here (literally just a matter of crossing the road), so you can start each day with an invigorating dip in the brine, as you watch the ferries roll in and out of the terminal at Holyhead (20 minutes’ drive), or have a pre-dinner paddleboard excursion as the sun sets over the water. And there are more benefits to staying at Perllan Penrhyn, starting with the distinctly peaceful vibe. This could be down to its remote location, on a working beef and sheep farm – or maybe it’s because the site welcomes only adult guests. No screaming children here, thank you very much. It’s also good news for those who prefer hiking to swimming: Perllan Penrhyn sits right on the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path, so be sure to include epic strolls with far-reaching views of the Irish Sea (maybe with your faithful four-legged companion at your heel…) on your schedule. The nearest shop is a 10-minute drive away, just off the A5025, in the village of Llanfachraeth; if you’re after restaurants, head into Valley (10 minutes) or cross the Cymyran Strait on to Holy Island (20 minutes).

What customers say

This neat, quiet spot gets rave reviews for its awesome sea views and top spot, a stone's throw from gorgeous beaches and the Coastal Path. Guests love the big, flat pitches (many with EHU/water). Owners are super friendly, especially Gwen. Mostly peaceful, though farm noise sometimes happens. Elsan point upgraded with a longer hose after suggestions.

Liked Ideal for us, couple with two dogs. Very clean, we don’t need toilet or shower so worked for us. Great being on a working farm and a beach literally across the road, who else can offer this

Disliked Nothing apart from WiFi had an issue which was waiting for an IT engineer to visit, so had been addressed. Good 5g so didn’t need it

Liked Next to beach , had electric , peaceful

Disliked We went here last year and gave a 10 however this time it was £5 more than last time .. the hose next to the elson point was still split (same last year) unable to rinse the toilet properly without flowing water. The elson point itself was disgusting . On the pitch grey waste dump overflows as soon as you start emptying which was the same last year.

Local attractions

Holy Island has a spectacular coastline as well as several ancient sites – from Caer y Twr, the remains of a mountaintop Iron Age fort, to the imposing Penrhos Feilw Standing Stones. Then there are the early 19th-century Goleudy Ynys Lawd lighthouse, on a rocky islet reached via a narrow bridge, and Breakwater Country Park, where you might observe swooping peregrine falcons. On the eastern coast of Anglesey is National Trust - Plas Newydd House and Gardens (35 minutes’ drive), with a famed large mural by Rex Whistler, a rhododendron garden and splendid views of Eryri National Park (Snowdonia). Cross the Menai Strait, and you’re in Bangor (40 minutes), a lively university city where you can take a leisurely stroll along the Victorian Garth Pier, which stretches right into the strait. On the outskirts of Bangor, National Trust - Penrhyn Castle & Garden was built in the Victorian era to resemble a medieval fortress.
