Tyn-yr-Onnen Farm and Campsite Reviews

Snowdon overnight camp

Access track was a bit bumpy, could do with resurfacing in places. Facilities were great, showers were hot and powerful. Close enough to Snowdon and 10 min walk from local pub.

Site's response

James, thanks for your review. I agree about the road, but it belongs to the local authority, so there is nothing we can do other than complain to them. Hope to see you another time. Regards, Len.

Amazing host

The host was super helpful and kind. The showers were super clean, and really nice and hot / powerful!!! Just what I needed after a long day hiking on the mountains!

Great site for Snowdon

Excellent site with great facilities and only 15 minutes drive from Snowdon.

Lovely stay!

Arrived later than we planned and the owner called to make sure we were still en route and to reassure us that it was no problem. The owner was lovely! The showers were great too! Everything we needed for the one night. Thank you :)

Beautiful, little campsite in a perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay here despite the weather. We arrived with 4 other families and had a lovely large pitch out of the way. The facilities were great, with clean toilets and hot showers. The campsite has a small play park our children enjoyed. The location is perfect for little and big hikes, we did the Elephant Mountain and it was absolutely stunning. It is also close to a pub which serves good pub meals, we really enjoyed it. Also have to mention the staff who were very friendly and helpful. 10 out of 10 for us. We will be back.

Awesome mountain views

Great site with clean hot showers . Awesome mountain views, and great staff, very helpfull. Great location for Snowdonia.

Excellent welcome and support

We only had a one night stay on this well equipped site in a hired VW camper. All facilities great and the welcome excellent. Unfortunately, we woke to a flat tyre. Big thanks to Darren who leapt into action to help change the wheel. Nothing too much trouble. Also recommended a local tyre fitter who would be able to sort the issue out without too much of a wait. This site is in a beautiful spot and well worth a longer stay.

Amazing family camp

We have just come back and it was amazing. Staff were so helpful, pitch was definitely large, not all large pitches are big enough for our tent. Fire pits to hire, spotless bathroom and cleaning facilities. Our 6 year old and 2 year old loved the play park and the animals there too. Lots of other families and dogs. Perfect location for hiking, railway trips, beach and so much more. We will definitely be returning! Excellent value for money too with fabulous views to top it all off.

Lovely site

Lovely little campsite and would definitely recommend. Only 2 minor issues. One being the road to the campsite is tight & bumpy and two, there's nothing in the village. The highlight was feeding the donkeys on site.

One night stay

Only stayed the 1 night, but the pitch was more than adequate. Location was great and everything was clean. Perfect if you are there to hike Snowdon.

Awful access lane

The access to this site is absolutely horrific. The lane down to the site is the narrowest I have ever seen, with a stone wall on either side and overgrown branches. We had millimetres on either side of our motorhome from the walls and had no choice but to brush past the branches and scuff up the sides. Unfortunately, we had to leave the following morning as we were not prepared to risk damaging our motorhome driving up and down the access lane daily. On a positive, the setting is lovely if you want somewhere remote, and we enjoyed taking our little one to see the donkeys.

Great site

Great site and location, would stay again.

Lovely site

Really well run by the friendly owners. They clearly take a lot of pride in their site and facilities. Lovely views in all directions and very quiet. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Great campsite with friendly staff

My partner and I stayed here mid September and the campsite was lovely. We had lots of space for the tent as well as my German shepherd. Great walks nearby and it was lovely to watch the animals on the hill from the tent. Toilets and showers were both very clean, and always stocked with supplies. Utility and fridge/freezer. The people running the site were all very friendly and helpful, have a few bits in the shop as well as some homegrown goodies. If you need more bits, there's a small convince store about 20min walk. Also a lovely meal and some drinks at the pub, about a 15min walk away.

Lovely

Lovely site, lovely staff and close enough to the local village with pubs restaurants etc. Close to all the mountains.

Lovely campsite in a great location

We had a great 2 night stay at this campsite. The location was perfect for walking Snowdon and paddle boarding in the area. The pitches are well spread and the facilities were really well looked after. The reception is well stocked and there is information boards for nearby walks etc. We would highly recommend staying here!

Lovely staff and a beautiful site

The staff were really friendly and gave us a tour of the facilities when we arrived. They also make their own honey and sell eggs from their chickens and ducks and they got us some fresh duck eggs to buy on our last day. The ground of the campsite was a bit rocky in places so it was hard to get a few of the tent pegs in, but we managed. It was a beautiful location with a great view of Mount Snowdon and other mountains. I would definitely stay here again.

Base for Snowdon trip

Gorgeous campsite in stunning surroundings.

Lovely and peaceful, amazing views

Lovely campsite, great location for exploring Snowdonia and Angelsey. Wonderful hosts (even though we were asked to be quiet! Sorry 🤫). Lovely little pub a 15 minute walk from the site. Gorgeous mushrooms, and advice on how to cook them. Breathtaking views of the mountains. Even let us store the van once packed away, so we could enjoy last day on the beach.

Perfect stay

Would absolutely come here again. The facilities were amazing, hot showers, toilets and utility room open 24/7. The hosts were so lovely and helpful, can't thank them enough. The only issue I have is that someone decided to move my electrical cable from my assigned station and attach it to somewhere else (not the site's fault, but poor etiquette from fellow campers!) However, doesn't deter from this incredible site. The views were absolutely breathtaking!! And we could hire a fire pit (we did, thank you) as well as buy fresh farm produce. We bought some honey made on the farm. It's an incredible offering and one we cannot wait to come back to. Next time though we will be staying for a few nights to make the most of what is on offer. Thank you 😊

Brilliant stay

Really enjoyed myself, the location is outstanding and the site is very clean. Staff really helpful. I will be coming back again and would recommend this site to others.

Beautiful spot

Highly recommend, good facilities, welcoming owners and staff, beautiful setting with good sized pitches. All in all, even with the wet weather, we had a lovely break here and I’d happily return.

Brilliant place and super friendly

After a severely damaged tent on our first night due to a storm, Helen, Len and the campsite team went above and beyond to help us and find alternative accommodation, basically saving our summer holiday! We were so grateful and found everyone very friendly and helpful the whole time. Such a lovely location too with great walks nearby and excellent facilities.

Fantastic

Best camping experience I've had.

Base for exploring Snowdonia

The campsite had amazing views, the owner was very welcoming on arrival. We had booked a pitch well in advance for a motorhome and the first choice of pitch we were offered wasn't ideal as right by the toilets and on a slope, so the owner gave us a much better pitch which was flat and room to sit out with table/chairs. We could only stop on that pitch for one night though as booked out for our second night so had to move onto another pitch the next day. It was a very busy site for its size so sometimes had to wait to use toilets/showers but it was August. The facilities for the kids were great and they loved the donkeys and made friends whilst at the play park. There were also lots of walks to do from the site so for hikers a great base but also to take a family walk on a nice day or an evening stroll, it was ideal.
