Trwyn yr Wylfa Camping Site Reviews

Nice basic clean site with room for slight improvement

The wet weather didn't help our visit. The hard standing was 10mm slate chipping which ended up everywhere and we were forever sweeping the caravan out. Accessibility facilities were shared with families in hubs, which isn't ideal as the pods are a feature of the site and everyone wants to use them. Lack of hand rails etc in disabled facilities was noticeable. The site was extremely clean, as were the facilities. There's a lack of things for children to do. But, the site seems to be a progressive project. The views at beautiful and the sunset is as good as anywhere in the world. Overall for us, not a bad site, just lacking facilities.

Thank you so much we will be back and loved the stay.

Swift basecamp

Excellent site with a great location and dog friendly. Clean toilets and showers with 2 separate family pods, also with showers and toilets - very unique 👌 The owners (or site managers) were very helpful and friendly. All in all, a lovely site and would definitely recommend.

Good location with good facilities

Good location, easy walk into Penmaenmawr with its cafes, shops and amazing beach. Also the many mountain paths directly from the campsite. Easy access to buses and trains to local towns, Conwy, Llandudno etc which was great. The only disappointment was the gravel pitch with electric we were allocated. We felt that the pitch was little more than a gravel driveway with a mud patch alongside, not what we were expecting. Great views from the site however and we would return to enjoy more of the surrounding area.

Site's response

I am glad to hear you enjoyed the glorious views we have from site and that the location was great for exploring North Wales. Unfortunately, you didn't mention anything and we could have looked at alternative pitches. The weather has been very challenging and as the site will be closing for the season, we will be carrying out site maintained and reseeding pitches.

Non electric camping pitch

A lovely peaceful site, with long distance views. The facilities are cleaned regularly to a high standard and include several family/ easy access bathrooms, hair dryer, washer, indoor & outdoor washing up sinks. Secure dog exercise field available. Slight issue with the pitch was that it sloped downhill.

Great site

Great stay. Amazing views. Site well looked after. Looking forward to returning.

Our stay

Very nice campsite, with great views and quiet.

Beautiful location

What a lovely location. We had green hills one side, the ocean the other side, we watched the sunset and then the stars came out at night. Beautiful. The toilets and showers were spotless and so was the site. All the campers were polite and tidy. Ideal for a quiet getaway.

Fabulous stay, thank you

We will definitely be staying again.

Lovely campsite

Lovely stay at a very well maintained campsite in a beautiful location. The facilities were spotless and the pitch was flat and gave us plenty of space. Will definitely return in the future 😊

Fabulous views, good clean facilities

Friendly welcome, clean site. Clear rules. Lots of takeaway options, 15 min walk to a few shops, co-op antique shops, book shops and a museum. Beach is about a five minute walk from the shops, so twenty minutes from site. Good beach with toilets and a café shop. We misplaced an important item and the staff were really helpful and checked in on seeing us later in the day. The views are amazing, lots of walks! Facilities I used were all of good standard and clean. Geat showers, great drinking water and several outdoor sinks for washing up. There's also a washer/dryer, hairdryer, charging lockers and freezers, dog washing facilities and places to tie your dogs while using facilities. You will need change to use some of these things. Only mild inconveniences were the noise from the road, but we expected this might be the case and with ear plugs, it's fine. I'd also recommend if you're in a tent, to make sure you've got a thick ground sheet.

Amazing views and friendly site

Best campsite for views I have been to. Mountain ⛰️ on one side and Irish Sea 🌊 on the other, can't be bad!

Had a lovely stay

Had a lovely stay, only two little bits that I feel could have been better. Toilets maybe up the top of the field, I stayed on pitch 42. Also campervans only on the flat pitches? Apart from that the warden helped us with little ramps to straighten us out. Lovely and clean, lovely owners, lovely place. Thank you 😊

Very good site

Very friendly staff. Site was very clean. Good views. Pitch was just right for the VW camper.

Great facilities

Brilliant campsite with everything you need within walking distance. Great walking field on site for our two dogs.

Campsite

This was a first camping trip for my 10year old granddaughter, I couldn't have picked a better place. Although the pitches are not 100% level, the actual site made up for that with stunning views. The facilities are clean, as is the whole site with lovely hot showers. The owner is very welcoming. The beach is a 15 minute walk, but for this, who aren't very good a walking, I would recommend taking a drive down. I found it very difficult on the way back as some very steep inclines, and I had to stop and rest a fair few times. Overall, I would definitely recommend the site and myself and my granddaughter will be visiting again.

Wow with a capital W!

Wow! The view alone, wow. What a place! We stayed here 2 adults and 3 kids and it was the best stay we have had so far! This site has everything you could possibly need for a perfect stay. The showers and toilets were better than what we have seen in hotels! The family rooms were a huge hit for us, super impressed. We saw them being cleaned every day! Charging phones, kettle, washing machine and dryer, freezers, indoor and outdoor cleaning areas, dog cleaning areas, you name it, they had it! We were greeted by who I believe were the owners. Explained exactly where to go, what to do. Handed a very detailed map with directions to the beach, shops, numbers we may need during our stay. When we got to the pitch we chose, we had trouble getting up the grass covered slight hill. Ended up getting stuck, everyone came out and helped push the car back to the stone path, went back to reception and the gentleman (sorry didn't catch your name) didn't hesitate to come and help show me how to park outside our pitch! Thankyou!! We chose a pitch next to trees and stones which the kids absolutely loved! There was a spar about 20 min walk for us with littles, but probably about 10 mins if walking at normal pace. Beach, again probably about 10 min walk. There is plenty of leaflets for takeaways, restaurants, days out etc. We ordered a takeaway, reception helped guide them to where we were staying so even got it delivered to our tent which was lovely! (We were waiting for the call to walk down) The only 'issues' we had, which is not the parks fault at all, is that the toilets/showers were quite far away from us, so definitely need something for inside the tent if you have little people who can't hold it for the 5 min walk. How could this site improve? Honestly I don't see much if any improvement at all. It's a stunning place in a stunning area. Perhaps some sort of outdoor play area for the kids - there was a perfect area for one. But the pitch we chose with the rocks was enough play for ours 3, even the baby was trying to climb! Brilliant. Overall, we absolutely loved our stay. Will 100% be back soon and already told family and friends who will be booking too! Can't wait to be back!

Perfect site

Beautiful, clean, quiet site. Owners were amazing. Absolutely loved it. Views were spectacular.

Perfectly located, clean, family friendly site!

Could have easily stayed another week! Perfectly located, peaceful, well managed site with lovely clean facilities and breathtaking views.

Amazing views, great sunsets, quiet and great facilities

Non-electric pitch. Views are amazing. Family/accessibility showers and toilets are an added bonus. Very quiet. Other campers were always considerate. Great for dog owners. 10 min walk to shops. 15 min to beach. Very close drive to Conwy and Llandudno. Fantastic stay.

Disappointing

Spent 6 nights in an electric hook up site SP2. The electric hook up sites are obviously pre allocated and being August, the site was busy. Our pitch was in a dip at the bottom of the hill at the entrance to the field. There was no sea view, unless you stood up to peer over the road and hedge when you could see a glimpse of sea. The pitch would be ideal for someone who wanted to be near the toilet block but be warned, the bins are directly behind this pitch, so you can hear people throwing their recycled bottles into the bins at all hours, as well as cars and people going past into the field. Dogs were being walked behind the pitch into the dog walking field. When we gave feedback to the owner halfway into our stay and request some money back for the pitch, which was priced the same as the rest of the lovely quiet pitches with sea views, she was defensive and rude refusing to listen to our feedback and telling me I'd left it too late to complain. On a positive note, the toilets are clean and the wardens were friendly and helpful. Overall, disappointing and overpriced for the pitch we were allocated. I would suggest that if you would like fantastic sea views, you may need to contact in advance to request this.

Site's response

After staying on site for few nights, you contacted us wanting to move to a different pitch and shared your complaint with us. You asked to move onto a pitch that became vacant, explaining you were not happy with your pitch. When we looked to the alternative pitch which you had seen vacant, it was only available for 1 night, as we had guests that had requested 2 pitches together. I explained that unfortunately, the pitch was only available for 1 night due to this situation and you were welcome to move onto it, but it would be for 1 night. You explained that you were not happy with the pitch and wanted money off. I explained that it was a shame you hadn't mentioned this when you arrived or before staying for several nights. You were then offered two alternative pitches - an electric pitch, or if you would have preferred, a non electric and to choose your own pitch. Although 2 options were given, you were still looking for money off. I explained this isn't how we operate and suggested that if you were not happy with the pitch and the alternative pitches given, that you could find a more suitable site and we could refund the remainder of your stay, as we had a list of guests wanting to come on site so knew we could resell. You said you would consider the options. However, we didn't hear back and you decided to stay on site.

Beautiful site

The location is stunning. We had the mountain backdrop behind us (which we climbed) and a sea view in front of us. The location was great for us, we travelled to somewhere new every day. The facilities were great, clean. Loads of showers and I particularly liked the spacious family showers so I could be with my children for showers, in the past we have been cramped in a cubicle but not here. It's really quiet and peaceful. We loved it so much.

Great place to stay

Lovely place to stay, great views with clean facilities.

Beautiful site

We stayed for 5 nights. The site is beautiful and well looked after, facilities very clean and also well looked after. 3 nights were great as the weather was really nice, but 2 nights the wind was horrendous and struggled to keep the tent only because of how open it was with no protection. But the scenery is spectacular and it really is a lovely site, just got caught out by the weather.

Perfect views!

A little disappointed with the pitch, muddy and not suitable for separate awning/gazebo due to the ground being on a slope. Staff were very helpful and offered us a spare ground sheet to cover the wet, muddy ground that we gladly accepted. Very clean campsite with stunning views!
