What customers say

Pen Y Bont Caravan Park is praised for its excellent, modern facilities, immaculately clean shower and toilet blocks, and friendly, helpful staff. The site boasts a beautiful location with spacious pitches, a short walk from Bala Lake and the town centre. Guests highlight the peaceful atmosphere, well-maintained grounds, and convenient on-site shop. While generally highly recommended, some reviews mention road noise on certain pitches and occasional issues with WiFi.

James Q.

Little Green shepherd's hut

Liked The site is exceptionally clean, including the shower and toilet block. The staff are always polite, happy and helpful. The insite shop has a decent range of supplies, with the main town only a short walk or drive away should you need anything else.

Disliked Absolutely nothing. I would happily book here again.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you James so much and so glad that you had a good time with us. The little Green Hut is very popular and is a good place to have a proper chill!. We look forward to seeing you back here.

Brian S.

Fully-serviced hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked This is a lovely place to visit. The campsite is well maintained and near Bala lake.

Disliked Pitch 12 was too close to other motorhomes that had an awning. They took up a lot of space. We heard every noise from others. So it was not as peaceful as the last time we were here.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you Brian for taking the time to leave us a few comments and glad you had a good time despite not being as peaceful this time round. When you next visit , give us a ring and we will get you onto a larger pitch.

Fully-serviced hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked Lovely site, even though it was a busy time of year it was a peaceful stay on pitch 11 in the Gnoll. Very friendly and helpful staff and we really enjoyed our staff and can’t wait to come back. Perfect location for the lake only 5 mins walk and an easy walk into town.

Derw 2 bedroom safari tent (pet friendly)

Liked From the moment we arrived everyone was so helpful. We were able to get into our tent early , we stayed in Drew and to say it had everything and more than we expected . We did jot expect hot water nor a telly ( which we did not use) the campsite is very clean and the shower block is the best we have ever seen , the area so beautiful and lots to do around. Really recommend use by the butchers you can order from . We walked into the town and got the meat straight from the butchers , the town has everything you need and some lovely little coffee shops . The whole holiday was perfect and already booking for next year along with our daughter/ son in law and grandchildren . Thank you for such a wonderful stay and for a fantastic campsite see you all again soon

Local attractions

For those days where you can’t be bothered to walk too far, it’s very handy that the station for the narrow-gauge Bala Lake Railway is just five minutes’ walk away. Views of the water are a given, but count the mountains too: Arenig Fawr, Aran Fawddwy and Aran Benllyn are visible on the route. You may have your sights set on climbing Wales’ tallest mountain, perhaps. If you’re not climbing up Snowdon (an hour's drive) yourself, you might want to take the Snowdon Mountain Railway (an hour and five minutes), which has been making its ascent for over 100 years. A less strenuous trail than the Snowdon climb is the Mawddach Trail, which runs for just under 10 miles from Dolgellau (half an hour), crossing over the gorgeous Barmouth railway bridge on the other end. Coed y Brenin Forest Park (35 minutes) has plenty of trails too, through thick forest this time. You can take them on by mountain bike, standard bicycle or on foot – and there’s bike hire at the forest park.
