A slice of paradise
Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Jamie and Sylvie have created an absolutely wonderful campsite in the most stunningly beautiful of locations. It's their first season in operation and they've got everything right straight from the start!
The field sweeps gently (almost level) down from their lovely renovated farmhouse to give the most perfect view of the Yr Eifl mountains, which are just a couple of miles away and feel within touching distance.
There are no formally marked pitches, just acres of room for everyone to spread out and pick their view of choice, or cluster together in family/friends groups. Having stayed 9 nights I saw the site at both it's quietists (just me) and it's busiest ("full", I think) and it felt just as peaceful and relaxed either way.
The mature hedgerows around the site support loads of wildlife. I had a regular hedgehog visitor and birdlife was plentiful, including a large flock of goldfinches that were ever present in the adjoining field (lots of teasel in seed). The budliah meant lots of butterflies too.
The facilities are great, especially considering the off-grid nature. They are kept immaculately clean at all times and the composting toilets are emptied and cleaned several times daily. The showers are roomy and have a great agricultural feel to them, but then you are showering in barn! Hot water for pot washing is plenty.
To get to the point - GO THERE

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We loved our stay at Tyn on the Llyn. It’s a beautiful, peaceful site with amazing views.
Jamie and Sylvie are so welcoming and clearly take real pride and care in creating a great experience for their guests.
The facilities were spotless throughout our entire stay, showers were hot and we really appreciated there being plenty of hooks to hang clothes and towels on! There were fairy lights in the showers, always plenty of toilet roll, hand soap, shower gel and washing up liquid - lovely touches which made for a great experience.
We will definitely be back and are looking forward to seeing how the little trees are growing as the site matures!
