  • Small site a mile and a half from Benllech village and beach
  • A 20-minute drive from Beaumaris and half an hour from Snowdonia
  • Dog-friendly site with distant mountain views
Beaches, coastal paths and plenty of space to run about – the Isle of Anglesey’s Ysgubor Fadog is pretty heavenly for dogs. If they promise to be well behaved they’re most welcome at this Brynteg site, where the facilities include a special space for them to scamper about in. And for humans? It's all pretty heavenly here too, whether holidaying with hounds or without… The local beach is a splendid sandy one (a mile and a half away in Benllech) and the park’s also within walking distance of rambles on the Anglesey Coastal Path, games of golf and days of fishing or scuba diving. There’s plenty more to fill a fair number of days around Anglesey too (think mountains, ancient mines, castles, boat trips… and more beaches, of course) and back on the mainland, where you can hit Caernarfon or the Snowdonia National Park with a half-hour drive. If you're lucky with the weather, the views of Snowdonia will follow you home so you can admire them while lighting your barbie back on site. All the bits for said barbie can be picked up at the small supermarkets in Benllech or the larger ones in Llangefni (10 minutes away by car). Not in the mood for firelighting? There’s a good handful of pubs, restaurants and cafés in Benllech too. Essentials facilities have been given full attention at the park: a smart new toilet/shower block (with spacious showers and loads of hot water) was opened in 2019, and there are also reliable electrical and free wifi connections.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: The facilities here were excellent and the site owners were very friendly and helpful. This was our first time using a campervan and this site has definitely set the bar really high for other sites that we will use.
The shower/toilet block was clean and warm and there were plenty of large sinks for washing up. The coffee vending machine was a bonus
Even though the site was full it was calm and peaceful and everyone staying there seemed so relaxed, including the red squirrels!

Disliked: Nothing

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Lovely quiet site with clean toilets and free showers (never busy even though we were there in August). No shop on site but there was a coffee machine and a vending machine for snacks. There was also an ice maker and a freezer for your own freezer packs. Our teenager was happy with the free WiFi! We visit Anglesey most years but this was a new site for us and we would highly recommend.

Disliked: Can’t comment on child friendliness as we didn’t have any young children with us.

Local attractions

Once you've spent a bit of time on the sands at Benllech you're not done with beaches, for Anglesey has many more to take in. Red Wharf Bay and Moelfre (both 10 minutes' drive) are good places to start, and it’s certainly worth making the 35-minute drive to Newborough beach to wander through the pine forests and out to lovely Ynys Llandwyn. Beaumaris (20 minutes) has a beach too, but that’s just one of its attractions – the ancient castle, boat trips to Puffin Island and crab fishing from the pier are all popular picks in town. If you'd like to mix up a bit of history and a bit of hiking, head to Parys Mountain (25 minutes) to see the colourful scenery left by the old copper mines. Hikes aplenty can, of course, be had over the Menai Strait in Snowdonia National Park, as can adrenaline-packed days at ZipWorld adventure park or rather more laidback ones puffing along on a steam-powered Welsh Highland Railway ride from Caernarfon. All are about half an hour away by car.
