  • Family site two miles from Barmouth
  • Sea views on site; short walk from Talybont station
  • Access to facilities of sister site including swimming pool
Settle in for sea views from several corners of the site at Tyddyn Goronwy Camping Park in Gwynedd, in the seaside village of Tal-y-Bont and a couple of miles from the beaut beach at Barmouth. Pods and pitches here are flanked by sea and mountain views, and are within easy walking distance of the village, which has a takeaway and a riverside pub. Even closer is Talybont station, a couple of minutes' walk away and handy for outings to Barmouth beach or north to the peaks of Snowdonia. Showers, toilets and a washing-up area are available on site. The pitch price at Tyddyn Goronwy also includes a free leisure pass to its sister park Sunnysands Caravan Park, a short drive away, to use its heated indoor pool, café, fish and chip shop and other facilities – and you might want to stick around for the spectacular beachfront sunsets too.

What customers say

Great location near beach & amenities, with good transport links. Friendly staff. Clean pods. Some find restrooms basic, needing better upkeep. Sister site access is a plus for families.

peter h.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Nice, well kept site with level pitches and within walking distance of the beach. Also 10 minute drive from Barmouth.

Disliked No hot water one morning for showers and washing up although it was fixed quite quickly.
There was a group of 10 people who played loud music until well after midnight.
Showers and toilets were clean but showers look tired and in need of some tlc mainly due to the presence of mould

Recommend to friends Visit again

Highly recommend and we will definitely be back

Lynne A.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Very quiet site. Excellent location for the train... just a 5 minute walk. Facilities always clean and tidy. Lovely town centre pub but not much else though we like it like that. Good for coastal walk. Had a choice of pitches and the views are lovely. Warden was friendly and helpful regarding walks

Disliked Wi-fi connection isn't good but to be fair this doesn't bother us.
Clean facilities ... not 5 star but usable and I'm fussy

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked Big site. I had a good pitch with the strong winds and rain I had a tree and a wall to help shield me.
Great owners and very good knowledge.
Right next to the station, so was handy to leave the car behind. Very cheap as well.

Disliked Only one sink to do washing up which sometimes there was a que.

Local attractions

To Barmouth first, of course: its position on the north Wales coast surrounded by Snowdonia National Park makes it a popular and pretty place to visit – and the huge beach is pretty special to see as well. Away from the coast (eventually), a wide range of activities is available around Tyddyn Goronwy Camping Park, from cycling to hiking to pony trekking – or strap on lots of energy and tackle the Snowdon and Cadair Idris mountain ranges a short distance away. A chuffing good way to see the spectacular scenery of north Wales is on one of its small steam trains: the nearest to Tyddyn Goronwy are the Fairbourne Steam Railway just outside Barmouth and the Ffestiniog Railway about 10 miles away.
