Peaceful farm site in Snowdonia with spectacular sea views
Three miles from the sea; a 35-minute drive from Cadair Idris mountain
A 10-minute drive from the Wales Coast Path, shops and eateries

Follow a bridleway and turn into a rural retreat in the south of Snowdonia… from Nant Madyn Camping, soak up views of the hills and mountains of Meirionnydd and the dazzling Cardigan Bay. A 35-minute drive away from Cadair Idris and three miles from the coast, you’ll be well set for climbing the mountain summit or descending onto the Wales Coast Path and counting off seaside towns and beaches along the way. This friendly farm site is based on a working beef and sheep farm, a mile north of the village of Llanegryn. Things are kept quite basic, so boil spring water to drink from the site and settle in for some sweet wild camping surrounded by the Welsh countryside. The site has chemical toilets with sinks, an outdoor sink with running spring water and a hot-water shower. Firepits can be hired and logs purchased from the site. It's also possible to hire a fridge or freezer compartment during your stay, and the site can provide some basic provisions such as bottled water, milk and limited tinned goods if you forget the essentials. Plus, park right next to your pitch. That way, it's easy to pop over to the car as soon as you hatch your next plan of action… or perhaps put your faith in the signposted paths running off directly from the site. The site is based 10 minutes’ drive away from Tywyn, a seaside town with much to keep you busy. Chug around on the narrow-gauge railway, play in the sand dunes or unwind on the firm-sand beach. In this town, there’s a great selection of shops, plus seaside restaurants and pubs where you can sample seafood at the same time as sea views.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: The hosts were welcoming and very friendly, helpful and informative. The views were spectacular.
Camping on a working farm had a lot of charm and the nights by an open campfire with views of the mountains under the stars was very relaxing. The showers and toilets are basic but perfectly adequate for a camping trip, it was really nice having a hot shower in the morning after a night by the fire.there is a sink for washing up in the open field and the water is from a spring so should be boiled for drinking.
There are plenty of walking routes in the area with information available onsite. The hosts even lent us a map to plan out our routes.
We had a lovely time there and only wish we had more time there.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Lovely Relaxed feel in natural farm setting.
Well kept tidy site and facilities
Polite reception/owners made us feel quite at home
Easy to find via satnav
Optional facilities available e.g. fire pits, fridge and freezer
Short drive away from local towns Tywyn, Fairbourne, Barmouth, Aberdovey etc.
Excellent views across the Welsh landscape (you can even see the sea when the weather is clear)

Disliked: Not a negative point but only thing I would mention is the toilet and shower facilities were a bit minimal (just a few portaloos and a single shower pod unit) but all were well kept and did the job just fine. Didn't bother me, but if you are expecting/used to a shower block etc. this may not be the site for you.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Fantastic views
Peaceful surroundings with walks from the site
Very friendly and welcoming owner
Allowed fires and bbqs

Disliked: Portaloos do the job and were kept clean but could do with lighting and a bin inside. The only bin on site was a small bin by reception.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you very much for your review. We appreciate the feedback.

We will review the lighting around the toilets, we have had some issues finding suitable solar lights.

With regards to bins in the toilets, we do struggle to find space to place bins there, but we will review this.

Kind regards,

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: We had a lovely bank holiday weekend at Nant Madyn . Emma was so friendly and helpful. We were able to use a fridge and buy water which was really useful. The toilets and shower were brilliant. My children loved watching the cows with their calves in the next field. The views from the campsite were stunning only wish we could have stayed for longer. We loved the area, completed the beautiful waterfall walk and had a lovely day at aberdyfi .

Disliked: Nothing.

Local attractions

Hike or bike the day away in the Coed y Brenin Forest Park (40 minutes’ drive). Its tall treetops are just past Cadair Idris (35 minutes), the tallest mountain in south Snowdonia and naturally a great stop for many different types of footpaths, including routes past lakes and a couple of good rock climbing or mountaineering spots. Stop by the Mach Loop (25 minutes) on your way back for the chance to see fighter jets flying by from a group of valleys. Then roll on to the remote Castell y Bere (20 minutes), where a hike through a valley will reach the ruins of a native Welsh castle. Fancy throwing some seaside towns into the mix too? Along Cardigan Bay, Aberdyfi (15 minutes) has a long beach that's popular for sailing and other watersports, an 18-hole golf course and, of course, plenty of shops and restaurants too. For another family-friendly town, Fairbourne (20 minutes) has a beach, arcade and narrow-gauge railway. A little further away, take a day trip to Aberystwyth (an hour). This artsy seaside town is home to a river and beach for watersports and runs regular hillside steam train rides on the Vale of Rheidol Railway.
