  • Small, well-kept Anglesey tourer site with Eryri National Park views
  • Beaumaris Castle, Red Wharf Bay and Pentraeth Beach 10 minutes’ drive
  • Easy-to-access, spacious gravel pitches for motorhomes and caravans
Tain y Coed Campsite is a well-maintained, back-to-basics tourer and motorhomes site 10 minutes’ drive from the Britannia Bridge on the Isle of Anglesey. Thanks to direct access to the A5025, it makes a handy base whether you’re looking to head off into Eryri (was Snowdonia) National Park or spend time discovering hidden corners of the island itself. The site is adjacent to farming fields – home to sheep and rabbits – and has generous-sized gravel pitches for touring caravans and motorhomes. Each one has pretty views across the fields to the mountains of Eryri – especially dramatic on sunny days. Simple amenities include a drinking-water tap near the entrance of the site and a chemical deposit point for water waste. There’s also a large bin provided for rubbish disposal, which is collected and recycled. Well-behaved dogs are welcome but should be kept on a lead at all times when on site, due to the close proximity of sheep. The site owners kindly ask that you clean up after your dog as well please. Need to restock? Pick up essentials from the small convenience store in Pentraeth village (five minutes’ drive). Alternatively, grab a takeaway Chinese or try out the pub, particularly popular for Sunday lunch.

Liked ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – The Best Campsite in Wales!

Tain Coed is hands-down the best campsite we’ve ever stayed at. It’s a small, family-run site with everything you need – clean drinking water, bins, and waste disposal – but what truly makes it special are the people.

From the moment we arrived, the whole family made us feel not just welcome at their campsite, but at their home. They showed us around their farm, played games with the kids, and went above and beyond to make sure we felt like part of the family.

We were blown away by their kindness. When our van went into limp mode with a DPF fault, Andy was outside with his laptop and OBD cable trying regens to help us get back on the road. You just don’t get that kind of care anywhere else!

At only £18 a night for up to 6 people and 2 dogs, it’s incredible value – easily the cheapest and friendliest site we’ve come across. Whether you’re planning to climb Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa), road trip around Anglesey, or just enjoy a peaceful stay in North Wales, this is the place to be.

We honestly can’t thank the family enough for everything. From us at 2inacan, this is a huge shoutout – you made our trip unforgettable. 🏕🐶

👉 If you want a campsite with heart, amazing people, and a true Welsh welcome – get yourself to Tain Coed. They deserve every success.

Thank you again, we appreciate you all so much! 😊

Disliked Honestly? Nothing at all. This place is spot on in every way — facilities, location, atmosphere, and especially the people. We genuinely couldn’t fault it.
Don’t forget the view of snowdonia mountains 🏔️ absolutely beautiful 🤩

Larnswick U.

Primitive gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked An absolutely perfect site for our style of traveling. Very quiet with great view's, and lots of bird life to watch also.

The local village has a great spar shop with cheap fuel and a couple of nice pub/eateries.

Access to the site is brilliant just off the main road, but the pitches are far enough away as to be undisturbed by road noise.

The owner was very welcoming and explained all we needed to know.

Facilities are minimal but fresh water filling and toilet emptying is available. That is all we personally need so fantastic.

To get to and from the mainland is very simple with only a 10 minute drive along the A5025.

We are looking to return in the very near future.
