North Wales Suggestions Please?

[KAM38]

Hi All,
Picked up the Cali last weekend, so raring to make the virgin trip out

Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for some nice sites - we are based in Manchester and i was thinking maybe North Wales way?

Looking for something nice and quiet, toilet / shower facilities, hook up (see how it all works), and ideally not too commercial - a real added bonus would be a fire pit on the pitch?

Any suggestions / reviews would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance....

I've heard a lot of good things about Shell Island http://www.shellisland.co.uk/ It's a bit north of Barmouth near Llanbedr. Seems just what you are looking for. Lots of sandy beaches and a relaxed atmosphere.
There is a list of replies to often asked questions. They don't have hook-ups, but you should be fine for 3-5 days in a Cali, they do allow fire pits as long as they are raised off the grass.
We plan to go there on our next trip away.

Thanks for the suggestions .... Both look great, much appreciated.

We're at Shell Island at present. It's a school holiday week so a lot of people here but there is plenty of space.

Only trouble with lots of people is a percentage of them are irritating. A guy in a diesel Golf left his engine running for about 3 hours yesterday within earshot, when that stopped someone's radio started!

The place is much better when the kids go back

A little site...

big on views... big on hospitality, run by the Jones family (well knock me down with a feather, a family called Jones )...... absolutely lovely.

Mair Jones is lovely, she taught me all the Welsh I know ..... https://www.gwerniago.co.uk

Hi KAM38
We reside in Warrington and are constantly heading to campsites in north wales at the moment.
These three are our favourites so far;
Sunset park Benlech (Anglesey)
Abbey farm campsite (Llangollen)
Black rock sands, beach or campsite (Porthmadog) going here again this weekend it’s that good!

Lakeside campsite near Snowdon. They have a few pitches with hookup. Also have firepits ( you can only burn wood bought on site).

Also have canoehire / launching if wanted. And an on site pizza oven/ seller. Definitely recommended...

That's great, thanks all.... We eventually went to a little place called Nyth Robin in Aberdovey. Great site, lovely owners and really peaceful. It was a little far for a 2 nighter so some of the above will be really useful. The maiden voyage didn't go without some highlights - 2 year old son threw up all over the brand new van on the way, then a Range Rover knocked the wing mirror off ... No point getting too upset.....
