Mountain campsites in Llŷn Peninsula AONB

·

On the Llŷn Peninsula AONB, mountainous camping means waking up to rugged slopes and views that stretch to the Irish Sea. You’ll find over 220 tent pitches tucked into valleys, near riverbanks, and on windswept hillsides. Expect basics covered: toilets, showers, and a green light for campfires. Fishing, horseback riding, and swimming all sit close to hand—lakes, streams, and bridleways criss-cross the area. Average price hovers around £91 per night, with spots dipping as low as £10 if you’re watching your budget. Locals rate Henbant Permaculture Farm + Camp (172 reviews) for its working-farm feel, Bwch Yn Uchaf (57 reviews) for riverside pitches, and Graig Wen - Wild Snowdonia Escapes (53 reviews) for wild trails and proper mountain air. Rubbish bins and facilities are reliable, but bring sturdy boots—it’s real hill country.

A stay in the beautiful Welsh countryside, with greenery on every side and stunning views towards hills in the distance, but still close to beaches and seaside towns… sound like a dream holiday spot? Penuwch Inn Caravan and Camping, 10 minutes’ drive from Tregaron in West Wales, may very well be your spot. The area around Penuwch Inn has plenty of walking and cycling routes for anyone who wants to explore the region (ask your friendly hosts Nicky and Julian for tips). Pick up a map before you arrive, then disappear for the day on a mountain bike, making your way along the Ceredigion Coast Path or the banks of Afon Teifi – the second longest river in Wales – or Afon Aeron. If you prefer two legs to two wheels, you can pick up the Ceredigion Coast Path from Llanrhystud, a 15-minute drive from the site. For drinks, there's a bar on site open between Thursday and Sunday. For food, meanwhile, you can pick up some supplies for the barbecue at Tregaron. And then? Relax in the evenings by turning your eyes to the stars, soaking up the dark skies above the site to see some of the wonders of the Milky Way…
