Glamping near Tywyn with swimming

Tiny Tywyn may not be as well known as the old resort towns along the West Wales coast, such as Barmouth and Aberdovey, but this seaside spot in southern Snowdonia is absolute dynamite when it comes to coastal camping.

2 nights at Over-the-Moon Luxury Shepherds Hut

Perfect getaway for me and my daughter. The hut is perfect, everything you could need and equipped and furnished beautifully. The views are stunning and the location is within easy reach of nature reserves and forests - spoilt for choice. It was so cosy and warm in the hut with the log burner lit and the fairy lights on. We will return! Thank you

4 nights at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

Oh my goodness. This site was simply magical. We were blessed with beautiful weather, but I’m sure no amount of rain could take away from this beautiful place. Pridie clearly loves and cares for her land. The pitches are large and well laid out, maximising privacy, it was quiet when we were there but I imagine it never feels “busy.” A fire pit is a great addition and the wood bundle was brilliant value for money. The composting loos were fab, the shower facilities basic but clean and hot! Washing facilities were great with eco-friendly washing up liquid provided. Plugs with USB in the Byre (where washing facilities are) for charging your tech (but hardly any signal - bliss.) We missed Pridie’s walk but overheard a bit of one and chatting with her she is clearly extremely knowledgeable about the land she cares for and I would definitely sign up for a walk next time we go. So many beautiful walks on your doorstep, with helpful walks highlighted in the Byre for you to explore, which was really helpful and led to us discovering some stunning walks nearby. This will be one of the very rare sites which we will revisit.

2 nights at Cuddfan - The Hiding Place

Beautiful spot, very peaceful. Lovely next to the river for a refreshing dip!! The tent and facilities were great, very comfortable and all the bits you could need! Great to have our own loo and shower as well. A really peaceful escape from the world.

Weekend Trip to Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

Beautiful views and incredibly peaceful setting. Pridie was super welcoming and friendly. I can imagine that if the site was busy then the facilities would be in high demand, there is only one shower and it's in the same room as the only flushing toilet (there are two eco loos in the camping fields) but it was no problem when we stayed.

Weekend Trip to Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

We absolutely love camping on Pridie and James’ land, it was perfect back to basic camping, compost loo and shower/wash room, plenty of space and outstanding views. We will 100% be returning especially when the sauna is built! This campsite was so peaceful and welcoming! The horse and sheep in the meadows next to your pitch are just incredible! Also worth getting a box or two of wood as the fires in the evening just top the day of perfectly! If you want a lovely refreshing weekend I can’t recommend this site enough! We didn’t want to leave!

3 nights at Over-the-Moon Luxury Shepherds Hut

We loved our stay at Over the Moon. Location was perfect, bed was extremely comfy and the hut was very cosy with everything you'd need. We loved the chickens mooching around and hearing the sheep and baby lambs. Such a peaceful and beautiful location. Thanks to Ruth & Jude and the animals ☺️

Over The Moon is a charming shepherd’s hut, and it was an absolute delight to stay there. The accommodation is thoughtfully designed and beautifully finished to a high standard. It was also super cosy and warm. The peaceful setting made it the perfect place to unwind and recharge. Waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying the tranquil surroundings was just what I needed. I would highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for a relaxing and restorative getaway.

Weekend Trip to Over-the-Moon Luxury Shepherds Hut

I had a wonderful time at Ruth's Shepards hut. The hut was so cozy and a perfect location to explore the delights of North Wales. The eggs from the hens were the best I've tasted! 😍 I was travelling alone with my dog and Ruth put me right at ease and was a very welcoming host. I can't wait to return to Over The Moon in the future 💖

Weekend Trip to Over-the-Moon Luxury Shepherds Hut

We absolutely loved our stay in this shepherd’s hut. The location is fantastic, with plenty of walks and nature spots nearby—perfect for outdoor lovers. The orchard garden was much larger than we expected and ideal for letting our dog roam safely off-lead. The hut itself was impressively well equipped with everything we needed: a fully stocked kitchen, shower, toilet, sink, soft towels, various lighting options, indoor and outdoor seating, plus both a radiator and log burner for cozy evenings. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to relax after long walks. It was also, without a doubt, the cleanest holiday stay we’ve ever experienced. Communication with Ruth was spot on. Everything felt just right, and we enjoyed every moment. We loved it so much we’re already booking our next stay!

Weekend Trip to Over-the-Moon Luxury Shepherds Hut

We had the most wonderful stay at The Sheperd’s Hut. Ruth and Jude were truly wonderful hosts. The location is just beautiful. Waking up to the gorgeous views, and our exploring the local forest was amazing. The sheep, chickens, and friendliest dogs made for a wonderful walk through the field. Everything was spotless, and you could feel the work and love that had been poured in. Tea, coffee, and sugar provided, as well as all the cooking tools you could need. The log burner was set up for us before we arrived, and we lit it on our last night. It was so toasty. The hut was comfortable, cosy, and exactly what you need to escape to the countryside. The eggs from the chickens are a must have! The local village was lovely too. We had the most beautiful Sunday Roast in the village. We are so grateful for the hints and tips given in the binder on arrival. Diolch!

Absolutely stunning location and great hosts, they even dropped us a message to let us know the northern lights were visible that night. It's well kept, cosy and has everything you'd need. We will definitely be booking it again.

Weekend Trip to Penylan Cider Farm

Beautiful little get away. Lots of lovely little touches that makes it stand out. Very peaceful and I think it would be an out of this world stay in the summer. Would definitely recommend 👌

Weekend Trip to Hamperley Hideaways

Lovely spot in the woods, thank you They perfect basic camp in the woods with a fire that we were looking for

Weekend Trip to Cuddfan - The Hiding Place

We loved the beautiful setting and peaceful location - the sound of the rushing river and bird calls were all that could be heard. As far as camping in November goes, we got lucky and it was dry and very mild. The camp facilities were great, with most things supplied, and importantly, the beds were comfortable. We can recommend the local pub and would love to come and stay again.

2 nights at Penylan Cider Farm

The Cider Site is a small family run camping site, which made it feel very intimate and homely. The views are great and you feel relaxed and part of nature. We stayed right at the end of the season (the last weekend of October), so it was quiet and the Cider Bar was closed.....but we'll be back another time to sample the home made Cider :). The facilities are good - warm shower, towel rail, toilet. This site is on the border of Hereford and Abergavenny, so perfectly placed to explore either, which we did! Great location! Great find! :)
