1 night at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

Such a great site! Nestled on the mountainside, very natural setting, fire pits and special flat areas for vans. Host was so very welcoming and friendly. Exactly what I'd hoped to find. The walks directly from camp were stunning, lots of different routes to choose from. For families there were self-guided nature activities on site too. Will definitely be going back!

4 nights at Pytingwyn Woods

Lovely hosts. Easy to find. Peaceful place. Woodland and grass pitches. A compost toilet. River running through the woodland. Absolutely enjoyed my stay and will return. A wonderful campsite.

Best camp site around. David was so friendly and so nice to be close to woodland and such a nice river. Can’t wait to return

Weekend Trip to Pytingwyn Woods

Absolutely beautiful spot. The river running through was the cherry on top. Feels very wild with only a couple of other campers which we barely saw. 100% recommend :)

2 nights at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

We loved camping here! Pridie was super friendly and very informative about her land and surroundings. She took the time to chat with us and made us feel very welcomed. The Land is beautiful and can’t wait to come again the summer.

1 night at Eden's Nook

Lovely welcome. Great facilities for this small and quiet site. Have the option for a cooked breakfast is a great option.

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

What a wonderful, peaceful camp- all to ourselves! Dreamy. A proper wild camp, no running water and a compost toilet but so peaceful and George the horse is gorgeous

Weekend Trip to Henbant Permaculture Farm + Camp

very chilled and quiet. Loved the sauna and barn. Especially loved that there is plenty of space for everyone. Will definitely be back

Weekend Trip to Henbant Permaculture Farm + Camp

Henbant is an incredible place for so many reasons, if you’re just looking for the basics of a campsite in a stunning location it ticks all the boxes but it doesn’t take much rooting to see it’s way more than that, the spirit of community and harmony with the land Matt and Jenny have nurtured is a thing of beauty, the ethos of life there shines through in every nook and cranny, we only stayed for 2 nights, not long enough, and we loved every moment, we’ll definitely be returning to the most inspiring, life affirming place we’ve encountered in north wales, big thanks Henbant, see you again soon x

3 nights at Henbant Permaculture Farm + Camp

An outstanding place to camp for a "wild camping" experience, but with some extra creature comforts, in one of the most beautiful locations in the UK. I can't recommend it highly enough, particularly for a family or relaxed trip.

Weekend Trip to Henbant Permaculture Farm + Camp

The land at Henbant and community at are precious. The camping pitches are simple with access to the basics you need, and there are small cabins built into the land that are gorgesous and cosy. The values and vision of the Hanbant community are an inspiration and well worth supporting.

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.

Weekend Trip to Hillfort Camping

We had a fabulous time camping at Hill Fort. Stunning views and great facilities. John could not do enough for us. We would not hesitate to return and would thoroughly recommend!

Lovely spot to camp by the river! David came out and said hello a while after I arrived. Basic facilities but exactly as advertised
