Between the mountains and the sea of southern Snowdonia you’ll find Nant Madyn Camping. In fact, on a clear day, both are within view of here, so, if you fancy hiking and biking at heights one day and a dip in the sea the next, this is the place for you. Though, to be fair, you don’t have to do any of that at all to enjoy a pitch on this site. While it’s an excellent location as a base for exploring this part of Wales, this Hipcamp is also a perfectly pleasant place to simply relax for a while. It has a quiet location with streams babbling by, fantastic views and lovely places to walk. Plus, it’s just five miles from seaside Tywyn and less than 10 from pretty Aberdyfi.
The important thing to note is that this is a campsite on a working farm and a back-to-basics kind of place. It’s a tents-only site and suits those who’ve pitched a few times and those who are willing to embrace the outdoors. Facilities are basic: a couple of portaloos, a little shower cabin, and a sink. But, along with that, you get the freedom to camp where you please and hosts who are happy to help if you want directions to the nearest shop or recommendations for a good walk. For that, the Jones family will probably point you along one of the footpaths that passes close by and leads to their favourite viewpoint.
This is Eryri National Park (still better known as Snowdonia) so there are plenty more wonderful views. The short, sharp hike up Craig yr Aderyn (Bird Rock), two miles away, offers some. Or, for even loftier ones, how about tackling the hike up southern Snowdonia’s biggest and best-known peak, Cader Idris? It’s nine miles from site and almost 900 metres high. In the other direction, you can reach five miles of sand at the seaside resort of Tywyn. There you can enjoy all the fun of the fair, hop aboard a steam train on the Talyllyn Railway or join the Wales Coast Path for a coastal walk.
We offer basic off-grid camping with spectacular views! Come and enjoy the tranquility of Snowdonia and camp in our rolling fields. Set up on one of our non-electric grass camping pitches and enjoy sunrise and sunset over the surrounding mountains, with only the birds and local wildlife for company!
