Have just stayed at this site for the Easter weekend, its lovely the grass is flat and well cut, 2 toilets and 1 shower were immaculate the shower is 50p but you get a long hot shower for this money recycling bins at the entrance
Its not on the beach but a 15 minute walk will bring you out at the cliff top where you can walk down to the pub on the beach
The owners are very nice and extremely helpful will definitely go back for another stay but next time a bit longer
Please remember to follow the camp sites directions
A very nice site, we had a super pitch for only 20 pounds well worth the money. Toilet block was spotless every time I visited. It has a good mix of tents and caravans. We visited all the local beaches and the dog was welcome everywhere. Can highly recommend the local Indian restaurant oh and the local shops are very well stocked if you are up this way I would highly recommend this site as a base to explore nice quiet and very clean
When we approached from the road and drove past the caravans into the tented area, we initially thought it was rather small and over crowded. We were made welcome by Lorraine who showed us to our pitch.
This is a small site which is compact and bijoux. We quickly adjusted to the small area, but it did become a slight problem with lots of families with children, as there was often 3 cricket matches going on at the same time and my car was often getting hit by the ball. Also, the children were playing hide and seek and running behind the tents. As it was going dark, one of the children ran into our washing line (which was at the back of the tent) and hurt himself, and I was also concerned because campers had their BBQ's cooling behind the tents (out of the way), and children could have easily ran into them and suffered severe burns. It was lovely that my children made friends quickly and they were able to socialise, it was just the availability of space was tight for the children and there was no dedicated play area. Our stay may have just been an exception with high numbers of children.
The quality of grass/pitches was fantastic - better than my own garden, and it is clear that pride is taken with ground care. There are two ladies toilets and one shower (which is within the toilet area) and one family room. I know earlier posts suggest that you get just 5 minutes for your 50p shower cost, but I think you get slightly longer now.
The local shop is well stocked and has a superb butchers section and gorgeous French stick.
As NT members, we were able to use the car park without charge and then walk to the Ty Coch pub along the beach. The walk took a leisurely 25 minutes, and the car park is just over a mile from the camp site, so I'd bank on a 45 minute walk if walking from camp to pub. The pub is pretty expensive (£10 for a sandwich). There's no other way to access the pub apart from a walk along the beach or a walk over the golf club.
The washing area is very clean and modern. There are a number of indoor large sinks, a couple of freezers, fridge, coin operated washing machine and coin operated tumble drier.
We did enjoy our stay here and it is a lovely part of the world and a good central point, but I was just a little concerned about lack of space for lots of children.
What a beautiful site! The owners were really nice and helpful. The toilet blocks were immaculate. Each pitch has an electrical connection, the grass and grounds are very well kept and maintained. It is only a 10 minute walk to the beautiful beach and the pub on the beach is superb. Had a great weekend kayaking in the sea and walking around the head. Just booked to go again for the August Bank holiday, in a our recently purchased caravan this time. Can't wait!
Just arrived back from another stay at this lovely site. Never disappoints and the owners cant do enough to help people enjoy their time there. Must mention the Showers and Washing Up facilities. Both have been upgraded with much better performance in both the showers and in the washing up area, where the hot taps now produce an absolute torrent of piping hot water. Weather was mixed with a couple of days of heavy rain which the site drains off brilliantly. Everything spotlessly clean as usual. Cant wait to get back there again.
Glanllyn is situated on the shore of Lake Bala in Wales. 16 acres of natural parkland and spectacular views of nearby hills and mountains make it an idyllic spot to pitch a caravan, motorhome, tent or campervan with level grass or hardstanding pitches. For water sports enthusiasts there is a private shingle beach with easy launching area for windsurfing, sailing, kayaking, fishing and paddle boarding. Camp shop, wifi, laundrette, excellent heated toilet & shower facilities. The market town of Bala is 3 miles away with plenty of small shops, pubs & retaurants, cinema and a leisure centre.

What a wonderful site this is. Set in manicured grounds and literally minutes from fabulous beaches. Lorraine and Selwyn are wonderful hosts and quite clearly care for the site in meticulous detail. With a good mixture of hard standing and grass pitches, fully serviced, just electric or neither, the choice is yours.
The Ty Coch pub on the beach has been a favourite for many years and is still worth the walk. We shall certainly be back.
We had an 11 night stay on the campsite during some very variable weather in August, the site was immaculate and generous spaces between pitches. The beach nearby is lovely and there is loads to do in the area we went biking, walking and spent as much time as possible on the beach even in the rain! it is easy access to all lovely towns around so a useful spot to base yourself in. The local fish and chip shop was excellent as was the local shop which includes a fab butchers and bakery.
The only gripe we had which the owners are addressing this winter are the shower facilities, they ended up costing us a small fortune with 5 of us to shower sometimes twice a day if we had been at the beach etc at 40p per shower, they often didn't work but to their credit the owners refunded us each time over and above what we had used. There is only 1 family room so we had to wait about a lot and the ladies shower was in the toilet which made for an unpleasant experience at times as they are all open above the cubicle which means little privacy and no ventilation between them! I would personally rather pay more to stay per night and then have free showers and all our favourite sites operate this way, it would put me off returning unless I knew this had been sorted out.
The owners could not be more helpful and even during a particularly bad night when a large unsavoury family group pitched up we were impressed by the way they handled this and ensured that their current customers were cared for and happy.
A small playground, even just a set of swings would be welcomed on the site to keep the kids entertained sometimes.
We only stayed here for three nights and wished we could have stayed longer. Every thing is kept immaculate.
The area is outstanding, beaches countryside and site. Lots to do if you like the outdoors.
We had some dry weather but not hot sunny days so we will be back when the weather gets better. Hard standings with water and drains included was great for motorhomes.
Just returned from a five day break at this site. Arrived on the jubilee bank holiday monday, the weather was glorious when we arrived. there was nobody around so followed the instructions to the house, which could do with being a bit bigger and clearer but found the house in the end. very friendly owners and helpful as well.
Pitched the folding camper and went for a walk with the hope of finding the beach, as some of the previous reviews stated beach nearby short walk, after 20 mins walking gave up and went back to the camper.
Two small shops just a short stroll down the road selling all the essentials but the nearest supermarket was in pwllheli.
Lovely spacious pitch near to the toilet and shower block with ehu. showers were 40p for 5 mins, which is quite expensive, especially with children to shower also.
One big gripe was that there was a parent and child facility but single people were forever using it, so never got to go in this, I think is something that needs looking into, especially as there is only one male/female shower making the queues longer in there when parents have to shower themselves and their children.
If visiting the beach be prepared for quite a long walk at least 30 mins, but a lovely beach when you get there, with a nice pub there also.
If taking dogs then there is a lovely walk across the road and up a dirt track which takes you to a lovely pond and horses in the field nearby, who were very friendly and let the children stroke them.
Wash up facilities were spot on but could do with hotter water. freezer and washing machines/dryers are also located in the wash up area.
Just one thing to bear in mind is that when we pitched we were on the top field and had to level the camper quite low at the back and struggled getting the waste under back end, so make sure you have a long waste hose.
We had torrential rain whilst camping but the ground soon drained, but extremely wet whilst it was raining, but as said the rain was very bad.
All in all a lovely site and well worth a visit
