Reviewer: Atsen 4 reviews from this member

 Wonderfully kept site and close to coastal path, beach and shops.

Very comfortable here and was given a hard standing pitch due to quieter period.

Facilities were adequate for our needs and we will return next year on our travels.

 A site with great sea views and very close to Abedaron and the cliff path heading west - I recommend walking all the way to Whistling Sands (allow 5 hours), enjoying the beach and cafe there, then taking the bus back. But why is the site so expensive?

It wasn't high season, I was on my own in my van with no awning etc but the owner tried to charge me 20 quid plus 5 quid for electric per night.

I protested and got it down to 20 quid all in, but it was still miles more than I paid earlier on this trip in Snowdonia and Angelsey. Simply too expensive.

 Dwyros is a wonderful campsite with gorgeous views over the bay of Aberdaron. We arrived on a rather windy week with wind speeds up to 30 mph but the tent stood up to the worst of the weather.

The ground is delightfully easy to set up camp on with few subsurface stones and it holds onto the guy ropes easily even in the high winds.

The toilet block is clean and airy, the showers were a little frustrating in that you had to keep pressing the button every 10 seconds which isn't easy to cope with when washing hair etc but that is a minor detail as the campsite was delightful.

There was an enormous chest freezer in which to put blocks etc all free of charge and the washing up facilities were spacious and clean.

The proprietor is very laid back and a lovely man, the rates are excellent considering the facilities and I would thoroughly recommend a relaxing stay here in Aberdaron.

Reviewer: Campermaid 20 reviews from this member

 Great site. Stopped for 2 nights on a tour of the area. The views are fantastic and with just a short walk to the village I would highly recommend it. As long as you are able bodied that is, as its a very steep walk.

Site owner very laid back, didn't even take our names or reg number, just said park were you like in first field. The shower and toilets were adequate, just could have done with maybe a shelf or seat in showers, as all you get is a few hooks.

But that's not a big deal, just looking to balance it with a bit of negative when really there isnt any.

We intend to return when better weather comes.

 A very well kept campsite with beautiful ocean views! It is within walking distance to Aberdaron, although the walk back to the campsite is very steep! There's a large toilet block with a number of showers, plenty of hot water and is very clean. We will definitely return one day.

Reviewer: Pez75 1 review from this member

 Lovely campsite in a great location. Quite a trek to get there, but worth it for the remote beauty of the place.

No overly fussy rules - just a friendly, helpful owner & spotless facilities.

Short walk to the town, and an even shorter one to the coastal path & beach. Only downside is no focal point / playground for kids, but not a problem as only there for a couple of days. Will return.

Reviewer: Dave 418 38 reviews from this member

 We hadn't been to Aberdaron for 34 years so without booking we added a couple of nights here to our holiday in North Wales. Dwyros Campsite was just what we wanted. The owner made us very welcome, showed us were the facilities were and said we could pitch were we liked because it was quiet.

We found a spot on the first field with views over the village and out to sea. The hook up points were over the hedge in the next field, no problem really. Lots of water taps around the site. Toilets clean and tidy. I suppose the grey water drain was a bit difficult, really for caravans but we managed.

We walked into the village from the site. It has changed a bit but not been spoilt. Lots of places to eat a small supermarket and a bakery.

The coast path can be accessed from the site entrance and the National Trust centre in the village has lots of information about the area.

 This is a beautiful site and the best we have ever stayed in. The 4 hour journey is worth it and I would recommend this to anyone. The views are breathtaking, the village is really lovely and the people are friendly and it has everything you need.

The Aberdaron beach is stunning as is the Pothor (Whistling Sands) beach which is like something out of a travel brochure and is a must see, the café which is run by the National Trust cooks a brilliant pizza and the staff are lovely!

Dwyros is a stunning campsite, very clean and the owners are extremely friendly and very helpful,

It can be windy due to the location but the views are absolutely worth it, waking up in the morning overlooking the stunning bay is very memorable and amazing.

One of Wales absolute gems!

Reviewer: Surferjon 10 reviews from this member

 This is how a campsite should be. Warm welcome, no long list of printed rules, adequate shower and toilet facilities and fantastic views over Aberdaron bay.

Add to this a 10 minute walk to a great beach, 2 pubs, and a variety of interesting eating establishments, and coastal walks, and you have a winning formula.

This is 'real' North Wales all wrapped up into a small friendly coastal village. This is NOT Abersoch ( lancashire On Sea)The National Trust shop is also a wealth of information. and is how we found this site at short notice!

Reviewer: Malouey 4 reviews from this member

 Stayed at this campsite for two nights. Booked a tent pitch with no electric (not available) however when we arrived the owner went out of his way to find us a hookup. Very friendly owners and generally relaxed site - there aren't lot of rules. Reasonably priced at £20 a night at half term including hook up. Toilets are generally pretty clean though there is the usual grass and that in there. Showers hot. Added bonus there is a hairdryer. We didn't queue for showers once and it was a busy weekend. Very convenient for Aberdaron - about a 10 minute walk. Lovely walk down to beach from opposite the campsite. Aberdaren is just gorgeous and feels very much like a little cornish fishing village. Not an awful lot to do or buy which is great as you can just enjoy the beach, have a beer on the balcony and relax! This is a reasonably rustic and relaxed site - not glamoress but relaxed and chilled. Would definitely return. No kids play area but plenty of space for the kids to play.

Reviewer: Janenix 1 review from this member

 We stayed here for the second time, and would definitely recommend, please see below:-

Well kept grassed site, Alun cut the grass before we pitched up, pitch was large and well maintained.

Toilets - clean, a few more showers maybe needed in peak times, but we experienced no problems, plenty of hot water but shower times are quite short.

Views - Absolutely fantastic, especially for the campers.

Village - just a short walk along a quietish lane, or you can walk along the coastal path to the beach, but be warned its about 100 steps down & then 100 back up, but if the tide is out you can walk along the beach. Lovely village, 2 pubs which both serve lovely food and are dog friendly, free WIFI, but no O2 signal, great fresh bread from the Bakery, Spar shop that sells a good range of items, and a little shop for papers, wine, postcards, maps etc, ice cream parlour, chippy, couple of cafes, and a fantastic (mostly)dog friendly beach.

All in all a great smallish campsite, no major rules, clean and friendly.

Reviewer: Colinlp2000 1 review from this member

 I'm not one for writing reviews and I'm a fussy individual at best but in this case I felt it was worth it. Very casual arrival, owner friendly and just told us roughly where to camp for the best views and what a view! The campsite overlooks Aberdaron bay which is spectacular, it's just outside the village and a very pleasant 5 - 10 minute walk with its own spectacular views as well. Facilities include washing up rooms with plenty of hot water, washing machine and a separate dryer, a large chest freezer, the toilets and showers are spotless.

This has to be the nicest campsite we have ever stayed in and we will certainly be visiting again

Reviewer: Albp 2 reviews from this member

 Pitched at Dwyvos caravan site at the top of the hill in Abadaron at the tip of the Llyn Peninsula - picturesque views of the sea and distant islands.

The owner was very pleasant and helpful, the site well kept and clean with decent facilities at a reasonable price.

Narrow yet manageable roads to reach Abadaron, which is a quiet village with two pubs serving food. The interesting beach is a short walk down - shingle and sand, rock pools to explore, and good to swim or body board. Whistling Sands 5mins drive away, is a stunning cove with beautiful fine sand and clear water.

With views and beautiful beaches nearby I would highly recommend the site.

Reviewer: CAROL+ANDY 3 reviews from this member

 Arrived and pitched up and pleasingly not issued with a huge list of rules.

Lovely views across the bay from the tent field unusual for tenters to have the best pitches.

Although the site was full the toilets and showers (Included in the price) were always clean and available.

The grass was cut short which I think is good for camping as it dries out quicker after the morning dew. Covered washing up sinks Laundry and Freezer for ice blocks or food.

The village is just a short stroll down hill where you will find a pub, hotel, paper shop, small but adequate Spar, bakery and Chip shop all in a lovely setting soon to be complemented with a new built visitors centre, believe me these facilities are excellent compared with some more remote campsites in the area.

All in all a great stay, one small down side the site is exposed to the wind make sure your well strapped down a small price to pay for the view,
