Why stay here ...

Welcome to our CL site, we have a breathtaking view over Red Wharf Bay and during the summer months a spectacular sunrise over the Bay hence the name "Gwel y Wawr". As the pictures show the field is on a slight slope but this only enhances the view of the Bay.

There is a bus stop outside the gate, and a pub about 100 yards away which does value for money food and a daily carvery. Walkers can join the coastal path or enjoy walks along the beach or in the nearby forest.

All five pitches are hard standing and have a view of the Bay with easy drive on access (no reversing!) and tracks to drive out so there's no problem with getting stuck in bad weather. Dogs are welcome (on leads please). Thank you for looking at our site.

We are an adults only site.

No car charging please.

Where do they get prices from?!

This site is well below the standard of that expected of a CAMC CL. It’s redeeming feature is the view over Red Wharf Bay and that’s it! To charge £30pn for gravel pitches that are hardly level and poorly spaced out is quite frankly a complete rip off, I... Show more

Shocking!!

Paid £30pn for a small sloping pitch on loose gravel/ chippings. Pitches were also close together. Elsan point was absolutely disgusting and overgrown with brambles, the hose was dragging in the 'splash area'. You can hear the traffic noise on the main A5025 which is a very short distance away. It... Show more

First visit to Anglesea

Great little site with fantastic views of Red Wharf Bay. Like the drive on/drive off pitches making arrival and departure a breeze. Owners were very accomodating by allowing us to wait around on-site before moving on to our next site which was only 15 minutes drive away but... Show more

Wonderful CL!

We spent a week on this lovely CL...the view from all 5 hardstanding pitches is stunning, the hedge kept low so you can make the most of the view over Red Wharf Bay from inside, or outside, the caravan. A great base for touring Anglesey, the site has two toilets... Show more

Lovely site

Stayed here end of April. Straightforward to find. Didn’t notice any road noise from the pitch (3). We did need levellers to straighten up, but really appreciated the way you could drive off the pitch rather than reversing, simple yet effective. Owners are around & pleasant but not intrusive. Lovely... Show more

A great CL with a fabulous view

A great open all year CL, very easy access as it’s on the main road. Amazing views of Red Wharf Bay from the pitch. Buses go past the site. An easy walk down a quiet lane to get to the coast, we walked to Benllech in just over an hour... Show more

Beautiful view

As all other reviews say - wonderful views. Hosts very friendly and helpful. Easy access to pitches. Bus outside and easy to drive to local areas. Slight negative was that the pitches are quite close together so if you wanted to sit outside it wasn’t very private.

View second to none!

We were made very welcome by the owner of the site and had the site to ourselves! The views from all the pitches was amazing. We probably would have chosen the one in the middle but the owner wanted us on pitch 5 which was up by the... Show more

Amazing views

Wow, what a view, that's worth the site fee on its own. Level pitch, on/off drive, no reversing, it can't be easier than that. Basic facilities but we knew that when we booked it. The Bulls Inn, just along the road, was really good, all in all - I can't... Show more
