About Tyn Cornel Camping
Tyn Cornel Camping sits just outside Bala on a peaceful riverside spot that campers consistently praise for its spacious pitches and spotless facilities. The friendly owners are notably helpful with local knowledge, and the on-site coffee, ice cream and fresh milk machines add a welcome touch of convenience. Fire pits are allowed, perfect for evenings by the water, and pitch options range from non-electric grass to fully serviced hardstanding, plus two riverside camping pods and a geodome for those after something different.
Value for money is frequently mentioned as excellent, though with such glowing feedback you might expect it to feel busier in peak season. Dogs are welcome, electric hook-up and WiFi are included, and the combination of well-maintained facilities and genuine hospitality makes this a solid, characterful base for exploring Gwynedd's lakes and mountains.

What visitors say
We’re currently on our last evening here,first time staying here, have stayed in numerous sites around the area, but this one is special! The family that run this are so attentive! The facilities are regular topped up,checked and cleaned. Freezer and fridge to use onsite free of charge. Plenty of space between bays. We are already looking to come back in the next few weeks! Defo worth a visit! Such good value for money! Me and my little boy have loved it here, horses behind our tent, staff dogs that love fuses and just super family orientated! 🙌🏽💙

Fantastic weekend at this great dog friendly site. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, spotlessly clean amenities & free wifi. Small well stocked shop & as this is a dairy farm, fresh milk on tap😊 On the doorstep of the National White Water Centre & Bala Lake. We will be back again soon thanks 😎👍

Lovely place, clean and quiet. Vending machines for coffee, ice cream and fresh milk/milkshake available next to the reception/shop. Card accepted . Can rent a fire pit and buy bags of logs (£7 a bag and £20 deposit for a fire pit) Little river next to the campsite, rafting place a bit further up, Bala lake minutes away drive and Pen-y-pass 45 minutes away for a hike on Snowdon.

First ever campsite I’ve stayed at. Good location very close to Bala, nice and quiet despite being near main road, friendly staff, clean toilets, fair price… no complaints at all!
