About Beddgelert Caravan and Camping Site
Tucked into conifer and broadleaf forest within Snowdonia National Park, this riverside site offers a genuinely peaceful escape just minutes from the village of Beddgelert. The setting is spectacular—mountain peaks rise all around, and walking trails fan out directly from the pitches into classic Welsh hiking country. Facilities are a cut above: visitors consistently praise the clean, well-maintained private showers and toilets, while the Forest Retreat reception stocks local produce, gifts, and serves takeaway hot drinks and cakes. The on-site team are notably helpful, offering local tips and activity bookings, and there's even pizza and curry available to order.
Dog owners are well catered for with a warm-water wash station and complimentary treats at reception, plus the Welsh Highland Railway runs from the on-site station (pups welcome for a small fee). Do note that the advertised WiFi can be patchy. With both electric hardstanding and non-electric grass pitches, plus bike hire and charging points, it's a well-equipped base for exploring Snowdonia's legends and landscapes.

What visitors say
Great campsite in Forest Holidays park. A little expensive for solo traveller. Only 2 showers / toilets by the tents but only occasionally had to wait. Scenic walk of about 40 mins into the village. Staff were friendly and helpful. Well stocked shop and a take away pizza place on site. Will come again. Thank you.

Did a last minute booking end of January 26, for a hard standing pitch for motorhome, all hard standing pitches have Ehu and are relatively flat, the washing facilities are really good and extremely clean, loads of hot water, each shower room has a toilet ,sink and shower and a heated towel rail. The reception has a shop which is quite well stocked, it also does hot drinks, they have a food delivery / takeaway, we had the curry meal which was really nice and not too expensive. The site is situated just under a mile from Beddgelert village, there is a forest walk which is stunning and is about 3.5 k and takes around 30 mins, or you can walk down the main road which is about 1 km but there are is no footpath. There is a bus stop at the entrance to the site with regular buss’s to Bedggelert one way and Canarfeon the other way. There is WiFi on site around the reception area but non up on the camping site, there is no phone signal on the site. You are staying in a forest which is really nice but extremely dark on a night so take a torch, the site is really well run and the staff are great, we were here in January so no steam trains unfortunately they only run in the summer, we will definitely be going back.

Absolutely amazing campsite. Stayed for 6 nights and loved the forest experience. Excellent location. Steam train is brilliant. We will definitely be back.

Lovely site in a great spot. Nice hideaways in the trees give it quite a continental feel. Also like being able to order croissants etc
