Y Giler Arms near Betws-y-Coed takes tents, caravans and motorhomes on a two-acre Snowdonia site with lake views, an on-site pub serving hot meals, and dogs welcome on leads.

## About Y Giler Arms

Tucked behind a traditional coaching inn just off the A5, this compact camping field delivers proper Snowdonia scenery without the fanfare – lake views, river meanders, and Eryri peaks on the horizon. The two-acre site is geared toward walkers and outdoor enthusiasts drawn to nearby Betws-y-Coed, fifteen minutes up the road, yet feels peaceful and remote once you're pitched.

The real draw here is the pub. Guests rave about the generous, reasonably priced plates in the lakeside restaurant – think quality produce and hearty portions – plus local real ales and a genuinely warm welcome. Hot breakfasts can be ordered the night before, and there's a games room with pool and darts to keep kids (or competitive adults) occupied. Facilities earn high marks too: spacious, spotlessly clean shower blocks, one fully accessible, plus dishwashing areas and electric hook-ups.

Dogs are welcome year-round but must stay on leads near the surrounding sheep pasture. Campfires and barbecues are both allowed, adding to the relaxed, back-to-basics vibe.

Andrew JONES ★★★★★

Had a great weekend camping over may bank holiday with i other veterans. Staff are friendly and helpful. We ate in the pub for an evening meal. Food was great and reasonably priced staff did a great job as it was very busy. Thanks for a great weekend we will be back 😊

Sarah White ★★★★★

Stopped here at the weekend in the camper. Think we had the best spot! Staff were friendly and really helpful. We enjoyed a lovely meal in the Giler. Really enjoyed ourselves, and will definitely be back soon. Great stopover if wanting to have a walk around the village and checking out the Falls.

We camped here for 3 nights and we can't wait to come back! The staff are so amazing and friendly, the food at the pub was so good as well. I ordered the ribeye which came cooked to perfection, the nachos had cheese on every layer that's just pure love. The actual campsite is fantastic, a beautiful pond to walk around, splendid views and a short distance to Betws-y-coed which is absolutely worth the visit. Really easy location to get to the village or the fairy glen. We really enjoyed our visit here and hope other people have a similar experience to us.

We were staying just around the corner so popped in for our evening meal. Prices were very reasonable and food was great. Also had a pint of local ale. This place is highly recommended. Thanks!
