Details checked 5 August 2026 Β· source: Google Places Gwerniago Camping Site near Machynlleth takes tents, caravans and motorhomes on a working farm three miles from town, with dogs welcome. ## About Gwerniago Camping Site Gwerniago is a working farm campsite tucked into the southern edge of Eryri National Park, just outside Pennal village in the Dyfi Valley. It's three miles from Machynlleth and a quarter-hour drive from the beaches at Aberdyfi, with grass tent pitches and fully serviced hardstanding for tourers spread across gently sloping fields that look out toward the estuary and surrounding hills. The setup is straightforwardβ€”parking beside tent pitches, a functional toilet block, and a relaxed, family-run feel that welcomes dogs and campfires. It works well as a base for walkers, cyclists, and families exploring the Dyfi Osprey Project, Talyllyn Railway, or Centre for Alternative Technology, all close by. Some visitors note the facilities can feel a touch tired in places, but the location and generous pitch sizes more than compensate. If you're after a simple, well-positioned farm site rather than polished holiday-park amenities, Gwerniago delivers quiet countryside camping within easy reach of both coast and market town. ## Photos Photos via Google ## Can I bring...? β›Ί Tent pitches βœ“ Yes ⚑ Electric 🚐 Caravans welcome βœ“ Yes 🚌 Motorhomes welcome βœ“ Yes ✨ Glamping available βœ• No πŸ›– Lodges & statics βœ• No ## Pitch types - β€’ 25 x Non Electric Grass Pitches - β€’ 9 x Fully Serviced Hardstanding Touring Pitches - β€’ 10 x Electric Grass Pitches Pitch details as listed by the booking provider β€” availability and exact pricing shown at checkout. ## Hook-up ⚑ Electric hook-up βœ“ πŸ”Œ EV charging βœ• ## Facilities 🚿 Hot showers βœ“ πŸ“Ά Free WiFi βœ“ 🏊 Swimming pool βœ• πŸ›’ Onsite shop βœ• 🎠 Children's play area βœ• πŸ– BBQs allowed βœ“ πŸ”₯ Campfires allowed βœ“ 🧺 Laundry βœ“ 🎣 Fishing βœ• πŸ› Hot tub βœ• β™Ώ Accessible facilities βœ“ πŸ…ΏοΈ Hardstanding pitches βœ“ 🍽️ Bar/restaurant on site βœ• Allow pets on site Electric hookups Family friendly Showers Toilets W.C. disposal Drinking water Fires allowed WiFi No takeaway delivery found for this location (SY20 9JX) on Just Eat or Deliveroo β€” you'll likely need to bring or buy supplies before you arrive. ## Nearest supermarkets Handy if you're self-catering or need to stock up on arrival. - Co-op 2.3 miles - Lidl 14 miles - Tesco 14.1 miles - Morrisons 14.3 miles Straight-line distances β€” the drive will be longer.

The facilities were clean & the picnic tables were a pleasurable convenience. 2 months ago Β· via Google Frances Wartnaby β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Our pitch was very steep, especially in one of the back corners. Paid for fully serviced, but couldn't use the drain because it was on the highest back corner and water won't flow up hill! Facilities were clean and good but not enough for such a large site. However, the views were stunning. a year ago Β· via Google [More campsites in Machynlleth](https://staycation.co.uk/machynlleth/camping) β˜… 4.7 (306 reviews) 92% of guests would recommend this site From Β£18 per night [Book on Pitchup](https://www.pitchup.com/campsites/Wales/Mid-Wales/Powys/Machynlleth/gwerniago-caravan/) [Visit website](http://gwerniago.co.uk/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=campsite) [01654 791227](tel:01654791227) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Machynlleth **County** Powys **Dogs allowed** βœ… Yes **Electric hook-up** βœ… Yes **Payment** Cards, Contactless 🏨 ### Prefer a hotel nearby?
