About Penrallt Coastal Campsite
Penrallt sits on four acres of level grassland divided into intimate fields, each offering spacious pitches and those celebrated sea views across Cardigan Bay. The All Wales Coastal Path crosses the site, leading down to rocky coves and sandy beaches, while sunset-watchers can listen to waves breaking from their pitch. It's a proper haven for wildlife enthusiasts and families who return year after year, recognised by Cool Camping and The Guardian among Britain's best hundred campsites.
Facilities include camping pods, a yurt and seasonal pitches alongside traditional touring and tent spaces. The site holds Green Dragon Accreditation and Marine Conservation Society Gold Standard for environmental sustainability. Some reviewers note the toilet block can feel a little tired in places, though the peaceful atmosphere and commitment to preserving this diverse landscape more than compensate. Campfires are permitted, and the drying room proves invaluable after coastal walks.

What visitors say
This is a gem 💎 nestled in the cliffs! £15 a night to pitch a tent for 2 people, clean facilities and not too far away from the campsite 🏕️ the coastal walk is so close to the campsite and there is a beach only a 10 min walk away which is lovely to swim at, just remember your sandals/flipflops for rocks! 🪨 there’s lots of wild life to see and it’s so gorgeous at sunset - the pub is a 45 minute walk away too so what’s not to love ?

Perfect base for our coast path walk. we stayed in a pod and it was warm and well equipped with fridge microwave and mini radiator. Toilets and metered shower were clean and just right. Thank you!

Penrallt Coastal Campsite is a terrific find along the Llyn Peninsula's norther coast and conveniently sits along the Wales Coastal path. The site hosts glampers and campers alike providing glamping pods and facilitating campers by way of campervan and tent pitches. Fridges and a microwave are available together with showers and toilets and 5 minutes spent talking to the hospitable site owner is always 5 minutes well spent. Good find, especially for those planning a stopover along the coastal path. At the time, the camp site was happy to let well behaved dogs.

We come back every year. This campsite is just how we like them to be - quiet, never overcrowded, with lots of space left for games in the middle of the field. It's a 2 min walk to the cliff top to see the sea and there are never any midges due to sea breezes (!!) A 5 or 20 minute walk to the nearest lovely pebble or sandy beaches. There is a really different and creative play area for kids. Who wants a boring old standard climbing frame when you can sit in a boat or swing on a buoy?? Much better :) We love Pete who is always welcoming and helpful. The entrance to the site is brilliant as he makes fantastic, quirky, artistic displays of his beach clean-up finds - colourful buoys and nets and driftwood....we love it - it makes us smile whenever we come into the yard. There is a strong environmental message to the site - hence lots of recycling facilities and messages about water saving, chemicals etc The toilets/washing areas are basic, but well equipped and always clean. Fires possible as long as above ground - ie not spoiling the grass. Like minded folk will love it - you know who you are! It's a special place.
