Gwynedd

If you want a holiday that combines the best of all possible worlds, choosing a caravan break to Gwynedd in North Wales could be your best decision this year.

Why Book A Holiday Park in Gwynedd

This enchanting part of the world offers its visitors miles of beautiful coastline, beaches galore, dramatic mountains, rolling countryside, captivating towns and villages, loads of world-beating attractions and activities, fantastic locally-sourced food and drink, and to top it all off, a warm Welsh welcome. What more could you ask for?

We Brits love a trip to the beach, and Gwynedd boasts nearly 180 miles of stunning coastline, meaning it can offer its visitors everything from unspoilt golden sands to windswept cliffs and just about everything in between. Maybe you want a holiday that involves getting active and trying something you’ve never done before? If so, then you’ve come to the right place. You can choose from the National Whitewater Centre and watersports centres in Snowdonia, Padarn, Bala, and Abersoch, which all offer help, guidance, and access to sports such as kayaking, paddle boarding, kite surfing, canoeing, and whitewater rafting.

‘Beach’ might mean gentle strolls along drifting sands while the children explore sand dunes and rock pools before building sandcastles and enjoying a family picnic while soaking up the breathtaking coastal views along the Gwynedd coastline.

The Llyn Peninsula boasts some of the best beaches you’ll find anywhere, so make sure to add Black Rock Sands, Porthdinllaen, Dinas Dinlle and Porth Oer beaches to your beach bucket (and spade!) list. Other beaches worth checking out in Gwynedd include Llanbedrog, Borth y Gest, Nefyn and Barmouth.

Things To Do In Gwynedd

Gwynedd has so much more to offer than just beaches, however. With some of the most dramatic mountainous landscapes you’ll find anywhere in the world, Gwynedd is home to the internationally renowned Snowdonia National Park and Wales’ highest peak, Mount Snowdon, which reaches an impressive 1,085 metres.

Wales’ largest national park, Snowdonia National Park, offers visitors 823 square miles of spectacular landscape to navigate from steep mountains to rolling hills, so no matter what your age or ability, a trip to Snowdonia is a must for anyone on holiday in the Gwynedd area.

Let’s get historical…

Gwynedd has a fascinating history that spans centuries. The large number of castles, stately homes, ruins, and historical sites still around today are a testament to the region’s proud heritage.

Take a whistle-stop castle tour of Gwynedd and see what life was like in medieval times with hugely impressive castles at Harlech, Conwy and Caernarfon.

All are worth a visit in their own right, with Harlech Castle, a grade I listed medieval fortress creating a dramatic silhouette standing proudly on top of a rocky crag; Caernarfon Castle, a fine example of a motte-and-bailey construction; and last but not least, the exceptionally well preserved Conwy Castle.

Days out…

Whether you’re on holiday in Gwynedd with the kids in tow, on a romantic break for two, or attending a reunion of old friends, there is something for everyone, whatever the weather.

Take a seat and let the train take the strain. A trip on the Ffestiniog and Highland Railway takes you on an incredibly scenic journey from the picturesque harbour of Porthmadog to the quarrying town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, with breathtaking views along the way.

Carrying on with the mining tradition, Llechwedd Slate Caverns honours the area’s long traditions of slate quarrying and then brings everything bang up to date with a unique underground zip line, so young or old, this attraction offers visitors a universal appeal.

The infamous Italianate village of Portmeirion is a must-visit while on a Gwynedd caravan break with other Gwynedd towns and villages worth taking a trip to, including Llangollen, Dolgellau, Barmouth, Llanbedrog and Morfa Nefyn.

Gwynedd looks forward to welcoming you!
