Here at Tyddyn Llwyn we cater for touring caravans, motor homes, tents and trailer tents. All weather pitches and premium pitches available all season. This is our 10th season here at Tyddyn Llwyn and over that time we have been continually working towards making improvements on the site, to the pitches and to the facilites. It's a never ending job and over the last 10 years many of our regular visitors will have seen many of the (for the better) changes. This year finally sees the disappearance of the old 'porta-cabin' shower block and the building of a brand facility including family size shower cubicles and disabled w.c and shower/wetroom, as well as the relocation of the laundry. The park is situated in a large area of partially wooded countryside. Nestled in a secluded location in the lea of Moel-Y-Gest mountain, the privately owned estate extends to some 53 acres in total, 18 acres of which are used as a touring and static caravan park. The parks' location benefits from the close proximity of the harbour town of Porthmadog, as well as the picturesque bayside village of Borth-Y-Gest, both of which are within easy walking distance. The famous beach of Black Rock Sands, which is ideal for water sports and safe swimming, is just a few minutes drive away. We hope you choose Tyddyn Llwyn for your holiday and guarantee you a warm welcome and a pleasurable stay. We look forward to meeting you, whether it be for a couple of days, a week or longer.
