Why stay here ...

John and Rose welcome you to Pen-yr-Orsedd on the north coast of the Llyn Peninsular.

The CL is situated on cycle route 43 and just of the coastal path (95 miles of breath-taking scenery). Half a mile from the CL is Porth Widlin and Porth Ty-mawr, an area of outstanding natural beauty with small coves, caves an even a shipwreck to explore. This is the ideal spot to watch the sun set over the sea.

There are many beaches within close proximity to the CL, the closest of which is Porth Oer -Whistling Sands, a beautiful sandy beach with a beach side café. Aberdaron is close at hand with a variety of shops and eateries.

Rose and John are more than happy to supply information on walks and cycle routes, and a map of the area is available to use in the toilet and shower block.

Beautiful spot - a real gem

Pen Yr Orsedd
We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay despite some dreadful weather on arrival! The area is outstandingly beautiful with lovely views from this well run site. Pitches were large and well spaced, the facilities (2 loos, 1 shower) were clean and regularly serviced. We particularly liked the red light display when occupied thus avoiding unnecessary trips! Queuing was never a problem. Nearby Whistling Sands beach is fabulous with easy parking (free to NT members), a nice café and toilets. Aberdaron is a pretty place with all you need to restock, or for pubs or fish and chips. Our granddaughter particularly enjoyed the onsite goats and kids. Rose was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Our stay was too short!

Gem of a site in ideal location

Wonderful site. Another case as below of booking for two nights but staying for five. Would have stayed longer if it hadn’t been the end of our two weeks. This was a trip in my campervan as opposed to my Eriba but would have been equally happy in either unit. This was by far our favourite site on the Peninsula. Tranquil, far reaching views, short walk to the coastal path and close to fabulous beaches. Nothing far away and everything a short drive or cycle ride along extremely quiet lanes. Ideally situated for access to the whole of the area. Good facilities and very well run. Everything a certificated site should be. Lovely owners. Rose is extremely welcoming and helpful. Just perfect.

Peaceful, beautiful site in ideal location

Pen Yr Orsedd
Fabulous location with a warm welcome from John and Rosemary. This site is ideal for cycling on quiet country lanes, catching the coastal bus to Pwelli or Aberdaron and watching the sun go down a short stroll from the site. Booked for 3 nights but stayed for 5 as we liked it so much. Plenty of space between units, excellent toilet and shower facilities and clear signage for recycling/rubbish. Not to be missed is a boat trip to Bardsey Island from Aberdaron - just magical! Take cash, especially change, to spend in the island's café and small pop up shops selling fresh crabs, woollen rugs, cards, books and ice cream. A truly memorable day out.

Gem of a site, a warm welcome on arrival with free range eggs. In a beautiful scenic area with easy access to coastal paths and cycling. So peaceful.

Absolute little gem of a place. If you like a warm welcome on arrival, clean and spacious area to pitch, peace and quiet, cycling, walking, free range eggs, closeness to beautiful coastline/beaches and watching the antics of farm animals, then this is definitely the place to stay. Thank you Tony and Sandra for our memorable 4 night stay.
