Pentre Du Camping Club

Pentre Du Camping Club can be found in North Wales, just a couple of miles inland of Colwyn Bay. And those couple of miles make a real difference. While you may not have views of the sea from your pitch, you’ll have far reaching ones of rolling countryside. This is a peaceful place, away from the hustle and bustle of the seaside in summer but close enough to visit. It also offers a very much more organic kind of camping than the holiday parks on parts of the coast. Here, it’s tents and campervans only in a field on a farm where you have plenty of space and a campfire at every pitch.

The camping itself is simple stuff and, if that’s how you think camping should be, you’ll love it here. Your pitch fee gives you a spot in a grassy meadow that’s surrounded by hedgerows and trees and blessed with beautiful views. You’ll have access to toilets, showers, and washing up sinks, which are all provided in modern-rustic cubicles and kept immaculately clean. And, apart from lovely hosts who’ll do whatever they can to make your stay as enjoyable as can be, that’s about it. There’s no WiFi, no electricity, no clubhouse – and, according to the rules, no noise after 10pm.

You are also getting a great base from which to explore this part of the world. There are footpaths straight from the farm – including a great route up a nearby peak from where you can see the sun go down over the sea – and there’s more good walking nearby. Try the North Wales Path, which passes close by or head towards the sea to join the Wales Coast Path. And whether you’re walking or not we’ll wager you’ll be headed that way anyway. The only question is – which beach will you choose: Colwyn Bay, Rhos on Sea, or Llandudno? All are within easy reach.
