Explore the unparalleled beauty of Snowdonia National Park within our well-appointed, family-friendly site. A warm welcome awaits you at our working hill farm near the small picturesque town of Dolgellau. Our quiet park has grass and hardstanding pitches available with or without electric. Visitors can wake up to a view of the mountains!

Whether you are looking for a relaxing retreat or an adventurous holiday, Llwyn yr Helm is the perfect base for experiencing the raw beauty and thrills of Snowdonia National Park.

Our newly refurbished reception building is an attractive and useful hub for all of our guests. We have comfortable seating for you to relax in while you pour through useful local information, read a book from our book borrowing service, or just enjoy our free reception WIFI to touch base with home and check your emails.

The shelves in our shop stock every day essentials as well as locally sourced produce that we think you may enjoy. We will happily freeze your ice blocks in our freezer at no extra charge.

New in 2020, our centrally located facilities block is nestled within the natural curve of our landscape and consists of disabled/family rooms, male and female showers and toilets, washing-up sinks and chemical waste disposal point. We also have a conveniently located drive over waste disposal point.

There’s nothing worse that trying to dry wet clothes in a tent, so if your day out exploring involves getting wet and dirty, or even if you just want to go home without the washing pile? Our useful laundry has a coin operated washing machine and drier and is open 24 hours a day, throughout the season.

Our characterful touring field extends to four acres, sectioned-off into three separate areas by hedges and traditional Welsh dry stone walls. Each pitch is as unique as the guests that stay with us. We have a combination of electric and non-electric pitches on a variety of hardstanding and luscious grass bases.

Being a family friendly caravan park, we have an outdoor play area to entertain young family members, alongside a small playing field ideal for a family game of football. We also encourage natural play in our nature areas as well as promoting conservation.

Being a working hill farm, we also encourage you to take an interest in our friendly farm animals during your stay. Collect your own eggs for breakfast, feed our pet lambs and watch the playful goats while you learn about the various breeds of animals on the farm.

We pride ourselves on being a dog friendly park and well behaved waggy tailed friends are as welcome as you are. All we ask is that you keep your dogs on a lead within the park and clear up any mess.

We also have a designated dog exercise area within the park and a selection of dog treats and eco-friendly poo bags available to buy at our shop.

Great campsite!

Ashby, Malcolm - 16/09/2024

This was our first visit to Llwyn yr Helm and we weren't disappointed. It was relatively quiet but we were there out of the school holidays. The shower and dishwashing area was immaculate. We didn't see inside the ladies and Gents separate areas as they were locked and out of use, probably because there weren't too many people onsite. A good idea, save all the extra cleaning! We didn't use the reception area, other than checking in where we got a very friendly welcome, and we didn't use the laundry area. But all-in-all we had a very enjoyable two night stay, apart from the weather, but it is in Wales you know!

Cosans, Trudy - 31/08/2024

5

Brilliant camping at Llwyn Yr Helm. Cannot fault the owners, they couldn't have been more helpful and accessible. Would recommend as the best stay we have had so far. The facilities are the best I have seen and used. Clean and up to date shower block. Background music whilst you shower, wash up. Nice touch. Helpful to me with our booking, phoning me when a pitch came up as promised. Scenery is out of thus world. Loved every minute of this trip.

Amazing campsite & weekend!!

Hart, Katy - 30/08/2024

5

The stay was perfect from start to finish, facilities are 10/10 everywhere was spotless, even better that the toilets and shower block was always toasty warm ☺️ We stayed on a secluded decked pitch which was fantastic, the decking is a great idea as it allows any rain to fall through and there’s no mud. We brought our dog and he loved the dog walk field, being a water obsessed labrador he was quick to find the access into the brook 🤣 could not fault the staff always very friendly and happy to help! Overall fantastic stay and we will certainly be coming again soon!!
