Pengraig Campsite

1 unit · Tent1 acre · Wales
After a secluded stay on Anglesey? Take a peek at peaceful Pengraig Campsite. Up at the isle’s most north-western point near Church Bay, it’s about as far as you can get from the mainland without actually ditching into the sea. With that far-flung setting comes a stunning sea view – one that can be gazed at for many hours from the comfort of your pitch (a recommended activity around sunset, with drink in one hand and a barbecue stoking implement in the other). See the sea from a different angle on the nearby Anglesey Coast Path or while strolling on the sands of one of the local beaches. The waves aren’t the only gazing material around here – turn your back on the coast for scenic views of Mynydd Y Garn, or bring binoculars for a bit of birdwatching. Once darkness falls, direct your gaze upwards; the lack of light pollution means the stars can often put on a glittering show here. This isn’t a place for folks seeking heaps of facilities and entertainment; the emphasis is very much on peace and nature. Low-key amenities include a drinking water supply, a chemical disposal point and a toilet block (with basins and proper flushing loos). If you want to venture out in search of eats, pub meals and seafood suppers are five minutes’ drive away in Church Bay, and a little supermarket 15 minutes away in Cemaes.

Campsites with campfires in Anglesey guide

Overview

Across the Menai Strait off the northwest coast of mainland Wales, the Isle of Anglesey—home to Llangefni, Holyhead, Benllech, and Llanfairpwllgwyngyll—is a gently hilly region ringed by the Anglesey Coastal Path that has plenty of campground options. Stay in ensuite glamping pods of yurts, pitch your tent at rough-and-ready campsites with sea views, or rent a caravan pitch with electric hookups in touring parks. Hikers, animal lovers, and watersports enthusiasts find a lot to love about Anglesey, a majority Welsh-speaking North Wales region within driving distance of Snowdonia and home to castles and half a dozen Blue Flag beaches. Pitch up a tent in Anglesey to experience campsites with a view, beachside camping, waterside sites and scenic spots to pitch your tent.

Where to go

Holyhead

Set on Holy Island off the western coast of Anglesey, historic Holyhead is the starting point of the Anglesey Coastal Path, as well as a family-friendly coasteering, climbing, and sea kayaking destination. Explore the craggy lighthouse-topped South Stack isle, visit the Breakwater Country Park, and see pebbly Holyhead Beach before pitching your tent at a campsite overlooking the Irish Sea or relaxing in a comfortable glamping yurt with wifi. It's also within driving distance of Rhosneigr Beach.

Dingle Nature Reserve

Carpeted in ancient woodland and close to the Llyn Cefni (Cefni Reservoir), the 10-hectare Dingle (Nant y Pandy) Nature Reserve is home to kingfishers, woodpeckers, and various other species of bird, making it an ideal area for birdwatchers and walkers alike. Visit in spring to see the blooming bluebells covering the forest floor and pitch your tent at one of the neighbouring camping and caravanning sites.

Cemlyn

On the north coast of the Isle of Anglesey, Cemlyn is a seaside village and National Trust nature reserve situated within the bounds of the Anglesey Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Home to a shingle ridge that divides the ocean from a coastal lagoon, as well as several important bird colonies, Cemlyn boasts many circular walking paths and several nearby caravanning spots, camping sites, and motorhome parks.  

Lligwy Bay

An ideal spot for windy watersports such as windsurfing and kitesurfing, Lligwy Beach (Traeth Lligwy) is a wide beach on the north-east Anglesey coast just a half an hour drive from Beaumaris Castle. Surrounded by touring caravan parks like Dafarn Rhos and family-run sites, Lligwy Bay is a family-favourite beach on Anglesey from which you can easily spot dolphins and seals.
