Best campsites for the Anglesey AONB

Here is our pick of the Alan Rogers Assessors, expert-recommended campsites for the Anglesey Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Anglesey Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty runs almost the entire 201 kilometres of Anglesey’s coast, running through no less than three stretches of Heritage Coast along the way. These are some of Britain’s oldest rocks, and there’s a range of coastal terrain with limestone cliffs, huge sandy beaches, rocky outcrops, heathlands and pebble beaches. All are important for different flora and fauna, especially the Newborough National Nature Reserve which shelters an array of wildfowl.

The area is also attractive to those seeking outdoor activities, including kayaking, sailing, riding and bird watching. Walkers can explore the various trails that run through the AONB, including the Heritage route, Geo Trails and Wildlife Walks, while cyclists prefer the quiet roads of the Lon Las Cymru NCN 8 cycle route.

The AONB features two areas which appear on the Register of Landscapes of Outstanding Historic Interest in Wales. Dating from the 14th century, Beaumaris Castle is a major attraction and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Top Anglesey AONB Camping Options

Fron Caravan & Camping Park
A traditional, seasonal campsite in a peaceful rural location, Fron has panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. From the entrance gate, a tarmac drive passes through a two-acre, level, grassy paddock, which is reserved for 22 seasonal caravans. The drive leads up to the old farmhouse which houses reception, a well-stocked shop, and plenty of tourist information. Behind the farmhouse is another two-acre, sloping paddock with 36 caravan pitches, almost all with hardstandings, and electricity hook-ups (16A). By the farmhouse, a small heated swimming pool is well controlled by the owners and has a retractable roof. Touring caravans and motorhomes not accepted.
Kingsbridge Caravan & Camping Park
Family-owned and run, Kingsbridge Caravan & Camping Park is a haven for nature lovers and within easy reach of several beaches. It has family and adult-only areas to take full advantage of the spacious 14-acre site. Being in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there are many opportunities to observe wildlife, including owls and woodpeckers.
Home Farm Caravan Park
A tarmac drive through open fields and a barrier/intercom system leads to this neatly laid out, quality park, with caravan holiday homes to one side. Nestling below what was once a Celtic hill fort, later decimated as a quarry, the park is edged with mature trees and farmland. A circular, tarmac access road leads to the 102 well spaced and numbered touring pitches. With five types available, there are pitches for everyone; ranging from grass without electricity, to oversized, deluxe hardstandings with electricity, water tanks/taps, waste water drain and TV hook-ups. All electricity is 16A and there are separate well maintained grass fields/areas for tents. Some areas are slightly sloping.
Cae Mawr Caravan and Motorhome Club Site
Its unspoilt landscape but without a sanitary block, Cae Mawr Caravan and Motorhome Club site is a perfect addition to the island's tranquil setting. With its own atmosphere and unique climate, Anglesey will never cease to amaze and inspire you. Near to the caravan site is Traeth Bychan, a small and highly regarded beach that has proved ideal for a picnic or a spot of exploration. Be sure to take advantage of the beach's boat launching facilities. This part of the world also provides a good stopover for travellers going to and from Ireland. The site has 41 (some of which are seasonal) grass pitches and 32 hardstanding pitches, all with electricity 16 amp.
