Gwern-y-Bwlch Caravan and Motorhome Club Site

Alan Rogers Review of Gwern-y-Bwlch Caravan and Motorhome Club Site

Gwern-Y-Bwlch Caravan and Motorhome Club site is a gem of a site in a lovely setting, lost in Mid Wales between Snowdonia and old Montgomeryshire. The site features terraced pitches, some with splendid views across the valley. You'll soon find the pace of life slows to a relaxed stroll in this part of Wales. The caravan park is an ideal base for country pursuits like birdwatching or fishing. Don't forget your binoculars - the RSPB has reserves at Lake Vyrnwy and Ynys-Hir. A conservationist's paradise, with a bird hide and feeding station on site - watch out for the red kite in the area. The site has 34 mostly hardstanding pitches (some seasonal) all with 16 amp electricity.

Gwern-y-Bwlch site has proved ideal for anglers, who often try their luck at the Llyn Clywedog reservoir, or in the Dyfi River. If you fancy sea fishing you can book trips from the harbours of Aberystwyth or Aberdyfi. Walkers will find the Ffordd Glyndwr long distance footpath passes the site. Further walking is available through the local woodland of Llanbrynmair that was developed by the Forestry Commission.
