Tyn Cornel riverside campsite

Tyn Cornel Camping

Croseo/Welcome to Tyn Cornel.  If you’re looking for a relaxing country riverside campsite that caters for tents, motorhomes and glamping, Tyn Cornel Camping fits the bill.

We are nestled right on the banks of the River Tryweryn in the foothills of the Arenig Mountains, the southern side of Snowdonia (now named Eryri the original welsh name). If you are looking for a country camping spot, love wildlife and the outdoors and want to be close to Snowdonia National Park, we think you will like it here. The location is special, the scenery is unspoilt and stunning, we are 4 miles from the nearest town called Bala in North Wales and are situated under the Dark Skies of Snowdonia National Park’s vast expanses of undisturbed landscape which sees little to no light pollution allowing for truly exceptional dark skies and quality night air.

Our facilities cater for tents, caravans and motorhomes. We offer traditional grass pitch camping, hard standing electric hook up camping and glamping pods, all available to hire.

 There is lots of space for the kids to play, and we provide a peaceful grassy spot with a picnic bench and fire pit.  Onsite we have a little shop and our Wifi is free.

"Great campsite. Loads of choice where to pitch, good fire pits, lovely owners, nice vibe. The nearby (2 min walk) rafting place is great to go and see. Bala is useful and nice too. Immaculate and spacious bathrooms. Shame about the amount of midges in the evening."

Outdoor Life

If you’re after some river action – kayaking, canoeing or whitewater rafting, you can’t beat our location.  Our riverside walk takes you from the campsite to the popular National White Water Centre in just five minutes. The outdoor adventure needn’t stop at the riverbank though. If you like hill walking, mountain biking, road cycling or rock climbing the fun is close by.

If you enjoy exploring at a more sedate pace, there is plenty to do within easy reach. The market town of Bala and the beautiful Llyn Tegid (Bala Lake) are only 4 miles away from the campsite. The North Wales coastline, with its gorgeous award-winning beaches, is also nearby and you’ll find it hard to choose which castle or narrow-gauge railway to visit first.
