This is an absolute gem of a campsite. Stunningly beautiful views that incorporate mountains, the estuary and the sea. Incredibly peaceful in the evening. Lizzie and Bryn were really helpful when booking, advice for travel and arrival and getting set up. Everything was well set up for social distancing and sanitation. Plenty of sanitiser everywhere and a range of options from using your own facilities to reserved bathrooms. We absolutely loved our stay here and would definitely recommend Merthyr Farm.
3. Harlech Castle

Harlech Castle crowns a sheer rocky crag overlooking the dunes far below – waiting in vain for the tide to turn and the distant sea to lap at its feet once again. No further drama is really required but, just in case, the rugged peaks of Snowdonia rise as a backdrop. Against fierce competition from Conwy, Caernarfon and Beaumaris, this is probably the most spectacular setting for any of Edward I’s castles in North Wales. All four are designated as a World Heritage Site. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for specific times and days, including closures.

Harlech Castle (Welsh: Castell Harlech), located in Harlech, Gwynedd, Wales, is a medieval fortification, constructed atop a spur of rock close to the Irish Sea. It was built by Edward I during his invasion of Wales between 1282 and 1289. UNESCO considers Harlech to be one of "the finest examples of late 13th century and early 14th century military architecture in Europe", and it is classed as a World Heritage site.
4. Y Lasynys Fawr

4.5 based on 8 reviews
Home of the author, Ellis Wynne, remembered largely because of 'Visions of the Sleeping Bard', a Welsh masterpiece. More than two- thirds of the external stone walls belong to a house built towards the end of the Elizabethan period. It is believed that parts of the house dates from 1500 which suggests that an earlier construction occupied this site. However, the house has stood the test of time and it is here to be admired.

Went here with my mum (70) and my son (3 next month) and we had a fab time! Spent 3 hours here and my little boy really didn’t want to leave! Staff are so friendly. Very relaxed atmosphere. Animals are so close and fab being able to cuddle the bunnies. Play barn was a bonus when it rained! Would recommend to anyone with young children if in and around Harlech. We drove 50 mins and was well worth it.

We'd never come across this story before...it's a tale of love and war, commemorated in a beautiful statue by Ivor Robert-Jones and located just outside Harlech castle walls. Please take a moment to visit!
