 What can we say that’s not already been said! First time visitors and having been campervanning for many years this was our first outing in our touring caravan.
We received a really warm welcome from the very charming Pat, before John guided us in to our pitch. There are 2 touring fields and both are kept in pristine condition. The toilet and shower block is immaculate. It’s 20p for a nice long shower and Pat can supply you with as many 20p pieces as you need.
The site is on a very quiet single track lane, there is hardly any traffic at all.
The walk down to the coastal path takes around 5 minutes. This path is absolutely breath taking and if the tide is out you’ll be on the beach in 20 to 25 mins. If it’s in you have a bit longer to walk to the village where you can access the beach from there. Add another 10 mins 😊
In the village are a couple of pub/restaurants, a hut on the beach selling ice cream and pizza (don’t miss this), a chippy (awesome) and 3 cafes. There’s also a decent Spar shop for groceries etc.
To be honest, this is all we need and for us, it’s our idea of heaven. We walked the coastal path into the village every single day. Our two dogs loved the walk, and got very excited at the beach and the sea.
This was our most perfect holiday ever.
Thanks Pat and John, you definitely score a well deserved 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely quiet site with beautiful views and plenty of walking from the site.
Sad that the direct path down to the coast from the site is closed due to a landslide but the diversion is not too onerous.
Well maintained by a very friendly couple.

Spent 3 nights here in our camper van and couldn’t fault it. Lovely and quiet with fabulous views and the toilet facilities were immaculate. John was more than happy to help us out when we needed him and next time we visit, I would love to have a cup of tea and a chat with Pat. She was just so lovely!

Having visited this site for the past 43 years, I think it deserves a mention. We began in a tent, then caravan now static van. The best site on the Llyn. Views stunning, many walks, which have improved over the years. The site is situated above a small cove, with a lovely walk down through a pretty gorge to the cove. The site facilities are second to none, so clean. The owners are very helpful and friendly (that's why we return year after year) The children now grown up, still return. Its got a magic all of its own. Quiet and peaceful. What ever the weather you will not be disappointed. This is also a working farm

A long journey to get there but boy was it worth it! The 2 field site is fairly compact but nicely laid out with modern, clean facilities. (This site could be too quiet for families with young children unless they can make their own entertainment). The site is mostly occupied by seasonally sited caravans but decent tent and touring caravan pitches are available. The owners run a working farm but were very approachable, helpful and chatty. The site is gloriously quiet, being away from roads and crowds. A short 5 minute stroll leads down to a pretty fishing cove still used by lobster boats and the Bardsey Island shuttle boat. You also have easy access to the Welsh Coastal Path with its fantastic walking and stunning scenery. Aberdaron is a 35 minute walk along this path and has two pubs, a Post Office, a Spar shop, souvenir shops and a chippy! What more could you need? All in all a little gem!

It's been a while since I left a review, but after a further 7 years of visiting this site I thought it was about time! The wonderful thing about Tir Glyn, is that apart from the addition of some really useful features such as washing machines and dryers, it really hasn't changed at all. The pace of life is just idyllic here, and seems to just induce a stress free state of mind.
Owners are delightful and nothing is ever too much trouble, whether it is advice you need, or just a chat. The toilet block is always immaculate and paper and soap are provided. The showers are 20p for 3 minutes which is very good value. The two fields are regularly mown and are always in superb condition, as water seems to drain away quickly after rain.
The local beaches are superb although some of the more popular ones such as Aberdaron and whistling Sands, don't allow dogs during the summer months. This is not a major problem though, as many other local beaches do.
The village of Aberdaron is only a mile and a half away and can also be reached via the cliff path that goes from Fishermans Cove (accessed from the site). This is a stunning walk with equally breathtaking views. Once there it boasts a couple of lovely cafes, a Spar, newsagent/off licence and a lovely bakery. There are also two lovely pubs selling great beer and food (I highly recommend the Purple Moose ale in the Ty Newydd). It is a delightful little village with easy access to a lovely beach. The site is also not far from Abersoch, Llanbedrog and Pwhelli
In previous years we have always camped in a folding camper, but this year we broke out and bought a caravan (too old not to have a comfy bed now). We have pitched the van at Tir Glyn for the whole summer which has been fantastic. No towing and no arguments when setting up which is a bonus! It is lovely to be able to go straight from work on a Friday and feel de-stressed the minute you arrive.
My kids have grown up going to this site and have always loved it. I have a feeling they will continue the family tradition for many years to come.
To sum up, if you are looking for peace and relaxation, great walks, lovely pubs and beaches and a slower pace of life, look no further.

If I'm honest, this is definitely a site more suited to the static caravans which seem to make up the bulk of the trade. The site is situated on a working farm on a clifftop with views towards the sea and easy access to the clifftop path.
The toilet and shower block were sufficient, the gents was generally clean and well kept, my wife thought the women's not so much so.
The shed with washing and washing up facilities and the freezers was useful (and contained a swallow's nest complete with chirping babies!).
The approach seemed to be very much 'hands off' and there wasn't any provision of information on the local area until we met the owners on out third day of the stay.
The field did get very wet as the rain continued to persist it down, not the fault of anyone but maybe added to a general feeling of waning enthusiasm as the week went on.
Not sure I would take a tent back there again, but sure it would be fine for a caravan!

Tir Glyn holds a unique position on the Llyn Peninsula. It has the most fabulous views, with beaches within walking distance.
Pat & John Roberts (& family) work & live on the farm, they are always on hand; to offer assistance or just a friendly chat. Nothing is too much trouble. The site is well kept, with grass cut regularly & all other facilities to a high standard of cleanliness.
The site offers everything:- washer room; microwave; freezer (for food & ice blocks). The main shower block offers separate gents/ladies showers, regularly cleaned (offering loo roll & hand soap, 'home from home', the little extra touches).
Considering the current UK weather, we were blessed with sunshine & the odd 'warm shower'!
We had originally booked for 2 & half weeks & extended our stay by a further week, (would have liked to stay longer, if not for work commitments) which I think says it all!. I just hope it doesn't become too popular & we are unable to book for next year.

We stayed at Tir Glyn with a toddler during the first week of July. We joined the campsite with other family members. It was quite a rainy week, but we also had some fabulous days.
It has been a while since we camped but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this site.
There is plenty on offer in stunning surroundings to keep you busy, and we enjoyed wild beaches, coastal walks, visits to historic sites and pottering around the farm and the village of Aberdaron.
The site is really well organised. Everything is very clear and the information available is practical and useful. The toilet blocks, well I wasn't looking forward to re-experiencing these, but they were great.
Really well built, very clean and well maintained, even loo roll was provided so you could avoid the 'loo walk' where everyone knows your business. The site is well catered, electric hook ups if needed and water.
There are washing machines and a dryer available for a small fee too, perfect for us with some wet weather and a toddler to keep dry! The site is really family friendly, but also private enough if you want to just have a quiet time. The Roberts Family were welcoming and helpful, and as its a hard working farm, they were accommodating of our curiosity at their day to day work.
The farm is well located, a lovely cove a short walk away, Aberdaron town can be reached by a cliff top path or a short drive, we had great views on a sunny evening from the coast guard station.
Our interest in camping is re-ignited and I would definitely recommend this site.

Great location and very friendly hosts. The site is very basic, but well maintained. Lovely little toilet and shower block. The walk down the ravine from the site is stunning and the coastal paths, especially to Aberdaron, spectacular. Lanbedrog beach ( dogs allowed) is well worth a visit as is Whistling sands ( no dogs allowed).
We had to curtail our stay but had a fun packed 3 nights and would definitely return.
