Campsite Finder - Select a County - Wales – Camping & Caravan Direct

Wales packs an extraordinary variety of camping country into a relatively small area. Coastal pitches with sea views, sheltered valley sites and remote moorland spots are all within a few hours of each other, which makes it a rewarding destination whether you are planning a single trip or a longer tour.

The country is divided into a number of counties and county boroughs, each with its own character and its own selection of campsites. Browsing by area is often the simplest way to narrow down where to pitch, particularly if you already know which part of Wales you would like to explore.

Choosing where to camp

The right choice depends largely on the kind of trip you have in mind. North Wales, including Conwy, Gwynedd and the Isle of Anglesey, is well known for its coastline and mountain scenery, while the western counties of Pembrokeshire, Ceredigion and Carmarthenshire offer long stretches of coast and quieter rural pitches. Mid Wales, centred on Powys, suits those who prefer open countryside and smaller, more remote sites. South Wales combines coastal camping with easy access to larger towns and cities, including Swansea, Newport and the Vale of Glamorgan.

It is worth checking the facilities, pitch types and opening dates of any site before you travel, as these vary considerably between locations and seasons. Booking ahead is advisable during peak periods, especially for popular coastal areas in the summer months.
