Hello, need recommendations for campsites in North Wales for me and the missus. Close to some trail centres and the wild stuff. Also walking distance to a pub (important!).

None of them massive caravanning sites with fun things to do please, we ain't into all that!

[url= http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=5203 ]Torrent Walk[/url] near Dolgellau is handy for MachX & CyB. Pretty quiet, has secure bike store, bike wash etc, & excellent showers. Dolgellau short walk away. £7 as night.

I'd recommend [url= http://www.dolgam-snowdonia.co.uk/camping.html ]Dolgam [/url]between the villages of Betws-y-Coed and Capel Curig. Could be where scruzer is suggesting as well.

You can pickup the Marin from just outside the Campsite, ride to Penmachno and there are may natural trails nearby, If you can find a BikeFax guide there are several routes around there as well.

I'd recommend Bodnant Caravan Park in Llanrwst, just across the bridge from the start of the Marin trail

Cymer Abbey, between Dolgellau and CyB is a nice little spot. Fails the pub test though
