Just got from shell island in North Wales.wasnt expecting much but we absolutely loved it.site amenities are excellent good shower block.cafe is brilliant for breakfast and meals all day and the pub is well stocked and reasonably priced.they also have a camping shop gift shop and a little convenience store as well.best thing is you can camp where ever you like we were in amongst the sand dunes.fires are also allowed on the 3 beaches and raised of the ground on the site it self.best thing is the roads are excellent putting you in the middle of some of the best riding roads Wales has to offer..and only £9 per night just get back before the tide comes in Very Happy
Well worth staying there 9/10 Thumbs Up

Hope the toilets are better now than they were in the late 70's!

Cool, I was looking at other sides around Snowdonia, this sounds spot on!

They apparently have another rule - they don't accept groups of any kind. We had thought about going there on the BCF Wales trip last year, but found this out. Still, sounds like a good option for one or two.

The first and last time I went to Shell Island my group got turned away because we were a group of young adults. Worth ringing ahead before planning a trip.

Yep, I booked it last year, but they cancelled the booking when they found out it was a group of guys only*, even though Az brought the misses.


*may have been because everyone was from BCF.

I was there with a group of 20 bikes and there wasn't a problem. But the group was mixed
