Did you know there's an abandoned gold mine in Wales?

25/10/2026

Imagine opening your van doors to a view like this...

The Lake District has some amazing places to stop and take it all in, but this has to be up there with our favourites.

Parked right beside the water, mountains filling the view from the bed and a picnic with a back drop you'd struggle to beat!

We spent the day enjoying the water with a wild swim, a paddleboard and finished it off with the most incredible sunset.

Proof you don't always have to hike for miles to enjoy the best of the Lakes.

How much would you pay to wake up to a view like this?

Stumbled across this little coastal campsite in Wales, and what a find!

Imagine pulling up in your camper, parking literally metres from the sea, opening your doors and having nothing but the sound of crashing waves in front of you.

A rugged stretch of coastline right on your doorstep, perfect for a wander along the shore, and getting the paddleboard out when it’s calm.

The real magic happened as the sun started going down…

Golden skies turning bright orange, then pinks and purples stretching right across the sea. Definitely one of the most incredible sunsets I’ve witnessed from the van!

It’s a proper back to basics campsite, but with everything you actually need. Clean toilets and showers, a wash up area, and fires and BBQs allowed too!

No fancy extras, no entertainment, just an incredible location and the freedom to enjoy it.

DID YOU KNOW THERE’S AN ABANDONED GOLD MINE HIDDEN IN WALES?

This has to be one of the maddest trails I’ve come across in Wales! So many hidden treasures packed into one place.

It started with a stunning riverside park up before heading into the woodland, and honestly, this place just kept getting better!

Moss covered rocks, huge trees, little wooden bridges and some proper enchanted forest vibes.

And then there’s the waterfalls!the trail follows the river through a stunning rocky gorge, with waterfalls, rushing rapids around every corner. The whole place is just unreal!

What makes this place really interesting is what’s hidden amongst it all...

The remains of an old gold mine, abandoned buildings and tunnels hidden away in the hillsides. Mad to think people once worked here searching for gold!

I genuinely feel like we barely scratched the surface and there’s still so much more to discover.

Has anyone else explored here? What did we miss?

Is this the best campsite in Wales?

I thought I’d already found the best waterfall in Wales… then I stumbled across THIS!

Honestly, photos don’t even come close to showing the scale of this place.

You approach from the bottom and before you've even really started the walk there's a solid 9/10 bench with a ridiculous view of what's waiting above.

And it wasn’t just one waterfall, the water seemed to tumble down the valley forever, cascade after cascade, with huge slabs of rock and deep, dark pools hidden between them. Every time I thought I’d reached the best bit, I’d climb a little higher and find another.

Somehow I had the entire place to myself. No crowds. No waiting for photos. Just the sound of rushing water echoing through the valley and so many places for a dip I genuinely couldn’t decide where to get in.

Then I reached the top… and found what was basically a natural infinity pool overlooking the entire valley.

Wild, enormous and genuinely breathtaking. This one completely caught me off guard

If you’re looking for a lakeside campsite in North Wales thats thought of everything… this one’s for you!

We pulled up to a pitch right by the lake with unreal views across the water!

You can wild swim, paddleboard or kayak straight from the site, then spend the evening back at your pitch with the fire & BBQ looking out over the water.

And it’s not just the location that makes this place…

The owners are so friendly! There’s a play area for the kids, a dedicated dog walking area, a little shop for the bits you forget, clean toilets and showers, washing up facilities, laundry and a motorhome service area.

They’ve even got a card operated electric paddleboard pump!

This is the kind of place where you can pull up, switch off and not really need to leave until it's time to head home!

Is this the best walk in the Lake District?

If you want maximum views for minimum effort, this one takes some beating! For around 4.5 miles, the path winds its way beside some of the calmest, clearest water, surrounded by huge fells on every side.

Every turn seems to reveal another view. Tiny beaches tucked along the shoreline, waterfalls pouring down the hillsides, woodland paths opening back out onto the water and mountains rising straight up all around you.

Despite how dramatic it all looks, there’s surprisingly little effort involved. No huge climbs or brutal uphill sections, just one of those rare high reward, low effort walks where the scenery does all the heavy lifting.

There are some gorgeous spots for a dip along the way, and when the water is calm it looks absolutely unreal for a paddleboard.

If you’re looking for pine forests, wild horses and miles of golden sand, this one’s for you!

This place has a bit of everything. You make your way through the forest before it opens up onto a huge stretch of golden sandy beach

The sea was lovely and calm when we visited, perfect for getting the paddleboard out and if you stay into the evening, the sunset are unreal!

There’s a tidal island at the end of the beach with old ruins, little coves, lighthouses and some amazing views… and we even came across wild horses roaming around the island!

The perfect North Wales adventure all in one place! Just remember it’s tidal, so check the tide times before heading out
