Cornel Scout Campsite sits at the head of Llyn Crafnant near Trefriw, within Eryri National Park in Conwy, Wales — a 25-acre site on the banks of the lake. The camping area, Cae Cornel, offers four separate campsites, each with its own half-barrel fire, alongside unisex showers and toilets, a multi-use room, washing-up area, fridge and freezer, tumble dryer and coin-fed electricity outlets. The site is owned by ScoutsCymru and run entirely by volunteers, with all income going towards running costs and improvements. Nearby attractions include Trefriw Woollen Mill, the Conwy Valley Railway Museum and Zip World Betws-y-Coed, while North Llanrwst station is a few miles away, making it a handy base for exploring the surrounding hills and valleys.
