Glyn's Field

26 May 2006

Whilst not a naturist site, many visitors to the official naturist beach at Morfa Dyffryn in Wales have used "Glyn's Field" for camping. Sadly, in the last few weeks, Glyn passed away and now his son and daughter-in-law (Dennis and Sue) are getting grief from the Snowdonia National Park Authority regarding the use of the field for camping purposes. Glyn was never much for officialdom and reading between the lines the field was never properly registered as a camping site.

Dennis and Sue have taken legal advice and are applying for a Certificate of Lawful use for tented camping purposes. In order to stand any chance of this being granted they need as much photographic and written evidence as they can get in order to prove continued usage over decades if possible.

In future the field will officially be known as Pentre Mawr Farm, Dyffryn Arddudwy - their bed and breakfast facility can be Googled. If you have used the field and haven't already been contacted by Sue and Dennis then now would be a good time to contact them if they have any evidence that would help their application. The farm contact details are on their website.

Glyn has been a good friend to naturists for many, many years. Dennis shows every sign of following in his father's footsteps. However he is a better businessman than his father and will probably improve and develop the site when a license is granted. Naturists will still be the core business and he knows that.
