Scenic Beauty and Views
Pros:
"Lovely beauty spot with great views of Puffin Island and also the lighthouse."
"Stunning place to visit, made all the more breathtaking with an incoming storm churning up the sea."
"Beautiful picturesque light house, puffin island to the side, can see the boats waiting to make port in the background."
"This is a truly special place. It must be respected as the natural beauty against the cold hard lighthouse is very striking."
"Beautiful views of Puffin Island from this lovely spot."
"Stunning location, parking prices aren't too bad, and if you are staying in a campervan overnight, it's a bargain."
"Great place to visit with views of the lighthouse and Puffin Island."
"Simply stunning views of the sea and lighthouse."
Cons:
"You have to pay a fee to get to the parking up the hill."
"We arrived in our Motorhome late afternoon and it was still £10 to park for the day even though they stop charging at 6pm."
"Parking is free, it is a nice beach with big round stones on it."
"The price to park has gone stupidly expensive! £12.50 per day!"
"Not much here, the lighthouse is not accessible, the beach is all pebbles."
"Parking expensive at £3 however you can park along the road before the priory and it's a nice 30min walk to the light house."
"Being stung by the expensive parking takes away from an otherwise beautiful place."
"Lovely scenic area BUT beware of insulting private parking charges 1/4 mile from beach site."
Cafe and Food Options
Pros:
"Wow wow wow what stunning beauty 😍 parked up in the van and had food at the beautiful cafe. Absolutely lush."
"We came while on our holiday I thought you could get the boat to puffin Island however we couldn't but it didn't matter the views were amazing, the vegan cake and cream was amazing and delicious 😋."
"Great coffee shop which in itself gets great reviews."
"A must see if you're in the area. Or even if you're not. Only a 2 hour drive from Liverpool/ Manchester areas. Epic views and scenery, great coastal walks. Excellent beach cafe with souvenirs."
"Beautiful vues, so peaceful.. perfect place yo recharge your batteries 🥰 .. plus a great cafe there.. The Pilot House Cafe, seating inside and out."
"Great Pebble beach looking out towards Puffin Island. There's also a nice little café close to the car park."
"This is a fabulous place to visit, dogs are welcome. Stunning views and on a clear day you can see Llandudno from here."
"Lovely place. Loved the lighthouse with views of Puffin Island and the rock pools. Also the lovely little cafe."
Cons:
"I'd recommend avoiding the cafe nearby to the lighthouse."
"We didn't eat or drink there due to the difficulty with the dogs so can't comment."
"Nice little cafe/shop (with a toilet) though prices are a bit steep.... £8.25 for 3 single scoop ice cream tubs without a flake!"
"We got there really early to watch the sunrise which was well worth the early start! Plenty of parking, no facilities open but that didn't bother us."
"Went in the run-up to Christmas so it was very quiet but the lovely cafe was open and did nice coffee."
"The beach didn't have much of a nice view either, and it is covered in stones and there isn't a grain of sand in sight."
"There is a cafe which is reasonably priced. There are toilets at the cafe for customers only (you have to ask for the key)."
"Toilets are closed as is the outdoor seating area, so at present difficult to spend the day there."
Accessibility and Parking
Pros:
"You can drive up to the car park and restaurant easily, but from there to the Lighthouse it is very uneven and difficult to navigate for less abled persons."
"This is NOT an accessible place, pushchairs, wheelchairs and those with poorer mobility would struggle out of a vehicle."
"Great place to relax and explore for a while. Nice little cafe/shop (with a toilet) though prices are a bit steep."
"Penmon Point is a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the sun on a calm day. You will need binoculars to see the birds on Puffin Island."
"The road is quite a tight one so a confident driver is best but its soooo worth it!!"
"Very easily accessible and plan to make it during low tide when you could walk as close as possible to the light house."
"A hidden gem Penmon point and lighthouse is just outside Beaumaris and is just a lovely place to visit."
"Parking is free, it is a nice beach with big round stones on it."
Cons:
"You can drive up to the car park and restaurant easily, but from there to the Lighthouse it is very uneven and difficult to navigate for less abled persons."
"This is NOT an accessible place, pushchairs, wheelchairs and those with poorer mobility would struggle out of a vehicle."
"Penmon Point is so picture perfect although it costs £3 before you can enter their private road."
"It's a lighthouse and puffin island and a pebblely beach. Cafe expensive. Private road. Car £3.50, motorhomes £12.50, coaches £10.00, bikes a 1.00."
"Lovely place. Cafe excellent. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, even to the point that they moved a freezer to enable me to get my motorised wheelchair in the building."
"Home from home for us; I've been coming here 42 years, I'm only 42 years old...! Gone are the days when it was a full half-days drive down from Preston, Lancs."
"Great place to relax and explore for a while. Nice little cafe/shop (with a toilet) though prices are a bit steep.... £8.25 for 3 single scoop ice cream tubs without a flake!"
