Ynysgain Camp and Holiday Centre, Criccieth, North Wales is a Girlguiding Cymru camp and holiday centre set in the beautiful surroundings of Snowdonia National Park and near Criccieth in Gwynedd. There is a beach a short walk from the site and Criccieth is about half a mile further, along a cliff path.

Ty Ni (The Brownie House) is equipped for 12 plus 4 adults and consists of a common room, dining room, spacious kitchen, two bedrooms (each with three double bunk beds), a Guiders bedroom with two double bunk beds and a bathroom with three showers, basins and WCs.
