Caravan site with slipway / launching. Wales?

I'm looking for a caravan site on the coast in Wales with launching facilities, for a sib. The easier to get to from west mids the better.

Can anyone recommend anywhere?

Welcome to Penrhyn Bay Caravan Park not the cheapest but excellent facilities, private slipway on site and beach access. large sheltered bay, and decent fishing spots nearby. holyhead harbour is just across the water so easily accessable for sibs.

Newport Parrog Pembrokehire. Camp site adjacent to Harbour. Not cheap especially with hook up but launching is free and you can either launch from the slip or drive down onto the beach and launch in the small estuary. Beautiful area.

Thanks for your replies. Ideally I want somewhere I can leave the caravan over summer so that I can just drive there and back as I need to. Someone did tell me of a place in mid-wales last year but I can't remember the name of it or which town.
