Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: The friendliness of the owner. The small campsite, which feels aimed at small families and walkers. The communal fire pit. A very nice little campsite with 2 lovely warm showers, and warm running water. And 2 toilets. Very clean and neat and a great place to stay. The s2 Sherpa bus picks up not far from here... Or you can drive to llanberis or caernarfon.
