What customers say
This campsite is exceptionally well-maintained and set in beautiful scenery, with many visitors praising the pristine, modern toilet and shower facilities as some of the best they have encountered. Pitches are generally spacious and well-kept. The location is highly regarded for its proximity to Devil's Bridge, walks, and local attractions. Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful. A few minor points include occasional WiFi connectivity issues and the need for levelling on some pitches.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Great site, brilliant toilet and shower facilities, good location
Electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely campsite with great facilities. Modern toilet and shower block which was immaculately clean. Great location with devils bridge waterfall only a stones throw away. The site and pitches were very well kept, perfect place for couples and families. Will definitely be back when we return to Wales in the future.

Nice site overall
Electric grass pitch
Liked Seemingly lovely shower and toilet facilities (see disliked)
Lovely location
Nice site with local walks and shops etc
Shower cubicle has a separate chamber for your dry clothes and towel etc with a bench to sit on
Massive pitch size
Lovely sunset and sunrise
Quite a good price on my opinion for what you get
One of the cheaper sites to bring dogs
Disliked The men’s toilet block smelled strongly, which unfortunately is shared with the showers in one building. Perhaps something could be done about the smell as we didn’t experience it with any other sites with shared facilities
The staining on the floor of the showers
The drains for the showers all share the same path, so other people’s cubicles can have water (and perhaps other bodily fluids) coming in from adjacent cubicles which is in direct line with where you stand🤢
Most pitches we could see were quite uneven so bring plenty of levelling equipment
£7 to pitch a gazebo is too much

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Lovely place. It's peaceful, clean and the perfect place to relax. The shower blocks were always warm and well stocked. Kids 11 and 8 were able to go off and explore a little while we put up the tent. 1pm checkout was fab. We have an 8 man tent to pack up, which to do by 10am as per other sites is a nightmare! Free wifi was a bit hit and miss at times but generally good.
Disliked Nothing. It was perfect for us.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Beautiful location.
Wonderful views, especially from the dish washing point! Freezer and microwave available. Very family friendly, nice play area. Shower block was excellent.
Great tea rooms and a couple of hundred metres from the falls.
The drive in from Aberystwyth was epic!

Excellent site with spotless facilities
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked We have just spent 2 weeks touring Wales and this site was by far the best kept site we stayed at! The pitches were generous and well looked after. The shower block was outstanding- my 14 daughter’s favourite thing about the site!! It had a specific area with plug sockets for your hairdryers and hair straighteners, which of course with a teenager is a massive bonus! The showers were great and always clean. There was plenty of green space around for the children to play and a lovely play park! With the devil’s bridge water walk on the door stop to explore, it was perfect for us. There was very little light pollution so good for dark skies, unfortunately we didn’t have clear skies during our stay.
Disliked That we didn’t book for longer 😀

From the manager: Thank you for your great review. We are happy that you and your family enjoyed your stay with us at the Woodlands. It's a shame that you didn't get to see any clear skies at night during your stay. It's a great spot for it in the right conditions. Hopefully you will come and stay again and get to see the Milky Way.
Second time we have been campingbhere, will definetly be returning!

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Washrooms, on-site cafe, walks.
Disliked Disturbance from a large nearby group and dogs,dogs,dogs.
We were attracted to this place by their prohibition of dangerous dogs and not allowing bookings from large multi-family groups however right opposite our pitch there was a grouping of two large caravans, two huge tents, four vehicles, at least six dogs meaning peace and quiet was in short supply, that many people just make more noise and there's no such thing as a dog that doesn't bark. When I brought this up with the people in reception when we were leaving, they didn't seem that bothered so there does seem to be a disconnect between what they promise and what they deliver.

From the manager: Thank you for your review.
I am sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay with us and felt like the staff in the reception didn't seem bothered by your complaint.
We only allow guests to have a maximum of 2 dogs per family. A lot of families now have family pets which they do not leave behind when they holiday. August is notoriously busy and we have a lot of families staying with us. We do have wardens on our camping field which would have been available for you to raise your concerns to with the potential of offering you an alternative pitch and addressing the situation.
I am pleased though that you liked our washroom, on site cafe and the walks available.
