Liked: The scenery & Machynlleth. There's a great bookshop in the town (Penrallt Gallery Bookshop) & sweet cafe (Chakra Cafe).
Disliked: Noisy campers for 3 nights running. Rude, inconsiderate, disrespectful, solipsistic. Unfortunately, the owner didn't really address the issue & I left a day early.

From the manager: Hi Dianne. It might have been nice if you had at least mentioned that I did come down two nights in a row to try and fix this for you. And also gave you a full refund for the night you didn't stay. Unfortunately the campers you had spoken about took offence when you asked them to put their children to bed at 8pm on a bank holiday weekend. Cheers Sian

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: field entrance was a mud bath. Few carpets to try drive over but not effective. Mud track to the pitches. Tun shack for toilets and showers. Only small site but the entrance could gave been dealt with by using stone chippings or metal carpet that are used people stuck in mud.
