Liked Really nice and convenient location;

Took the train from Llanfair to Welshpool and walked to Powis Castle, then back and walked around Welshpool before catching the train back to Llanfair - nice day out!

Went to Harlech Beach, very nice and easy to get to with none of the hassle of Barmouth.

From the manager: Dear James,

Thank you very much for your lovely review!
We're so pleased you enjoyed our location and found it a convenient base for exploring the area. It sounds like you had a fantastic day out on the heritage railway to Welshpool, with time to visit Powys Castle and explore the town before heading back.

We're also delighted to hear you enjoyed your visit to Harlech Beach. It's a beautiful stretch of coastline and a favourite with many of our guests.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. We really appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for another stay and more adventures in the area soon!

What customers say

This is a highly-rated, immaculate site with exceptionally clean, modern shower and toilet facilities described as some of the best experienced. Guests praise the friendly, helpful staff, beautiful riverside location, and well-maintained grounds. The site offers a secure dog field, a children's play area, and convenient proximity to a local pub. A few minor points mentioned include occasional road noise and lighting levels for light pollution, with one reviewer noting a need for grab rails in showers.

Liked Amazing! Superbly well kept, the owners were super friendly, they kept the site so well, staffs clean the facilities multiple times a day, always fresh and clean at all times. The river was great, my children (3&6)had so much fun here, couldn’t get enough of the splashing, the playground was great, a proper playground not just a couples of swings and slide. We have thoroughly enjoyed our 5 night stay and will be back! Highly recommend!!!!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Mr Davies,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations.

You requested a pitch opposite the washrooms for convenience, which is why that location was allocated to you. Regarding the concern about vehicle engines being left running, Rebecca, our warden, did not offer to put up signs discouraging this, as it is a very rare occurrence on park. Our customers are very respectable and we have never seen an engine running as they usually park. Had the issue with parking outside the recycling area been mentioned to us at the time during your stay, we would have been more than happy to speak with the driver directly and address the matter immediately.

We do appreciate your comments, as they help us continue to improve the experience for all guests.
With kind regards

From the manager: Dear Sean,
Thank you so much for your kind feedback. We’re delighted to hear you found Riverbend clean and you were happy with our warm welcome.

Unfortunately, the torrential rain just before your arrival had caused some temporary surface water on the original pitch you were allocated. While conditions were extremely challenging due to the weather, we’re really pleased our staff were able to act quickly and offer you an alternative pitch nearby .

Our team always try to make sure guests are as comfortable as possible, and it’s lovely to hear their help made a positive difference to your stay. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope to welcome you back again soon for some sunnier camping weather!

Local attractions

One very fine way to visit Welshpool involves steaming in courtesy of the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway, from Llanfair Caereinion (15 minutes’ drive). Once in town, you can continue the historical theme with wanders round the Powysland Museum and tours of Powis Castle, a medieval fortress housing the treasures Robert Clive brought back from India; both are half an hour by car. Treasures of different kind surround Gregynog Hall, also half an hour away: 750 acres of estate include Grade I-listed formal gardens and a nature reserve of ancient oak woodlands where you might see hares, wood warblers and horseshoe bats. Mazes, myths, mine descents and craft workshops are on the menu at King Arthur’s Labyrinth in Corris, 45 minutes away, along with transport nostalgia at the steam railway museum. If it’s a vintage seaside experience you’re seeking, beetle over to Barmouth (50 minutes) for wide sands, safe seas, donkey rides and candy floss, or for something stranger, make the hour and 10-minute trip to Portmeirion, a fantastical Italian fishing village with a scifi past. Depending on which way you point yourself, an hour’s car journey can take you hiking round Lake Bala and rafting upon it, or rambling the high ridges of the Stiperstones National Nature Reserve in the Shropshire Hills.
