Liked A great site, probably the best we have ever stayed in. Everything was spotless, the staff great, the facilities were great and the site well laid out.
Disliked Please lengthen the time the lights are on in the facilities. The lights turning off every few seconds while having a shower was annoying, but the showere were great.

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.
