Liked: Lovely, well kept camping field, huge pitches with electric and water. Lovely view of the hills. Nice facilities- showers and toilet part of the club house/leisure facilities so very high spec including underfloor heating. Outdoor sink with hot water for washing up. A really nice pub 10 mins walk away and Ruthin town centre only about 15/20mins with shops, pubs, restaurants, cafe etc. Overall, chilled vibe and would happily stay again.
Disliked: The road noise is a bit annoying but you get used to it.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Lovely spacious pitches. Stunning views, plenty of space for our two young children to run around without disturbing other campers. Pitches are separated by grass and flowers so gives extra privacy. It rained quite heavily whilst we were there and not once did the pitches become soggy with mud.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike about this campsite.

Liked: So clean Quiet Gardens kept well
Disliked: Dogs ( roaming when we arrived, couldn’t put my baby down but asked for them to be put away which they did instantly ) However when we went out they were in our tent licking plates - our neighbours told us. So that’s the only downfall to the place.
