Fully-serviced grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Location, close to Plas Menai and the Menai Strait. Quiet site and well spaced pitches. Nice and level. Basic but clean facilities.

Disliked: Not a reflection on the campsite but unfortunately my stay was marred by 2 loudmouth scumbags who decided to pitch up a metre from my tent with 3 yappy dogs and who talked non stop till 1am. I booked an Airbnb for the last 2 nights of a 5 night stay and when returned to collect my tent they'd left various piles of dog dirt right in front of their pitch. Dirty skanks.

Fully-serviced grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Lovely warm welcome made us feel at home, despite it only being a small site there is plenty of room on the pitches which are pretty much level. Nice and quiet but easy access to the local attractions. Will certainly stay here again if we are visiting the area.

Fully-serviced grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Excellent campsite. Clean, quiet and good facilities. Lovely level grass field to park up at and close to so many amazing places to visit. It proved invaluable as a base camp for our holiday. Owners were helpful and friendly. Horses, sheep and chickens were an added bonus.

Fully-serviced grass motorhome pitch

Liked: This is a lovely peaceful and safe place to stay. The owners are lovely and always happy to help. Beautiful field opposite with the most friendly sheep ever. Clean toilet and shower facilities. Adults only so you can really switch off and relax. Its set in a quiet little town but handy for everywhere if you want to go off exploring. I will certainly be going back for another visit. Oh and you can get lovely farm fresh eggs too :-)
