Electric grass motorhome or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Well maintained site, showers and toilets were super clean, whole of site and amenities well thought out and lots of little extras like ice machine, fresh eggs and milk available. Hosts were very helpful gave lots of advice and what could be done and how to get there. Access to local bus and trains was easy and value for money. Village just down the hill was lovely and Riverside walk was a pleasure.
Disliked: Main road was a little noisy at times and there was nowhere to drop grey water but we managed with a bucket.

Liked: We liked the facilities which were always spotlessly clean and generous with everything you could need if you didn't have your own- soap, washing up liquid, sponges, cloths, tea, coffee, microwave,toaster, fridge and freezer, ice packs and bags to label to put food in etc.
Friendly owners, generous, well maintained, level pitches. Can't think of anything Leigh and Juliette could do to improve anything.
Disliked: There was some traffic noise but obviously this is beyond the owners control and the site itself is small, with lots of space and was quiet.

Liked: Lovely facilities and helpful owners. Eggs and other supplies available on site, with honesty box.
A walk along the coastal path takes you to Criccieth.
Nice community pub in the village, it doesn't do food though. There's also a very small cabin that sells some drinks and dry goods.
Adult site.

Liked: Fantastic facilities and great location for Criccieth. We walked there and got the bus back.
Disliked: Traffic noise was really intrusive started really early in the morning and made it impossible to sleep. It may be better at the weekend as we think it was shift workers from the local laundry.
