Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Loved our stay here. I could have sat for hours looking at the view.
Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (sea view)
Liked We absolutely loved bach wen, stunning scenery. Next to the beach. .... Kids loved this. Lovely little play area for the kids and fantastic space for them to run around.
Clean facilities.
The chap who greeted us and shown us to out pitch was friendly and welcoming.
Totally amazing location.
Disliked So I don't like to leave negative comments and honestly I don't really even complain, however our last night was very noisy as there was a large gathering with music blasting out until 2:30/3:00am which left us incredibly tired the next day. We chose this place as the reviews were great and a 10pm -10am quiet time was mentioned in the description.
We had four peaceful nights it's just a shame our last night was so rowdy and loud. Other than that gripe a total 10/10

Lovely to stay at Bach Wen, Bakery this time. Great site
Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (sea view)
Liked The position of the camping area. The offer to stay in the Bakery as our tent poles were broken
Disliked The high winds when we arrived, did not enable us to put our tent up as the poles all snapped, but nothing to do with you, just nature.

Dandelion camping pod
Liked Dandelion hut did not disappoint, we also had the weather on our side 🥵 ☀️ everywhere was spotless. Absolute heaven! Beach within a stones throw away if you swim a few feet out you’d find sand under your feet. We spent most of our stay paddle boarding. We will definitely be returning 100%
Disliked I couldn’t fault a thing!
