What customers say

This is a highly-rated site, particularly praised for its generous pitches, immaculate grounds, and friendly, helpful staff. Visitors enjoyed the fishing facilities and the swimming lake. The on-site bar and cafe received positive mentions for food and atmosphere, though some noted limited opening hours during off-peak times. While generally clean, a recurring point for improvement is the number and finish of toilet and shower facilities. Despite these minor drawbacks, many visitors expressed a desire to return.

Tanneth G.

Madoc Lake non-electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Peaceful, Beautiful site. Spacious, very well maintained pitches. Friendly staff. Bar and pizzeria, with a covered outdoor area.
The whole group enjoyed the swimming lake, paddle boards and swimming. Youngest of the group now wants to take up fishing .
We loved the goats roaming round.

Disliked Not many showers an toilets so you need to be semi self sufficient. The showered by the lake were left in a right mess after day visits used them. But cleaned in the evening.
Could do "check-in" parking bays as when we arrived the car park was full and hard to park up, check in and drive(reverse) with a car, trailer and large van .
Benches around camp could do with repair or replacement before someone gets hurt.

Emily W.

Madoc Lake fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (waterside)

Liked Very nice campsite, pleasantly surprised at how quiet the campsite was. We stayed one night on the serviced pitches, it was large and had a good amount of space between other pitches! The swimming lake looked lovely too. We had a take away toasty and full English from the onsite cafe and it was brilliant! Good service and quality ingredients used. Shame the bar and pizza shut a little early for us but it looked good too!

Disliked If we were staying longer it would have been nice to have some sort of rack/drying area by the washing up sink.
The toilet and shower could have been a bit better, in cleanliness and quantity but perfectly useable and close to pitches. Understably would be difficult to keep clean being next to the grass pitches and dry ground, sliders in the shower alleviated and issues.

1 bedroom camping pod (no pets)

Liked The pod was luxury and filled with everything you needed for an overnight stay. It’s was spotless and spacious I would definitely stay again great onsite facilities

Disliked 2 adults and 2 kids. 2 kids slept on the fold out couch bed which they said was uncomfortable and the patio curtain wasnt black out therefore the minute the sun was out it was daylight in the kids sleeping area from 6am which impacted the stay a little the next morning.

Laura M.

Madoc Lake fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (waterside)

Liked Pitches are amazing, full hook up, water, picnic bench and fire pit each. Lots of space for car parking. Amazing views and calm atmosphere. Lovely car area with little play area and live music on the Saturday we stayed. Friendly staff.

Disliked The facilities need cleaning and restocking more often. They need updating. Showers could do with a revamp and maybe more of them.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. The toilets do get checked and cleaned every hour, it is disappointing that some guests do not leave them as they should and that they decide to take all of the toilet rolls.
