We stayed in a campervan in a small field next to the Hall. The camping amentities, toilets and showers, were spotless and cleaned constantly. The single rail train track running next to the hall did not bother us re noise and we loved it, taking the coastal rail route for nights out in Machynlleth and Barmouth. We enjoyed the tasteful cafe open in the hall all day - great coffee and wifi - and the bar nights with live music, a singer/guitarist.
The scenery is stunning as good as north Wales gets and there's a well stocked village shop.

Wifi for campers, as well as in the Hall, would be a real draw for everyone, including families and is appropriate given the standard of this site and the price point.

Very well put together site, great farm shop and coffee shop / bar -
The owners also own the local shop, again this is a few mins walk but very well stocked.
Really nice site well kept, great for getting the train to Barmouth etc.
Nice Views
Staff very helpful
Toilets / showers kept very clean

Only 2 male toilets / 2 female toilets and showers, which could be a problem - you did have to wait, or someone was always waiting.

Need more electric hook ups, and the bad weather needs hard standing for heavier vehicles as ours bogged down :-(, however the owner pulled our van out and could of been more helpful.

Showers you had to pay by coins (Who has coins today!) perhaps adding £2 to your bill you could get a token?

The entrance can be a bit tricky with a wide vehicle / caravan off the main road so be careful.

The Cafe/farm shop is nice and is only a short stroll from the beach.
The train station is 5 mins away and is the perfect way of getting around, not expensive but make sure you use the app for cheapest tickets.
Don't worry about the noise from the trains, two an hour and stop at 10.30pm.
But make sure you ask what oitch you have before booking.
Take the 10.30 Bus out side the site to Fairbourne, walk to the harbour and get the ferry across to Barmouth and have a fun day and then the train back.
Be aware sometimes you need to let the guard know you want to stop.

I waited over a week to post my reveiw as i waited to hear back from the site.
When we left, i did speak to reception about some things and was just met with ok then, i could see she wasn't interested. I did email the site and would have expected some form of response. I did say that while they advertise a maximum pitch of 8mx8m, they should also tell people what they will actually get as if known wouldn't have booked.
We had the choice of either pitching in the inner grass yard in front of the Tables/beer garden for the cafe/Pub or in front of the toilet block.
We chose pitch 7 Toilet block which is really not suitable for a pitch, my camper is small and only just fitted on the pitch and previous reveiws have stated this is not an ideal pitch.
The lack of toilets on site leads to people waiting outside and also the hand dyers are like jet engines, not ideal in the early hours when someone goes.
If i had know in advance, we wouldn't have booked and i do feel cheated by the fact we had to pay full price, they should be making people aware of the pitch in advance and maybe offer a discounted price.A bit like a concert ticket when it has a restricted veiw.

Not all the locks work on the doors(reported in other reveiws)
Frosted glass is usless as gives no privacy when lights are on.
Two male and Two Female toilets on site is inadequate for the site and only four showers.
No hot water to was hands in block 1 but in the portacabin, hot water but no hand drying.
Obessed by recycling but bins are inadequate and overflow.

I just feel the site have tried to maximise on income over quality and i feel the campers are subsidising all of the new shop/cafe bar when the immediate thing that needs attention is the site facilities. It's kind of like having a swimming pool open at a hotel before the hotel is finished.

We left a day early due to a few things, while the weather was poor that day, if we had been on a suitable pitch and away from the glamping pod we would have stayed.
If i have a complaint at work, my response is that if we don't know we are doing it wrong, we can't fix it.
Looking at other reveiws, there are plenty of postives from people but also plenty of negatives which the site seem to ignore which is a shame as there is potential here.
Luckily this wasn't my main holiday but it could be someones so i hope the site take note.
My reveiw would have been a 6/10 but due to lack of acknowledment a 4/10

The site was clean and friendly..great service

Only problem was the wind which obviously they have no control over 🤣🤣 but apart from that the place is amazing

Hendre Hall has grown beautifully over the years we’ve been visiting. We loved the cafe and choice of treats and drinks, and popped into the new shop, coffee was perfect - thank you!
Great pitch size and we stocked up in the Hall shop. Hosts are amazing and very helpful and we always enjoy chatting about the recent changes.

Location is excellent, right by the beach. Lovely café/pub and near the train station

Fantastic site, very friendly, helpful and professional staff. We felt very welcome and loved the on-site farm shop particularly. View is spectacular, lovely short walk to the beach. Highly recommended!

–

Proximity to the beach and had a pretty level pitch.

Friendly staff
Amazing coffee
Lovely well stocked farm shop
Great cafe/bar which is lovely to sit in or you can take away
Good position near pebble beach
Considering the number of people using the toilet it was kept nice & clean. Cafe lovely & immaculate.

- Their description fails to describe that the pitches are not just next to a train track but also a whistle point where you (& kids) will be woken up by the train late at night & early in the morning by an ear piercing whistle or by the freight train going through in the early hours.
- not all the staff seem to know much about the pitches. we specifically asked for a quiet pitch & when I went to question the one I’d been sent to because of how busy/noisy (they’d actually told me to pitch next to the whistle sign), I asked if I could move up through the gate into a different area. I was told I couldn’t as that was for vans only (it turned out it wasn’t which we only discovered after we’d pitched)
- it is definitely not a quiet site & a family staying with 4/5 dogs that never stopped yapping/barking weren’t asked to quiet/control them even when we raised a concern (we had a dog ourselves who we kept completely quiet).
- only 1 female & 1 male toilet unless you walk up to the other two by reception. It’s also next to impossible to get in with a child to help them on the toilet.
- Showers paying 20p for a very fast 2 minutes of low pressure water. Biggest problem however is there is nowhere to dress as if you step out of the shower to the dry area you are stood in front of the door which has a large slightly frosted window which wouldn’t leave much to the imagination for people waiting outside for the shower. Definitely not family friendly & my girls weren’t a fan at all.
- if you have a child with a disability definitely not suitable if you plan to camp. Facilities very disabled unfriendly & my daughter was completely overwhelmed by the noise & became quite distressed at times.

Big pitches, beautiful views of sea, friendly staff

Only 1 wash sink for entire camp, limited toilets and showers.
