The Crown Inn and Campsite

Syntes om: Nothing

Syntes ikke om: The website I'd booked on said arrival times 2pm-anytime. I arrived at just before 11pm to a closed pub with no reception. I attempted to ring the number provided and email them with no response. I spoke to other campers at the site and they said the pun had shut at 10pm. I'd travelled 120 miles and paid £40 for a bed in a shed. I was staying over to attempt snowdon via crib goch so I needed to sleep. I tried to sleep in my car which failed and I had to drive 120 miles home at 2am. I've contacted the site and they are refusing a refund and stating they were open when I arrived why is a blatant lie. Do not stay here lying scammers.

Syntes om: Superb couple of nights away with two boys 9 and 6 on my own in a wonderful bell tent lulled to sleep by the River Alwen. Caroline and Richard were faultless in their service, the food was great, clean, tidy and the spot was just idyllic. Alpacas were a big draw for my two and it kept them off their screens (mostly). Definitely return!

Syntes ikke om: Nothing. Lack of wifi was a plus for me at least!

Syntes om: Honestly- we are not seasoned campers, far from it. So when the kids (4&11) pestered us to go camping, I had to give in. I hunted for a middle ground and came across the Kingfisher cabin. You know the saying something sounds too good to be true. After reading the brilliant reviews I had doubts but oh my…. The place is serene, the family are just the loveliest people you could meet, the alpacas are soooo cute, everywhere is spotlessly clean (yes-even the compost toilets) and everything was just perfect. I can’t fault the place! Within 30 minutes of being there, the lovely Molly had taken the children off to feed the alpacas, nothing was too much trouble. The kids absolutely loved it. They were talking about that little experience all the way home. I’m so grateful for the memories you’ve given us. The food in the pub was delicious, especially the blackberry and apple crumble (yum). We will definitely be back. Thank you for an amazing, comfortable stay. Keep up the hard work you do, because it really shows. It’s not often you can see passion shine through like at your place. It genuinely feels like you’ve opened your home to your guests.

Syntes ikke om: I disliked coming home. The only teeny tiny bit of constructive criticism I could give (certainly NOT a dislike) is showers would mean we could have a longer stay with you. And another little table in the cabin for drinks etc would be helpful. I was so worried about the children knocking something over. To anyone reading these reviews and considering booking - do it. You won’t regret it.

Syntes om: What a beautiful place to stay. We stayed in the poppy bell tent, I was a little concerned about the river with my toddler when booking this but when we arrived there was enough bushes and brambles to keep him a safe distance away. Site was well maintained and the tent was spotless when we arrived. I liked the fact they had the pub on site for food and a break away from the rain. Food was nice and they had a children's menu. Although they had compost toilets the pub toilets were open during pub open hours.

Syntes om: Beautiful quiet setting on a river with pub having a beer garden with lovely views of the bridge and river. Composting toilets were kept clean and food at the pub was good with Saturday night being pizza night. Lovely pub and campsite hosts with entertaining pub locals. Good free WiFi at pub but nothing at the camping pitches. Driving in locality: Betws-y-Coed - approx 25mins Bala - approx 20 mins Llangollen- approx 35mins Allen Reservoir - approx 15mins

Syntes ikke om: The drainage could be better on the pitches. After three days of intermittent rain we had churned up our pitch with our campervan and almost got stuck trying to get out

Syntes om: Everything, the family were lovely, the little Shed was cosy but adequate, the campsite was super and the Alpacas were so wonderful to wake up next to. We loved it all. We enjoyed seeing so many waterfalls in the area too!

Syntes om: I rented a bed in a shed, its exactly what it says it is. Its a shed with a bed in it. The bed was firm and comfortable, the bedding was clean as was the shed. It was a bit damp given the bad weather we had been having and i prepared for that taking my own light sleeping bag to put in the bed. I had a perfect nights sleep listening to the sounds of the river running by. The hosts/ staff were excellent, very welcoming and helpful. Facilities on site are minimal, but adequate for an overnight stay. I ate and drank in the pub with friends and had an enjoyable night. I will return.

Syntes om: Forest floor pitch was beautiful and peaceful, surrounded by nature. Good facilities in the campsite and pub during the day. Customer service was 10/10, perfect hosts. We will absolutely stay again.
