Positiv A beautiful, peaceful campsite! 🌿 The campfire evenings were unforgettable, and the stargazing spot was magical — the night sky was crystal clear. Perfect for anyone looking to relax and connect with nature. Our child enjoyed playing hide and seek in the nature with other children, something kids can't do in towns.

Positiv + Great location close to forest, hills and wildlife
+ The road is a bit narrow so you have to give a way and reverse sometimes, but well maintained with reception and clear guidance.
+ Toilet / shower block. Good cleaning/washing sinks with sensor lights
+ WiFi
+ Fire pit /BBQ cooking
+ Some amazing beaches within 10-15 drive
+ Little lake with free canoe rental
+ Kids playground

The pod/site have all basic facilities with great views, lake and access

Negativ I think some minor improvements can be easily made :

1) I agree with the comments that in the men's block there is only one cubical and shower. When the campsite is fully booked this is very tight if you also add kids.
2) The shower is functional but really hot (no way to change pressure/temperature). The wooden door is not the best for the showing area.
3) WiFi is not strong enough for the lower campsite and also there is no O2 reception. Not a big problem you can walk a few steps to the block.
4) There is a sewage smell at the back of the block which is flowing down the field. Not sure what is the problem but on a warm day you can certainly smell it.
5) The pod has all facilities (the bed is a standard double and not very comfortable but it's ok for a campsite) but I do not think it is cleaned at all. (Check out/check in at 12). Bring some microfibre for dusting and antibacterial wipes
6) I was not able to see any markings to mark the area as we found someone literally park the car with windows facing the pods. I think it would help with some marking to understand the boundaries

Positiv Literally a cute Hideaway in the Hills! Good for kids, with the forests and the little lake.

It is isolated, but it is a hideaway...it's part of the charm.

If camping, ask for the Penthouse!

Negativ The facilities to people capacity ratio isn't the greatest.

Positiv Hot shower, hot water in sinks. Hand soap and toilet available provided. 2f, 1m and an accessable toilet/shower room. Camp fire pits and picnic benches with all pitches. Lovely open clean space, beautiful lake onsite, loved the twisty windy lanes leading to and from the camp, beats city driving. Loved hearing the woodpecker every morning, and watching the dragonflies, even had a frog near the tent which the kids loved. Rope swing in the trees behind the site caravans. Its a walkers paradise. Electric hookup is available if paid with pitch no issues with power supply. Close to a good selection of sightseeing/tourist attractions such as the slate caverns in Llanfair or the waterfalls

Negativ Long drive to supermarkets/fetch basics not at high prices.

Positiv This honestly was an amazing experience.
From the moment we arrived, to the time we left.
The staff were so kind and friendly, the toilet/shower block was clean, and the pitches were well maintained.
We had an electric pitch by the stream, and honestly couldn't had asked for better.
All campers were kind and followed the site rules regarding noise, leaving you to experience the majestic tranquil sound of nature
Set in a beautiful location, the camp site states its getting back to nature, and that you are, but with them sometimes needed extras.
We loved every second of our stay, sleeping sound.

Negativ There was nothing

Positiv Nice natural environment, lovely walks, clean toilets, able to have hook up and camp fire which was brilliant. Plenty of space available. WiFi available. Everyone very friendly. Able to use the camp fire on site and BBQ. Also able to use a canoe! Lots to do on site without leaving in my opinion. Highly recommend.

Negativ There was no phone signal at all. Completely off grid but there is WiFi available if you wished so not really a dislike.

Positiv The location,no dogs,fire pits,swings,slack line in the wood,small lake with free canoe,views,access to hiking trails,short drive to lovely beeches

Negativ The only thing that let the place down a little was the showers,now having said that,they work,there hot,there clean and free so you cant complain,which I'm not,its just this is a honest review, the water pressure is low so the water only comes out slow,but like I said above they do the job,personally I've had worse on other campsites, its just i wanted to mention for others.
