What customers say
A peaceful, well-kept site with friendly owners by a lovely river. Guests loved the clean facilities, roomy pitches, and fun playground/stream for kids. Most were stoked, though a few thought some facilities needed a spruce-up and a bit more polish. Great spot for a chill break.

Not a lot…
Power optional grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Not a lot
Disliked Poor for tent pitches. Pitches on small strips of grass next to caravans. Park in beautiful countryside but you can’t see it as over planted with trees. Tent pitches in shade until early afternoon.

From the manager: There are times when I'm lost for words, having spent time welcoming this retired gentleman to our park. Offering him a quiet spot away from the camping area ( lots of Children) for him to be so critical is simply unreasonable. So its rural Wales with undulating landscape oh and too many trees.
I suggest in future stick to the towns, mix with the kids, truly astonishing comments and factually wrong.

Scenic site with trials all around…
Power optional grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Scenic site with trials all around so if you are a fan of trekking, this seems like a good place to visit. I really enjoyed the river at the campsite to dip my toes into the cold stream.
Disliked Not too many running routes if you are a runner. There are some a brief driving distance from the campsite.

Very quiet site, showers were warm…
Camping pod (family)
Liked Very quiet site, showers were warm and clean. Unexpected bonus of a kettle and microwave. Plenty of outdoor seating options next to our pod. Little stream next to the pod which trickled nicely. Blackout blinds were useful. Play area in good working order.
Disliked Shower facilities needed more hooks for clothes etc but that's more of a suggestion than dislike.
However we were concerned about the bunk beds for our children. They are very narrow with nothing to stop the top sleeper from falling off. We decided to put both mattresses on the floor instead but I don't feel this place is suitable to sleep 4 unless you move the beds.

From the manager: A one night stay here at Cringoed, so disappointed with your comments, For so many years now we have welcomed families back here because the children love it. A modern play area, our own countryside walk and access to the river, Children most welcome far from being unfriendly.
The facilities need more hooks, what a shame you are so negative, really they are are spotless, minor improvements are always welcome but fault finding combined with poor marking is simply unreasonable. The bunk beds are not the biggest but you would have been aware of this before arriving. or booking.
Thankfully so many positive reviews over the summer, hope to see you again soon.
Peaceful gem in a beautiful location.…
Power optional gravel caravan site
Liked Peaceful gem in a beautiful location. Our child loved the park, our dog loved the near by river for a refreshing dip on a hot day and we all loved the surroundings. Facilities are highly rated and extremely clean. Highly recommend.

Power optional grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked We stayed here for two nights camping. A beautiful, peaceful and exceptionally clean site.
The views are breathtaking and the owners are lovely and welcoming.
The showers are clean and hot, it was perfect for our family of 4 and our dog.
The dog exercise field is much appreciated, plenty of room for the kids and dog to run around. We all loved the creek too!
We will certainly be back, the owners were very kind to let us stay a little longer to pack up too.

Would highly recommend
Camping pod (family)
Liked Was in a peaceful location, with a small park, there is a lovely stream that the kids loved to play in, not our usual campsite, as location was quite secluded, need to enjoy driving to get to other destinations, however the scenery makes the drive worth while. The kids had a fab time as did we, we enjoyed family time with the kids playing games and enjoying the open space. Site was clean and tidy, facilities were fab, the toilets were spotless, kitchen and washing machine available, for people to use. Visited the King Arthur labrynth about half hour drive away which is good if you have children. Friendly owners.
