Liked: Great location, staff were great, well kept site. Beddgelert a 10 minute walk away. Ideal. Great location for walkers and cyclists.
Disliked: Showers and toilets slightly dated. When heading to site, use site name and not post code as sat nav sends you up narrow road before site (Cambrian way) very tricky in a campervan!!

Clean and quiet campsite, but £55 for one night felt overpriced.

Liked: The campsite is located at a good location nearing Beddgelert, where is a village with good supplies of food and drink. The campsite is also near the starting point of Ranger Path to Snowdon.
The facilities are great with electric pitch, WiFi and clean washrooms. A 5-star campground.

Liked: Beautiful pitch with stunning views, enjoyed having the evening sun.
A great location for exploring, loved that the site had its only little river walk for a morning/evening stretch of the legs for the dog.
Easily walkable to the village where there was plenty of food/drink and shops to explore. We didn’t have time to look into a trip on the steam train, but would love to go back!
Highly recommend the Aberglasslyn Pass walk, which you can do from the campsite.
We also ventured to nearby Black Rock Sands, beautiful beach which you can drive into.
Toilet and Shower block were good, lovely hot shower and kept nice and clean.
Campsite had a family zone for balls games which was nice as it kept it away from pitches and disturbing others.
