Liked: The site is tidy and well kept, we have stayed here in a tent around 13 years ago, it's changed alot for the better since then. Lovely to see the horses and the geese and goslings.
There's an ESSO garage at the top of the narrow road on the main A road plus a Starbucks

Liked: Fantastic site with all the amenities including washing machines and tumble dryer.
For those tenting there are even fridges and freezers for anyone to use
Plenty of showers (clean)
Toilets clean.
If you fancy a walk I can highly recommend the walk which is about 400 yards away which takes you along a stream with fantastic rapids
Highly recommended
Disliked: Couldn’t spend more time there😡.

From the manager: Hi there, the staff is not bound to the office, they have to check the field, display tickets on the pitches, and other duties specific to campsite, but they are always there to help if you need them, you just have to call, we have phone numbers displayed for you to call if needed.
As per the rubbish, it is bound that at a point the rubbish will overflow especially when there are a lot of campers, but it was always taken care of as soon as possible, it was never left for the next day!
Amazing site would highly recommend plenty to do around the area

Liked: Nice independent campsite. Great facility's inc bike storage if needed, loads of showers, clean and warm toilet block. 15 min walk from Dolgallau. Great selection of buses to choose from to get you further with out using your car. i.e Barmouth ,Porthmadog , Aberystywth. Only 5 min walk from the fantastic Torrent Walk. Will be back to see it again hopefully with a bit more water running but lovely 3 mile circular walk from the site.
