Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Smart new shower/wet rooms. Service and food in the pub. Food was tasty and plentiful. Lovely views over the hills from our pitch. Nice level pitches for campervans and caravans. Tents have to deal with a but of a slope.

Disliked: No hot water in the taps in the wet rooms but shower was really hot. May have needed to let it run for a (long) while. No hand wash

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: The on site pub was lovely. The food was fantastic and tasty. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Good location to travel around.

Disliked: Not being able to unpack near the tent so it took a lot longer with kids and a dog. No one on site when we got there. Other campsite users on motorbikes.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely Review. We are so happy you enjoyed your meal with us. Unfortunetely we cannot allow any cars on the tent side of the field as this is for health and safety. Hopefully you still enjoyed your stay with us

If you want a pub and then crawl into your tent then this is for you.

If you’re keen to mix in some cultural time, explore the rugged relics of Dolwyddelan Castle (25 minutes), or tour the towers and ramparts at medieval Conwy Castle (40 minutes). Nip over the Menai Bridge to the Isle of Anglesey (50 minutes), where you can wander the formal waterfront gardens at National Trust - Plas Newydd House and Gardens (55 minutes) and snoop around the 18th-century mansion. Treat well-behaved kids to sightings of endangered snow leopards and red pandas at the Welsh Mountain Zoo (45 minutes). Round off your day by surprising everyone with afternoon tea at The Riverside Chocolate House in Pentrefoelas (five minutes), where you can gorge on handmade chocs and take some home as Welsh souvenirs.
