Chris B.

Meadow primitive grass tent campsite

Liked The facilities ie showers, wash area, even the eco toilets which is a lot better than using portaloos at ‘wild’ camping sites.

Nice pitch sizes, with enough space from other pitches and the night we stayed was very quiet.

A great base for anyone to explore the surrounding areas

Lucy L.

Meadow primitive grass tent campsite (large)

Liked The campsite was beautiful and very tranquil, with well laid out pitches.
The showers and toilets were exceptionally clean and the children loved the 'shed' which was a games room, a place to chill out and had facilities like a fridge, kettle, microwave that could be used by residents.
Very friendly and helpful owners and we loved the resident dogs too!

If you want peace and chill this is the place.

Local attractions

Kick off your escape with a bit of adrenaline, which is exactly what you get on the 500-foot zipwire that hangs over the slate quarry at Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (20 minutes’ drive). The climbing centre in Caernarfon (15 minutes) will add to the heights-themed activities, except you might first get carried away nosing around the town’s 13th-century castle. Slate was once a booming industry around here, which is something you’ll get to know at the National Slate Museum in Llanberis (15 minutes). Llanberis and the former slate quarrying village of Bethesda (15 minutes) are both gateways into the national park… but first, Llanberis has heritage trails for you to tackle before the big national park paths (or a steam train if you don’t fancy walking just yet). When it comes to gorgeous coastal spots, first on your list should be Bangor (10 minutes’ drive), with its pleasure pier, and Anglesey’s beaches and coastal paths (10 minutes).
