What customers say
This well-kept campsite boasts incredible mountain views and a tranquil vibe. Guests rave about the gorgeous setting and easy riverside stroll to Beddgelert village. Pitches are spacious, and facilities are clean, though a bit dated. Staff are friendly & helpful. Perfect for hikers with trails right from the site. WiFi's there, but cell service is weak. Some saw midges & a few found it pricey, but most loved it and want to return.

Would love to go again one day.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked I booked non electric, grass pitch for a family of four, kids ten and eleven and two dogs.
- tent was right next to dog/river side walk.
-we were given an area but choose where we pitched.
-walkable distance from camp to village, lake, mines and snowdon etc. So no driving and parking.
-Parked next to pitch.
-quiet time rules eg music, no noise late night etc.
- separate family area for games so no games next to pitches.
- toilets and showers close by and clean never waiting for long.
-lovely staff and easy check in.
-good wifi
Overall a well kept lovely campsite. A variety of campers but staff ensure everyone every one is OK.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite
Liked De geweldige ruim opgezette camping. We hadden een staanplaats met harde ondergrond en electriciteit. De camping is, na jaren van leegstand, recent overgenomen en heropend. Er is veel aandacht geschonken aan het up to date maken van de camping. Alles is netjes verzorgd en de plaatsen zien er top uit
Het zijn allemaal zeer ruime plaatsen en je staat niet dicht op elkaar, wat zeer prettig is. De sanitaire voorzieningen waren in orde, maar (nog) niet vernieuwd. Ik verwacht dat dat de komende jaren ook aangepakt zal worden. Al met al een prima camping in een prachtige omgeving.

Beautiful familiar homely, a true Welsh Mountain experience : )
Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Great location, beautiful in fact, a dream position sat in the Welsh mountains by the river. A well presented and organised site with all the facilities and really friendly helpful staff, it did feel homely/familiar, as if we had been there before with family/friends, it was our first visit, but it will not be our last. : )

We love to stay here
Powered cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite
Liked We love this site and have been a few times
Disliked We had to cancel our trip the day before due to dad becoming palliative care. I informed the site so they could give our plot to someone else. I was very disappointed that they replied with sorry hope to see you again. There booking says non refundable but they would try and rebook you in. It is very difficult to get booking on this site as we have tried before and fully booked and also went on their cancellation list with no success. I feel this was not appropriate not to offer rebooking.

Powered grass campervan or tent campsite
Liked Great clean and very well maintained sight. The grounds were very clean.
The views of the surrounding mountains are very good.
We walked various routes all from the sight which is great never having to leave.
The local town is a short walk and has lots of good pubs and good food.
Disliked Only slight thing would maybe could do with an extra shower/ toilet block. But showers weren’t busy if willing to wait a little later.
