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.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Stunning location. Perfect for outdoors activities.
Powered grass campervan or tent campsite
Liked Absolutely beautiful location with stunning views in every direction.
Lovely walk in to the 'chocolate box' village where there are cafes and pubs.
The showers were powerful and a good temperature.
The WiFi was surprisingly good, for such a rural location.
Very quiet at night. Superb stargazing available with no light pollution.
Disliked Facilities are very 'functional'; felt a bit like an outdoor bounds centre of my youth. There were bugs everywhere and could do with deep clean in my opinion.
The facilities layout is a bit odd; the showers are on one side of a big building and the toilets on the opposite. This wasn't terrible but was unusual.
Could do with a children's playground.

Lovely friendly staff, very clean toilets…
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Lovely friendly staff, very clean toilets & shower blocks. It was easy to access & leave the site & the views were amazing. Having someone drive around periodically to keep an eye on things was brilliant. It ensured that people camping on their own felt safe.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite
Liked Everything! This is a FANTASTIC campsite and we will definitely be back. Absolutely beautiful. Big spacious pitches, idyllic setting, friendly staff….. perfect!
Disliked We didn’t ‘dislike’ anything, it was perfect. To make it even better, it would be helpful if the campsite had a small shop - just to get bread and milk! Also we were very close to the toilets/showers, but if we were further away, it may have been an issue at night!

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked beautiful clean campsite with beautiful views
Disliked People kept cutting through our pitch to get to the loos which stressed our dog but not really the campsites fault. I think I'll ask to be less close next time. It is a little expensive.

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 grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked This is a really good, clean, well-managed site in an absolutely fantastic location. There's easy access for mountain walks and lake swimming, and the village of Beddgelert is very nearby for any forgotten essentials.
Disliked If you prefer a smaller more sociable site this might not be for you. And there aren't quite enough showers for the size of the site, especially as one of other block always seemed to be being cleaned at any given point in the morning.
