Liked: Graham (Host) was absolutely amazing, couldn't thank him enough for his hospitality, great guy. And will revisit again for certain. He made our stay very relaxing and enjoyable. If your looking for a quiet campsite in Bethel or the surrounding areas which us close to amenities then this campsite is ideal. So we arrived and couldnt be anymore happier with the location and quality of the campsite. My mate and I drove to Caernarfon, great town shops, pubs, tescos etc. We completed Snowdonia and distance was roughly 15 minutes drive from campsite. Kind Regards Guy and Rich
Disliked: Nothing..

Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: I went to Gwyndy as an escape from the city and to see the stars - I loved the bit of piece and quiet I had on my night there. I didn't get to see the stars but that was my fault - I was too exhausted after a day of walking. There was a busy service station about ten minutes away by car (maybe less, can't quite remember) - with all the usual services/inc Greggs, Subway, Sainsburys. Graham the owner introduced himself in the evening - a friendly man. I'd return and reccomend.
Disliked: nothing I disliked
