FHU grass tent campsite

Liked: Located close to a few areas for walks, days out, groceries, etc.

Disliked: For some unfathomable reason a family, with young children and barking dog, were pitched looking directly onto my pitch when there were 2 other pitches free which would have allowed all parties to have space and privacy(???). Pitches have cameras pointed directly onto them (-was bit unsure about this, as site is barrier controlled for security). I would whole heartedly disagree that you get a good amount of space between pitches, and, the road is DEFINITELY not quiet(-and, this was from a pitch well away from road)! This has gone down on my list of sites NOT to return to!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you appreciated the convenient location for walks, days out, and groceries. We're sorry to hear about your concerns regarding 1: pitch placement -The family had booked after your arrival and had requested that pitch. 2: the cameras- cameras are located throughout the park for the security and peace of mind of our guests. 3: the noise levels- we apologise for the cars passing along the road.

Local attractions

Standing where the Afont Seiont river meets the Menai Strait, Caernarfon Castle (10 minutes’ drive) is a forbidding medieval fortress and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Perhaps best known as the place where Prince Charles was invested in 1969, it also houses the Royal Welch Fusiliers Museum, which explores the history of this infantry regiment. If you’re in a ‘feel the fear, but do it anyway’ mood, you can head to Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (20 minutes), where the Velocity 2 zipline stretches across a lake, allowing you to travel at speeds of up to 100mph. If you are brave enough to keep your eyes open during your flight, you can also take in splendid views of Eryri (Snowdonia). For something less hair-raising, Portmeirion (40 minutes) is a village featuring Italian-inspired pastel-coloured buildings and lush sub-tropical vegetation. Grab an ice cream from Italian gelateria Caffi’r Angel, and take a leisurely stroll through the quaint streets or along the sandy beach on the Afon Dwyryd estuary.
