Power optional cement/asphalt and grass campervan campsite
Liked: What a magical place! Great access to the Mawddach trail which is perfect for dog walks along the estuary, stunning views on site and easy connections to three beautiful little towns/villages (Dolgellau, Barmouth and Fairbourne) Sarah was also wonderful, full of very useful advice, kind and friendly and eager to give the best experience possible. I enjoyed the fresh coffee and pastries looking out onto the estuary each morning. Highly recommend and I will be returning there myself!
Disliked: Absolutely nothing- the perfect place.

Liked: Loved the location. Facilities were immaculate. Check in was easy. Communication was excellent. Option to have croissants, pastries and coffee in the morning was an added bonus.
Disliked: The rain! Also we stopped in a campervan area which was close to the road. Not that noisy but we were aware of it. I know there isn’t many other options because of how the site is.
