Stopover power optional cement/asphalt campervan campsite (no awning)
Liked: We were in a van, Views across the estuary lovely, panoramic views from pitches 1 and 2, I wish I had known! site and facilities very clean, easy to collect envelope with pitch number, access to the Mawddach trail, Cregennen lakes, very good website with lots of information, lots to do in the area. Camping area was looking extremely good and better views, we didn’t see Sarah or John but I would imagine you wouldn’t have any problems speaking to them or contacting them with any problems
Disliked: Pitches for vans close to the road, so noise at commuter times but quite over night, middle of June 2023
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thanks very much for your recommendation. We'd love to welcome you back to one of the panorama view pitches which are very popular and only available to book via our own web site.

Liked: Check in process was quick and easy, an envelope with all of our information was ready and waiting which meant we could pitch up straight away. Facilities were fab, clean, tidy and showers were easy to use. There was a lovely walk down to the estuary which was beautiful at sun set. The pan au chocolate’s for breakfast (£2 each) were a great touch and even better that they were warm when we picked them up! Overall a great stay and am looking forward to staying again!
Disliked: Nothing, everything was great!
