Powered grass campsite
Liked Lovely location with fabulous views of the hills.
Good size pitches, with water taps near by. The children 16, 16 & 14 loved feeding the animals and visited them regularly through our short stay. Brill little range of necessities in the shop. Super clean toilets/shower/washing up faciclities. hot water and pleasant warm room, with the radio playing was a nice little bonus.

Dros y Bont Decked powered tent campsite (secluded)
Liked Great campsite very clean and peaceful.
The shower block was without a doubt the best and cleanest I’ve ever seen on a campsite. They also have 2 family shower rooms brilliant for when you have kids. The play park was good for the kids and they have a small petting farm with some farm animals also great for the kids. We took two dogs with our group and they have a dog walking field which is a good addition to let the dogs be free and have a run . We camped on the decking in what was like our own little spot away from the main camp and it was great I personally like the sound of the stream running beside it at night. The campsite is only 20-30 min drive from Bala and Barmouth. I Highly recommend the torrent wall about 4miles away tough in places with kids but really fun and beautiful to. The staff where super freindly and helpful from when I rang with a few questions before booking way back earlier in the year to when we arrived on site. All round great facilities and lovely location.

All facilities excellent. But we like it quieter in the countryside
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Flat pitch
Great bathrooms
Easy access
Disliked Being just over the hedge from the playground - we were shattered and wanted peace and quiet, and other people’s children were literally screaming and shouting 10ft from our tent until nearly 10pm!

Perfectly positioned peaceful pitch!
FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Such a peaceful spot but not far from the main road through Snowdonia. Toilets and showers were the BEST I've ever experienced on a campsite! Really quiet, great for families, no loud music or drunk people. Good recycling provision. Thumbs up all round.

Excellently maintained site, lovely owners that are very helpful.
Dros y Bont Decked powered tent campsite (secluded)
Liked The site was lovely and very well maintained. We stayed in a decked porch and loved this idea, we would definitely opt for this type of pitch again as it made for a very level pitch. The shower and toilet block were spotless at all times of the day they were very modern and plenty of available showers. We liked the ease of the fire pit hire this was a nice touch. Perfect if you have little ones as you can go feed some of the farm animals which was really nice. Not far from local shops in the car literally about a 10 minute drive.
