What customers say

Great views & location for local hikes/sights. Clean, quality facilities, especially showers. Friendly, helpful staff create a welcoming vibe. Spacious pitches, popular fire pits. Mostly great, some road noise & need more amenities at busy times. Highly recommended for outdoor lovers!

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Nice site but would recommend for Tents only, we were in a motorhome and the road was very narrow for reaching and departing from the site
There was a lot of people on the site with it being a bank holiday and 99% of them were using fire pits which were in close proximity of all the pitched units
The facilities were very clean, good powerful hot showers
Ideal base for walkers
You checked yourself in online and we never once knew who actually was in charge of the site,, you pitched yourself up on your dedicated pitch on arrival
No barriers etc

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Location is good. Showers are hot. Site is well maintained

Disliked Impersonal, rules posted everywhere, loads of people crammed in, this is like a factory farm version of camping.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to review our campsite. We appreciate your feedback.

We believe that your review may be somewhat unfair. To maintain the high standards of our campsite, we must enforce certain rules. It is difficult to find a place without any rules, and although these are clearly stated at the time of booking, occasional reminders are necessary. Posting these rules in key locations is the most effective way to ensure that all guests are aware of them.

Regarding your comment about overcrowding, we respectfully disagree. Our campsite has a limited number of pitches, each of which is spacious and designed for individual bookings. We do not place multiple bookings on a single pitch. While our campsite is large, it may appear crowded during bank holiday weekends when we are fully booked. However, we believe this reflects the quality and popularity of our site.

Thank you for your understanding.

Scenic, perfect for access to snowdonia, Barmouth, Mach loop ect

MICHEAL O.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked The staff are lovely, clean showers and toilets, good views and walks in the area

Disliked Some of the higher up pitches are on a slope, wouldn't be an issue going back as would take bigger ramps, so as long as you have think level ramps, you'll be fine, but most the pitches are level enough. The view from the higher up pitches makes up for it though

Recommend to friends Visit again

Jemma M.

Powered grass campsite

Liked Really gorgeous campsite, tucked away from the road and overlooked by sweet horses. Showers were strong and hot and placed in a block with lots of ammenities. Also has a £1 power wash bike wash + bike storage which was super handy.

Disliked It was great that you could hire a fire pit but you have to buy any wood on site this is not initially included in the price. When I pre-booked I hoped I’d have everything needed.

Excellent place to spend time with friends or family.

Liked First time away with my partner ,so a bit of an experiment .
They enjoyed it , that's a bonus.
Site quite and friendly.
Staff were helpful and easy going .
Facilities were basic but good .

Disliked With hindsight we needed to inform site that partner was disabled , put at the very top of site and for my partner this was an issue.

Local attractions

The mountains and trails of Snowdonia, the beaches of Barmouth and the north Wales coast, and heritage attractions like the Rheilffordd Talyllyn Railway and Harlech Castle are all within about half an hour’s drive of Torrent Walk, and Snowdonia National Park has activities for all sorts including whitewater rafting, horse riding, climbing and wild swimming. For gentle strolls, the National Trust managed Cregennan Lakes are about five miles west of Dolgellau on the slopes of Cadair ldris, and the flat Mawddach Trail between Dolgellau and Barmouth along the Mawddach estuary has hiking and biking paths with cracking views. Cregannan also has two lakes for fly and worm fishing, one for brown trout and the other for brown and blue. Head to the coast for Barmouth and Fairbourne, both uncrowded and with miles of golden sand. Barmouth Harbour, at the mouth of the Mawddach Estuary, is where to bag a boat for sea and fishing trips, while Fairbourne is a big pull for windsurfers and other watersport sorts. If sightseeing both seasides, take the Fairbourne Steam Railway from Fairbourne to Penrhyn Point and then the passenger ferry to Barmouth.
