What customers say

Guests rave about the spectacular, unobstructed sea and estuary views from most sites. The grounds are clean, well-kept, with top-notch, modern washrooms. Staff are consistently friendly and helpful. Proximity to beaches and trails is a plus. Despite a few notes on steep access and stony soil, most are eager to come back.

Quarry 5 primitive grass tent campsite (four person, small)

Liked Beautiful views and a lovely family friendly campsite.
Love that yot can have a fire and the staff were very kind and helpful.

Disliked We were there during a very busy summer period, it is minor and wouldnt stop me staying again the loos/ showers could have done with an extra check over as soap and toilet paper would run out.
Also could have done with more hooks to hang things whilst showering..

Recommend to friends Visit again

Local attractions

The Blue Flag sands at Fairbourne, which can be reached via the estuary path, stretch for more than two miles. There’s safe swimming for families here, plus oodles of rock pools at low tide, and a variety of watersports. Guests can also hop aboard the miniature steam railway here for the short trip to Penrhyn Point, where a dinky passenger ferry runs to the seaside resort of Barmouth. Walkers should be delighted with the range of rambles in reach: perhaps a day clambering up Cadair Idris or exploring the Cregennan Lakes, a bimble to Barmouth featuring a bridge, a bog and a boat, an evening’s meander to the nearby waterfalls at Arthog and Friog, or a wildlife-spotting wander down a former railway line with views of the estuary. Two-wheelers can get going along the Mawddach Trail which runs from the site – where you can cycle for eight miles alongside the edge of the estuary, stopping for a picnic as you go – or the stonking Coed-y-Brenin mountain bike paths. Other nearby tourist attractions include the surreal Italianate village of Portmeirion, underground adventures at King Arthur’s Labyrinth, treetop fun at Go Ape, the Corris Craft Centre, the Talyllyn steam railway and the Centre of Alternative Technology, which has interactive exhibits on renewable energy, organic gardening and the like.
