Liked: How quiet it was and how peaceful it was. The views were amazing.
Disliked: Rocky ground where I was told to pitch my tent. Also didn’t get told there was WiFi until I saw it on the last day on a notice board in the kitchen area.

Primitive grass tent campsite (two person)
Liked: The spectacular view, the river was lovely to be by and the area was incredible. It was also very good value for money. The wifi by the little kitchen area was very strong which was useful for a daily check of messages. The wildlife was beyond incredible. We had a very lovely time, but the negatives did mean that was slightly ruined.
Disliked: The pitch, if you are in a tent, I would say stay away from this site or bring a hammer and a lot of patience. There was about an inch of ground and then solid rock at all of the riverside pitches that were available to us. This leads me to the next point which is more personal preference- there are a lot of caravans in this site, which are primarily vacant over the week, this was unfortunate because they took up a lot of the good pitches. Lastly, our biggest dislike about this campsite is the apparent lack of care of the site, there was rubbish on the site when we arrived where we wanted to pitch, this coupled with our difficulties pitching made for a less than pleasant welcome. The grass was mowed while we were there which does show care, however there was a lot of dog poo that hadn't been picked up from the adjacent farmer's dog. There were also escaped sheep which were not Rhian's fault but did add to the general faeces problem. It was a pity to have to give 3/5 stars as Rhian (owner) and Ajay (campsite manager) seemed very lovely. We took 1 star off for difficulty pitching, and 1 star off for the rubbish/dog poo. It is a brilliant site if you know what you are getting yourself in for, but we would not have chosen this place if the pitching difficulties were clearly explained beforehand.

Liked: Gorgeous location, picturesque scenery, no phone signal! I stumbled upon this site, as a single parent looking for a break with two children and a dog. I found the site suitable for our needs. Our stay was quiet, my children had the river to themselves, the facilities are standard and just what you need. We brought enough food to last our stay as I wasn't sure of the area. Other campsite members were friendly and helpful with directions to local family friendly walks. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Liked: Stunning location, very little noise and light pollution, amazingly friendly and helpful staff, showers that just bucket hot water at you and fill the shower tray giving you a bonus foot bath, Wi-Fi available but with poor range forcing you to switch off which was also lovely.
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: The location was great. Lovely views. About 15 mins drive from cadair idris. The camp manager was friendly and gave us lots of tips on walks and local places to see. There was wifi at the shower block. Firepit allowed. The toilets were fine, always had soap and toilet roll. No hot water. The shower was cold one day and didn't work at all the next day. But this didn't bother us as we had our own facilities. Overall a great stay for 15 quid a night.
