Highly rated for spacious sites, spotless grounds, and welcoming staff. Enjoyed fishing & swimming lake. Bar/cafe praised for food/vibe, though hours varied. Toilet/shower numbers/finish need improvement. Many plan to revisit.

Tanneth G.

Madoc Lake primitive cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Peaceful, Beautiful site. Spacious, very well maintained pitches. Friendly staff. Bar and pizzeria, with a covered outdoor area.
The whole group enjoyed the swimming lake, paddle boards and swimming. Youngest of the group now wants to take up fishing .
We loved the goats roaming round.

Disliked Not many showers an toilets so you need to be semi self sufficient. The showered by the lake were left in a right mess after day visits used them. But cleaned in the evening.
Could do "check-in" parking bays as when we arrived the car park was full and hard to park up, check in and drive(reverse) with a car, trailer and large van .
Benches around camp could do with repair or replacement before someone gets hurt.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed our site. Unfortunately we cannot control how other guests disrespect the site and sadly there are guests that do this, we do try to check the toilet block as often as we can. Again this goes for the benches that we supply on each pitch, it would be easier for us not to do so as we are always having to repair them due to the not being used correctly.
The car park was full as it was a bank holiday weekend, usually there is no problem, but a car, trailer and van will be hard to reverse as we are a small site and the car park reflects this when full.
There are 4 showers and 6 toilets on site which is sufficient for the amount of pitches that we have.

Very good!

Emily W.

Madoc Lake FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite (waterside)

Liked Very nice campsite, pleasantly surprised at how quiet the campsite was. We stayed one night on the serviced pitches, it was large and had a good amount of space between other pitches! The swimming lake looked lovely too. We had a take away toasty and full English from the onsite cafe and it was brilliant! Good service and quality ingredients used. Shame the bar and pizza shut a little early for us but it looked good too!

Disliked If we were staying longer it would have been nice to have some sort of rack/drying area by the washing up sink.
The toilet and shower could have been a bit better, in cleanliness and quantity but perfectly useable and close to pitches. Understably would be difficult to keep clean being next to the grass pitches and dry ground, sliders in the shower alleviated and issues.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review, we are glad you enjoyed our site and that you found the breakfast menu tasty.
We will definately look into a drying rack thank you.
The shower block gets cleaned but could need doing again within 5 minutes due to guests not respecting the facilities.

Clean , great facilities, fun and enjoyable

1 bedroom camping pod (no pets)

Liked The pod was luxury and filled with everything you needed for an overnight stay. It’s was spotless and spacious I would definitely stay again great onsite facilities

Disliked 2 adults and 2 kids. 2 kids slept on the fold out couch bed which they said was uncomfortable and the patio curtain wasnt black out therefore the minute the sun was out it was daylight in the kids sleeping area from 6am which impacted the stay a little the next morning.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review, we are glad you enjoyed the pod cabin.
The curtains are lined and have not caused a problem before but this is something we will look into. We have listened to what you said regarding the pull out bed and have invested in mattress toppers.

Fantastic quiet calm site

Madoc Lake FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite (waterside)

Liked Pitches are amazing, full hook up, water, picnic bench and fire pit each. Lots of space for car parking. Amazing views and calm atmosphere. Lovely car area with little play area and live music on the Saturday we stayed. Friendly staff.

Disliked The facilities need cleaning and restocking more often. They need updating. Showers could do with a revamp and maybe more of them.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review. The toilets do get checked and cleaned every hour, it is disappointing that some guests do not leave them as they should and that they decide to take all of the toilet rolls.
