Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite
Liked: Het uitzicht vanaf het veld was heel mooi en het was heel rustig op de camping. Ook de enige douche die aanwezig was, was heel goed. De ruimtes waren verwarmd, wat ook fijn was.
Disliked: De ontvangst was niet heel erg warm. We voelden ons niet heel erg welkom. We kregen geen duidelijke instructies over waar we mochten staan en waar we de autoâs mochten neerzetten. Hierdoor werden we op de eerste avond niet heel erg vriendelijk gewezen op het feit dat onze autoâs ergens anders moesten worden neergezet, het zou namelijk heel erg druk worden door het verlengde weekend. Dit baarde ons zorgen, aangezien er slechts twee toiletten zijn, waarvan Ă©Ă©n gecombineerd met de enige douche, en het met een paar tenten en de verhuurde huisjes al druk was. Aan het einde van ons verblijf, toen het veld halfvol stond was het daarom ook al aanschuiven om naar de wc te kunnen. Tanden poetsten we dan maar bij de afwasplaats. Dat maakt het verblijf hier allemaal niet echt chill. Ook waren er nog faciliteiten in aanbouw, maar volgens de google reviews waren deze 8 maanden geleden ook al in aanbouw.. een beetje raar. Het was ook lastig om de deuren van het sanitair te sluiten. Het zat allemaal een beetje krakkemikkig in elkaar. Bij aankomst lag er op verschillende plaatsen hondenpoep, maar de enige aanwezige loslopende honden waren die van de eigenaren. Ook later tijdens ons verblijf vonden we nog op verschillende plekken nieuwe hondenpoep. De honden van de gasten waren echter continu aan de lijn en poep werd opgeruimd. Dus de poep ligt er al een hele tijd of is afkomstig van de loslopende honden van de eigenaren. Afwasplek is niet overkapt, wat vervelend kan zijn met slecht weer. Het tentveld is sterk glooiend, wat het minder geschikt maakt voor grote tenten of drukkere perioden met weinig keuze. Wij hadden zelf geluk dat het veld leeg was toen we aankwamen. Ook is er geen plek om grofvuil weg te gooien maar wordt gezegd dat je het maar mee naar huis moet nemen, wat niet evident is. Dat voelt als geldklopperij. Voor ÂŁ32,5 (âŹ39,-) per nacht voldeed ons verblijf daarom totaal niet aan de verwachtingen.

Liked: Just got back from Cae Glas camping đ B/H weekend
It was amazing!
The hosts Mel & Aaron are the nicest friendliest people and can't do enough to help and make sure you're stay is perfect.
The field is lovely and so well kept, it's nice as only 10 pitches allowed no overcrowding and not noisy.
The surroundings are amazing, fields and mountains as far as the eye can see, so peaceful and relaxing, just breathtaking.
They also have a shepards hut with hot tub and a hut with a hot tub to book,
both look lush!
They have 2 toilets & a shower, it the best shower I've ever used on a campsite I may add, it's a POWER shower and the shower cubicle is huge.
The block is fully heated too, so as soon as you step foot in the room you feel the warmth, it's so nice.
Mel has a lil shop she does the most amazing Pizzas đ (to order)
Hot & cold drinks
Snacks and more.
They also sell firewood ÂŁ7.50 for a big box more than enough for your firepit.
They also have the cutest lil farm with animals who are so friendly and you can pet them when you want to, they have....
Pygmy Goats đ
Pigs đ (my favourite) đ
Chickens đ
2 beautiful Highland cows
Donkeys đ«
They also do Llama đŠ trekking, you can go for a walk through the fields with them on leads, so adorable to see.
They have a full recycling â»ïž station set up there too which is great đ
I also had a fantastic signal 5G
I think I've pretty much covered it all lol!
I would 100% recommend Cae Glas and we can't wait for our next visit đ
Thank You Mel & Aaron for the best weekend!!!!!!!
