What customers say
Great views & peace in Snowdonia for walkers/cyclists. Owners Peter & wife praised for friendliness and local tips. 'No frills' but perfect for nature lovers. Fresh water/disposal improved. Minor points: less shade, some sheep muck. Mostly great, people want to return.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Incredible
Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Well, we have been out exploring all summer and this is the best place we have stayed.
Site was small, but perfect. The views, and sunsets and sunrises were incredible.
There is so much to do and see and all so close.
The beach was incredible
The local nature walks were fabulous.
Even the lake walk at 10 miles was a pleasure.
The hosts were lovely, 3 horses keeping a watch upon us.
The pitch was lovely and flat. So quiet and peaceful.
Cannot rate it any higher

Excellent site, friendly owners, beautiful view from the hill site
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Beautiful site with lovely view, very friendly and helpful owners, it is next to an old inn that the owners hope to bring back to life in the future, it was very peaceful camping on the hill site, there is water available on the site.
Google map takes you a little ahead of the site so follow the sign for campsite after the holiday cabin estate. Thank you.

A great site for wild camping, with amazing views, at a great price.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked The most amazing views across the Rhigos mountains, and the fact that there were five errant sheep on the loose, giving the farmer the run around! The host was very friendly and the pitches were a good size. The price was excellent.
Disliked The midges were the only thing that were the 'fly in the ointment!'. Otherwise, for wild camping you can't beat it.

Great views.. Phone signal.. Friendly owner. Value for money
Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Really lovely back to basics campsite. The owner is helpful and friendly.The view is lovely.. Sun sets behind the hills Infront of you.. Sheep roaming the land. I can't fault it.
Perfect base for sightseeing in north Wales. We camped here for 3 nights as we planned to climb Snowdon. It's approximately a 1 hour drive to the base of Snowdon mountain.
There's a Few pubs not far from the campsite (15 mins drive) if you want a hot meal. We did have phone signal
