What customers say

Brilliant spot for Snowdonia, with grand mountain views & great facilities. Staff are dead sound, and it's lovely by the river. Pitches are usually big enough for everyone. Mostly quiet, but can get a bit lively during busy spells.

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked Views and location was amazing. Small river and games room for the kids

Disliked Not enough showers on field 6 with half hour wait.
Pizza van that turned up took hours to get a pizza then another half hour wait when given a collection time. The lady was on her own and had really bad customer service and attitude

Cheryl J.

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked Secure, clean, friendly, well organised and spacious.
We usually don't visit the same site twice as we're keen to explore different areas. However, we are already planning our next trip to Bryn Gloch as there are so many local places to discover nearby that our 3 night stay wasn't nearly long enough.
On site was friendly, clean and felt safe. Little luxury's that make things a touch more comfortable were easily accessable, for example, free WiFi at the pitch and showers that you don't have to press every 10 seconds!
The river running through the site was an unexpected highlight.... The kids played in there for hours.
Being pitched close to a play area, football pitch and a hidden gem of an entrance to a peaceful, scenic part of the river, with glorious views of the mountains, was an absolute bonus!

Disliked If I had to be extremely picky...... A few extra lights around the site at night would have made our stay absolutely perfect.
Take a good torch or headlamp and it's no real problem at all.

Ann B.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Absolutely brilliant campsite, with a magnificent view of Mynydd Mawr. Running through is a little river which has a clearest cleanest water I’ve seen in a long time. It was perfect for the kids to play in and be able to try out the paddleboard. Also loved the steam train coming through at the side of the campsite every now and then. We enjoyed climbing the mountain for a 10th birthday party at the top. Great to have the Van providing food and the little shop.

Disliked The shop was just a little bit disappointing in terms of stores, just very functional. There isn’t a pub within walking distance unless you walk the main road for just over a mile.

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked Well looked after campsite. Play
area and football area were good. River and seating area a bonus.

Disliked My 3 grandsons were dissatisfied they couldn't play football closer to the tent.. The tears were rather close to each other. Something to stand on when you get out of the shower would be useful as the floor could be dirty.

Local attractions

Legend says Gelert, a hound belonging to a Welsh prince, is buried in Beddgelert (15 minutes’ drive). Visit the grave, take in the views from the Aberglaslyn Pass (15 minutes) and then visit the Sygun Copper Mine (20 minutes) to learn more about the conditions in 19th-century mines. Adventurous types can tackle the fastest zipwire in the world at Zip World Penrhyn Quarry (half an hour). With underground trampolines based in slate caverns, you’re likely to work up a sweat. GreenWood Family Park (20 minutes) has traditional rides, including family-friendly rollercoasters. Where next? Perhaps Caernarfon Airport (25 minutes), where there’s an aviation museum and pleasure flights along the Menai Strait and around Snowdon? Portmeirion (35 minutes), an Italianate village featured on the telly? Or Llanberis (20 minutes), where the mountain railway departs? Llanberis is close to the National Slate Museum (20 minutes), which has the largest working water wheel in Britain.
