Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: This is a great site! We were sent a helpful message with directions and there was a warm welcome when we arrived. We were shown to our pitch which was hardstanding and spacious with a good distance from the next pitch. The showers and toilets were always spotless with hot water, the shower rooms were big which made dressing easy. The owners were friendly and approachable without being intrusive. The setting is beautiful with lots of trees and is really peaceful with easy access to Criccieth and the Llyn. Thank you for 4 lovely days, we will be back!
Disliked: There was absolutely nothing to dislike.
