Stopover electric optional hardstanding campervan pitch (no awning)
Liked: We were in a van, Views across the estuary lovely, panoramic views from pitches 1 and 2, I wish I had known! site and facilities very clean, easy to collect envelope with pitch number, access to the Mawddach trail, Cregennen lakes, very good website with lots of information, lots to do in the area. Camping area was looking extremely good and better views, we didn’t see Sarah or John but I would imagine you wouldn’t have any problems speaking to them or contacting them with any problems
Disliked: Pitches for vans close to the road, so noise at commuter times but quite over night, middle of June 2023

From the manager: Thanks very much for your recommendation. We'd love to welcome you back to one of the panorama view pitches which are very popular and only available to book via our own web site.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass campervan pitch
Liked: Absolutely nothing.
Disliked: Was allocated to pitch 6 which was situated right above a very busy main road. Only stayed on this site for a total of one hour and had to leave because of the road noise. This site was advertised as being nice and peaceful, when In fact was the total opposite, also the site had a very cramped and clostrophobic feel to it. The patch of grass next to pitch 6 was a bare patch of mud so any chance of sitting outside our campervan was zero. I would not recommend this site or use again.

From the manager: Stayed less than an hour and made no attempt to discuss concerns with us? What a shame… Instead of the “Small Van pitch” these campers booked for one night through Pitch Up, we could have upgraded them to one of our Panorama Pitches with expansive estuary views, which had a rare night available. These Panorama view pitches are usually fully booked direct by our regulars and are further from the road for van campers who are more noise sensitive. We could also have reassured this camper that the rural road is not noisy most of the day or at all during the night. Although if this camper arrived on a Sunday when some bikers were going past they might not have realised this in the few minutes they stayed. We could have pointed out the grassy seating area less than 50 metres from the pitch with one of the best views in Wales which everyone can use. Also the way through our 40 acres of peaceful meadows for tent camping to picnic benches and the Mawddach Trail. We realise that our site is not everyone’s cup of tea, but there’s so much more than first meets the eye.
Excellent site clean well run
