What customers say
Spacious pitches in lovely settings with woodland walks & fairy garden. Staff are praised for friendliness & helpfulness, as are the clean facilities & value. Great for families with a new play area. Good for towns/beaches. Occasional road/bird noise but overall very positive.

Would have loved to come back if it weren’t for the crows
Electric optional grass tent pitch (maximum 4-berth)
Liked Everything about this campsite is super. Close to all the beautiful attractions and such gorgeous views on your doorstep. Toilets and shower block well maintained. Lovely woodland walk to the river!
Disliked Crows will wake you up every morning at 6am

Great pitch and nice site. Lovely surrounding areas to visit as well.
Electric optional grass tent pitch (maximum 4-berth)
Liked Lovely piece of land and relatively sheltered which makes it less windy by the coast. The pitch was level and we didn’t have any difficulty getting the pegs in. Good availability of electrical points. Would highly recommend the waterfall a few minutes drive near the camp site, it was stunning. Also loved the holgates gates ice cream shop near by as well, the honey ice cream with honeycomb topping was delicious.
Disliked Slight drain smell in the bathroom but only experienced this in the male toilets. Also the showers were a press button but that is minor. Not a dislike but different to other sites we have been on, dogs needed to be on-lead.

Exceptional site, well maintained, perfect pitches, beautiful place
Electric optional grass tent pitch (maximum 6-berth)
Liked This is absolutely one of the best campsites I have been to. What a beautiful location surrounded by mountains fields and rivers. This site has everything you would want from a campsite. A great size woodland walk for the dogs and kids to explore, river walks, adventure playground, ruins to explore, fairy garden, den making and much more. The toilets and showers are large enough for the site I never had to wait to have a shower or use the toilet. The showers and toilets were very clean and were constantly cleaned and maintained. The site is very clean and well maintained and the pitches are well placed and a great size we had a large 8 birth tent and gazebo there was plenty of room. The town and beach is a short walk along a path or a really picturesque walk along the river. There's everything you need in the town and some great places to visit. I highly recommend dolgoch waterfall and aberdyfi. We loved our stay and will definitely be returning again, its an exceptional campsite
