Shocking experience avoid
Electric grass pitch
Liked Unfortunately there isn’t much I liked about the place I would say the kids area is spacious with a little football nets and small Play area which was lovely but they was watched like a hawk and complained about if they was enjoying them selfs too much
Disliked Where do I start .
The tent pitches that we was given are on a slope which made it difficult to pitch up and everything in the tent was leaning to one side , the noise from the motor way is unbearable at times not what you want for a nice peaceful trip, I would completely avoid this camp at all cost especially if your a family with small children. We felt like we was on pins the whole time, the owner is a very very rude he made you feel very uncomfortable to the point we cut our trip short , the way he thinks it’s necessary to speak to people the way he does is completely unacceptable, he watches every move you make so he can complain at any given chance he gets, following my son in the bathroom and making a big deal of moping behind him unfortunately it was heavy rain he can’t help having muddy feet when walking on grass to the toilets, following us to the bins and stood staring while we are recycling, we are not 5 years old and are fully aware on how to recycle, my children were playing on the play area for him to come over complaining to keep the noise down it is around 5pm in the evening and they are kids being kids get a grip. The next day he also came over asking my autistic child how old she was and she shouldn’t be playing in the area she is tall 11 year old and has just as much right as any other child to be there and it made us very sad trying to explain the situation to her , but like I said we was on pins the whole time we are a very quite respectful chilled family and it was just the worse experience we’ve had and has put us off, we camp a lot and been to some amazing camps but wanted to try somewhere new , but definitely will not be putting my kids through that experience again , bit of advise if your reading this loose your attitude and have some respect for people, treat people how you want to be treated

Prior communication A+++; although no staff seen, excellent overall.
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Communication before arrival was excellent, easy access to site, efficient showers in block, good night’s sleep, short drive to amenities and attractions, clean facilities the morning after we arrived, all aspects maintained and working, easy departure.
Disliked - Shower block was not so clean at night.
- Queueing for the shower in the morning inside the block not pleasant experience.
- Mixer taps on sinks would be more convenient over sinks (and save water).

Electric grass pitch
Liked Stayed here in our motor home with the wife and 2 kids. A quiet, clean, well respected site. Pitches were trimmed and mostly level. Park for the kids, football posts up on a flat field. All enclosed. Facilities clean and stocked. The views if you pitch right are incredible! We would definitely come here again.

Absolute gem of a campsite in a brilliant location
Electric grass pitch
Liked The views from the campsite were amazing, showers and toilets were really clean and there was plenty of room to get changed. Sink area also clean. Facilities were great and the owner was really friendly when we chatted one morning. Location is also superb as it was easy to get to anywhere on Anglesey from the campsite, right next to A5 and A55.
Nearby was:
Pili Palas
Plas Newydd (National Trust)
Sŵ Môr Môn (Anglesey Sea Zoo)
Newborough nature reserve & beach
LlanfairPG (massive Co-op here that had everything you might need!)
Short drive to Red Wharf Bay, Point Lynas, Traeth Lligwy and Benllech to the East, or Rhosneigr and Trearddur Bay to the West.
Disliked Only very minor downsides were:
a) the road noise and trains sounding horns in the night - you can easily remedy this with earplugs though. I was used to it by the second night and slept like a log!
b) lots of stones in the ground so it took a lot of effort to put the tent pegs in - you can get around this by using the more robust hardstanding pegs though.
We couldn’t get on the wi-fi but I don’t class that as a negative as I like to unplug when we go camping!
