What customers say
A beautiful, peaceful riverside spot, praised for its spacious pitches and spotless facilities. Friendly owners and close to the Elan Valley. Some areas are a bit dated, but overall very well-kept.

Liked We will definitely be back!!
The latest review made us a little uncertain but we took the chance and are very glad we did!!!
The owners are very patient, understanding and generally lovely people!
We had a nightmare of a trip to get there and ended up arriving late (out of hours), owner called to see if we were safe and on route and reassured us it was not a problem and to make sure we just get there safely... Next morning I apologised and they reassured us they understood....
Site itself is well kept, tidy, peaceful and generally beautiful... River running a
Through on the boundary and a lovely church next to site.
We had a toddler and a dog... Who owners made feel very welcome!
Residents on site are lovely and always willing to have a chat or charge their knowledge of local area.
Some lovely public footpaths around site.
Over all we cannot fault this site and we are already trying to find a date we can return!
Disliked Nothing at all
We as a family loved the site

Powered gravel and concrete caravan site
Liked Very peaceful, lovely old church with lots of history, first night very nice second day very different!
Disliked Booked on pitch up it said dogs welcome? I have 3 very small dogs 1 Yorkshire terrier, 1 tiny bichon and a pug, the owner told me in the reception that we could go on any pitch as it was very quiet for them this weekend. The next day we took the dogs for a walk to be greeted by the owner who said if he had known yesterday that we had 3 dogs he would not have let us on site no matter how quiet the site was .
The only reference to dogs on our pitch up print out is that IT must be microchipped and not be one of several perceived "nasties"
At no point from reception to did he leave the building and come and inspect our van or our dogs.
The owner's attitude was very condescending and rude, it states on the booking NO gazebos but there was one on a residential pitch next door ??
BTW, the gazebo got moved to an empty field next to the site when we woke up this morning? ( i did take a photo yesterday afternoon ).
Lovely, well laid - out site, peaceful with good facilities, spoiled by an arrogant ass that quotes policy but does not follow up on it. Typical box - ticker!!
If you want to stay at a prison camp that has regiimental rules !!
NO MUSIC
NO TV'S TURNED LOUD
NO MORE THAN 2 TINY DOGS ( ANY OTHER ANIMALS ARE FINE,GOATS AND PIGS ARE NOT STATED AS EXCEPTIONS)
NO GAZEBO UNLESS YOU KNOW THE OWNERS PERSONALLY
ASK PERMISSION TO USE THE SHOWER FACILITIES!
We would have returned next year with it being so peaceful had it not been such an upsetting experience! we apologised for not knowing about the 3 dog rule and felt very threatened by the owner.
We are both in our later years and have been motorhome owners for the last 6 years and this is the first time we have encountered this kind of hostility.

From the manager: Thank you for your review regarding the parks' 2 DOG rule which you did not think applied to you. Pitch-up clearly states a maximum of 2 dogs allowed for each pitch type and under
'Extras' you can only enter 0,1 or 2 dogs. Incidently, you put 2 on the booking form which was a blatent disregard of the booking condition. We have done everything we can under the parameters of the Pitch-up system to advise that a maximum of 2 dogs per pitch will be permitted.
On seeing you with three dogs I politely pointed out the 2 dog rule and your husband even joked it is 2 bitches and 1 dog. Had my approach been aggressive or hostile, it would not have been met with humour in response. At no point did I ask you to leave or interfere with your stay.
Regarding the gazebo that you implied went missing on Saturday night, that was a consequence of storm Amy which blew through on the weekend of your stay.
We wish you happy travels and would encourage you in the future to adhere to booking conditions. May I also thank you for drawing attention to our 2 DOG RULE as a gentle reminder for readers of your review.
Quiet peaceful place with everything you can need.
