Liked: The location was good. We wanted to be fairly close to Elan valley. The campsite was basic but had good warm showers. Shower layout good with hook and bench.... so no need for balancing on one foot whilst dryng. Nice countryside views if looking away from farm and building site from the top. Top pitches fairly flat. Great there are picnic benches and fire pits
Disliked: Very basic and not very well signposted struggles to find this site and amenities not very well sign posted. Found 2 bins but not recycling? Facilities basic.

Disliked: The site was very basic and a bit of building site which made £30 per nite seem quite expensive. Things were not signposted.... had almost given up on cold water tap. My daughter couldn't find toilets. There were tons of midges.

Liked: Loved this campsite. Everything we needed, clean, hot showers, toilet block, choice of pitch and plenty of space. Village short walk away with all shops needed and cheap fuel. Helpful friendly campsite owners. Amazing views, great price.

Liked: Easy going site, owners available in farmhouse, so left alone to camp peacefully, 1st thing that struck me was the views, real nice, quiet ! no road noise, 10- 15 min walk into town ( village ), footpath all the way so safe, a torch handy for some ?, a nice touch is being able to arrive and leave at will, I could get reception / internet on my fone no probs, I'd visit again ....hopefully without the rain lol
Disliked: Just observations because I enjoyed ! - I don't understand why broken locks on toilet doors are not repaired when broke, if they are flimsy & keep getting broke ( as these ) fit robust heavier ones, the water tap needs a sign, the toilet waste disposal must be a secret or I need specsaver's !, showers dated but functional, looks like foundations dug for future facilities, !! - just observations !

Liked: A nice, peaceful spot nestled in the hills - quiet, with basic facilities, but a perfect spot for just quietly chilling, watching the Ted-tail kites, and waiting for moon rise… 🥰
