Clean and quiet campsite, but £55 for one night felt overpriced.

Liked: The campsite is located at a good location nearing Beddgelert, where is a village with good supplies of food and drink. The campsite is also near the starting point of Ranger Path to Snowdon.
The facilities are great with electric pitch, WiFi and clean washrooms. A 5-star campground.
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Staff are friendly, site is clean and well presented. Good recycling options. Awesome location with magnificent views. Beautiful walks along river and just a short walk to the village. The team checked we were ok.
Disliked: The showers have a short timer so forever pushing the button. The birds signing in the morning at 5 am is something to get use to. The site was quiet but we was put right next to another guest. The grass pitch was on hard ground hard to put pegs in you will need strong pegs.

Liked: The site is very well maintained, pitch was a very good size. The showers and toilets we clean and the water was always hot. Large room with somewhere to plug in phones etc if you have no electric hook up, lots of info on walks and the local area. Beddgelert is a few minutes walk and the scenery is the best, the river meanders through the site and there is a dog walk along the banks. Brilliant we will definitely be returning. We were offered the hire of a fire pit or barbecue with wood and kindling if we needed it. That was a nice touch.
