Squirrel camping pod
Liked: The setting and view are breathtaking, serene, quiet and peaceful. Close enough to local villages and Porthmadog to not feel isolated, but far enough to feel hidden and secret. Lovely accommodation, surprisingly warm in the night when temperatures got as low as 7 degrees. Flexible with check in times for our convenience. Reasonably priced. Great private space with firepit etc.

Bee camping pod
Liked: Peaceful with amazing fews. Small and quiet campsite. We had a pod which was comfortable and clean. The showers were hot and powerful. Even though we had taken our own camping kitchen utilities you don't need any the campsite kitchen has everything you need to make your own food. Warm welcome from the owners. Good location to visit many parts of North Wales. Thoroughly recommend.
Disliked: Nothing.

Fox Den cabin
Liked: Everything at Camp Stesion was perfect, spotlessly cleaned and well equipped campers kitchen. The showers and toilet was also spotless. The shower was good with lovely hot water and good pressure to. The foxden we stayed in was cosy clean and warm right next to our firepit with a massive area for your own personal space.
Disliked: My only dislike was the mattress on the bed, but that's at lot down to being 6ft man sleeping on a child's bed.

Liked: Everything about the campsite! The campsite had beautiful views and was lovely and peaceful. We loved that each pitch had plenty of space with a campfire and a bench to sit on. The toilets bathroom were great and the kitchen area was very thoughtful, with plenty of things to be able to cook your own meal and not need to bring anything! The owners were also lovely, checking in with us to make sure we were happy and had everything we needed.

Liked: Lovely small campsite with very spacious pitches Each pitch had own picnic table and campfire Very friendly site manager who responded very quickly when had an issue with a camper playing music late at night (it's a no music site) and got the problem sorted straight away. Thank you :)
Disliked: There's two showers in site but unfortunately only one was working with hot water. The facilities are lovely, clean and well looked after, but there's only one sink for the whole site which is in the bathroom with the loos. It would be great if there were a couple of seperate sinks in the shower room area so you could brush your teeth away from the loos :) You can hear the traffic from the road, but it does quieten down at night and you do get used to it

From the manager: Thank you for leaving a review! We were not aware of the shower not working, a quick text would of solved the problem. It has now been fixed. We only have one sink in the bathroom because we only have a maximum of 18 people on site when the camp is full, compared to other campsites who have around 400 people plus and only 4 - 5 sinks. Thank you for bringing the issue to our attention we are always trying to improve the camp and it might be an idea for the future.
