Liked Big pitches, well spaced with lots of wildflowers around them and fruit trees planted at the top of the field. Quiet at night, bats flitting around the campsite. Facilities were well kept and clean. Lovely countryside around for walking. Easy check-in.

Disliked Nothing

Liked Huge site with pitches widely spaced, perfect for privacy, quiet and peaceful nights and restful camping. No unnecessary lighting, so it was properly dark at night. Watching the birds and the hares around the campsite and the surrounding fields was delightful. Lovely swimming holes, easy to access and beautifully shaded, perfect in the hot weather. Shower cubicles are basic but showers are powerful with plenty of hot water.

Disliked It's a bit of a trek from some pitches to the loos/showers/washing up sinks and even longer to the swimming holes - a mown path across the field and/or a stile over the fence would help if that were possible. Or bring bikes!

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review. The field in the middle of the freedom pitches is actually a crop - I have asked the farmer if I could mow a few paths across the middle - you can imagine his reply! The Stepping Stones were reinstated last year having suffered years of flood damage but were promptly removed by the landowner on the other side of the river - the reason for the map is that they are actually called The Stepping Stones not because there are any but because that is what they are called on the OS map - unhelpfully I agree. A shallow wade for an adventurous camper across to the other side is what we usually suggest - sorry we didn't see you to explain. Bikes is a good idea - will suggest that in our commentary on Pitchup. Come again soon.

Liked Quiet location. Lovely shady spots and a short walk to the coast. Excellent facilities, very clean. Very helpful staff.

Liked Very well kept site and facilities were spotless and well-equipped. Lovely setting with the river running right past the site, and access to the riverbank for swimming. Lots of walks right from the doorstep.

Liked Beautiful location, peaceful and calm with great views, very friendly and helpful owners. Lovely walks from every direction, easy access to the train station for trips further afield, and also the Mawddach cycle trail.

Disliked A lot of the site is sloping so pitch choice can be limited if it's busy.

Liked I pitched in the overflow field across the road from the main campsite, so it was lovely and dark and quiet at night. Good facilities, well kept and tidy site. Friendly and helpful staff. Very easy to get into Dolgellau without a car as the bus stops right outside the site. Lots of lovely walks direct from the campsite.

From the manager: Thanks/diolch. You're welcome back any time.

Liked Peaceful, amazing views, friendly and helpful owners. Feels remote and yet easy to walk, cycle or train it to Barmouth. Discount for solo campers, always appreciated.

Disliked Slight disadvantage is that the site is big but quite a lot of it is sloping, so campers tend to pitch close together on the flat bits.

Liked Clean toilets and showers (especially the large shower cubicles with plenty of hooks). Manager responded promptly when we reported that toilet paper was running out. No lighting at night so it was dark for sleeping, and quiet on the site itself. Great location, walking distance to the shops, pubs and beach. Good walks around the area, plenty to see and do, a good range of options for eating out.

Disliked Code locks on the facilities would be good, to prevent passers by from using them. The site is compact, it would not suit those looking for privacy; however we found that other campers were largely respectful of the proximity. Unfortunately at the weekend the road to the beach seems to attract people showing off in noisy cars and motorbikes, at times in the early hours. Bring your earplugs especially if you are in a tent.
