overall over priced
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked No staff to check in with until after 6pm so a bit confusing trying to find a pitch. The bar is welcoming. Dogs are allowed on one side and the staff are friendly. The T10 bus to Betswycoed is good value. It runs every 2 hours, the stop is at the junction to the A5
Disliked Pitches oo close together This is not a cheap site. The shower / toilet facilities are very poor. There is no TV signal and no WIFI

Price is good if you're just looking for a quick stop.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Actually quite picturesque on the higher tent pitch.
Good price point if you're just passing through.
Disliked Unfortunately we would not return or recommend.
Upon arrival there's no clear signage or booking process, its very much fend for yourself!
Parking can get busy and the first impressions upon arrival was overflowing bins.
The bar is slow service and extremely basic, although staff were polite.
Unfortunately the 11pm 'noise curfew' is not enforced and there's no staff around to monitor, meaning that if you're unlucky like us, your neighbours will still be drinking and shouting at 2am.
The toilet/showers facilities rely heavily on other guest cleaning up after themselves, which unfortunately for us again, was not adhered to by other site visitors.
While the site itself is located off the main road, there is still quite a bit of traffic noise, meaning both nights there were not particularly restful.

Short weekend break to revisit the area
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Great location, lovely pub / restaurant on site basic but adequate facilities. Friendly and welcoming staff
Disliked Not a dislike really but I do prefer it when you are shown to your pitch by a site staff member so there is no confusion with other campers when they arrive.
