Liked: Stunning location within easy reach of Snowdonia's attractions, quiet at night, opportunity to buy freshly cooked pizza. Other campers all really friendly.

Disliked: Cold showers that I totally missed in the campsite description so totally my fault but to be fair, it could have been included in the main description of the site, not just in the bullet points of facilities down the bottom. Lots of mud but that's the fun of a back to basics campsite! Bring wellies haha.

Liked: I loved the basicity of this campsite within the natural environment of North Wales!

The owners/staff are very welcoming and helpful. The site is truly with the natural environment and generally peaceful. The toiles being compostable is noble and welcomed though not for some. The cold shower was so refreshing, I loved it on a warm day!!

Overall me and my son loved this site and will come again.

Thank you so much for accommodating us!

Liked: Just spent 5 nights at this beautiful ‘pop up’ site in Penmachno. What a time I’ve had, stunning views, fabulous semi-wild campsite that is a WORKING FARM.
Compost toilets and cold showers, minimal impact on the infrastructure of the beautiful quiet village it is in. Yes, the entrance to the field where heavy, fully packed vehicles are entering got muddy due to the rain in Wales. Unfortunately, the MET office aren’t always correct in their weather warnings but the two fabulous owners of the entire farm were always at hand ,and only a text/call away, to help if needed. This was also being worked on daily (usually when most sleepy campers were fast asleep) and was resolved with rubber matting - the farm are only allowed 28 days of camping and have to literally make the campsite disappear overnight so they are limited to what they are able to use.
Pizza’s made every night by the wicked farmers, with farm to fork in mind. Bottled water available, fire pits and fire bundles available.
For the price, you couldn’t ask for more. Everything is mentioned on their page and I fully got what I expected and beyond to be honest. Camping at it’s best.
Please please pick up your rubbish after you and dispose of it correctly.
Solo female travellers and felt perfectly safe here.
I’ll be back every year, might even pop my tent up in their garden 😉

Liked: Great site for a night after an afternoon at ZipWorld. Really fun 'loo with a view' composting toilets, off-the-ground campfires for hire, pizzas at night and bacon sandwiches in the morning. Nice people, quiet overnight (except for the Welsh summer rain!). Take drinking water with you.

Disliked: As it had rained a lot the car park field was very muddy, but nothing really to worry about!

Liked: What a lovely, peaceful place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life! Surrounded by amazing walks in completely unspoilt countryside. May I add the weather was terrible but that did not detract from our overall experience.
This is not a campsite for those expecting the glitz and glam of 'modern' camping, but the low price one pays reflects that perfectly. If one prefers to be in a wild site away from it all this is the site for you.

The owners (who are both hardworking farmers) Dan and Lauren were amazing hosts. They are both passionate and attentive to the needs of their customers and demonstrated their considerable care for the environment and their local community. Homemade pizzas and garlic bread served in their barn every evening was a real treat.

The National Park understandably place heavy restrictions on access and permanent fixtures for all campsites in Snowdonia. With that in mind the facilities and campsite were ideal and exactly how they were described by the owners (we knew what to expect and were pleasantly surprised)! The access track to the parking field was muddy but what does one expect when exposed to torrential rain and high winds caused by an Atlantic storm! Part of the whole wonderful experience I say.

THANK YOU DAN & LAUREN we will be booking again for next year. Good luck with your community festival and we hope everything goes well for you both.

Disliked: Loved EVERYTHING about this site!

Liked: Gorgeous campsite. A real “off-grid” feeling. The entire site felt so secluded but safe and happy at the same time, which was excellent with children. The lack of wifi and phone signal was actually refreshing and helped us reconnect!

We loved the compositing toilets and pizza ovens. The toilets were continuously checked and appeared clean on every use, with restocked sawdust etc. You also cannot beat the scenery; we all felt very recharged from the nature. The lady running things was also lovely and very helpful at all times.

It was also in a great location and we were able to explore everywhere that we intended to. The campsite itself also offered ample areas to explore nature and walk around. Again, we felt this was brilliant for children. Had the weather been slightly better, we would have used this to our advantage for an evening adventure in pjs after dinner.

Despite very poor weather and cutting our trip short, we loved this campsite so much and will definitely return to use the facilities and location offered, to their full potential!

Liked: Lovely little back to basics campsite

Disliked: We never once saw the site owner. We arrived, pitched up, and we're left to it.
Our trip was cut short by Storm Betty, as were most of the other campers. There was no phone signal, so we were clueless that the storm was coming. No sight of the owners to check on the campers or offer any kind of help

Liked: Absolutely loved the location and view from the campsite. It was the most beautiful view I have ever camped with!
