What customers say

A beautiful lakeside campground with direct access to Lake Bala, perfect for watersports. Visitors praised immaculate, clean facilities and friendly, helpful staff. Pitches are spacious & well-maintained. Popular with families, it offers a peaceful atmosphere, though some found it busy & noisy at peak times. Most found the site excellent, but a few wanted better WiFi and more dog walking areas.

Local attractions

There are plenty of ways to get a real hit of adrenaline around here – options for high-octane activities include rafting from the National White Water Centre (15 minutes’ drive), world-class mountain bike trails at Coed y Brenin Forest Park (half an hour) and ziplines or underground adventure trails at Zip World Llechwedd (45 minutes). Successfully scaling Yr Wyddfa (aka Mount Snowdon; an hour) provides a thrill too, whether you choose to make your way up one of the footpaths or ride up on the railway. Another lovely walk in the area takes you to Pistyll Rhaeadr (45 minutes), the UK's tallest single-drop waterfall. For gentler days out, take a trip on Bala Lake Railway (five minutes’ drive) or head towards the coast to visit Barmouth beach (40 minutes), pretty Italianate village Portmeirion (45 minutes) and Harlech Castle (50 minutes).
