Chriss S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite (large)

Liked: The two ladies and dogs in reception. The look and cleanliness of the site. Jetta beautiful. The nearby walk.

Disliked: The heavy constant downpours ( site not responsible for) The road noise from the road behind my pitch was constantly interrupting my rest throughout the night so between that and the weather we left early. Tv signal very poor could do with a booster.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review Chriss (especially the comments about Jetta as she is my dog, so that's made me smile this morning!) I am however disappointed that you would neither recommend us to friends or visit again... I do think it is unfair to list heavy downpours as a dislike, although we do appreciate the added note that we are not responsible for that! We are as disgruntled as our guests are with the poor weather we are experiencing of late! The road noise is another aspect that is completely out of our control, during quieter times of the season, we try to relocate people to alternative pitches if the noise is a problem but when we are at full capacity this is not always possible. Apologies for the lack of TV signal you encountered, this seems to be hit and miss at the moment as we have Seasonal guests who are on site full time and don't experience any problems, we will take a look at this. Kind Regards, Team PYB

Very clean and tidy campsite and close to the lake!…

Local attractions

For those days where you can’t be bothered to walk too far, it’s very handy that the station for the narrow-gauge Bala Lake Railway is just five minutes’ walk away. Views of the water are a given, but count the mountains too: Arenig Fawr, Aran Fawddwy and Aran Benllyn are visible on the route. You may have your sights set on climbing Wales’ tallest mountain, perhaps. If you’re not climbing up Snowdon (an hour's drive) yourself, you might want to take the Snowdon Mountain Railway (an hour and five minutes), which has been making its ascent for over 100 years. A less strenuous trail than the Snowdon climb is the Mawddach Trail, which runs for just under 10 miles from Dolgellau (half an hour), crossing over the gorgeous Barmouth railway bridge on the other end. Coed y Brenin Forest Park (35 minutes) has plenty of trails too, through thick forest this time. You can take them on by mountain bike, standard bicycle or on foot – and there’s bike hire at the forest park.
