Powered grass and gravel RV campsite
Liked: This has to be the most fantastic campsite we have ever stayed at! Wonderful location with stunning views, spacious and well laid out, cheerful and helpful staff and excellent showers and toilets. If you are visiting Snowdonia, this is the place to stay! Beddgelert is a short walk along the picturesque river and has lovely pubs and places to eat. And the Watkin path up Snowdon can be reached directly from the site via an off road path. 100% enjoyed our stay and will be back soon
Disliked: Nothing, this has to rank as one if the best sites we’ve stayed at in UK

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: We absolutely loved Car Du campsite.Staff welcome us very friendly with smiling and we had nice chat. Our non electric tent pitch been far and wild and we loved it. We did planned before arrival,go for another day to Anglesey,but shortly after walk to Beddlegert,seeing surrounding areas, visited ice cream parlour,local shop, cafe -we decided to do local walks and leave car without use it for weekend. We had amazing walk around lake, and dip, riverside walk,old mine walk, visited Welsh Bistro for delightful food and great coffee. I could listen Welsh language for hours! Absolutely loved our stay. Toilets and showers are clean, showers turning off very fast-and I can understand this-being environment friendly is a massive positive thing! Maps and information at community area are helpful (we did had our maps and planned routes,but we took few ideas from wall too). Beddlegert is lovely, and people are friendly . I just love Wales, looking forward to back rather sooner than later.
