What customers say
This well-kept campground offers stunning mountain views & a beautiful riverside setting, a short walk from Beddgelert. Guests rave about friendly staff, roomy sites, and clean facilities, including hot showers. Perfect for hiking & exploring Snowdonia. Mostly peaceful, though some noted WiFi issues, older shower facilities, or midges.

Amazing campsite!
Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Everything! Very beautiful, close to main points of interest. Easy to pitch (grass was soft), felt safe- drive in through a barrier with number plate recognition. Site was big, but did not feel crowded as areas were separated. Showers & toilets clean, washing machines and dryers available-this was handy after a rainy day on Snowdon. Separate rea for dog walk+bins for doggy bags, area for children to play. Would definitely recommend! No service, but wifi on site. You would not get hot in a tent early in the morning as the sun rises behind a mountain.
Disliked Midges!

Great for walkers
Powered cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite
Liked Fantastic site with stunning views. Friendly helpful staff who kept the site immaculate. Loads of great walks from the site ( including two lakes) and a short (20 min) walk into Beddgelert. Spacious pitches and very peaceful. We’re planning to return next year.
Great wi fi too.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The location was stunning, the pitch was perfect for us, not too close to the river which was great for us with our younger kids. The staff were very helpful. The toilet, shower and washing up area was very clean and I saw some saying it was dated but I didn't feel like it was, it was exactly what you needed, the water was lovely and warm in the showers.
The location of water and recycling was great, didn't have to go too far to get to the facilities.
The kids and adults had a great time, our first experience camping and we will 10000% be back.
Disliked WiFi if I was being picky was intermittent, but we had stuff downloaded for the kids for in the evening when they wanted to chill.
Bitten alot by the midges, but thats no fault of the campsite!
