Great 1st stay and will be back
Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Great little place excellent and clean facilities and handy for local amenities. 5 minute walk down to cycle path then an easy 20 minute stroll into Caernarfon to wander round. Water and waste connections are great. Will certainly revisit.
Disliked Had WiFi but tbh it’s poor but phone reception is good enough not to need.

Great site with views. Excellent shower/toilet. 25 min walk to town
Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Immaculately well kept site with well-spaced pitches with own electric and water. Pitches were tiered in the second filed with views across to Snowdonia. Very quiet even for end of July.
Excellent showering facilities. Clean and airy.
Slight smell and noise from busy working farm not an issue for us. Could see the farmer working incredibly long and hard hours.
Quiet site with easy 25 min off road walk into town. Quick 5 min cycle ride away to Tesco.
Disliked Might have been us, but couldn’t find a grey water drain but it was 6am when leaving so didn’t want to wake other campers.
Right of way blocked coming back to farm from coastal/golf course route.

Beautiful rural location
Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Very nice site set in a beautiful rural area with large level pitches that have water, grey and electric on. The showers are lovely, clean and warm. The walk from the site into Caernarfon in gorgeous along a cycle path and takes around 25 minutes. The lady that owns the site is friendly, helpful and welcoming if we visit Caernarfon again we would stay here again.
Disliked The only negatives about this site is people allowing their dogs to roam the site without leads and also people saving pitches for friends and pretending they don't know anything about it we found that a bit odd and selfish. But that's not the owners fault.
