Disliked The narrow road leading to the campsite

Scenic, perfect for access to snowdonia, Barmouth, Mach loop ect
Power optional grass campsite
Liked The staff are lovely, clean showers and toilets, good views and walks in the area
Disliked Some of the higher up pitches are on a slope, wouldn't be an issue going back as would take bigger ramps, so as long as you have think level ramps, you'll be fine, but most the pitches are level enough. The view from the higher up pitches makes up for it though

Power optional grass tent campsite (two person, small)
Liked we were put on a perfect pitch which was out of the way of other people and felt like we had our own space. loved the extra facilities like the kettles and the washing machines etc, we also enjoyed the hands off check in. near the mach loop so saw military planes
Disliked the main part of the campsite seemed quite cramped however we weren’t in this part
Recommend to friends Visit again
Super lovely stay, large pitches, good location and WiFi throughout
Powered grass campsite
Liked Really gorgeous campsite, tucked away from the road and overlooked by sweet horses. Showers were strong and hot and placed in a block with lots of ammenities. Also has a £1 power wash bike wash + bike storage which was super handy.
Disliked It was great that you could hire a fire pit but you have to buy any wood on site this is not initially included in the price. When I pre-booked I hoped I’d have everything needed.

Highly recommend, especially for Mach Loop enthusiasts!
Powered grass campsite
Liked Highly recommend this site. The showers and toilets were very well maintained. The pitch I stayed on (23) was close to shower block. It was flat and spacious. Relaxed and laid back vibe. Bonus Starbucks just up the lane. I chose this site based on it's vicinity to Mach Loop and wasn't disappointed, saw some low flying military aircraft whilst making bacon sandwich! Brilliant!!!!
Disliked There is nothing negative I can say about this site that is within the realms of the hosts. The only consideration is the main road runs quite close to the site. It's very busy in the daytime but relatively quiet at night. Again, absolutely nothing to do with owners.
