Liked: Everything. Stunning views that showcase the beauty of rural North Wales. With accessibility only suitable for 4x4 vehicles or on foot, you get a sense of adventure and exclusivity. We were spoilt for choice on where to pitch up well away from neighbouring campers. The friendly farmer is very helpful and provides a great sherpa service if required. He really made us feel welcome. It is really something to see stars shining so bright in the dark night sky, away from light pollution. Instantly became one of my favourite wild camping site .Will definitely be revisit img lots
Disliked: Nothing, They have the balance just right, I wouldn’t change a thing.

Liked: This was an absolutely amazing site, peaceful and quiet. There were so many places you could pitch up where there's not another tent in site. The farmer was so helpful and helped anywhere he could. Would highly recommend. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

Liked: This was my first time camping alone, getting away from the madness of real life. I arrived at 1pm on a Saturday and left at 10am on the Sunday and while I was there, I didn't see one single person, not one car, it was perfect and exactly what I needed. Just 15 minute drive from Llyn Brenig which is definitely worth a visit with your bike or paddleboard.
Disliked: Despite enjoying not seeing a single person, maybe seeing the host to point out the toilets and the honesty shop would have been appreciated.

Liked: Views are amazing, field to ourselves surrounded by sheep, not disturbed by anyone once, couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Proper wild camping with the most amazing views and a gorgeous pub down the road. We’ll most definitely be back in summer. Friendly owners and level pitch.
