What customers say
Stunning views for hikers exploring Snowdonia! Close to Llanberis with mountain path access. Clean facilities, friendly staff. Some sloped pitches, but generally spacious and chilled. Manager addresses noise/facility feedback.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked The campsite was exactly as advertised and then some. The location is stunning with easy access to both Yr Wyddfa and Llanberis. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the facilities were cleaned regularly and access to a fridge, freezer, microwave etc. are really useful touches. I also have to mention the food van, a small selection of fast food taken to another level. Delicious.
Also an added bonus, that admittedly wouldn't interest everyone, was the spotted woodpeckers, tawny owls and innumerable small birds. I had a great stay.
Disliked While I disliked nothing I feel I should mention the steep lane up to the campsite. While it's only a very short walk, if you are travelling on foot with a very heavy rucsac, like I was, be prepared.

Disliked Camping field was on a hill but since site halfway up a mountain to be expected!

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Very busy over bank holiday which you would expect. However, trip spoilt by drunks shouting in the early hours of the morning. Not the best way to start a hike.

From the manager: Really sorry this happened to you. We try our best to remind everyone of our 11pm noise rules and go round doing noise checks but there are always some that ruin it for everyone! (usually after we've gone to bed thinking everywhere is quiet!!)

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Location and the view were amazing.
Disliked It was hard to believe that we had to pay £1.00 for a shower for 8 mins. For such a busy location 2 showers and 2 toilets ( apart from 2 behind the building) caused a queue and was uncomfortable. Cleaning was not up to standard. We could also use some extra bins per field.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Shower charge is clearly advertised - there are no hidden fees or surprises there.
We are on a private water supply (during dry spells the supply can be limited) so charging for showers is the only way to stop people spending ages in them and wasting water. Imagine the queues if everyone was given unlimited water and time.
Bank holidays are busy everywhere, especially given the amazing weather we've had!
There is no way we would add bins on the fields - rubbish would be flying everywhere! The rubbish bins are on the carpark, the central point of the campsite. Everyone uses the facilities before leaving, we found it's the best place for them.
Our facilities are maintained regularly, even more so during busy periods. Apologies if we didn't keep them up to your standard but we try our best and in my opinion they were always in acceptable condition when inspected before cleaning all weekend.
I find it extremely insulting you gave us such a low rating for customer service having spent so long sorting an issue out for you one evening Lili. To my knowledge the issue was 100% resolved? Shame you didn't voice your opinions to us then instead of acting like everything was great! Sometimes a simple chat can clear a lot of things up :)
We love the place, the nature, very quiet and recommended!
