Camping in Llanberis

A aimé I absolutely love camping here! I’ve stayed twice this year already and it feels like a little gem I’ll always return to. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Llanberis with the mountains on your doorstep and everything you need close by. The facilities are basic but always clean and exactly what you want when camping, and the customer service has been nothing short of excellent, welcoming, friendly and really helpful. It’s such a relaxing, down-to-earth place to stay and I can’t wait to come back again.

N'a pas aimé Nothing!

A aimé We liked the location. It was perfectly situated for exploring Snowdon and Llanberis and surrounding area. The views were amazing. It was great having campfires every night. It was lovely having the resident sheep and chickens and cats visit our tent. It was handy having a tumble dryer to dry clothes and there's a fridge, microwave and kettle to use too. There's an adorable kitten that just enters your tent and 2 other young cats who make themselves at home too.

N'a pas aimé The site isn't clean or tidy. We stayed almost a week and the rubbish around the car park was there all week and got progressively worse. From a pair of boxer shorts on the tarmac to plastic bottles, food packaging, bin bags, and a full bag of rubbish strewn everywhere by wildlife which the owners didnt sort, it was very sad. The day we left, the car park was a right state. We never saw the owners patrol the site at all, throughout our stay. We also know of several campers who just arrived and pitched for free as no one ever checked the paper tags given upon arrival that you attach to your tent. On departure date we left 2hrs after the time we were supposed to (due to torrential downpours) but no one knew as the owners never ever patrol the site. There is a fridge in the drying room which clearly states that all food needs to be labelled and is regularly disposed of every 2-3 days. When I opened the fridge this morning, 2 flies flew out. It smelt, there were maggots (which I flicked out) and there was a bottle of milk in there over a week old, unlabelled and had gone sour/ full of cottage cheese stuff. Next to the tumble dryer there was an array of dirty items including odd socks etc. The microwave was dirty inside. The toilets sometimes didnt have toilet paper or paper to dry hands and the showers weren't that clean. There wasn't a food van there as advertised either. I got the impression that this was a site that was amazing when first bought but now its just easy money and the owners no longer car for it. If I owned it i would do a litter sweep daily of the carpark and fields. I would also make a point of speaking to all campers I came across which these guys don't. Its very sad.

Réponse du gestionnaire : WOW. Flies and maggots in the fridge? that's where you lost all credibility.. Just cleaned the drying room myself this morning before the weekend, yes one fridge smelt of gone off milk that someone didn't bother finishing / discarding but that's as bad as it got. I've seen worse things left in them fridges!

There was about 5 tents on site due to how bad the weather was and forecasted during your stay, it was so quiet that I know exactly who you are (blonde woman with grown daughter) and I can't speak for other staff members but personally - I talked to you twice during your stay that I can remember. So why bother saying we don't engage with customers? Maybe instead of telling me you took my kitten into your tent all night, you probably should have addressed everything you were not satisfied with? We are more than happy to address genuine concerns and problems as soon as possible, instead of reading them in a false, venomous review.

We don't sit at reception all day during very low business periods. That's why we provide self check in details on the reception door (explains why some people didn't have tags - we knew they were here as they had emailed to check in). It's a fairly basic, straightforward campsite, you really don't need staff walking the site around the clock when there's less than 10 people about. During busy periods we are around 8am until 11pm and will always talk to customers that want to engage in conversation!

We don't mind people having an extra couple of hours here after checkout when it's quiet, we're not that strict.

Toilets were checked twice a day, everyday during your stay, morning and night. 'We can't control how others leave the facilities'. Extra loo rolls are left on the windowsills.

We DO patrol the site and know exactly what goes on and who's around - if you don't see or hear from us, it's because you're not causing a nuisance!

The food van is not onsite and not advertised anymore.

A aimé Liked camping areas , provisions to have camp fire if that’s your thing . Toilets and showers reasonably clean and good condition.

A aimé There is very little not to like… From the moment you pull onto the camp the views take your breath away.
The space is plenty with numerous fields with vast space for pitching up👌
The drying room was a life saver along with the kettle, fridge and freezers provided, all made the stay that much more comfortable.
Easy access to two trails up Snowdon I did both and both offer stunning views.
The toilet and shower block were cleaned regularly, the showers are so hot! Just what you need after hiking Snowdon!
The staff were great, helpful and friendly and always there to lend advice or a help in hand. Couldn’t of asked for more

N'a pas aimé There is nothing to dislike about the camp or staff they were perfect. The only thing I would say is people are like sheep so tent to camp on top of each other lol so find yourself a nice remote spot on the field and you’ll have the best trip👌

A aimé This place is run by great people who are very friendly and accommodating. Adequate, showering and toilet facilities, including a washing-up area.

For rural camping, they are well-equipped. I would have liked it if it had fresh water standpipes halfway down and towards the bottom of the field; however, it was not a deal breaker.

I would happily stay here again.

N'a pas aimé The field is on a slope, but you are aware of that, which just makes it a little tricky during long periods of rain. Saying that, no campsite has control of the weather.

N'a pas aimé That big hill! Haha, just joking.
