Basecamp Wales

Kedvelték: The actual park was as good as any other but not really special or outstanding in any way.
Lady who cleaned the toilets (when open!!) was very helpful and friendly.

Nem kedvelték: PLENTY.

From the minute I called at the cafe to enquire as to where I was to pitch my motorhome, I was met by a male staff member who seemed to wish he was anywhere else but there. He directed me to our ‘pitch’ which was basically the gravel car park which is actually out of shot in their photos (I can’t think why - other than the fact it slopes in two directions!!)
When we booked the website said they only had 1 non electric hardstanding ‘pitch’ available, but whilst we were there we were the only ones, I can only assume the others had done what we should have done, and gone home. It was only the glorious weather and the fact we’d planned a barbecue that encouraged us to stay.
The car park (it should never be called a motorhome pitch!!) had no security at all and was approximately 40 m from the main road which was not as busy as we expected through the night.
We were extremely disappointed and would never return to what they jokingly call a motorhome pitch/campsite - we may as well have been in a supermarket car park.
I’m sure that the country park and cycle paths (one of which we used) are lovely, but to suggest this is a motorhome site is an absolute joke.


STEER CLEAR.

Kedvelték: The food was great and the coffee was nice

Nem kedvelték: The toilets closed in the evening for the night and couldn't purchase shower token until the cafe opened at 10

Kedvelték: Convenience, price, cafe, toilet block

Nem kedvelték: Difficult to say, as other reviews say, we stayed on the electric pitch which was just gravel. Pitching our campervan side tent was not really possible, and it is by a road/carpark. Not really a sit outside the van, cook food and enjoy the view sort of site. That said it was not overly noisy and clean. Suited us fine

Kedvelték: Nothing, there was nothing good about this 'camping site'. It isn't a camping site, it is a car park with gravel next to a main road that isn't even level. They allowed the caravan next to us to run a diesel generator. The bathroom and the shower blocked were locked so you couldn't even use them. We left after a few hours because it was so horrible. There's nothing to recommend this place and we would never stay here again.

Nem kedvelték: Everything. It was awful.

Kedvelték: Nothing

Nem kedvelték: Everything. It was NOT as advertised!!!! We pulled into this sketchy looking tiny car park big enough for 3 cars. The field was tiny and on a very steep gradient. Your being very generous even calling it a campsite. The toulets and showers are really far from the actual site. Didn’t even bother getting out the car. We booked somewhere else. Dont book this waste of money. The photos are taken at angles that make it look good! £50 gone. Wont ever make that mistake again!!

Kedvelték: Nothing to like I didn't stay

Nem kedvelték: It was just a cat park right next to main road I didn't even stay, very disappointed the post for this site is very misleading and should be taken down

Kedvelték: Great location for people that enjoy mountain biking, riding along cycle paths or walking.
Showers and toilets are kept lovely and clean. Staff have all been lovely and friendly.
Although initially shocked at it not being an actual 'campsite' but just spaces in a car park, we had booked 3 nights and thought we may leave after 2. We stayed for the 3 nights and enjoyed a lovely chilled family break. We did travel into Swansea for Crazy Climb as this is something we have been planning to book (not necessarily planned for this trip) and it helped break up a wet afternoon.

There is a shop to hire bikes for anyone wanting to give mountain biking a try without investing in a bike yourself.

Nearest shop is 2 miles away.

We didn't use the cafe but the food and cakes looked amazing.

I would recommend this site (especially for people that enjoy mountain biking). We will definitely return.

Nem kedvelték: I was shocked at first (as I didn't read the reviews) that the pitches are just 3 electric points in a car park. There is a camping field for tents further back from the road.
As mentioned in 'liked', we stayed for 3 nights and will return.
