Basecamp Wales

Likte Beautiful views, beautiful place, very peaceful. Awesome bike/hiking trails. Clean toilets/showers. The rope swing on the top of the hill kept the kids entertained for HOURS!

Likte ikke Beware of the hill. The campsite is on a 35 degree incline. We decided there were 3 phases of this site, shock, acceptance and then laughing at the new people's faces as they arrived... But seriously, the hill is no joke, sleeping is difficult, cooking is difficult, sitting on a chair is difficult. Toilets and showers are a bit of a walk (no problem for the boys doing a number 1 as there's plenty of forest area). There are no set rules or staff so the residents get wild at night up to early hours of the morning normally so bring earplugs! Also rats around the bins as they were fully loaded day before collection so mind your step! There is also one toilet available which is in the same block as the showers so if someone's having a long shower you're having to wait a while. Would also be nice to have a water tap up on the hill.

Likte Nice field at the top

Likte ikke Got to the site with a motor home took one look and drove straight back out again , as a family with a small child this is not a safe and secure place to charge people to stay in a car park on a main road no gates

Likte could have outside fire
Good forest location

Likte - The on-site mountain biking tracks and bike rental were fab, reasonably priced, and the staff were brill.
- The location wasn't too far from the coast, and has a good Tesco and hospital close by.
- Excellent price
- The ability to have fires so easily is great. I may have missed it, but the option to buy wood for fires would be a lovely addition

Likte ikke - It would be nice to have a water source closer to the pitches
- The key system out of hours is a bit finicky, and would be better if replaced by a code-locked door that can be left latched during the day.
- More of a heads up, bit the whole pitch is on a rather steep hill, so be prepared to end up against the side of your tent.

Likte The toilets were very clean.
good location for cycling and walking but we were very glad to only be using it as a quick overnight stop.

Likte ikke The signage was very poor for the campervan, we were sent What3words but telling us it was actually the car park would have saved us a trip up a steep hill.
Pitch was flat and close to the shower block but there was only one key in a fiddly key box. Couldn't have a shower as we arrived after 4pm so unable to buy a token.
The pitch was just a carpark space so if 2 other vans had turned up then it would have been snug.
All of this would be ok if it was very clear from the website and did not cost £25!!!!!!!
