Fferm Gelli Camping

Tyckte om: Lovely little campsite which is secure so all of the children were safe to play.
Everyone was friendly and helpful.
Staff we lovely and Claire is always on hand if you need anything.

The kids done the alpaca walk and feeding which they loved.
The little ones enjoyed feeding goats and the pigs.

Food from the café was spot on and the dirty fries were lush.

A children’s little park would make this little campsite perfect.

We will definitely be back :)

Tyckte om: Friendliness of staff
Clean toilets and showers
Good location
Campfires allowed

Tyckte inte om: Local beauty spot seemed to attract gangs late into the night playing extremely loud music (not the sites fault)

Cockerell started crowing at 4.30am and didn't stop.

Overall not a restful nights sleep

Tyckte om: The style of the shepherd's hut

Tyckte inte om: Wasn't greeted when we got to shepherd's hut was left unlocked was dirty inside no toilet paper. So use campers toilets. Only 2 toilets in field during evening and 2 showers for campers is lf busy there be a que. Shower pressure was hit and miss.
Customer service was poor. Lambs kept escaping. Hut tub for shepherd's hut log burning spent hours trying to heat didn't heat only given 5 log as they had none wasted money on buying logs and didn't use hot tub because didn't heat

Från föreståndaren: Thanks for your review!

As explained when you rang, the reception was closed and you was told where your key was inside your hut..

As for the hut not being cleaned this was a rather strange one as they were cleaned before your arrival!
When you went to the cafe the next morning and asked for toilet roll, no mention of the hut not being cleaned was mentioned so we were unaware of this.. you also rang a few time and still no mention of this! (only when you asked for a refund after the whole duration of your stay)

Your staying in a Shepard's hut with a wood burning hot tub, wood burning being you have to heat this with wood. You was given a starter pack of logs, fire lighters and kindling.

As for 2 toilets and 2 showers, that's just on the camping field there are additional ones at the side of the reception!

Your staying on a farm!! So animals are around.
I think next time you book something you should look at a hotel with room service!
👍

Tyckte om: Location, facilities, view, quietness.

Tyckte inte om: Next to public footpath/bridleway where whilst in my tent getting off to sleep at 9pm experienced a gang of local kids throwing things at the tent, spitting and shouting out there were "four black men outside my tent coming for me" couldn't get back to sleep and felt insecure being only person there in case they came back so never got any sleep and by 3am started packing up to go home. Obviously this isn't the owners fault but maybe put people in starting at the top and the lower number spaces last so if this happens again there are plenty of people on site.

Tyckte om: I camped here with my twin 9 yr old niece and nephew last weekend. Their first time camping. What a cracking little campsite. Perfect for families with little ones. The owner was lovely. Great facilities. Large toilet shower units. Covered seating area. Cafe. Play field with football goal, giant connect 4, swing ball, hay bales, fire pits. And of course, the animals 😍

Tyckte om: NOTHING - please read about our experience and avoid, it is the most expensive site and the smallest pitches with no proper facilities. No idea how they get away with charging so much for that, that is as close to a scam as you can get. And you won't get your money back.

Tyckte inte om: We paid £35 for one night (with electricity and a dog). We have been camping for many years (this was our 9th weeekend away just this year) and we have NEVER come across such a bad site:
- tiny pitches, tents were literally cramped next to each other one meter apart
- we've been to family friendly sites before which was never a problem - but within such a close proximity on this site this meant there were way too many people and kids crammed within a tiny space (very noisy as you can imagine)
- no proper facilities - 2 portaloos for 30-40 people! And two cabin / portable showers. Absolutely unbelievable for the price they charge.
- the overflow field is not only on a slope but so uneven, I really wish I took some photos to share as a proof
- it was so bad we decided to rather loose money and find somewhere else for the night than stay and have an awful experience.

I really wish someone had warned us - the owner said there was nothing wrong with the pitch so no refund given (despite the fact we paid extra for electricity which we did not use and the dog that ended up not being there).
It ruined our weekend and left nothing but a bitter taste... I have no idea how this site got any positive reviews at all.

Från föreståndaren: Sorry you feel like this but as explained to yourselves, there was enough room for your tent if it was the size that we state fits upon are pitches! (Yours like your wife stated was a larger tent!)

If you read the description about our site you will see we only offer the amount of pitches we can hold, we are a small site which again we stated!

We have more than 2 toilets there are more showers and toilets, you wasn't there long enough to even look around you pulled up seen a pitch you was unhappy with and wanted a refund!

I gave you the option of another field which you declined, stating it was uneven, again you didn't even walk around to look at this field!

We can not please everyone on our site and reviews like this can be detrimental to a company, I was more than helpful in showing you another pitch you just wanted your money back!!

As for there being many people at the site we are also a cafe open to the public, these were not staying on site just day visitors to see our animals and facilities...

Please please read up on a site before booking like I said these reviews can be detrimental to companies, your welcome to your say but please state the facts also.

Tyckte om: Great campsite. Great amenities and really clean and tidy. The campsite felt really safe for the kids to go off and play. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Food from the cafe was beautiful and reasonable prices. (The kids definitely recommend the ice cream and waffle). We will definitely be back next year as we all had a great time.
