Liked: Beautiful views Close to waterfalls Farm stay so corrugated tin used in toilet and showers which adds to rustic charm. Lovely hot showers and flushing toilets is a bonus. A working farm with hardworking folks making extra from using a field for camping. This is not a hard standing caravan site (thank the gods) but a beautiful field that is not flattened but well drained in a stunning location. Bryn Bach has everything you need. Firewood and a chat brought to you. Great new showers at the bottom of the fields. Hot and refreshing after a long day of walking the waterfall path.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike. Just a suggestion. A map of the waterfalls route back to the road perhaps? We took a wrong turn / misunderstood the directions and ended up walking a much longer route than we had intended. A laminated map in the washing up block that we could take a photo of for our hike would have been super helpful!

Liked: Lovely relaxed site, fab view and handy for waterfalls walk. Clean facilities though not many of them - can imagine on a busy weekend there'd be a queue. Could do with a couple of hooks by the sinks to hang towel/wash bag on. We loved it and had a great time.
