Electric grass pitch
Liked: Lovely rural site
Children loved feeding the donkeys
Good facilities
Disliked: Not particularly a dislike rather than for information: fires need to be out at 10:30, we weren’t told on check in because there was a few of us and they come round to check fires are out.
The last bit of the road is very narrow.

Beautiful scenery, well kept, friendly site
Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: We received a warm welcome from the warden when we arrived and a tour of the facilities. There are information boards with walks around the farm and the area, also directions to the local pub.
The site was immaculate and looked lovely.
Our pitch was large, level and had beautiful views of the mountains.
The toilet and shower facilities were very clean and the showers were excellent. There was also a washing up area with, fridges/freezers, washing machines and a microwave.
The site had a little shop where you could buy produce from the farm, snacks, ice cream and basics that you may need. They have fire pits you can hire and sell logs and kindling. The pitches all have a concrete slab for your fire so the grass stays nice and keeps the fire away from the tents.
The site is located a short 4 mile drive from Caernarfon where there are at least 3 big supermarkets that we saw. There is a petrol station about 2 miles from the site which has an excellent shop too. It’s a short drive to a lot of lovely places, our favourites were Llanberis and Beddgelert.
We would definitely like to stay again, a week wasn’t long enough to see everything we wanted to.
Thank you for a brilliant stay.
Disliked: Price of kindling was a bit high for what you got.
The farmer was spreading lime on the fields which was blowing across the site one day, it covered everything and meant we had to sit inside, but I guess this not a regular occurrence

Fabulous hosts, great views and excellent facilities
Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Very friendly welcome, plenty of space between pitches. Handy little shop with a much needed coffee machine after a long drive in the rain! Very clean facilities and lots of useful information on site for local area. Easy to find the site.

Camping pod
Liked: The campsite is in a great location and very well maintained clean facilities and tidy grounds.
Disliked: our stay was let down by a nearby family whose children were shouting and screaming until late (around 11 pm). We were hoping for a quiet, relaxing weekend, but the noise made that difficult. Possibly just bad luck with timing

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Lovely site in beautiful countryside. Nice pub 15 minutes walk away.
We were in the bottom field which is a little walk to the toilets etc, may bother some people but fine for us. Not that many toilets and showers for the size of the site however we never had to queue for one and they were regularly maintained and always clean.
All the staff we met were lovely, friendly and polite, they did a walk round at 10.30 to remind people to put out campfires. Everyone seemed to respect the no noise after 10.30 rule.
Would definitely return, lovely site.
Disliked: Nothing to complain about apart from the British weather one of the nights 😂⛈️ However our tent did survive a very big thunderstorm!

Good walks for the children with animals and streams.

Perfect place for a weekend camping trip with family
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Lovely clean facilities and helpful friendly staff. A nice play area with farm animals and plenty of open space for the children to run around. A short walk up from the play area is a little river for them to also have a paddle. We were 1 of 3 family groups (large family) and they even managed to put our pitches together which gave the children lots of extra space to play by our pitches. This was our second visit, and definitely not our last! Thankyou for a lovely stay! Family from Penmaenmawr who were cooking the pizzas 😉
Disliked: Nothing.
