Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Good Washing facilities, the family washroom was a big bonus. Good playpark for the kids and lots of animals on site for our kids to look at. Tent pitch was nice and large grounds well maintained, we had heavy rain during out stay and the grass held up well and didnt turn muddy.
Disliked: couldn't get on the Wifi on our pitch (didn't expect to anyways so not a big deal for me)

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (large)
Liked: Location is amazing!
Hosts are very nice and helpful!
Walks are spectacular!
Close to children attractions!
Playground good but to far from pitches!
We have enjoyed our stay!
Disliked: WiFi is really bad, for rainy days you need your own network for sure and 4G is not generous due to mountains.
Something that was really bad and needs improving is laundry facilities, I understand you have to pay to do it no problem but equipment is very outdated, £5 for a 40 min wash and whopping £8 for dryer with still wet clothes! Just don’t bother drive down to shell garage and use proper facilities.

From the manager: Thanks for your feedback. Re the laundry, the prices have not changed for 4 years. We use the machines almost everyday for our laundry from our accommodation units, and find them efficient. Like all driers it depends what you put in them so an entire load of washing from the machine will take a long time to dry, but if its done in part then it will dry quickly.
As for the WiFi once people start to stream or use on line gaming then yes the service deteriorates. We do use Starlink since fibre is still not an option for us.

Family-friendly campsite with scenic views and farm animals.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Tyn-yr-Onnen offers a picturesque setting at the foot of Moel Eilio, providing stunning views and a tranquil atmosphere. The campsite is exceptionally family-friendly, featuring a well-maintained play area with swings, a sandpit, and ample space for children to explore safely. The presence of farm animals like donkeys, llamas, and chickens adds a delightful touch, allowing kids to engage with nature firsthand. Facilities are clean and modern, including free hot showers, baby changing areas, and a utility room equipped with fridges and washing machines. The on-site shop offers essential items, and the allowance of campfires enhances the authentic camping experience. Additionally, the campsite's proximity to Snowdonia National Park makes it an ideal base for exploring the region.
Disliked: While the overall experience was positive, a few aspects could be improved. The access road to the campsite is narrow with limited passing spots, which can be challenging for larger vehicles. Some pitches have stony ground, making tent setup a bit difficult. Additionally, the play area, while enjoyable, could benefit from more diverse equipment to cater to a wider age range. The on-site shop has limited hours, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals or those needing supplies outside of peak times.
