What customers say

This tidy, chill spot boasts lovely riverfront sites, heaps of praise for its cleanliness and friendly staff. Facilities are solid, with a campers' kitchen. Handy for shops and walks. A bit of road noise and weak Wi-Fi noted by some, but most loved the calm vibe and scenery for a cruisy break.

Leah R.

Powered grass campervan or tent site (riverside)

Liked What an amazing campsite. I stayed riverside and it was absolutely glorious. The whole vibe was so calm and peaceful. I had the river running right there, a picnic table and bench and a firepit. The facilities were super clean and the owners were really friendly and welcoming. I went on my own for a night before my sister joined me and I felt so comfortable. There were other females on their own here to. I didn’t use the wifi, I didn’t need to as the phone signal was very strong here. I will definitely be going back. Highly recommended!

Disliked Nothing at all

From the manager: Thank you so much and glad you enjoyed yourself here.

Kelly C.

Middle field powered grass site

Liked Such a quiet location. Huge pitch and great amenities on site! Me and my daughter loved swimming in the river!

Disliked Would have liked some directions to for the wild swimming but other campers happy to help.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Glad you enjoyed it. Any suggestions for wild swimming are welcome. We might put up a suggestion board in the campers kitchen.

Ideal as central location.

Richard P.

Middle field powered grass site

Liked Good central location for Bala and Barmouth etc, loos and showers kept clean. Basic site but they don't claim to be anything else.

Disliked On our final day after heavy rain drainage was poor, had this been on day 1 it would have been an issue. We also had a new neighbour that pitched/parked literally 1m away from us, didn't make a fuss as we were leaving the next day.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sorry about that neighbour - no idea why they pitched so close to you with so much space available to them. Thanks for being so chilled about it.

I think the ground was in shock after such dry weather. But we'll have another look at the drainage. Thanks, and come back any time.

Local attractions

This area is home to some of the most popular walking trails in Eryri/Snowdonia National Park, including the Torrent Walk and Precipice Walk (both trailheads are within 10 minutes' drive). Those of a more ambitious nature may like to tackle the Minffordd Path up Cadair Idris (15 minutes away) or the mountain bike paths at Coed-y-Brenin (20 minutes) while families and leisure cyclists try the riverside Mawddach Trail (10 minutes). Up the thrill levels again with an activity at the National White Water Centre (half an hour) or one of the adventures on offer at Zip World Llechwedd (40 minutes). All a bit too hair-raising? Opt instead to visit the Dyfi Osprey Project (half an hour) or take a stroll around the colourful village of Portmeirion (40 minutes). Taking to the coast is always an option, too – perhaps for some bird spotting at RSPB Mawddach Valley (10 minutes), some history at Harlech Castle (45 minutes) or a day on the beach at Barmouth (25 minutes).
