Liked: Great facilities and location. Nice views and quiet. Covered space for rainy evenings v useful.
Disliked: Maybe a couple of new ping pong balls needed.

From the manager: Many thanks for the review and thanks also for pointing that out. I found two good ones had gone over the wall into the barn next door, so I think netting along the top of the wall would solve that. Cheers
Set within Rolling Hills and Stunning Views.

Liked: This was our first time staying at Glynmarch. The farm and adjoining campsite is set overlooking stunning rolling hills and endless skies. With sheep, cows and plenty of birds to see. The site is immaculate, with toilets, showers and a kitchen area to wash your dishes. The owners Steve and Marion even have a freezer for you to use along with a barn area with ping pong and ring toss, which the kids loved. Charging points for phones and a lovely swinging chair looking out over the hills. At the bottom of the valley which is just a few minutes walk is a beautiful river which surrounds a small island. A stunning place to sit with a cuppa and watch the world go by. A few minutes drive is the Angel Inn, where they serve fantastic food and drink and stunning puddings. The staff are wonderful. All in all a peace of heaven hidden away in the hills of Wales.
Disliked: Leaving :(

Liked: Wonderfully quiet location, just the sound of the breeze, the birds, the sheep, and the odd cow.
Loved having the river nearby for a bracing morning dip!
Being able to have a campfire was an absolute must and very much appreciated.
Simple structures for washing up, half-outdoor showers and compost loo were great.
Teenagers forgot their phones for a while and played table tennis which was a real joy and harked back to my own childhood memories of campsites with games rooms. They were however happy to have somewhere to recharge their phones while they played!
Had everything we needed to be comfortable, with no unnecessary bells and whistles!
Really friendly host who came round to say hello, see how we were getting on and reassure us that we didn't need to rush our pack down.
Disliked: Our teenage girls were a bit peeved that there wasn't really any wifi but the adults welcomed this!

Liked: This place was fantastic! Beautiful views, quiet (mainly due to the fact that we were lucky to be the only ones there!) Lovely open ceiling showers, toilets and a river you can take a dip in. The owners were also very lovely and welcoming. We will definitely return!

Liked: Prachtige ruime plekken die zijn gecreëerd door gras deels te maaien. Aardige, behulpzame campingeigenaar. Sanitair is schoon maar primitief, maar dat is de charme van deze plek. Lekker douchen met uitzicht op de sterren! Prachtig zicht op de heuvels rondom. Geweldige plek!

Liked: Fantastic location deep in the most pristine Welsh countryside. You pretty much have the run of the farm and you can explore down to the totally wild stretch of stream down in the valley. The numerous trees are gorgeous and the views from the camping field are captivating. Campsite facilities done and maintained perfectly, with warm solar showers open to the sky and really good compost loos. Had a nice couple of chats with the friendly and very interesting owners…
Excellent gastro/real ale-pub 3 miles away the Black Lion at Abergorlech. Confusingly, there is a pub of the same name nearer the campsite in llansawel, but the one at Abergorlech is worth the short treck… make sure to book 😊
