Fronalchen Caravan Park

A aimé : Spent the weekend at Fronalchen campsite with 4 friends and we all really enjoyed our time there

Lots of great facilities such as hot showers, toilets and plenty of bins on site

Great location close to a petrol station, a shop and a Starbucks and not too far from where we was visiting

Absolutely spotless site with no rubbish/ litter anywhere on site

Very well priced too which is always nice

Thanks

A aimé : I have been camping at Fronalchen for a few years now, and I wouldn't camp anywhere else in this region.
The site is a back to basics campsite, which for me, at least is what camping is all about.
There are showers and toilets, an outdoor washing up area, an elsan disposal area, electric points, and a drinking water tap.
You choose your own pitch, and you are left to get on with it, although the owners are only a few minutes away if needed. The owners are friendly, helpful, and very accommodating.
The camping field is flat, well drained, although, being Wales, the entrance to the camping field can get a bit muddy at times with the rain. There is a river that runs alongside the field, which is perfect for the dogs, (and supervised kids), on those hot, summer days.
The views are spectacular!
It's the perfect place to relax and unwind, even though there is a Starbucks, and garage with a large shop just a ten minute walk away.
The little town of Dolgellau is also only a short drive, or a pleasant walk of around 30 minutes away.
I would 100% recommend this site and will continue to enjoy my visits here for years to come.

A aimé : Incredible location, the views and river and beautiful. It wasn’t overcrowded so there was plenty of space between us and the next group.

N'a pas aimé: Toilets were dirty, the unit blocked at one point so we couldn’t use them :(

Réponse du gestionnaire : Sorry about this, toilets are checked every hour, the weather was against us on the Friday and that mud was carrying into toilets, as you could see we are just finishing off our new block now and hopefully people will respect these more , Thank you

A aimé : Everything! Absolutely love this campsite!
We have been 4 times and already booked for are 5th trip,
This sites good for tents as we have never struggled with uneven pitches etc,
They are currently revamping the toilet blocks so have had temporary toilets and shower blocks there, the toilets were kept lovely and clean, constantly stocked with toilet paper, hand soaps, the showers were lovely and warm also kept clean,
The views from the campsite are stunning, and the star gazing of and evening is beautiful,
The owners and everyone who works there are all so lovely and very helpful,
We can’t wait to return in August and to return many more times, absolutely beautiful place to camp!
100% would recommend

A aimé : Had a really nice stay at this campsite in North Wales. The location was peaceful with beautiful surroundings, and it had a really relaxed, welcoming vibe. What stood out most was how easy everything was—from getting there to setting up. Access to the site was simple, with clear signage and well-maintained paths, which made arriving stress-free.

The facilities were clean and convenient, and the pitches were spacious with enough privacy. It was a great base for exploring the local area, with plenty of walks and views right on the doorstep.

Perfect for a laid-back camping trip—would definitely stay again!

A aimé : Stunning views! The field for camping was huge so everyone had plenty of space. You could choose your own pitch and also have your car with you. The owner also sold wood for firepits which was quite cheap so it was lovely to have fires in the evenings. The showers were also lovely and hot.

N'a pas aimé: We knew this was a basic campsite but unfortunately it wasn't very clean. There was no hot water at the washing up area or in the toilets for hand washing and the soap dispenser in the ladies was was always empty. Also, the flooring in the ladies toilets was extremely damp, areas had been patched up and sometimes when brushing your teeth your felt like you were sinking!

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks for the review. We will take your comments on board and discuss accordingly. We do clean the toilets and facilities as regular as possible but can become difficult when toilets are in constant use over peak times. Thanks again.

A aimé : This is my 4th or 5th time at the site since 2020.. every review I've left has been a positive one. I spent bank holiday Monday here on my own and felt very safe (even woth the wild winds). I was joined layer in the week by extended family who also loved the site. We have swam in the river and played in the field. Campfires and smores at nighttime and visited Barmouth Beach and Bala lake. We even arranged with the owners Nia and her husband to stay an extra night and leave on Sunday.. the skies at night have been beautiful 😍 the kids have loved getting back to basics with no TV or video games.. would highly recommend if you want a basic site where you have no choice but to relax and enjoy the scenery and the sound of the river.. can't wait to be back here and I haven't even left yet!

N'a pas aimé: The fact that others leave their waste and rubbish when there are ample bins at the start of the site and expect the owners to pick up after them..
