A note from the site themselves...

Our sole aim is to provide the kind of campsite that we as a family would be happy to visit, again and again. We appreciate the desire to be in the heart of the action but miles from anywhere, to be able to see the sunrise in the morning and set in the evening, the smell of bacon cooking and the pleasure of sitting around the fire pit with family and friends.

Is there a better way to start and end your day of adventure in north Wales?

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2024

Great spacious pitches in the camping field. It did get quite soggyi n the heavy rain but it soon drained. The toilets/showers were very clean and tidy. We had a wonderful time, with grown up family with us. It was a nice quiet site away from main roads. There was a nice walk to a stream and play area Some of our party are going to be booking again in the next couple of weeks, to stay with friends. We will be definitely be visiting again.

Amazing!
