We are so happy we chose to stay at Nantcol. The site was perfect from the stunning views, running water and waterfall trail. We took our dog who loved it too. The camp site it well equipped and we loved being sticker away surrounded by nature. We loved having a campfire and getting cosy and that shell island is just a short drive away to spend the day. We also liked the town pub called Victoria Inn. The staff at the reception were lovely and helpful too and checking out at 12pm is a great time to get breakfast and pack away. We can’t wait to come back.

An absolutely stunning area, walks beautiful, reception lovely and friendly staff. Pitch a good size but for the amount of people there, not enough toilets and showers, unless we missed some! Only 6 ladies toilets and 2 showers with lots of people! Fire pit good but wood wouldn't burn and you have to carry fire pit, which was heavy and dirty. No music rule was a little annoying as there were some very unruly/noisy children and music could have drowned them out in the day! Good range of drinks and ice cream, we would definitely return as location was amazing, and all very clean and well kept

We had a lovely stay! The location was secure and very picturesque. I feel I should justify my 4*s. The location is lovely, phone signal is a bit tricky and did have an impact in navigation and organisation once at the site. The facilities were great, but the shower tokens were a bit of a faff. You get 5 minutes per token and then no water at all. With kids, this can be difficult. Apart from that, I can't recommend it enough. Great hosts who leave you to get settled in. Friendly camper environment, and the stream is a gorgeous setting.
lovely site

Arrived to campsite later than planned (8pm) due to car breaking down on steep mountain road .Phoned campsite to inform them and was told no problem, they would wait to greet us. The access to the campsite is via some very narrow and winding roads but exceptionally beautiful, with streams and lambs running through. Caution is advised if you have a larger motorhome or caravan due to single track access and not many passing places. But don't let this put you off coming here as it all adds to the excitement of the holiday 😊 We were met by the owner, who was extremely pleasant and told us we could set up any where we liked. Nearer the stream is non electric and ideal for tents or motorhomes some areas have gravel hardstandings, but we have always preferred grass. Everywhere you look, the campsite is beautiful, with hills and trees and streams. It is very idyllic and as it was April, the lambs in the field behind our caravan were a delight to watch and hear. The toilets and showers were very clean and you pay 50p for a token that gets you 5 minutes of a lovely hot shower. There are washing up areas and a laundrette. The reception sells very basic items but you are only 3 miles from Harlech which has a biggish One Stop and Barmouth in the opposite direction has a Co-op for a larger shop. We originally booked for 3 nights, but managed to book an extra 6 nights before we came and we were so pleased we did as although we like to relax on our hols, we also like to travel and see some of the surrounding area. Snowdonia is amazingly beautiful and if you have never been before, I cannot recommend it highly enough. Me and my husband both agreed that it turned out to be in our top 3 of holidays we have taken since we started caravanning 4 years ago. We will definitely be back and are already planning to book for next year, and we have never been to the same campsite twice so that shows how highly we thought of this campsite and area.
Well impressed

Such a beautiful and peaceful campsite. Has four different walks straight from the site, all of which are amazing. Can go for a bit of cold water swimming in the waterfalls. Toilets and showers were working and clean, available 24/7. The owners are so kind and helpful. Thankyou for a wholesome weekend!

Comfortable site, spacious pitches (although you can’t guarantee someone won’t come along and pitch right next to you), great bathroom facilities, nice and clean. Ice cream sold at the shop and lovely walks around the site. I had a very relaxing stay.

A lovely site, with plenty of options for camping, or motorhomes/caravans. Helpful staff and in a beautiful setting. I stayed with my dog through the week. It got a bit busier on the Friday, so I could imagine that it would quieter to stay away from grid/Saturdays. I fully recommend Nantcols site.

We have just got back from 3 nights and it was beautiful! We didn't want to leave and will be returning! Location is fantastic, with a waterfall and ankle high stream on site. The facilities were spotless. I would say make sure to pack plenty of the necessities as the shop does not stock much and the nearest is a good 50 minute walk away. If you want somewhere that gives you no choice but to put technology away (no signal) and just enjoy your surroundings, this is definitely for you!
Just the best

Top notch campsite! Very well appointed with lovely modern facilities whilst maintaining a rustic appearance. Set in a lovely location but bring everything you need as there's nothing nearby. My type of place but not going to be for everyone. Very good value for money.

Super helpful staff. Idyllic location. We had sheep grazing on the hillside beside us, rabbits sharing the fields and small birds keeping us company. Walked up beside waterfalls for a cracking view and another brisk stroll to local village, shops, cafe, pub and restaurant. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic hosts and very friendly. The site is well spaced out and in a lovely location. Our bell tent was very spacious and the bed was extremely comfy. We had a fridge, kettle and toaster in there. Excellent facilities and very clean. We will definitely be back.

Have just been and spent the bank holiday here, I can say it is a must visit. The site is very clean, tidy, and well maintained. On site facilities are again very clean with everything you need close to the camping areas. The staff on arrival were very friendly and helpful. The check in process was very quick and easy. The location is stunning, with plenty of walks around the local area and up past the waterfalls that run through the site. Kids loved swimming in the stream, hours of fun to be had.
