Torrent Walk Campsite and Bunkhouse Reviews

Relaxing site

On arrival, the pitch wasn't suitable for us. I spoke to the staff, they swapped us straight away, came over to check we were okay and got the electric opened up. The site is well kept and welcomes all types of camping, large and small. Showers were lovely and warm, I like that you don't have to keep pressing a button to keep the shower running. The only downside was as the site filled up, the water pressure went down rapidly. We would stay at this site again to use as a base location, it's not somewhere to stay if you don't want to drive about.

Lovely site

Stayed here for one night in a Campervan! Loved the fact that you can book online, they send your pitch number and then your done. Beautiful views, it was quiet and friendly. The site has everything you'd need, the facilities were lovely and clean, I would use these again.

Good for visiting Mach Loop

Perfect little place to stay if visiting the Mach Loop. Beautiful views and easy to find, very close to a petrol station which is handy. Clean toilets and showers.

Thanks Karen for your kind review.

We loved the campsite

We loved your campsite and area.

Well-organised site

Well organised site with excellent facilities, close to Dolgellau and some great walks and bike rides. The only downside is that it is close to a very busy and noisy A road. Otherwise, the setting is beautiful.

Nice, tidy site, not too far from town

Nice site with good facilities, close to Dolgellau town. Great to have a site with bike storage.

Great site

Perfect location for exploring, we visited lots of national parks and towns around us. The pitch we had was a big size with a water tap as well, which was a bonus. The site was self check in so we never actually spoke to anyone! The facilities were nice but there was only two toilets in the girls which made it difficult and they got gross quite quickly. I will say they were cleaning them twice a day, so it was more other people than the site. Peak season made it very busy, so it's supposed to be quiet after 11pm but it was very loud to the early hours. Also, I would say it's one of the more expensive sites I've been too, but once again, I don't know if that's because it's August. I would personally visit again just out of peak season, as I think I would be able to enjoy the site more. Overall, more positive than negative!

Lovely site

We booked last minute for 2 electric pitches for tents, got both together which was good. We were on the overflow site, so was up a bit of a hill which would be too steep for wheelchair access. Also, one of our party lost part of bottom bumper on the hill. Site was really quiet, pitches in our section were spread out. No problems with electric. Showers & toilets clean. Plenty of showers, never had to queue, water wasn't boiling but good temp. We borrowed a fire pit for £25 which when you returned, got £20 back, so £5 for full stay wasn't bad. We even saw the Northern Lights, which was amazing. Nice national park nearby, Barmouth beach is lovely, about 50 min drive from Portmerion.

Thanks for your lovely review Ella. We're glad you enjoyed your stay with us and the northern lights were a bonus!

Lovely stay

Lovely stay at Torrent Walk. Pitch was a good size for our large tent and facilities on site good and friendly staff. There is some road noise in the day but it's minimal and didn't impact us. Great location for getting round to everything in the area.

Weekend with friends

Great location for climbing Cadair Idris and visiting local attractions. The site was very busy. however, it was quiet at night which was great! My only concern were the very limited number of toilets and showers for the number of people on site, some could also do with updating. There was plenty of nice hot water though.

Noisy road

Great location for visiting Dolgellau and making the most of local walks. This park is lovely and clean but it is located under a busy road. The noise from motorbikes on a Sunday morning (when they tend to be out for their weekend spins) was unreal.

Great site, look forward to returning

We have loved our stay. It's a great site, well located for us wanting to explore the Mach loop and having the beautiful Torrent Walk on the doorstep is perfect. We enjoyed a walk there every evening. It has been quite a wet week and I think if the site had been busier, or if there had been anymore rain, it would have been a very muddy site, not a problem if you are pitched along the road side. The site is so accommodating for so many different campers and groups, but I would recommend checking the dates for any festivals in Dolgellau as over the weekend, the site had a lot of very loud very drunk youngsters camping in large groups coming back very loudly at 2am. There was a member of staff trying her best to get them quiet but without much success, I understand why so many sites don't allow group bookings. Toilet and shower facilities were great and near most pitches, plenty of hot water. Pitches were a great size. Overall a lovely stay and we will be back.

Camping

Very nice site. Decent amount of space per pitch. Clean toilets, showers and washing up area. Would recommend.

Great little, family friendly site

A great little family campsite, even though I was a solitary male camping. It was a wonderful stay and I shall certainly be heading back with my kids in tow.

Excellent

Great location not far from town centre and food places, pubs and shops. Ideal if you want to go to other places like Bala etc. Facilities are spotless, cleaner on site from morning until late at night, keeping facilities spotless. Fridge and freezer to share, washing machine and dryer and microwave and kettle. Sinks to wash dishes. Free hot showers, men and women, with overspill showers when busy. Site has camping caravan pitches, lodges etc.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to see you again sometime.

Overnight stay

Nice campsite within a short taxi ride of Dolgellau, clean facilities.

Shame about the road and certain other campers

The campsite is very convenient for Cadir Idris if you are intending to climb it. Do not use this site if you want peace & quiet as it is situated next to a very busy road. I would recommend earplugs if you are a light sleeper. There is a rule that noise is kept to a minimum after 11pm, but this was not followed by the usual type of selfish campers and not enforced as well as I would like. I did enjoy the site as the facilities were great & clean, but have no intention of returning because of the road.

Fantastic site

Great site and fantastic location, could not get much better. A notice board with details of walks, bike rides and how to get to the bike park. I had a great time, love the site. Thanks, will be back. Just one thing, why are the urinals running all the time with hot water, must cost a lot.

Superb campsite

Fantastic site with all the amenities you need. Will definitely go back 😃

Good location and well-priced

Booked last minute and needed a good base for activities. Check-in easy, good facilities and location, short drive from town or various sporting activities.

Thanks for the great review Craig, glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again sometime!

Wales break

A very busy site, we arrived and the pitch we were given wasn't very flat for our campervan. I went to the office where I was greeted by a tattooed Polish lady who was fantastic, so helpful and couldn't do enough for our needs - a very valuable member of staff.

The stay was very scenic

The place was beautiful and the view of the surrounding mountains was unreal. There is everything you need there and after 11pm, its completely quiet which is amazing.
