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?

Large Tent - Non-Electric Grass Tent PitchesMay 2025

A good spot in North Wales, close enough to shops and attractions etc, but tucked away enough to have some quiet time too. Site is lovely and for simple camping ticks the box. Showers and kitchen are clean and tidy and little shop has plenty to keep you going.

Great

Medium Tent - Non-Electric Grass Tent PitchesMay 2025

Great site, so quiet and really friendly and helpful staff. Really clean and tidy with some great views. A great base for climb of Snowdon. Only criticism was my son tried to have a shower and it was cold. I had one earlier in the day and it was lovely. Overall would definitely recommend.
