It was our first time visiting Cwmdu and what a beautiful place. We first were put on a pitch which was a little small for our drive away awning and we let the owner know and straight away she gave us the choice of a new spot and she was absolutely lovely. Really helpful and wanted us to be happy. The site is so clean and lovely, the facilities are nice lovely wooden park for the children, my 10 and 14 year old enjoyed it: The shower rooms and toilets are immaculate and clean. There is a shop what sells lovely things and a hut with hot drinks and pastries: all staff were very friendly and lovely. Already recommended to mates and will defo be coming back. Thanks Cwmdu campsite x

The staff really make this place; their love and passion for the site really comes through. I enjoyed a lovely 4 nights here with my two dogs. A very well thought-out camping site, with pitches very sensibly arranged to ensure privacy yet all still have a stunning view. All of the staff were so lovely and worked tirelessly to keep the site spotless and ensure everyone had an enjoyable time. I particularly like that you could borrow laminated walking routes from the camp shop. The shop is really well stocked and had everything you could need at reasonable prices. The only slight downside is that the Wi-Fi kept dropping out when there were more people on the site, (worked great on the quieter days) normally this wouldn't be an issue but I had no mobile phone service at all so just something to be aware of if you need to be contactable for work. Overall, a fabulous stay and will definitely be returning! Thank you for a lovely trip Cwmdu campsite!
