Small Tent - Non Electric Sea View Grass Tent PitchesSep 2024

We enjoyed our stay and the proximity to the sea and Snowdonia. The pitch was well taken care of, as were the facilities. Hot showers, clean toilets and easy to access. The firewood was an added bonus and the pre arrival experience was really smooth. Would stay here again.

Quiet, picturesque campsite

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2024

Comfy despite storm! Despite camping in a named storm near the sea the site was comfortable. Our little enclosed camp space sheltered us from the worst of the wind. There's a lovely beach a short walk away and the nearby peaks look like they'd make an exciting hike. Showers were well fitted though when there's a rush of people using them. We found the hot water ran out but waiting a spell is all that's needed for that. Having Caernarfon nearby was very convenient for getting supplies, having a meal out or seeing historic sites. Despite having a dozen other groups on site, we could barely tell they were there which was lovely. Parking is a short walk from the camps, but wheelbarrows are provided for moving kit though if you have accessibility needs, this could prove challenging. Would certainly go again. At around £32 per night for 2 adults and as seasoned campers, it's as comfy to us as a hotel.
