Just quick overnight stay in a tent after climbing Snowdon. Am not a regular camper but was easy to navigate round and facilities were excellent. Staff were also friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience

Single Axle Caravan - Fully Serviced Hardstanding PitchesAug 2024

Had it been made clear this site was subject to intense and regular winds, we would never have booked. As a family, we rely on the space offered by an awning. Paid for the awning for 7 nights and had to take it down after first night at the suggestion of the seasonal pitch holders to prevent destruction. We did and there was no offer of a refund. The seasonal pitches stated it was a common occurrence and most had lost awnings. There were several tents destroyed whilst we were there and ruined awnings. I felt this could be highlighted in the sales particulars. Some pitches are protected and are fine, most are not. Suitable only to those not using awnings or tents on the majority of pitches.

Absolutely amazing!

Excellent stay at this campsite. Got a great pitch, lovely views! Only thing I would say is the toilets seemed to get closed and cleaned at peak time 8-9ish in the morning, which made it a bit longer to get everyone ready. Other than that, all the staff were lovely and really helpful. Definitely recommend.

Amazing place

A stunning place to stay with exceptionally helpful and kind staff. It was very clean and lovely for children and adults alike. The tipsy trailer and the pizza van are a lovely touch, they have a well stocked shop for the necessities and a great little games room. A special mention to Bev in the office who was really kind and helpful when we needed a hand after a windy night. Can't wait to go back.

Fantastic site

Very, very clean and tidy site, all members of staff that we met were so friendly and helpful. Set in beautiful surroundings, loved the designated dog walking area right next to our plot, The food bar on site (Yr Wyddfa) was very nice, Welsh black beef bap with chips and gravy was amazing, toilet and shower block was very clean and tidy, we will be returning.

Overall, the stay was enjoyable. However, the toilets and showers are somewhat lacking. Some residents were not adhering to the "quiet time" set by the campsite and would be good to have a couple of fields as adults only.

Stunning location

Large Tent - Electric Grass PitchesJul 2024

A stunning location, very friendly members of staff. Only down side was that I found that there were not enough toilets for the number of pitches and they were pretty dirty and grubby. Which, I know is to be expected. However, I have stayed in places where the facilities have been much cleaner and on a larger campsite. Can't take away from the fact though that it was a stunning location.

A brilliant site set in a beautiful setting. The Shepherds Huts we booked were great. Great facilities and toilets/ showers. Special mention for the breakfast and supper wagon and especially the mobile cocktail bar!

Great campsite in a great location

Large Tent - Electric Grass PitchesJul 2024

Bryn Gloch is one of the best campsites I have been to so far. It's location is fantastic and it boasts beautiful scenery, with plenty of local walks and hikes available as well as easy access to Snowdon trails. From check-in and throughout the stay, the staff were very approachable, helpful and friendly. We had an electrical hook-up tent pitch and had no issues with power. There were several toilet/shower blocks around the campsite, of which were all easily accessible throughout the day, well maintained and no large queues formed at any point. Clothes washing facilities and drying rooms were available. BBQ and campfires are allowed and added to the experience. They have campfire equipment for hire and plenty available at a great price. There is an on-site shop available that stocks most things you may need to top up on throughout your stay, such as basic food items, drinks etc. There is also an onsite food truck that provides breakfast and dinner options for those who do not wish to cook or BBQ for themselves. There are also evenings when other food and drink vans attend the venue for cocktail evenings and pizza etc, which is great! I would have given 5 starts across the board. The only reason I have not is because the on-site shop closes relatively early during the week (5pm). If like us, you set off early for a hike and do not return until after 5pm, you have no access to items you may need for that evening. There is a local shop and Tesco a short drive away, but that involves going out again when you feel exhausted from your adventures. Also, the food truck may not be available on certain days / evenings. However, during our stay we went to the van for coffee whilst packing up, on a day it should have been available and it was not there due to being at another event.

Great site, staff very helpful as we are new to camping. Very clean, location great for Caernarfon and Snowdon. Free Wi-Fi and showers plentiful and hot. Pitches are good and flat and it was a nice walk down the river. We would return.

Really enjoyable. My partner and I went up Snowdon on the morning and stayed here after. Slept really well, even with aching legs! Woke up to stunning views and a nice warm shower.

Great campsite for everyone!

Medium Tent - Electric Grass PitchesJul 2024

I have stayed at Bryn Gloch 2 times now, both times in July. Both times we used the up to 6m tent pitch with electric, which works great! (you need the electric hook up as standard for camping). The campsite is in a perfect, peaceful location and lovely atmosphere to have a barbecue! The camp is tidy and the facilities are good and clean, considering the size of the site. We really enjoyed our time here!

Great facility and a good base location. Lovely, quiet site. The food outlets each night were excellent and the 'Tipsy Trailer' was a particularly welcome end to the evenings.

Trailer Tent - Fully Serviced Grass PitchesJul 2024

It was great until the weekend, when we had a very large group opposite for 2 days. Swearing, music until late, very loud shouting, littered the place. Spoiled the whole relaxing atmosphere.

Excellent stay
