Absolutely stunning little campsite. Could not fault it in any way. Everything was top notch and spotlessly clean. Nathan, the site owner, was super friendly and gave us lots of helpful tips. Looking forward to a return visit soon.

Well situated 10 mins from Llanberis. Spotless facilities, lots of got water with no timers in the showers! Nathan was about most of the time and couldn't do enough for you. Used Sherpa to climb Snowdon, which meant we didn't fight for parking on a bank holiday and could use two different routes up and down.

Seema, it was lovely to have yourself and your husband stay with us, loved the VW van! Thank you for the tips you gave us to enhance customer experience, we've started actioning them already. Hope to see you both soon and hope the curry in Birmingham was nice :)

Great site, couldn't be more helpful

Spent the Easter weekend at the campsite, was a fantastic experience overall. Nathan and the team really looked after us, and made sure our stay was great. The facilities were really clean and in perfect working order, and the location of the campsite was great too- close to supermarkets and a pub if dinning out, plus, only a short drive/bus ride from some of the Mount Snowdon trails. Nathan also gave us some great recommendations of things to do/see in Snowdonia. Would 100% stay again!

Site's response

Thanks so much for your kind words, Thomas. It was a pleasure to have you both stay at Llys Derwen and glad to hear you had such a nice time. Hope to see you both again some time soon.

Excellent campsite

A campsite which has been in the family for over 25 years and now the younger generation are running it. The site is easy to find using satnav, the grounds are beautifully kept and they have just installed a new reception area, which blends into the surroundings. The shower block is immaculate and smells divine. Huge dog walking field is a bonus. If you enjoy outdoor activities this is close to so many, Dinorwig Quarry, The Slate Museum, Yr Wyddfa and of course the fastest zipwire in the world! Not too far away is Black Rock Sands, a beautiful beach. Nathan was on hand for any queries and was most helpful. Would definitely recommend staying here.

After having a nightmare journey, we rang the site as we knew we would be late arriving. Nathan emailed me a map showing us where our pitch was and still came out to check we were ok when we arrived and it was pouring down. The site was perfectly placed for us with a pub serving good food at the end of the road and a short drive into Caernarfon. Nathan recommended Wal for breakfast and it was amazing! The toilet block was immaculate and we wouldn't hesitate in booking to stay again in the future.

Site's response

Thank you very much for the positive review Kathryn, hope to see you again with some better weather next time. Glad the breakfast was a hit. Nathan
