We just had an overnight stay to run our dogs on Barmouth beach. The campsite is a short drive away. What a beautiful site it is. I would think for families with kids, it is great. There is a safe river to play in. There are some easy walks around the area as well. It's a very clean and well looked after site. We will use it again I am sure.

Probably one of the best campsites we have stayed at. The family who run the park were so friendly and nothing was too much. The rivers and waterfalls were incredible and a lovely, peaceful walk. Friday night the campsite was busy for this time of year but still so quiet and peaceful. And the campfire was fantastic! Definitely will visit again.

Lovely charming site. Ideal for a base camp for walking. Had two nights, lovely clean showers and toilets. 50 pence for 5 minutes for showers. Looking forward to going back.

Amazing place

Staying at Nantcol Waterfalls was one of the best experiences of our life. The location is just perfect with breathtaking scenery (waterfall walks, river walk, lots of picnic areas). Facilities spotless - nice and clean. Me, my husband and our dog loved it. ❤️

Very nice place

An undeniably beautiful place. Very popular site but it did manage to be very quiet. Not totally happy paying extra for showers when you already paid £6 per night for hook-up. Also might be worth making it clear that the waterfalls/river are open to the public too and also that the drinking water is not from the mains (deep bore hole) and the site says you may want to boil it. We didn't boil it and had no problems at all but should it be mentioned? We booked for 3 nights with a view to extend by 1 more night, an option offered at booking. However, when we checked in, we were told "extending" was not possible as they were full. Fair enough if they've filled since - but email me and let me know. Overall a good stay on balance.

Site's response

We don't usually book up in September, however, due to the mini heatwave, our site booked up for the weekend during the week. As we are controlled by allocations set out by Authorities, we need to be within the law. As mentioned in previous reviews, the 50p shower allows only Camping clientele to use the facilities and also controls usage. It has been the same price since 2009 and will remain (cost of half a packet of crisps or one third of a can of Coke!) Electricity was £5 last year, and greedy energy companies demanded a 300% increase in April so hook up should be £15. We're not greedy so increased by a £1! We are very satisfied and grateful that on overall balance, it was a good stay!

We liked this site so much that we decided to stay a second night. We loved the beautiful location by the river side, and spacious camping areas. There were wonderful views and a variety of walks accessible from this site. The facilities were excellent and the reception staff were friendly and helpful. Having the mobile pizza business on site was an added bonus and the pizzas were delicious. Would definitely recommend this site and would like to come again.

Perfect area!

Lovely campsite nestled in the forest next to waterfalls. Close to the main coastal road to drive into the Llyn. Liked the fact that there was plenty of space to choose from to pitch and rules to keep loud music at bay.

Amazing stay, relaxing and serene

Loved it, the location was amazing. You can walk up to the waterfall, which was very pretty. There's a walk around the site, which I would recommend. The customer service was spot on.

Honestly one of the nicest campsites I've ever visited. Great atmosphere, the facilities were all okay, lovely friendly service at reception and lots of thoughtful touches (I particularly appreciated all the walks around the nearby hills that the owners have laid out). Just great all round.

Beautiful area and really lovely and helpful staff, dropped off shower cards at our tents and let us pay next day after we realised we'd get back after reception closed. Good clean facilities and good range of camping extras at reception. Note, not near any shops so plan ahead (our fault for not checking beforehand).
