We were a family group of 8 adults, 1 toddler and 2 dogs gathered around a Coleman Event Tent. We were only allowed to camp at this site because we were a family. Unfortunately, we were placed in the lowest part of the field well away from the other campers and it was extremely boggy with lots of cow-pats which were not good for an inquisitive toddler. We knew it was a working farm and had we been in the top of the field it would have been more sheltered (from the constant wind) and less cow pats as they like to gather in the bottom corner of the field where we were told to pitch. The facilities were adequate for our needs as we don't expect much but if you want your creature comforts don't choose this site. Toilets and showers clean with free hot water although it does seem to get more tepid towards late afternoon. Free freezer for ice block and tumble drier - not sure how much this was think it was 50p a load. Not easy to find someone to pay for our stay so we came away without paying but sent it by post later. We paid £14 per tent per night, nothing for the gazebo and nothing for the dogs. Shop and pub within easy walking distance and lots of beautiful coastal walks. The weather was bad during our stay and we ran for home before the severe weather warning came into force. The field gets quite muddy and several cars had trouble negotiating the quagmire at the gate. All things considered we would go back here simply for the location but not if rain is forecast.

Lovely quiet peaceful location and very friendly helpful owners although sometimes difficult to find - but it is a working farm and chores have to be done.
Nearby beach is superb and we were informed by the angling shop in Abersoch that the bass fishing off the rocks here is very good but did not get the chance due to our short visit.
Showers and toilets are basic but clean and functional.
One of the site cats came for a walk with us to the beach and was very agile on the rocks!
The Lion pub was very nice with good food at reasonable prices and can be walked to across the fields (in daylight) in about 10 to 15 minutes.
Would definitely return, maybe for a longer spell to get in a bit of fishing!

I chose this site as part of a holiday touring Wales because I love this remote and unspoilt part of Wales out on the Llyn peninsula. The location of this site is perfect; with Towyn beach literally 2 minutes walk just across the lane. The village of Tudweiliog is about 10 mins walk away, and has a good pub and a village store/post office. We received a warm and friendly welcome upon our arrival from Daloni, and whilst we did not need any extra help or assistance during our stay, we certainly had the impression that our hosts were friend and approachable.
This site is a working farm, with sheep, sheepdogs, and a very cheeky farm cat who knows how to get into tents with ease! There are two very flat fields, one with some EHU provided. A third field is used in the summer, but during our stay it was awaiting hay harvesting.
There was very little shelter (wire fences rather than hedges) so the site is a little exposed and we were glad of having our high specification Vango Nevis when a big rain storm hit: I am not sure that cheaper tents (especially of the supermarket and EBay varieties) would have lasted, but that could be true of any UK location, given our unpredictable climate!
The location is excellent for a truly rural experience; lovely walking country, beautiful natural beaches, and the hills as a gorgeous backdrop to it all. We did not travel from here to visit anywhere as our plan was 100% vegging out, but this site is about 1 hour drive to Caernarfon, Pwllheli is about 45 mins away, and Aberdaron on the tip of the peninsula is about 20 minutes away.
The old pigsty has been converted into the facilities block; with three loos for the ladies, a washing up sink, three loos for the gents and then around the corner there is a set of three unisex showers. The showers were free and hot water was plentiful. The shower cubicles are roomy with seat and hooks, so they are well thought out. The standard of cleanliness was good, and a mop/bucket was available in order to encourage campers to keep it that way. There are washing and drying facilities too (coin operated £4 a time) in a separate portacabin block which also had tourist information on display.
The fee of £11 was very reasonable, though we learned from a regular that in the summer holidays there is an extra charge for an issued waste bag, but whilst we were there we just used the farm bins.
There is no play area, but there is plenty of space to play and with the lovely Towyn beach just over the road, this is a perfect location for anyone wanting a beach based holiday, but without the arcades and funfairs.
We loved the remote rural location, the peace and quiet (apart from the usual rural noises of livestock, tractors, Mother Nature’s creatures and the peacock that roams the site) and we will return again when we next want a relaxed Welsh break to recharge our batteries.

I have been coming to this site since my boy was in nappies, and he's now 28!
The facilities have changed over the years, for the better I have to say.
Daloni is now running the site, which is behind the farm itself.
The shower facilities are good being converted from what was the old pig sty. They are well designed and a mop and bucket always available to make it fresh for the next user. Seats and clothing hooks to ensure you keep everything dry!
There are laundry facilities in a small portacabin on site and reasonable prices. The usual chemical disposal point etc.
The site covers 3 fields in total, with the hook ups in the first field. Book early to avoid disappointment, the site books very quickly on these.
The beach is a quick nip over the road, and down the path. A safe sandy beach with clear water good for diving in.
The village is across two fields walk away, village stores and the Lion Hotel that serves good food, and good beers.
A good family site.
