The staff were wonderful and really helpful and they seemed to be out and about on the site at different times of the day and evening. The toilets and showers were well kept and clean, the showers were the annoying push button variety (my pet hate) but still had unlimited hot water. We used the bar in the early evening when it wasn't too busy and it was fine. Maybe the site could do with a little shop for the basics. The beach really is a stones throw away and is a lovely walk. The chippy on the corner is a must, they are nice portions and freshly made. Definitely recommend this site and location.

We've just returned from this fantastic site and would happily return. Showers and facilities are very clean, free and hot. A good standard of cleanliness all round. Staff are first class and the area is exactly what you would want as your base. Outdoor pool crystal clear & clean and warm, good walks down the beach & up to the iron age hill fort, views are great. Did not use the club house so can not comment, but never a problem with any noise. Would recommend this site to anyone. The site seemed very secure with cctv and electronic security barrier. Overall a very nice site and good value for money, we will be visiting again.

It's all been said really, great location, level, clean, well looked after, staff are friendly and helpful. The site staff seem to patrol round the site all night in a van so the place feels safe and doesn't seem to suffer problems from kids causing trouble. There are actually two large toilet blocks, one is out of sight of the main camping area so is always deserted. Worth knowing during the busy times but to be honest the main block was ok when we stayed and the site was sixty per cent full. To save the trek into Caernarfon for shopping there is a Co Op supermarket about four miles away in Penygroes, you are only on the main A499 briefly so traffic jams aren't a problem on this route. Something which amazes me is the beach, if you turn left along the beach and walk past the hill fort there is another bay. This stretches for at least another mile and a half and when we were there it was deserted. To conclude we have used this site twice this year and will definitely be going again.

We arrived at Dinlle to be greeted by a very helpful and courteous receptionist. I thought that the site would have been very full as the Welsh Urdd Eisteddfod was on, just up the road, however, there were pitches available. The site is well maintained throughout, with a small heated swimming pool, which acts as a sun trap due to its enclosure. There is one toilet/shower block which was kept clean, (despite the best efforts of some children, whose parents were obviously too busy to care what they were up to). The block coped admirably with usage and the showers were hot, although did lack somewhere to put your shampoo etc. The clubhouse is very clean and the drinks were fairly competitive, however, despite a lovely conservatory, it did not offer any cooked meals. Some entertainment is offered in high season. The site is approximately 800 yards from the beach and does therefore become quite windy sometimes, however, this is a bonus as it keeps the cloud and rain away from the site and over the Snowdon range. The nearest supermarket is in Caernarfon approximately 6 miles away. All in all a pleasant stay which I would recommend.

An excellent site. I was brought up camping, my wife wasn't. We chose this site to give her her first camping experience. We took with us our two boys (5 and 1). We were very lucky with the weather. The forecast was awful but even though it was ridiculously cold, it stayed dry. The site is big and was very well kept. The toilet blocks / showers / family change rooms / washing up areas were all very clean. The few children's play areas near our pitch were quiet and neat but not designed for our kids age, no swings etc. They are ideal for 7+ years, they have monkey bars, balancing beams, wobbly ladders and more. There are also areas set aside for ball games. Although we didn't use it, I had a walk through the bar area. It was big and clean and welcoming. The outdoor pool was great, we spent one afternoon in it. It is heated and very warm, the way the area is set up makes it a bit of a sun trap and its well protected from the wind. I am biased, but this area of North Wales should be on everyone's must visit list. As I stood at the door to our tent I could see the sea, 200 yards away, the Lynn Peninsula to the left and Snowdonia behind us. In the the right weather you get a full view of the summit of Snowndon. This is a very good site. Other reviewers have mentioned drainage. The owners have obviously spent a lot of time and money on it and it appears to have worked but we(and others around us)struggled to find level ground without a gravelled area to pitch on. The walk to Dinas Dinlle summit (15mins) is a must and, with the age of our kids, I can recommend spending three hours on the stony beach throwing pebbles in to the sea. Would recommend the area and site.

Fantastic location. Not more than 5 minute walk to the pebble beach. Its a dead end road so you won't get much passing traffic and as such it doesn't get too busy. Walkers can enjoy a nice walk along a concrete path at the top of the beach one way or take a grass footpath the other way. The view from our tent each day was over Snowdonia! Its a way out of Canaerfon and the nearby shops are not either open for long periods during the day nor stock a great deal so you do tend to need to head out and thus a fair drive. Its a well placed site for lots of wonderful things to do in North Wales. The site itself is very flat. Pitches are a little on the stony side but this I think is for drainage which does seem good. We had typical August weather, ie heavy rain at times. The pitches are pretty generous although due to a misunderstanding with a families that obviously knew each other pitching closely to each other when we got there, we pitched too far over which meant when they went, we were too close to our new neighbours. However we apologised and ended up getting on well with them anyway! Toilet and showers were OK. Pretty clean. Wash up area OK, but cramped, and peak times the water was only luke warm. Only a minor issue. Due to its location, the site can get very windy, but it was OK while we were there and the grass banks seem to help. We never used the clubhouse. The swimming pool was lovely. Great for an adult swim session in the morning where the pool was quiet with lots of room for a proper swim. Good for the kids later as well. Barrier control to the site meant that security seemed really good. There was a good feel at the site, with everyone friendly. The site was free from litter. The central refuse area was brilliant. A huge skip and with facilities for recycling. Very clean and nice not to have to squeeze sacks into an overflowing wheelie bin. We loved it. I want to tackle Snowdon again and possibly some other mountains so we have already decided we're coming back. A gem of a site.
