Reviewer: Poet  (4)
Date of Visit: August 2010
Unit: Tent
Stayed here from 6th-8th August.
The site is immaculate and the owners work really hard to keep it that way. You often see somebody cleaning. The toilet/shower block is closed every day btwn 11am-12noon while it gets a thorough clean but the loos seem to be cleaned constantly.
The showers are a bit of a pain because you have to press a button every 10 seconds to keep them switched on but they're included in the price and the water was always warm so not a huge problem. Just a bit longer between presses would be good :0)
It's in a brilliant spot, right next to a river and a little walk along the river bank from the camp site takes you to the white water rafting centre where you can sit in the cafe and watch the rafts and kyaks go past.
Pitches are spacious and the EHU is really good, no problems with tripping supply if you plug several items in.
There is a little shop open til late and even when it's closed they will serve you if you ring their doorbell.
It's in a great location too, we went on the little train by Bala lake and there's a great organic farm not too far away called 'Rhug Estate' on the A5 where you can buy delicious organic Welsh meat, including bison!
We requested a pitch near the showers/loos as I can't walk too far, but I was woken up very late and very early by people who seem to forget that tents don't have walls! Not the owners fault though as there are plenty of notices to remind people to be quiet after 11pm!
There is one of those electric bug zappers outside the facilities which is quite noisy if you're a light sleeper (but then again we did ask to be right outside) and there is some road noise.
All in all, this is a great site and we would definitely recommend it.

Great little site, well run by the owners, spotlessly clean showers & toilets, right in the country! well done to the owner & his wife.
Everything done to ensure you & your belongings are safe & sound,near the white water rafting centre (but no yobs or rowdy people admitted) Chemical toilets & drinking water & dish washing in each field, so you only go to the main block for a shower, shave etc. No ball games allowed in the tenting fields, so I guess this qualifies as a 'grown up' site. But, well behaved children are encouraged.
Small shop selling the basics (and some not so basic) Snowden,Bettws Y Coed and Llangollen all within an hours drive

As other reviews state immaculately clean, beautifully kept and smashing couple running it, 'basic' provisions available at the office shop (sauces, pop, meat, milk, disposable bbqs, icecreams, pasta, b/beans etc. Wifi connection, tv cable extensions available.
River running at the side where you can watch white water rafters and canoeists. Rules and regs are in place to ensure the pleasure of all and to help with conservation of natural resources.
If your unsure of reversing your van help is on hand or your allowed to entertain everyone by having a go yourself! (you'll only get laughed 'with' not 'at'! Took me four attempts and there wasn't another van within 4 pitches either way!)
Town of Bala is only minutes away with shops and fuel station takeaways and pubs many other villages / towns and places of interest within easy driving distance or as we did you can just relax and enjoy the site itself we will be returning to this site in the future.
The only concern would be for small children as there is a fast running river adjacent to the site and whilst most of the site is fenced there is one open section with seating which does allow open access to the river bank.

We visited at the beginning of June and as per usual there is not one single thing we can complain about. We have three children and as far as we are concerned this site is perfect. The site is absolutely immaculate, the pitches are well maintained and we have eaten in restaurants that are not as clean as the shower block here! If every campsite was like this I am sure more people would enjoy camping. It is an absolute joy to be able to visit a campsite safe in the knowledge there will be no rowdy drunks disturbing your sleep. Pete and Jean the owners have set a high standard and they work hard to maintain it, long may it continue. We will of course return.

Stunning location, short safe walk to the White Water rafting centre along the river bank. You can walk along the river side crossing little bridges along the way, Great to watch the people coming past on the rafts.
The site is a credit to the owners. Well planned and spotlessly clean. The river flows alongside the site the views are spectacular. They have both camping and caravan facilities, pitches that are level and well spaced.
We were sorry to leave but we will return as we have discovered a gem!

Had a great weekend at Tyn Cornel, what a top site.
Toilets where very clean, pot washing area supplied with scrubbers and washing up liquid also very clean.
Bala town is 5 mins down the road, good fish n chip shop,kebab shop, there is also a Chinese but didn't try it.
I would recommend this site to anyone looking for a quiet weekend.
