This is an excellent site particularly for same sex groups. Book in advance though if this is the case. The farmer will let you have a camp fire on the rocky area to the left of the camping field/road. This area is ideal as the elevated ground keeps noise to a mininmum towards the tents. Warning though you will be eaten alive by the midges so take deet/repellant.
The ground is tent peg friendly but pitch the tent carefully as the wind howls down through the valley. Showers and washing facilities are good as are the bunkhouse which we have used before. If you need to go to the pub its in Capel Curig and that means a taxi which is expensive. The store in Capel is expensive also so take your stuff with you. If you do have a camp fire remember to take wood with you as you will not find any on the site. Several garages on the way sell logs though. The setting is brilliant with Tryfan standing over you. This site is ideal for hikers/walkers not brilliant for kids. Marvellous. The farmer will take his dues in the morning about 9.30 am. We will be going again in August. Bring it on.

Nice little campsite, good flat ground, decent shower block and adequate toilets - and that's it. Perfect if you want a place to stay and no more.
Right at the base of Tryfan, excellent for walking in the Carneddau or Glyderau.

Nice little campsite at foot of Tryfan, basic facilities, but only £4pp/night. It makes a great base for exploring the local area on foot, with Tryfan being immediately accesible.
Plenty of parking as you cannot park your car next to tent, which helps make it quieter as car stereos aren't left blaring.

Me and a couple of pals have stayed at this location during walking weekends in 2006 and 2005 having been recommended in Trail mag. We used it as a base to climb Tryfan and the Elidir range and also the Carnedds opposite. The location is amazing and there's nothing better than watching the sun set and rise behind the glorious landscape that surrounds this campsite, apart from soothing your aching bones in the free, yes free, hot showers on the site after a good days scrambling! Would recommend this site to all and would even suggest to those who do not fancy a bit of rambling or climbing to stay here just for the scenery. Can't wait to pay it another visit soon this year!

I stayed at this site back in June when a friend and I were touring Wales by motorcycle. Considering the price and the facilities, this site represents excellent value. We had no problems with midges or the nearby road, even though we were pitched fairly close to it. (Traffic was scarce after dark). The ground seems very peaty which made for easy pitching and pegging and was very comfy under your roll mat. All in all, an excellent site for the price, and we WILL be back in '06.

Enjoyed 2 nights stay at this site with family, none being hardened campers ! It was fantastic to wake up with such great views and having the feeling of being away from it all. The A5 was close but this did not affect the enjoyment of our break. I would definitely go again, although next time I would be prepared for the midges ! The site owner was friendly and the facilities were OK
