Headed here for one night after terrible weather put paid to our plans to camp in the mountains. Seemed like a friendly, well-run site with good facilities, but pricey (£18. 50 for a tent for one night).
The lady who took us to our pitch was very helpful in finding us somewhere sheltered on what was forecast to be a wet and windy night. Showers and toilets were modern and clean. Hot water on tap. It was a bit annoying to have to pay 40p for a shower when site fees were already high.
I wasn't with my son this time, but I'm sure he would have loved the play area. This was closed at night, but I did notice it was still roped off when we left in the morning, near to 10am. I thought this was a bit late. There's a swimming pool on site, which we didn't get to visit as the lady was closing it just after we arrived, around 6pm. I would have thought this would be a popular time to have a swim, after you've got back from a day out.
Anglesey is a beautiful place to visit, and this site is on the way down to Newborough, where this a fantastic beach, views over the Menai Strait to Snowdonia and walks out to a semi-island.

Found this gem on the camp search engine and what a find. If you want peace and quiet this is the place for you. We were met at reception and shown all of the facilities the people couldn't be more helpful.
The facilities are spotless the showers nice and hot
Everything was immaculate.
Nice play park for the kids on the tent side. Great paddock for the dogs all enclosed which was a bonus.
Stunning scenery from both sides of the campsite snowdon/rolling fields of anglesey. All in all deserving of the 5 stars. And if you are partial to chinese food The jade village in menai bridge is probably the best chinese I have ever had and ive been going there a few years its a restaurant and take away.

This Is a Beautiful well established family run CC park.
With all the amenities on site for a lovely stay.
Mainly family orientated Small shop for groceries, leaflets etc. Swimming pool play area. Very clean immaculate well kept toilets /showers washing machines dryers.
All camping /tenting pitchs spacious and the grass Is well cut and lawned. Also there Is a field for Caravans too. The view from the front of the site Is spectacular looking across the Menai straits to the Snowdonia range. And the rear view of the rolling hills and Vista. This site Is very peaceful. Attracting birds to visit with a lovely birdsong. I stayed here whilst backpacking It was so nice I did not want to leave. Nearby, Newborough has a lovely beach and Forest for walks.
Also walks along the Menai straits are within walking distance down the lanes.
This Is a credit to George, Dith and Mark. Who are very helpful. And insure everybody has a welcome stay.
I would highly recommend this site.

The weather did what wales does best. Everything! How ever wet it got the site stayed well drained and the facilities clean, even though it was almost full. We never had to wait for a shower, and the coin operated hair dryer is a luxury!
The little hedges that they are growing to divide up the field are great, just starting to fill out to give a sense of individual space to what are already generous pitches.
I don't use electric hook up personally, but they seem to have a lot of pitches that cater for it. Keeping cars separate from the tents, yet still leaving access to unload or pack away is super, sitting out by the tent is so much nicer without cars inbetween!
The children have loads of space to run about near your pitch and there's a nice playground with swings etc as well.
When the weather did break the magnificent view of the Snowdon range was great to wake up to! The kids even got to use the little outdoor swimming pool a couple of times.
I would heartily recommend this site to families with young children. Anglesey has some of the nicest beaches and Fron makes a good base to explore from.

We arrived and were shown to a pitch on quite a slope, asked if we could pitch on more level ground, but were told this was not possible, they were for campers over the BH weekend. Although the website states the caravan and tent fields are separate, the owner snapped that he had to put tents in there over the BH, it's business.
I was directed to some blocks to prop up the front of the caravan and promptly stood in dog poo, which was near the bin area.
Our son was excited about the pool, he went in, but it was extremely cold. As it is unheated it is very cold. Other children went in, but were back out in minutes.
I'm amazed that this site is showing 5 stars. The shower blocks are very dated. Some shower cubicles have a saloon type door, so anyone can see over or under the door.
We advised the owners we were leaving, as it did not have the facilities we would expect from a 5 star site. The owner was very off hand and arrogant. However, his parents were true business people, accepting that we wished to leave and insisting that he should reimburse our monies less the night we had stayed.
We moved to a lovely site, which we will stay at whenever we are in Anglesey.
If you are looking for a site with basic facilities this may suit you. The previous reviews about the cold pool are spot on, the addition of a cover has not resolved this problem.

What an absolute gem of a site this is! A fantastic base to explore the island of Anglesey. Visited for 5 nights over the Easter Holidays (2 adults, 2 children).
Staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming, right through from the booking process up until the day we left.
Both the camping and caravanning field are immaculately kept and lovely and quiet. The camping field boasts beautiful views of Snowdonia, whilst the caravan field benefits from rolling countryside and superb sunsets (weather permitting of course)!
There is a children's adventure playground with climbing frame, slide and swings adjacent to the camping field which was safe enough to let our children (aged 6 and 3) go and play on their own and all children respected the rule of leaving the playground at dusk. The swimming pool was not open when we were there as it was too early in the season.
There are two toilet and shower blocks, which although a little dated, were immaculately clean at all times. The ladies has 3 shower cubicles and there is a separate unisex shower round the back for parents who need to take children in with them. The water was lovely and warm (2x20p for 6 minutes, which was ample time to shower myself and my little boy). There is a laundry and dish washing room to the side of the farmhouse, although we didn't use these facilities.
The on site shop sells milk, bread, bacon, eggs, basic groceries and household items etc and is open for a couple of hours in the morning from about 8am and then again late afternoon. Next to this is a little tourist information room with leaflets on attractions in the area. Fortunately, we were blessed with fantastic weather on all but one of the days of our stay, so we just headed out to the many beautiful beaches in the area. We did take a ride out to South Stack lighthouse and RSPB Seabird Centre at Holyhead one night to watch the sunset and this looked like it would have been a fantastic place to visit during the day. Within a few minutes drive of the campsite are many attractions, including Anglesey Sea Zoo, Foel Farm Park, Anglesey Riding Centre, Plas Newydd Country House and Anglesey Model Village. We actually found the beaches on the West Coast of Anglesey to be the nicest. Llanddwyn Bay (approx 10 mins drive from the campsite) is a lovely blue flag beach, with an ample car park, picnic benches and toilet facilities. There are also lots of woodland trails around here. We explored more coves and beaches further up this coast during our stay, all of which were superb.
With regards to places to eat, there is a great little Indian Takeaway in Brynsiencyn village and try the Groeslon Hotel on the corner for a warm, friendly welcome and delicious home cooked food at reasonable prices. The ship over at Red Wharf Bay is good too, but it does get very busy so it's probably advisable to book in advance.
So to summarise, if you want a peaceful holiday in a beautiful location, then this is definitely the place for you. As the owners website clearly states, this is not a site for teenagers, or for those wanting on site bars, clubs and non stop entertainment. However, if you are a family with young children or a couple, then you'd be very hard pressed to beat it. Would I recommend Fron to family and friends? Absolutely 100%. Will we be returning? You bet we will!
