On a steep hillside up one side & down the other. Secure barrier in out out of site. Well organised check-in & receptionist to welcome us. Good location for visiting Conwy Llandudno etc.
Pros: Good Location, level pitches lots of water points & no probs with EHU. Price was reasonable for peak season. £22pn without Awning & 10amp EHU.
Cons: Steep access road up to & throughout site. We were in Red bay which has no views. Toilet & showers were ok but could do with updating. Elsan point grotty!. Bins were open skips dotted around the site. We didn't bother with the clubhouse it was miles away so cannot comment on that only to say it looked a little tired. We couldn't let our 11yr old go to the playground as it was just too far away from our caravan & as the site was so big & like a maze I'm not sure he would have found his way back!
A lot of earthmoving machinery working all day, everyday, while we were there creating mud & dust constantly & I was disappointed no-one told us this was going on as we only booked the week before.
Overall my advice is don't stay on Red or Purple zones if you want a view of any kind other than hedges.
We have been to this site in previous years & have never been disappointed.
The toilet block was kept remarkably clean even though the weather was not as favourable as we had hope for, so a lot of muddy feet can make a terrible mess. However, they really did a good job. When one toilet block is being cleaned, you will always find another one near by to use.
The club house & children's play area appeared to be a bit manic, and not the kind of place I would particularly visit again. Quite a few children seemed over the required age and height limit and there didn't appear to be many adults or parents there to supervise. Anyway, other than that there was a DVD on and my little ones were delighted to be able to get a little 'fix' of tv for half an hour.
I thought this was a good family site & would we use it again?.YES! Hopefully we will get the sunshine next time.
We chose this site as it seemed the best choice to visit Llandudno and had the facilities we needed ie ehu, good pitch sizes and child and dog friendly. I was a bit put off by the extensive booking procedure which we did over the phone. This involved answering questions such as the colour of the dog and the gender of the baby - I thought this was strange and over the top but my sister felt comfortable with it as it clearly had something to do with security.
We found the park very easily and checked in which was straightforward enough. We were booked in in the Red area, squashed in amongst mainly caravans and large tents. We wouldn't have paid much mind to this except just around the corner in the Blue areas there were pitches aplenty. I would have liked to have chosen my own pitch or would of liked to have been asked if we would like a quiet spot or not.
We paid in the region of £22.00 for three adults, one child, one dog, one car, day tent and ehu which we thought was very good.
Like others have pointed out the showers could do with having more than one hook or a shelf. I was very surprised that there was no baby changing facilities in the Red shower block I do not know if there are appropriate facilities elsewhere on the site.
In part, a site which still has some improvements to make, a little bit of attention to detail maybe but overall a pleasant site and we will book in again mindful to ask for a pitch which best suits us.
We stayed here as a party of three tents & a caravan.
The site is set in beautiful surroundings & the pitches are of adequate size for tent & car. The electrify hook up, for us, proved invaluable.
The only downside on the pitch was the ground was rockhard so you need strong steel pegs.
The toilet block was clean & tidy with adequate hot water.
As there there was eight of us ( & a dog ) in our group, we made our own entertainment with barbecues etc, so we did not use the clubhouse or playground so I cannot comment on those facilities.
As the weather was in our favour, some of our group took the the dog for walks (not me) & were amazed at the views & scenery.
We did our shopping at Tescos in Conway which was just a few miles away.
ARRIVAL - Easy to find and hard to miss the wide steep entrance road. Checking in at reception was quick and easy with the friendly staff who handed over a map with brief directions to our pitch, along with the necessary code for the gate. Within 10 minutes of arriving we were at the pitch ready to set up.
PITCH - We had a non-electric pitch which was only just big enough for our 6 man dome tent, but we were in what can only be described as a small wooded glade with only two other neighbours which more than made up for the tight space. Later we had a walk around the vast site and noticed that the tents on EHU pitches seemed to have a lot more room, but they also had more neighbours. As previous reviewers have mentioned, you wouldn't know you were on such a large site as each area only has about 20 or so pitches (apart from our little cosy nook of course). Ground was a little stony about a couple of inches under the grass and ended up with some bent tent pegs, but managed in the end.
FACILITIES - We were in one of the Green areas with a toilet block close at hand along with dish washing area and drying room (just a small hot room with hooks on the wall for any wet towels or clothing to dry out). The road to the toilets had some welcome lighting for those early hours trips. Toilets appeared to have been cleaned at least a couple of times during the day.
Showers were in a larger block (with more toilets) past the skip (for your bin bag supplied at reception), and through some caravans, a little bit of a trek but not unbearable. Never had to queue for the showers, but found the water temperature dropped from fairly warm at 9am to barely warm at 10am. Maybe the early risers got all the hot water! Pressing the button every few seconds wasn't too much of a problem. There were also washbasins in three-sided cubicles affording some privacy if you didn't fancy a shower.
Outside the building was a small chest freezer to re-freeze your cold blocks at any time day or night free of charge.
AROUND THE SITE - The site has many roads and footpaths to explore including areas where it's safe to let your dog off the lead.
THE CLUB - The bar was a surprise as rather than the cheesy campsite club full of misbehaving kids and even more misbehaving parents this one was more like a local pub. The drinks prices were fairly reasonable, and there was a good range of draught beers and bottled drinks. The draught Theakstons was extremely well kept and tasty. We never do clubs normally on holiday, but this was such a nice place with friendly staff that we spent three of our four nights there, including the Wednesday quiz night. I think they also do some entertainment on a weekend, but were there during the week. Plenty of undercover seating outside if you have the dog with you. There is a family area for children under 14, and an indoor play area attached.
LOCATION - The location is ideal for visiting both inland and coast with Trefriw, Llanrwst, and Betws-y-Coed only a short drive away. Going the other way you are two minutes drive from historic Conwy (the walk on the walls can be as exciting as any theme park roller coaster), and a few minutes more from the beautiful, uncrowded beach of Penmaenmawr with it's excellent cafe, kids paddling pool (with waterfall) and of course those all important public toilets. The kids will also love the artwork in and around the tunnel under the railway. So many other wonderful places in the area and I could spend all day talking about them.
SUMMARY - It's a big site, but doesn't feel like it, with level pitches throughout (from what we saw). Ideal for families and couples alike. No on-site shop, but excellent convenience store open until 9pm in the village, along with a fish and chip shop (not the best, but friendly and convenient if you don't feel like cooking).
The site charge per tent, and don't seem to discriminate against large tents, we paid just short of £18 per night for a largish tent with 2 adults, a 17 year old, a 14 year old and a dog. That's value for money.
We would recommend the site and although we like to explore different parts of the country we may well go back again next year.
We arrived as a large party of 20 people during the half term/bank holiday week and the site was extremely busy. The pitches we were allocated were all very spacious with plenty of parking for the cars and a trailer. We were all in what was known as the 'blue' area where the ground was rocky and hard,as seemed the rest of the site, so a supply of steel pegs would be a good idea to take with you. Unfortunately for such a large site there was no campsite shop for the essentials, so it was necessary to keep nipping down the road to either the village shop (about 1 mile) or into Conway (about 2 miles)to keep stocked up.
The many shower and toilet block facilities were kept very clean and tidy despite the large number of visitors, although sometimes the water wasn't as hot as you might like.
The location, and the views from the site, are spectacular, looking over to Snowdonia and the surrounding countryside and coastline. For dog owners there are a multitude of lovely walks from every aspect of the site. We took ours down to the river and along the lanes and footpaths and back around to the site which was about 3 miles in total of fairly easy walking and breathtaking scenery.
We spent two nights there and barbequed both nights, so we didn't use the site clubhouse facilities, but the clubhouse did seem very popular.
From the site you are able to visit many of North Wales' resorts and attractions within a short distance, so if you have children they will never become bored!
We really enjoyed our stay, as did the rest of our party, and we would definitely return again.
Stayed here the week after the children had gone back to school, so the site was very quiet. The site is quite nice, with plenty of showers and toilets etc. No-one on reception told us anything about the site, we only found out after chatting to other regular campers.
The club was shut, so we had to nip down to the town centre for a drink. There was no shop, another trip to the town centre. If this wasn't bad enough, the smell on the site was disgusting. Every now and again a smell of putrid fish would waft over. No-one seemed to know where the smell was coming from, but it was suspected that it was coming from the skips which were used for rubbish. They were full to the brim.
There is some nice scenery, but we could only see a tiny bit from our tent on 'blue'.
The weather was dreadful and rained every single day, so that didn't help. The regular campers said they had never known it smell so bad and was a lovely site.
I've been going to Conwy Touring Park since it was called Bwlch Mawr and was still a working farm!
The site is not one, large camping field. It comprises of lots of smaller areas holding about a dozen units, each surrounded by mature trees. You can visit here several times a year (we do) and you never think you're visiting the same place as each area has different views.
The toilet blocks are spotlessly clean, there are drying rooms for wet kit, and at the end of the shower blocks are rows of big sinks for campers to wash up. For people without electric fridges or cool boxes, there are freezers dotted about around the site so you can freeze your blue ice blocks for your cool bag.
Site facilities include an indoor adventure play area for the kids, an outdoor adventure area too, dog walking paths through woodland, a launderette and a pub/restaurant called the Swallow's Nest.
Entrance to the site is through a security barrier (you get a code for the key pad when you sign in) and there are security officers present on site throughout the day and evening.
You can use this as a base for visiting Snowdonia, and you only need to cross the bridge out of Conwy to get to Llandudno- just a short drive, or you can walk/cycle along the new coastal footpath, a traffic free route.
The town of Conwy has a 13th century castle, excellent quality shops, a SPAR supermarket, and good places to eat.
Just had a long weekend at Conwy touring park, it was a base really as we were visiting the Llandudno Extravaganza Transport Festival.
The park was ok but not up to the standards we are used to having stayed at 2 Caravan club Sites already this year.
We were in the Purple area so I believe we had the best showers, these were ok and clean but there were only 2 showers and these were limited on space. There is a bench to put your clothes etc but nowhere to put shampoo etc whilst showering other than the floor. (There is no soap at all in the toilets either.)
We did have plenty of space on our pitch and as the park is divided into lots of areas it was nice and quiet. Fresh water very close by although nowhere really to empty waste water, we emptied in a grid by the toilets, another guest told us they were instructed to empty under a hedge - not really a good idea surely.
Took us a long time to get through on the telephone, left a message but received no reply, once we did get through held on the phone whilst the receptionist completed 2 check ins on site, yes we would hear that they were doing card transactions.
We didn't use any of the other facilities so cannot really comment.
We had a fabulous time at this site, don't be put off by the entrance. It was a massive site, plenty of space although I don't think I would like to be there at busy times
Staff were very helpful, it was reasonably priced, very good facilities and plenty of them which is unusual. Showers were hot but as said in other reviews you have to keep pressing the button every 10 seconds or so, which isn't really a problem.
Visited this site over the Easter period for a week and stayed on the red pitches. The site is lovely with a good layout for kids as most pitches are in little cul de sacs. Loads of lovely walks and great for dogs.
Booking in system good and staff very ameniable especially for visiting family. Two excellent play areas one for toddlers and one for older children with area's surrounding the play area's for football games. Site is in a good situation to see all of North Wales.
Only downside are the shower facilities. The shower has no divide to stop all your gear getting wet which also makes it a nightmare when you are trying to shower a 2 year old who is turning blue with the cold. However we checked every toilet block on the site and discovered that Purple has this divide with a bench where you can put your gear and a dressed 2 year old on whilst you finish getting dressed yourself.
The site also has a pub and indoor play area for children but the opening times are inconsistent and irregular so never got the chance to use it. I would visit the site again but would request to be on the purple pitches for the showers.
We have visited Conwy Touring Park on several occasions and have had a great time there, the end of season firework display is a must, and have been to this for the last 3 years.
The pub is a walk down hill which is great in the evening when the kids can take their torches, the pub itself is a lovely little pub with a play room for the kids, and a tv dvd room, which the kids loved.
The pitches fitted my vango diablo 900 and 2 cars with no problem, so are of a good size.
The toilets are ok, what you would expect nothing special.
Having already know Conwy quite well as an area, I know there are several nice places to visit, including the butterfly house in conwy, also llandudno, and the beaches there are only 10 minutes away
The only gripe I had is that last time I went we were pitched opposite a large party who were blatantly ignorant to families with children and stayed up shouting and swearing and playing music until the early hours, and no one patrolled the area to make sure this kind of thing was not happening.
Definitely wont let this spoil it though and would visit again.
This was our first visit to this site, our friends had recommended it so we thought we would give it a try, yes it was late in the year but it was the sites 'End of Season Firework Display'
We found the site absolutely great, toilets spotless all the time, showers great but as has been said before - nowhere to hang clothes so everything gets wet! We pitched in the Blue section, nice and flat but stoney just under the soil, so will take rockpegs next time. The site is very hilly, its a trek to get to the pub/restaurant and back so didn't bother.
All in all a great experience for us so will definitely be going back this year and its only 50 minutes away. Also I highly recommend the fireworks they were FANTASTIC! Went on for ages and really loud echoing through the hills,a great show.
My wife and I have visited Conwy Touring Park on several occasions now and enjoyed the site very much. Its only an hour from home but seems a million miles away, the area is generally very peaceful and so to the site.
We visited on the end of August Bank Holiday and considering the children were off school and a bank holiday the site was well controlled.
We always feel very secure on this site, it has a great reception and barrier control to the site with your own unique pass code.
The site, well more of a mountain side, is huge I can believe the number above saying it holds 400 pitches and these are spread about on probably 20 separate fields, each field then having its own toilet / shower block, dish wash facilities, rubbish collection etc, so basically plenty of room to move.
The tent pitches are numbered in their zones and reasonably well kept, generally pretty level but can be rather stony or rooty just under the soil level, can be a pain when you're just just trying to put the last peg in and you hit 'rock', grrrr
The site has a bar, restaurant and children's play room, we didn't use them on this break but did so last year.
The area has a lot of great places, not just Conway for the castle and Marina but also; Llandudno, Betws-y-Coed, Porthmadog
We love this site as a quick get-away weekender, but could easily be a base for a week long stay.
Would love it more if the tent pitches zones were split into say, Family, Adult only and mixed, as the kids running around your tent with footballs does become a little testing after a while, but maybe that's more a parental issue.
Having read the reviews prior to booking, couldn't wait to arrive at this site, however, when we arrived we were slightly disappointed. The Reception area was like visiting a security airport booth, with toughened glass and wire perimeter fencing and a security code activated barriers that never seemed to work correctly. This site also advertises gas refills under it's site facilities, however, it is located at Llandudno junction, which is six miles away. We were allocated to the 'Red' section, the pitches were as previous reviews, very large and well maintained. The shower blocks however, left a lot to be desired. We found them exceptionally basic, not even having hand soap, and on more than one occasion not particularly clean. The shower facilities were far from practical, there was one hook for everything and no drop down seat or screen / space to separate wet area from dry, everything that went into the shower area came out wet. Not even guttering on the shower blocks, if it rains you need to run the gauntlet to get in, without getting soaked. Bar and play area were OK, but it was an exceptionally long adventure to find it and get there, and you wouldn't want to walk back from it on a dark night, as there was no lighting. It would be an idea to take your own bin, as the camp doesn't appear to have any, just a skip which isn't on the map. Bins at the washing up point would ensure that some individuals didn't leave the remnants of their meals for the next person in the sink. North Wales area is fantastic area to visit, the site is ideally located for Conwy, but not somewhere I would recommend if you have been to other campsites with facilities close to home comforts, as this is like going back 20 years.
