Date of Visit: August 2010 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: KirstyR 9 reviews from this member

 We have just spent 2 weeks on Trawsdir and we were extremely pleased with the site. The children 7 & 9 loved the play area and the recreational field. The shop whilst overpriced was handy for emergency milk & bread!

The toilets and showers were fantastic, clean spacious and considering it was high season with 6 showers the most I had to wait in a fortnight was 30 secs!

The site is covered with cctv which added to the safe feel the campsite offered, the view of the sea was lovely and I enjoyed taking the dog onto the dog waking field watching the waves crash in the distance.

We had a fully serviced pitch which was very sheltered from some of the bracing winds the campers seemed to suffer, and very spacious however the hardstanding on the pitches we were on was very large sharp stones and very uncomfortable under foot, it was also too sloped to run the waste into the drain but I was very pleased with the position with the lovely sea views.

The local pub 2 min walk serves average food and is quite pricey for drinks but has a games room for the children and commanding views.

The chip shop attached to the pub is fabulous well worth a visit and Gary the owner is very friendly.

Barmouth is really nice, lots to see & do unfortunately it's too far to walk from the site as are most things!

The Victoria pub is worth a visit in Taly bont and a bit further on is a great waterfall walk where the children can play in the stream. The Sands Leisure complex has entertainment on several times a week which is about a 5 min drive, the drinks were dirt cheap and the acts we saw were good for a change of scene but beware the clientele is very mixed!

Trawsdir is good value for money and worth a visit.

 After staying here for a great week in june we returned again.

Fabulous site, close to the beach

Site has sister site across the road which you get a car park pass for to enable access to the beach if you don't wish to walk.

Pitches clearly marked out and very spacious.

Pub and chippy next to the site.

Kids play area- Very small but still keeps them entertained.

Toilets and showers spotless, 5 star this site !

Reviewer: Canvashols 2 reviews from this member

 We have just returned from a visit to this site. Yes, it has amazing bathrooms and a great view. However, tents are in closely packed rows right next to the A road. So, if your idea of a good campsite is a peaceful location sat outside watching the kids play in an open space this is not for you. Instead teenagers were running around the closely packed tents keeping the little ones awake.

Bathrooms are great, as is the view (beyond the road). The chippy within walking distance and take away delivery service could be useful. The shop is very limited. The kids enjoyed the playground

Barmouth is very handy for the COOP and other shops and restautants there (the restaurants by the harbour are best). Stunning surrounding mountains.

 We have just come back from Trawsdir and its a lovely and clean caravan / campsite. Situated about 2 1/2 miles outside of Barmouth. Facilities include a new modern playpark and lovely and fresh toilet block. The location is superbly sited with views of Cardigan bay, but could be a little exposed if bad weather.

The staff are very pleasant and helpful but there small shop can be a little expensive.

We would recommend this site and would be returning again.

 I stayed in this campsite August 2010 with my husband and we had the most amazing time. The facilities are second to none and the staff couldn't have been any more helpful.

The grounds and bathrooms are spotless and the facilities are brand new. The shop has everything that you could need and the pub and chip shop next to the campsite was heaven! Would defo recommend this site to any friend and would definitely love to go back there.

 We have just come back from Trawsdir Campsite, Barmouth from what was a lovely, clean campsite. Great facilities, little playpark, toilet block was very modern and clean. The only downside was that certain areas of the campsite are very exposed, and if you are in a tent be prepared to be kept awake at night by the elements.

Site is right on the coast with hills behind and I have never experienced gusts of winds like it! Moving off the campsite just slightly downhill the weather is nice and still.

Staff are pleasant enough but shop is a little expensive, i.E. £2 for a tub of marge, £8 for Wifi and they even charge to freeze your ice blocks! Lovely area though!

Reviewer: Tim.bell 2 reviews from this member

 This is a great campsite. The view from our pitch was breathtaking which more than made up for the site being slightly exposed. The facilities were immaculate, and the shop was very handy although small.

As a dog owner we particularly appreciated the dog walking field and the playground went down well with the kids. The surrounding area was pretty enough, so we will go back.

Reviewer: Ruffys 1 review from this member

 This was our 2nd ever camping trip and we are now in danger of not using another site! This site is excellent, amazing views great facilities which are always clean and I encountered no queuing. The staff were helpful and friendly.

We were in the electric hook up area and every pitch had a water point which made life easier. Our dogs were welcome and there was a specific dog walking area for them.

There is a pub and chip shop in short walking distance, you may want to leave before you are really hungry as they are not the quickest although the food is worth the wait. Already planning the next trip.

Reviewer: Luvlyclure 5 reviews from this member

 Our first impressions of this site were favourable. Great location, lovely views, amazing toilets and showers which are really spacious, clean and even have piped in music! The staff were very friendly staff and really well organised. There is even Wi-Fi available (there is a charge) and the place is covered in CCTV cameras.

We were shown to our very level pitch, with electrical hook up and asked to pitch within the marked out section which was very generous. However, we did feel very close to our neighbours and the site was absolutely packed. I don't blame the owners for maximising their land, but it did feel a little claustrophobic.

We also felt it was quite a noisy site ie. There was always noise coming from someone or something. Although it says they only cater for couples and families there were some very large 'family' groups who were noisy and lots of kids roaming around making noise well after 10pm if not later.

In general this is good site. Great on-site facilities. A short 2 minute, well lit walk to the Wayfarer Pub and very handy for Barmouth however, we won't be going back as we prefer a bit more room and a bit less noise.

Reviewer: Prestatynhotdog 2 reviews from this member

 This site is wonderful, fantastic facilities, clean, little extras that make a real difference like radio in the toilets / showers, your own tap next to your electric hook up, fantastic views, really helpful friendly staff.

Exceptional views from your camping chair we really couldn't fault this site. Barmouth is lovely everything you could need is there, and I can recommend Harlech beach it's amazing.

Be back in August if there's a pitch.

Reviewer: Adandemsmom 6 reviews from this member

 We booked last minute so were just happy to get in somewhere!

When we first arrived, we were very impressed and we were given a warm welcome

The 1st pitch we were offered was terrible. The people washing up were standing and overlooking the pitch, the bin store was directly in front, when we asked to be moved the staff attitude was quite different and we were made to feel as though it was too much trouble.

In the daytime, the site seemed quiet but by the evening it was very noisy. The park was directly by camping pitches rather than in the games field away from campers?

Anyway, we had children running around the tents having water fights, balls being kicked at the car/tent etc. Until very late at night.

Fabulous toilets but spoilt when children were playing hide and seek in there!

Plus points - good location, clean and well maintained.

Minus points - noisy, some very dodgy pitches, bins and park in the middle of pitches, no site rules imposed.

Reviewer: Baileygates 8 reviews from this member

 This was my first visit to a campsite since I was a child. Very enjoyable experience. It was a very busy bank holiday weekend and had to wait no more that 5 mins for a shower, all of which were cleaned to a high standard daily.

Very friendly and hardworking site staff. Close to beach and approximately 2 miles to Barmouth town centre which hosts a great variety of shops. The pub in the town centre and the end of the harbour called 'The Last Inn' (I think) was very cosy and welcoming during a downpour.

Definitely go back there again. Great value for money too. Great facilities if travelling with young children.

Reviewer: Phil white 3 reviews from this member

 We visited here with two other families on the last bank holiday week-end of May.

We all agreed that the facilities were fantastic. The toilets were super-clean and modern, and the kids loved the playground. As mentioned elsewhere, there is a dog-walking field that doubles as a games area. So as long as people clean up after Fido, there should be no issues! The site shop stocked a limited range of groceries, and camping / caravan accessories. But it's enough to get you by until you can get to Barmouth.

If I had to criticise anything, it would be that the pitches, although clearly marked out, are a little close to one another. And it does say in the site terms and conditions, that tents should be 6 meters apart.

Other than that, a superb site that I would recommend to anyone

 What a fantastic campsite. Stayed last year for a bank holiday weekend and couldn’t wait to return. Unfortunately they were fully booked for the date we wanted. Booked early for this year and just returned home after a great long weekend with family and friends.

The reception area is lovely, the staff are so friendly and can’t do enough to help out. On arrival at the site my 8 month old niece was due her lunch but we hadn’t even unloaded the tents so were unable to warm up her food, the lady at reception sorted that out by offering to warm it up in her microwave (what a life saver).

The toilet blocks are fantastic always very clean with plenty of cubicles and showers with music on in the background to entertain you whilst in a lovely hot shower. Pitches are a great size, we have an 8 berth tent with an extension porch which fits well, only problem were a few stones bending pegs but that’s no hardship.

A new children's play area has been installed which kept the kids busy for hours, this opens at 8am and is locked up at 9pm which seems to work really well.

A dog field is at the end of the campsite which is great to let the dogs have a run around and is dog poo free as there are poo bags free in reception and bins to dispose on the field.

A twenty minute walk away is the beautiful beach, we had a great time in the sunshine playing ball games. If you don't fancy the walk you can drive to the sister site (2 minutes) and then 2 minute walk to beach.

The town centre is buzzing with lots of friendly people and pubs which you are welcomed in. There are lots of little unique shops to browse and spend as you please. At the end of the dog walking field is a pub and a chip shop. The chip shop is great and reasonably priced with a really happy chatty owner. The pub is ok, food is average but felt it was slightly overpriced.

On a final note I can honestly say Trawsdir is the best campsite I have ever been on.

Reviewer: Didibeth 5 reviews from this member

 I visited the site in the beginning of May to see how my 7 month old daughter would take to camping and she loved it. We went with my sisters and their families and a few more friends also came. When we arrived the baby needed feeding and this was not a problem as Dawn was wonderful helping to make sure she had her food warmed up.

This campsite and the staff are amazing, it's clean, the staff are extemely helpful. We have re-booked for August this year and are really looking forward to it. Previous to this campsite me and my husband would go to campsites with no facilities but I think we may of changed our views on camping a little after visiting here.

I would definitely recommend.
