Hi there - we have literally just returned from our first visit to this site - and it certainly won't be the last! There were five of us (two adults and three girls aged 11, 10 and 5. We arrived earlier than 2pm and were met by the very pleasant warden and owner and were NOT charged extra. I have read some of the previous reviews and cannot understand why people were moaning. The owners and wardens are perfectly pleasant and very approachable. Yes - they are strict about the rules and regulations but this was, in part, why we chose this site. We have been on other sites where rules are not enforced and who wants waking at 2am by some drunken people who can't find their own tent??
All the facilities are more than adequate - very nice in fact - and we found them to be kept very clean indeed. Toilets, showers and washing-up facilities were definitely above average. We have a dog but did not take him as we feel it is unfair to others campers who do not like them. Both units either side of us did have dogs with them and there were no problems with them - responsible owners will appreciate, and abide by, the sensible rules.
The beach - well - WOW - it is superb! Our girls (and us) absolutely loved it. Words cannot adequately describe it - you really must see it! A handy shower is placed by the gate is wash off any sand (all parents of young children will REALLY love this!) and the fob access gives you real piece of mind.
Surrounding area is gorgeous - Moelfre is very pretty and has a local shop where the owners are very friendly and like 'the English'!. Benllech is nearby but, trust me, you can't beat the beach at the site. All of Anglesey is easily accessible but we didn't move too far. It was very wet, very wild, very windly and TOTALLY wonderful on the Saturday night - the girls loved it - it's all part of the fun of camping. At night, the site is lovely and peaceful and so very dark - the stars really are wonderful. In the mornings we were woken by the delightful sounds of the sheep baa-ing.
I really cannot praise this site enough, please be objective - remember it is camping and it is Anglesey. Totally, totally enjoyable and we were very sad to have to leave.
Just returned from this site where we stayed for 5 nights. You enter the site through secure gates, leading to the reception caravan and site
I was given an A5 double sided sheet of 'rules' which applied (all of which seemed pretty common sense to us and other fellow campers) and general site information, We then had our 'pitching instructions' explained to us in detail when we were shown our pitch and were told that they didn't allow toilet tents on site.
The location of this site is great - just a couple of minutes walk to the gorgeous beach.
Kids must only play on the field where they are pitched and there isn't a play area which was fine for us. I would not recommend staying here as part of a large group, unless you don't mind being quiet after 10.30pm. The night warden patrols the site bang on 10.30pm which made us feel guilty for talking even quietly after this time!
All in all a nice break but we will not return to this site as there are too many rules for us.
Just returned from our first family camping trip and chose this site from reviews on here and general location. Was not disappointed. Turned up in what can only be the most hardy campers nightmare - gusting wind and driving rain. Was promptly shown to our pitch and had the layout and facilities explained to us. Can honestly say previous comments relating to over zealous reinforcing of rules did not apply to us. And to be truthful the rules are common sense and make for a peaceful and safe stay. I notice negative comments about the lack of facilities for dogs - as a dog free family we appreciated this. Have two children who are scared of dogs and didn't notice any on site so well done to those sensible dog owners out ;-)
As the weather calmed down we were able to explore the site. Having no recent experience of facilities I cannot comment on how they compare to others but - there was a flushable toilet with hot running water in our field - no smell and very very clean. Never had to queue for a shower, found this amazing on a busy site in August.
The beach is stunning and appears safe and clean providing hours of fun.
The island itself has a peaceful feel and driving across the island only passed a handful of cars!
There is no shop on site but Benllech is a short drive away with 3 small well stocked supermarkets. There is a small snack van which we were told opened 'weather permitting' to be honest would not expect them to open in the wind and rain we experienced but was a bonus when it opened.
Would definitely return to this site and look forward to many other positive camping experiences.
This campsite is in a fantastic location, the views are amazing and the campsite has pedestrian access directly to the beach.
The beach has plenty of sand, rock pools and a coastal path. There is a small shop selling ice creams, teas, buckets and spades etc. Also at the other end of the beach you can hire kayaks or mountain bikes. The beach has two car parks, parking here is £2.50 for the day, an important point because if you turn up early the campsite charges £2 per hour for early arrival. Also if you have day visitors, for example 2 adults and 2 children in a car the campsite charges £10.
The campsite itself has four fields plus three rally (caravan and camping clubs and other exempt camping groups) fields, some are on the side of a hill sloping down to the beach. All the pitches are well spaced around the outside edge of the fields, allowing plenty of space for kids to play in the middle.
The camp site did have a tired, messy feel about it.
The small shower/WC facility is old portacabins, the shower block only has two unisex showers and its adjacent WC block is smelly at times, despite regular cleaning.
The main shower and WC facility is in 3 modern portacabins but there are only 4 showers in the male and 4 in the female plus a separate disabled shower room. The pot washing facilities are in a small wooden shed and there was always a queue for them at peak times, there is also a new washing machine and dryer in a wooden shed.
However the fantastic location helps makes up for the below average facilities.
The couple who are this years wardens are great, very friendly and helpful, they gave us a lovely welcome and are a great asset to the site. However their boss, has no people skills, her heavy handed arbitrary approach has soured our groups experience of what could be a great site. Owner's comment : There are 4 wardens (2 female) running the site and the only time the "boss" has had to be involved on the site is when someone has requested to speak to the owner or when a rule has been broken and the "boss" has been called in to assist in a dispute when the wardens have exhaused all their diplomatic skills etc
Can only repeat what everyone says about the site clean, spacious, SAFE, views that are are spectacular, beach clean, dry clean sand even when the tide is in, staff are brill very helpful.
Lots of rules and this is why it is a good site.
Only point I was annoyed at was the extras, price for visitors per visitor even a baby, price for visitor parking a car, even though they were on site for 1 hour, price per day for wi-fi (normally free)at most sites. If these were incorporated into the price per night listing everything free I would haver accepted without complaint. DO NOT let my moan put you off. This site is a must. Forget Cornwall ANGLESEY for ever. The island is Fantastic
Our second visit in 2 years to this site, with our two teenagers and two dogs. The site is located in a great location for those who love the beach- the main reason we went back.
The campsite is organised with military precision, and pitches well spaced. Lots of rules and the wardens like to enforce them. Some will like this others will hate this. A new addition this year is the electric gates, you cannot get on or off site with a car between sunset and 8am (times for sunset put up for you!). In an emergency you have to wake the wardens up. You can walk on and off site any time if you haven't forgot the fob to open the gate, and have to walk all the way back to your tent !. Cars not allowed back on site after sunset, you have to leave car in holding car park area at site entrance.
The toilet facilities and showers are quite poor considering the cost per night (£28 for two adults two children two dogs and 1 car). Shabby portacabins,in lower field, and in upper field slightly better grade of portacabin with showers and toilets. The washing up facilities are also poor with only two sinks and all located in a wooden shed,which was full with two adults in it. To top it all they restricted the opening times of the washing up from 8am -9.30pm.
Lastly we were in the bottom of a field, when regular stenches either from the marsh land behind overpowered you. Lets say they tolerate dogs. On arrival we were told in no uncertain terms they were thinking of stopping having dogs on site as we arrived with out two bundles of joy! There is no exercise facilities on site
I would not go back to this site but if you can overlook all the issues, its location does make up for it.
We (2 adults + 2 Kids + 2 dogs) stayed for 16 nights on the 'beach' field in a large frame tent on a serviced pitch. As per other reviewers, the location is superb for a family holiday; next to a sandy beach with access to coastal walks. The pitch was spacious and fairly flat but remember to take some sturdy pegs because of the sandy soil and (almost) ever present gusty wind on Anglesey.
Facilities were acceptable. Yes, the shower / WC block was clean and tidy but could be extended further. The pot washing facilities were not up to scratch because there were only 2 sinks and hot water was limited to say the least. The wardens were helpful and the site rules were all common sense. BUT: I was on the receiving end of the owner's wrath when one of our dogs (asleep next to my chair) was not on a lead.
Other than the issues mentioned above I would recommend the site for a family holiday.
The location of this site is superb, yards from a beautiful, safe sandy beach.
We have stayed here a couple of times before but the owners seem to be becoming obsessed with rules which unfortunately spoils the atmosphere of an otherwise excellent site.
Free showers which are always clean, as are the toilets.Adequate washing up shed. Excellent security. No play area but plenty of space for children to play and beach is only yards away. Plenty of EHU pitches and 6 meter rule strictly adhered to. Large tents accepted but any larger than average are advised to check before booking or you may have to pay for an extra pitch.
Dogs are allowed but, be warned, you are not allowed to exercise them on site
The site is on a slight slope but most pitches are level enough.
The fees are reasonable but if you arrive before 2.00 you will be charged for each hour you are too early.
Recycling is encouraged and the site is well maintained and litter free.
There is a fairly basic village shop and chip shop within walking distance. Benllech is 5 minutes drive away and has a wonderful butcher, chemist, supermarket,cafe, bank,etc.
Just spent a long weekend here (thu/fri/sat nite) and had a brilliant time. They are quite particular about the rules, so we couldn't pitch right next to our friends, but it wasn't a major problem. There are no fires, but they have breeze blocks for you to put your bbq on so you don't have to worry about damaging the (well kept) grass.
It was great to have a big expanse of grass for the kids to play on and the view and beach nearby more than compensated for the slightly slopey pitches. Would definitely go again as for us (2 families with 3 kids under 4), it was the right mix of facilities vs freedom.
This site was well placed for the beach. Plenty of space you don't feel on top of each other. There are strict rules but these all seem to be common sense.
Toilet facilities were kept spotless at all times, although the site was quiet when we visited. Would wonder if there would be sufficient toilets and showers in the height of summer.
Wardens very helpful and friendly towards us.
They have just opened a butty van on site, very handy for bacon butties in the morning.
The location of this site is near perfect. The beach within a minute of the site is beautiful and there are lots of easy walks all around.
We were a party of 4 adults and 3 children visiting this site for 2 nights.
The site is fairly large but split into different fields so you don't feel crowded. There is no playground but all the tents etc. Are kept to the edges of the fields, giving plenty of playing space in the middle. The pitches are fairly level. We have a large tent so had to pay extra for a pitch with EHU as the ones without are too small.
The site was quiet and consisted mainly of families.
The toilet/shower block is at the top of the site in a portacabin. For the price we paid I have seen better. There is a portaloo at the bottom of the field, which is used constantly as people don't want to walk all the way to the top. This seemed to be cleaned in the morning but definitely needs doing 2/3 times a day. By early evening the smell was pretty bad. The dishwashing facilities also were very basic and consisted of only 2 sinks, which isn't in my opinion enough for a site this large.
I would recommend this site as I don't think you can better the location, with a few small changes it would be perfect.
Have just returned from spending 4 nights. The weather was fabulous and the whole family really enjoyed our stay (2 adults and 3 kids).
When we arrived we were shown to our pitch, there is a strict rule about the spacing between pitches. This meant there was an open feel to the site, pitches are all round the edge so the space in the middle is ideal for kids to play whist still being in view of their parents.
The view and proximity to the beach are definitely what you are paying for at this site.
The beach is 2 min walk and is lovely.
The campsite has security gates with a key fob which means you feel very secure. However the vehicle gates are locked at sunset, being 9.30pm for our visit, so if out after this time your car has to be left outside in the late arrivals area. However this does stop people driving around at night.Felt that any investment has been spent on these gates and less on facilities. The toilets and showers were very clean, in potacabins and were adequate (4 of each in both gents and ladies) but I have seen better. Also very small shower cubicles especially when trying to shower off small children! Apparently there is a family washroom but we never found it but it was hot and sunny so bathed the baby in a washing up bowl!
Reception is based in an old touring caravan and the laundry and pot washing facilities are both in wooden buildings
The owners are very keen on the rules and went through the list of rules on arrival stating several times that we would be asked to leave if the rules were not adhered to. This was slightly off putting, however most of the rules were common sense, like being quiet after 10:30 and driving at 5 mph. We were asked to turn our radio down in the middle of the afternoon when it wasn't very loud anyway.
The main drawback to this site is the lack of any shop, if needing supplies you have to get in the car and drive. There was an icecream and snack hut next to the beach which was open on the day we arrived but closed for the rest of our stay!
All in all we had a great stay and felt like we had been away for longer although some of this was due to the good weather and will probably go back some time.
What a fantastic site! This was our first time camping as a family and we were a bit apprehensive to begin with. Right from the initial contact the team on site were fantastic and made us feel really welcome from the moment we arrived. The site itself is great - idyllic views over Lligwy Bay, nice, clean facilities (could perhaps do with another sink for pot washing) and a really pleasant atmosphere.
We stayed 3 nights, but it felt longer - for all the right reasons!
I have no doubt we will be going back again before long.
Spent a week at this site and it has to be one of the best sites we have stayed on. Pitches spacious facilities spotless and the site was very well kept. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The no noise after 10.30 is adhered to which was great very peaceful nights. We def go back and would recommend this site.
Just returned from this site and was as described and better, the views out towards the sea were breath taking. I can't recommend this site enough ideal for a family holiday or short break, all the staff are very friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived right through to the moment we left.
