Reviewer: Dkhilton 4 reviews from this member

 We found this an excellent site. Our first time here and been camping for years. We had a large tent, dog and our very young daughter with us. The owners are very helpful and the site is kept spotless, including the showers and toilets. It was very windy when we were there, but we enjoyed it immensely. The location is perfect for anything in North Wales and with Abergele being so close, if You forget anything, You can walk into town or pick it up on Your way out or back. We will return. Many times I feel. Thank You

 Just returned from a fabulous 4 days at this fantastic site easy to find local amenities are all close by and tesco is a godsend for those essentials, just a 5 min walk away. The site owners are the most welcoming people I've ever met so laid back and always had time for a chat.

It was a very busy bank holiday weekend so naturally the toilets were not always sparkling but were cleaned regularly and they tried to keep on top of them . The children were always happy to feed the pigmy goats and pigs and the chickens were running round free.

The site was in a great location, we could see the sea from our tent and a great view of the castle. It was a peaceful quiet site. We walked to the beach which took us about 40 mins. About a five min drive into towyn/rhyl /colwyn bay. All in all a great little site and will return asap!

 Just got back from a wonderful weekend at this campsite. We arrived on Saturday and was given options of where we could set up, picked our spot and set up.

The site was very well looked after with only a small complaint that the grass is kept too long. Toilets and showers were spotless and kept that way all during our stay.

The village is only a few minutes walk away with a Tesco's practically on the doorstep. They don't have a children's playground but they do have goats, pigs and 2 wallabies on site.

A really good campsite in a good location to explore the surrounding areas, would definitely go back again.

 Excellent site in a very lovely area close to all the main north Wales resorts. The toilet block and showers are kept spotless by the owners. They have some goats and hens rabbits and this visit they had two young wallabies. This was are fifth visit and we will more than likely be there again. If you want a noisy site then don't bother as this is a quiet friendly site.

Reviewer: Whacker 16 reviews from this member

 The site was full all week-end. Owners are a very nice couple.

The site was looking tired, probably due to being the end of the summer holidays, the grass was fairly long. The facilities are basic and could probably do with more frequent cleaning when the site is full. The cleaning is done by an outside contractor who only visits at 4pm every day and doesn't visit on sundays, it poured down the week-end we were there so the facilities were a bit messy.

Could also do with a refuse area in the middle of the site for the ease of people at the top of the site.

Should mention that there is a fantastic cycle path on the foreshore that goes for miles, we cycled to Prestatyn and Rhos on sea.

We did enjoy our stay at Manorafan and would not hesitate staying again

 When we arrived it wasn't at first quite clear where the entrance was as we found two ways into the site whilst staying there as there was no clear sign up. You go through another smaller not as well maintained camp site before reaching this one. Booking in was really simple and straight forward and the owner was lovely and made us feel really welcome. She showed us round and let us chose our own pitch with electric hook up. Next to the main house the owner has set up recycling bins and its very organised and clean. There are pygmy goats and chickens as well which my 3 yr old loved whilst we there. The toilets and showers were basic but were always clean. There are two washing up areas, one outside and one inside. The views are lovely from the site although can be windy due to location. The site is well maintained and there was no noise and everyone was very courteous whilst we were there. There isn't much for children to do but the site is child friendly so don't let that put you off.

You are only 15 mins from Llandudno and welsh mountain zoo. We were in a great location for day trips out. In town which is 2 mins away there is a tesco and cafes and plenty of shops.

The only thing I would change would be to put a sign up at the entrance on the main road apart from that we had a wonderful stay and will most definitely go back

 The site was lovely (I had phoned earlier and was told it was full but the owners kindly phoned back later that day to say they could fit us in). We found the facilities to be very clean and the welcome from the owners very friendly.

Our pitch was nicely flat but unfortunately, because the site was quite busy, some people arrived shortly after us and pitched uncomfortably close.

The location of the site was very handy for shops/takeaways but we were a bit disappointed with the area as whole - found Abergele to be scruffy and tacky and I wish we'd pushed on further to somewhere a little more quiet and remote.

Unfortunately we found the site quite noisy/rowdy and left early but I wouldn't like to mark it down too harshly because of this as it sounds from reading other reviews as though we had a one-off bad experience. I guess it only takes one bad neighbour to spoil what would have been a lovely visit.

 Just returned after spending a week on site. What a great site the owners are friendly and most helpful. The toilet block was always clean and plenty of hot water. Whilst we were there, there were a few rowdy children around but they were only there for a few days. There is a tesco a few min away and opposite there is a great cafe. For dog owners there was a great dog walk up the lane to wards a ruined castle. The site is right next to a golf coure for the golfing campers. We visited Conway and Caernarvon both historic places. This is a first class site I had no complaint about the site and would give it 5 stars I will be returning there next year

Reviewer: MOZZERPAT 3 reviews from this member

 Had a very pleasant visit

The site was clean and tidy

With easy access close enough to town so you can walk to the shops (a very handy tesco) but far enough away to be peaceful

Dispite being quite busy at the weekend when there were a lot of tents it was still very quiet at night

The only downside if i was to get picky is there is only one fresh water tap and grey waste has to be emptied with the elsan

All in all a nice site in a nice position run by nice people will definately be returning

 Spent a week at this great little campsite. We were made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived and were shown to our pitch. The showers and toilets were clean and showers hot, and although there were only two showers there never seemed to be anyone waiting. Great sea views, great views of the castle, which is fantastic and only a ten minute walk away, can`t believe it was only built in 1819.

Plenty of shops nearby. Handy for all the North Wales resorts. We saw the Red Arrows in Rhyl. I would highly recommend this site, it is also the cheapest site we have ever stayed on, o nly £126 for the week 2 adults, 2 kids, dog and ehu. We'll definitely be back.

Reviewer: Kaz02 5 reviews from this member

 Just got back from touring wales and this was the first site we stayed on. On entering the site was at first put off with the shabby looking campsite until we realised that our campsite was further up the lane and was very clean and smart looking.

The owners where very friendly and showed us our pitch which was level and looked okay. The only downside was unfortunately for us it was also next to the path for the toilets and showers, hasten to add it was very busy, plus all the children were constantly running up and down so was a bit off putting because we just wanted to chill out, I hasten to add this was not the owners fault.

The site was fantastic for a base, we just hopped on a bus and visit all surrounding areas i.e llandudno, rhyl,etc, also great for a tesco was literally 5 mins walk. Toilet and shower facilities excellent. All in all a good campsite.

 We have returned home after a very enjoyable stay at 'Manorafon'. The previous reviews have already stated how good this site is, and we have to agree with them. Both Iola and Richard do their very best to make your stay a pleasant one.

Only a short walk away is the cafe opposite Tesco, which serves a good varied menu to suit all the family, with very friendly staff.

Gwrych Castle which is seen from the site, is well worth the short walk for a closer look. It is a very large building with much to admire, and home to plenty of birds including the buzzards that I watched on several occasions.

This site is definitely worth considering if you are planning to visit North wales, as it is central to most popular attractions and very good value for money!

Overall a 5* site.

 Well have just got back from a 5 day stay here and loved every minute!

I have never been camping before but my other half has and we decided to give it a go this year, with our little boy and our dogs.

The site is in a lovely setting, clean, owners very friendly and all on site people where very friendly, even though it was full the owners let us stay an extra night no problem.

The site is ideally located for surrounding areas, tesco 5minute walk and woodland walks for dogs etc and the haunted castle, which we spent hours looking around at.

The site is clean as are the facilities, never had to queue for showers once, and the site isnt what id call 'chavvy' it was all families, couples etc and it is quiet after 9.30ish.

I cant wait to go again, we had 4 nights there, two adults one child and two dogs for total of £52!

Also milkman comes round and as mentioned in other reviews, ice cream van does, there is a very safe, child friendly feel to the site and ducks, chickens, goats etc in the owners grounds which they children can feed safely.

All in all a fantastic site, very good value and very peaceful setting.

 Great little site and on arrival were greeted by Richard who gave us a choice of a number of pitches with EHU for just £13 a night really good value. toilet and shower facilities modern and always clean only 2 showers but never saw a queue.

Tescos only a five minute walk away for provisions. Very quiet site at night which is kept spotlessly clean, goats and sheep for the children, All in all recommended

Reviewer: Thegodfather 3 reviews from this member

 We arrived at this site after a tortuous journey along the A55 and therefore we were not in the best of moods when we arrived. I reported to the site office to pay the fees for the weekend and was told 'oh just pay when you are ready'. This summed up the attitude of the owners, laid back and friendly.

We pitched on the enormous pitch and then went into Abergele for some very nice fish and chips. We were away with friends so once we got the kids to bed we sat outside having a little drinkie, the stars were shining above and out to sea it was possible to see the lights from several ships and gas platforms.

When we woke up the next morning we were able to appreciate the spectacular setting. In front of us a fine sea view, to the rear Gwyrch Castle nestling in the wooded hills. To me this sums up what camping should be about, the opportunity to to be at one with nature.

The facilities were fine for what we needed, good showers and a flat pitch with ehu. There was no shop but it is only a five minute walk to a good size Tesco so this was not a problem. It was only a further two minutes into the Abergele and this provided everything you may need by way of shops, pubs, restaurants and take aways.

I would highly recommend this site and we will be back.
