Date of Visit: August 2007 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Raljex 1 review from this member

 Spent August bank holiday on this site in a tent. The site is set in lovely scenery and has a very relaxed and quiet atmosphere both during the day and in the evening.
On arrival Carol (site owner) was happy to recommend pitches and advice re local walks in the area. Toilet block and showers were basic but spotlessly clean. The showers run on a timer which requires 10p pieces, although they can sort you out with change on site. 50p will get you an un-rushed shower although those who like to languish may need to shove a few more coins in the meter! 
There is also a small pool room on the site, although during the stay it was tricky to get in for a game as it was taken over by small kids! (not a criticism!)
There is a washing up room, again spotlessly clean with a freezer for chilling ice blocks and various spare utensils in case you have forgotten anything.
A wonderful stay in a peaceful and chilled out site. Will certainly visit again.

 Stayed here for 3 nights for some walking in Snowdonia. Its a lovely site, quiet, with superb views. We were made very welcome by the owners and offered a choice of pitches.
 
Its reasonably convenient to get into the mountains. Pen-y-pas is about 25 mins drive if you want to go up Snowdon from that side. Betws-y-coed is about 5 mins drive with plenty of shops, pubs etc. Not sure I'd want to walk it though, its along the A5.
 
The toilets, showers etc were very clean. The other stuff, freezer, other domestic appliances looked OK but we didnt use them. I think its the first time I've seen a microwave in a camp site!
 
I liked this site so much that I really dont like to criticize anything but out of a sense of objectivity I will - it was virtually impossible to get the showers at a stable temperature somewhere between too hot and freezing cold.
 
 Still, that's not going to stop me from going back. If I want top quality showers I should stay in a hotel (and that ain't always guaranteed)  :-)

Reviewer: Mauricpage@btinter 4 reviews from this member

 Arrived at the camp site after a 6hr drive and was made welcome straight away. We had a choice of where we wanted to pitch our tent, as it was muddy because of lots of rain the week before. Carol (owner)told us that we didnt need to pay until we leave in case we wanted to leave early, even though we had booked for the week.
  The surroundings were beautiful! The facilities are very clean and more than we expected. There are two showers and two toilets in the main block(showers are 10p for 2 mins)Then there is a large toilet near the top of the campsite near the house. There was a seperate room in the toilet block which had 2 tumble driers,a spin drier,microwave,iron and ironing board,hair dryer and a toaster! all of which were 10p for 3 mins or you could plug in anything you wanted for the same price.
  Mobile phones could be charged at the house for free! There is also a room for washing up with 2 large sinks and there is a freezer for you to put any items in or to borrow their icepacks. Nothing is too much trouble for either Carol and her husband Gareth,which came in handy as we forgot our airbed pumps, which had very strange connections which no-one on the camp had. Gareth soon helped us out and managed to pump them up for us.
  The site is ran along side their farm,but we didnt hear any noise all week apart from the odd bleat from the sheep, it was very peaceful. We had a beautiful week which was helped by Carol telling us about all the different walks we could do, they are even printed out on a sheet with distance etc.
  We enjoyed it so much we booked for next year the day we paid to go home!  10 out of 10!   well done!

 Can't recommend this site highly enough! We had a great stay despite torrential rain every night, and the tumble dryers were really handy for drying off everything. Carol, the owner, was really friendly and helpful and the facilities clean. The pool- table was a godsend for the kids.
The pitches are good but we chose one under a tree - bad move considering the rain. The owners allow gazebos which is handy for kitchen space.
The sheep are in the field next door so expect some noise but the site is a working farm and this comes with the territory.
The area is great, we even got the boys walking which would never happen at home. We'll be back!

 Enjoyed our stay very much. Very nice lady owner who was very helpful. Very nice camp site with spectacular views. Would highly recommend. Shower block and toilet block was clean and tidy. Village is a few miles away for shops etc, some excellent walks from the site through the valleys nearby. Good central location for snowden and surrounding area.

Reviewer: Pagen 2 reviews from this member

 Arrived home yesterday (31/05/07) from this campsite having choosen it from the reviews on this site.
It has everything you need to enjoy a peaceful, relaxing holiday. We arrived on Bank hol Monday for 3 nights expecting it to be busy but not once did we have to queue for toilets, showers or washing up facilities.
Carol & Gareth made us feel very welcome and gave us a fab pitch which was overlooking a little stream. The kids 2,5 & 6 spent hours (supervised)in it 'fishing' & dam building. (Better fun than any playground by far)
We had noted that some reviews complained about farm 'noise' but given that it is a farm in the countryside some noise was expected HOWEVER nothing at all.
Some owners had dogs but at no time were there ANY loose or any mess seen.
The loud music rules were also enforced promptly 10/10 !(nearby camper felt the need to entertain the campsite with Guns & Roses)
Just 2 miles down the road is Betws y Coed. Lovely village with some great outdoor gear shops and a variety of places to eat. None of the usual 'tat' shops.
Overall a fab site with massive pitches, spotlessly clean, amazing views, central to attractions, child friendly, sheltered, peaceful.
Thank you Carol & Gareth for a lovely holiday, see you at the end of the month !

 Just spent the weekend here with the kids and it was great. It is a great base for walking (snowdonia) or cycling. The nearby waterfalls are lovely (conwy and swallow). Some of the pitches are on a slope but if you get there early enough you can get a nice flat one.
The only one small negative about the site is that you need 10p pieces for the showers. It can be a bit of a pain getting them changed. I would gladly pay an extra £1 or £2 per person per night rather than mess about with 10p's
The owners are great, really friendly and clearly work really hard keeping the place spotless.
There is microwave and toaster in the kitchen area that can be used and there is a well stocked cupboard with cutlery /plates/cups etc just incase you forget anything.
There are ample leaflets regarding things to do for all ages.
This is an ideal place for a quiet break as there is no music/beer or noise allowed after 11pm. After a hard day walking up Snowdon we needed an early night!
Prices are very reasonable.
I would definitely recommend this site and we will be visiting again.

 Loved this site, turned up on chance over a bank holiday weekend and stayed two nights. Site is clean and tidy with ample space between pitches. Owners are very helpful and prices are very reasonable. Games room for the kids and a good base for walking or just relaxing, we will certainly return this year. 


Date of Visit: June 2005 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Peety 2 reviews from this member

 Loved this site and would go back again, just the type of no frills site we like. The facilities are very clean.

As someone else has mentioned there was quite a bit of noise in the morning from the farmers quad bike but this is too be expected because it is a working farm and I loved watching the farmer and his dog round the sheep up whilst making breakfast. Watch out for the farm cat it is lovely but will under the fly sheet stealing food before you know it.

When we stayed we were the only ones on the campsite and it rained non stop for the whole weekend, the cloud just descended over the valley and never lifted, despite the weather being glorious in Conway.
The stay was fantastic though because of the the rural nature of the site and the fact that we played pool for several hours every evening.

As mentioned before there is a greasy spoon at the bottom of the farm track which is cheap and cheerful, word of warning however don't bother paying to go into Conway falls it really is not worth it at all.

Reviewer: Awcam 4 reviews from this member

 Stayed here for 2 nights, turned up without booking. It’s a great campsite - the views are absolutely stunning and the site is very peaceful. Facilities were spotless and the farm dogs were not a problem despite having the pitch closest to the farmhouse and having our 2 dogs with us. I thought prices very good, £24 for 2 nights - campervan, awning, 2 adults, 2 dogs & elec. Hook-up. We will definitely be back

Reviewer: Katiet 7 reviews from this member

 Good site with good facilities. In peak season the showers/site can get very busy. Great location for visiting North Wales. Betws-y-coed isn't far and it has a large selection of shops. The cafe just down the road from the campsite is worth a visit (saves on the washing up). There are some great walks, Snowdon is a must for the more adventurous. Dogs are welcome on the site. You can choice a wide range of locations to pitch you tent, some are more secluded than others, these are great when you have dogs. Would definitely go there again.

Reviewer: Jenni2307 3 reviews from this member

 Didn't book site in advance, phoned up an hour before arrival and were told to turn up when we liked. When we arrived we were met outside the owners house, very welcoming and friendly, gave us a choice of pitches and advised us on the best. Even provided us with hook up cable and left outside light on to help us set up.  Owner then told us she was walking to the shop and did we want her to get us anything!
 
Toilets and showers very clean, washing up facilities indoor and tumble drier and washing machine provided. Very informative site, all over the walls in the washing up room a was information where to go and what to see and local walks to do. Owners also sell basics on site (milk and eggs).
 
Stayed here whilst touring Wales and were so impressed we went back again at the end of the week.

Reviewer: Sarahw6789 4 reviews from this member

 We thought this was a lovely camp-site. The views are spectacular.
We were met by the owner, who was very welcoming and told us we could pitch anywhere we liked, but also pointed out the best spots.
The wash up area was clean and had plenty of hot water. There was also plenty of useful local information.
The toilets and sinks were all clean. The showers were clean but not very inviting, and we didn't try them! (we were only there one night so it wasn't a problem).
It was a busy site, and the only thing we didn't like was being able to hear a TV from the tent next to us which had opted for an electric hook up. Still some people might see it as a plus to have the facility of electricity - and if you don't like it, or don't want the noise pollution, there are plenty of spaces away from the pitches thathave electricity - so we'd go again but choose our pitch more carefully!

Reviewer: Darkembers 1 review from this member

 After reading all the reviews and seeing the website for this campsite, myself and my husband thought it looked a beautiful little spot in Wales. The countryside was beautiful but the campsite did not live up to the standards that we where expecting.

First of all I have to say that the toilets and facilities where spotless and definitely adequate, possibly even better than some of the other campsites we have stayed at, however it was not the facilities or views that where the problem.

The first problem was noise, and strangely this did not come from other campers but from the people running the farm. When we got there Carol pointed out, what she stated, was a "nice quiet spot by the wall" which was next to the loo block. And true to her word it was quiet, until it got to about 6.30 pm when a man (who I would guess is her husband) gets his Quad bike out of the barn and randomly drives through the field where we where camped, then drove over to the next field to us where the sheep where and just seemed to drive round and round in circles for no apparent reason other than to make a noise. This we could forgive, had it not been for the second night we where there when at 9.30 pm this same man decided to get into his tractor, drive through the field we where camping in and CUT THE GRASS! in the next field. Every set of campers in the field came out to see what the unbelievably loud noise was. Quite frankly we just found it ridiculous. There are rules about noise here and the people that own the place make more noise than anyone else. I know this is a working farm but 9.30 pm at night is just ridiculous, especially as the noise went on well past 10pm.

The second problem we had was that the people running the site dont follow their own rules when it comes to dogs. There are warnings all over the toilet block about letting your dog off the lead and that you could be thrown off the site especially if your dog fouls and you dont clean, which is fair enough I suppose as we follow these rules on every campsite. However, the first night we where there two of the farm dogs ran over to the fence close to where our dog was tied and started to get extremely agressive. Jack was tied up so couldnt get near them but we where subjected to about 15 minutes of growling and barking from the farm dogs and no one came over to even attempt to control them. The second day we where there we nearly killed one of their dogs as we where leaving the road coming up to the campsite when it flew across the road with neither owner nor leash in sight. The final straw was when we where coming back on the second night to the camp when we saw one of their dogs jump over the wall by our tent, when we got there we discovered that it had just fouled next to our tent which we ended up having to clean up.

Having never come across a site where the owners dont follow their own rules we where rather unsettled by this to say the least.

 Perfect site for me, my husband and 2 year old daughter. Nearly all family's here so no issue with noise at all. Toilets/showers very clean and good facilities for freezing blocks, washing pots etc. Plenty of space and a very friendly family run it. 5 mins to Betws y Coed. Fantastic views. A all round perfect site. Its our second time here and we will definitely be going back.
