 Mynydd Du is a very well kept, well presented site, with excellent facilities and friendly owners.

A word of warning for motorhomers though, as due to its fairly remote location, it is much more suited to caravanners, i. E. Separate transport is not completely essential, but a definite bonus, as the site is situated 1. 5 miles from Criccieth Town Centre, along an undulating route.

There are bus stops situated about 15 mins walk from the site, however the bus service is not the most frequent. The railway station is situated at the far end of Criccieth from the site, about 2 miles away.

As stated on the website, the site is situated in an elevated position, with fine views over Cardigan Bay, however this does also bring with it the fact that a stiff breeze is nearly always blowing across. You pays your money and takes your choice.

To conclude, I would recommend this site for caravans, but not for motorhomes.

 What a lovely site.

Pitches are well spaced with a mixture of sited caravans, mobile homes and lodges. The site is elevated so you have great views of sea and mountains.

Because of C-19 facilities were opened a week into our stay, with social distancing measures. The site is clean quiet and a pleasure to stay.

Locally there are some lovely beaches, and in the towns plenty of shops and cafe.

We don't have children so have rated according to the children's laughter on😁.

 The site owners/staff were brilliant at reception and later on.

They were in the midst of building new shower blocks and were able to open 2 units for the touring field, unfortunately it got blocked and the serviced unit next door and my drain got sewerage come up, they dealt with it immediately and even cleaned up the caravan shower next door which was contaminated. Good work.

The area was great, good views of sea, lovely cafes and restaurants are to be had in Criccieth and great days out on the steam trains from Porthmadog, had a wonderful Easter weekend, really appreciated the owners/staff in clean up.

We walked to Criccieth for meals and a few drinks, only down side was the extremely steep 20ft road to the immediate entrance of the site and the site entrance was hard to spot, I drove past it and had to turn around to find it again.

I think when the rest of the shower units, which were a good size and clean despite humongous spider, the touring field will be brilliant.

 As a wheelchair user and lone caravanner I can't praise this site enough.

The help was excellent from arrival to putting awning up. Couldn't find the play area for my young granddaughter, but the pitch was amazing with uninterrupted panoramic views and the facilities were spotless with the best disabled facilities I have come across.

Free hot water with no 'push buttons' and washing up/laundry is accessible and spotless.

It's within a short drive from Black Rock sands, a large beach you can take your car on and is reasonably priced for the area.

 Just recently visited and stayed with a caravan in the tent field with two other families and absolutely loved it!

The views are fantastic and the owners couldn't be nicer. Looking at last reviews the loos and waste is a little walk from the tent field but so worth it.

Great for our two dogs too! Will definitely be back and revisit in the future. Loved it!

 Stunning views of mountains & coast. Good walking direct from site. Criccieth an easy 30 mins walk by roadside footpath or along the beach which is mostly pebble when the tide is in or sand lower down when the tide is out. Criccieth is nice with good shops, pubs & restaurants.

Supermarkets are a 10 min drive away. No site shop so bring essentials for that first brew ! Toilet block is good and showers hot. Only downside is distance between touring pitches to the toilet block, which is also where the waste disposal points are.

The site owners are very friendly and helpful. The area is well worth a visit and this site is one I'm sure we will return to.

Reviewer: S-price13 5 reviews from this member

 My wife and I recently stayed at this site.

I booked a hardstanding pitch for our motorhome.

When we arrived I was very disappointed to find our pitch was shared with a busy car park next to the bins.

Most of the sites hardstanding is seasonal which I didn't know and was not explained on booking.

Most of the campsite users seem to drive to the toilets and leave their car at the carpark which was far from peaceful.

We couldn't pick up their free wifi.

Showers needed re grouting and the pressure was poor - wasn't a fan of the rusty soap rack.

All said the views were impressive but sadly we will not return

 Just returned from a fabulous 12 day stay at this site and I am glad to say that I would recommend this site to anyone! The pitches are all hardstanding and fully serviced and (for the most part) level.

There are only a small number of touring pitches available as most are taken up by seasonal caravans. The pitches are terraced so views up to Mount Snowdon and across Cardigan Bay are superb.

The toilet blocks are located close to the entrance and are well maintained but I feel they could get busy during school holidays as there are only 3 showers for each block. There is one washing machine (£3. 50 per wash) and a dryer (£1. 50) and two sinks for pot washing. There is a separate field for tents which is quite steep and a long walk from the toilet blocks.

There is a security barrier at the entrance but this is not working so site security could be an issue.

The site is a 30 minute walk from Criccieth and a short drive to Pothmaddoc where there are ample supermarkets including Lidl, Aldi and Tesco. A great place to go to and very quiet out of holidays during the week. Looking forward to going back next year.

 Fabulous few days at this site, absolutely amazing views of coast and mountains to wake up to. Not the biggest pitches we have been on, but fully serviced and reliable electricity, although not many spaces the site was relaxed and very quiet.

Very clean shower and toilet block, loads of hot water, shelf and hook for stuff. As someone else has mentioned, would suggest a mop or some way of cleaning floors after showering and leaving inevitable muddy footprints.

Lots to do in the area, loved Black Rock Sands where we could drive on to the beach. Porth Madog (10 min walk) great for a wander and shop/coffee, good food at the pub.

We added on an additional day - we had to phone to do this, but we were very grateful when our request was accommodated by some juggling around. Looking forward to returning.
