Just returned from a week here - the last week of the season. The site was immaculate and exceptional value for money.
Our pitch was superb although a little exposed for the strength of the wind, but the views and weather were really excellent considering the time of year.
The site is handy for lots and lots of beautiful places to explore. Such a beautiful area! Pam and her staff were first rate and very helpful in every way.
We would thoroughly recommend this site to anyone.
First visit to this site and was not disappointed. Easy access from the A55 to well maintained and level pitches, some of which have a water point and waste drainage.
The toilets / showers were kept very clean but I think an opportunity to make the shower cubicles more spacious was missed as there is a lot of empty space. 4 toilet cubicles, 4 urinals and 4 showers but only 2 sinks lead to queues at times.
The showers were very poorly lit with just one down light positioned midway between the shower and changing area. The water temperature was always very good and you get a decent run of water per push of the button. Squeegee mops are provided to dry the shower floor after use but these were in need of cleaning as they smelled badly being always wet.
The site is ideally located to explore North Wales with Anglesey, Llandudno, Conwy, Betws-y-coed and LLanberis to name just a few places to visit.
The Gladstone pub close to the entrance to the site is a nice place to go for either just a drink or for a meal.
As mentioned in other reviews, the site is very exposed and wind can be a problem especially for lightweight awnings.
Overall our stay was very enjoyable and we will definitely going back. The fact that the site is adults only is a bonus especially during the summer months.
First time at this site, and first in the area for many, many years!
Booked by 'phone on the Monday prior to arrival. Was asked for a £20 deposit, with balance payable on arrival. Not a problem of course, but still a rarity for us to pay a deposit, when booking as late as we do.
The cost was around 50% more expensive than we are used to, but we really wanted to camp (and cycle) in this area, and the site reviews were encouraging, so why not!
We received a confirmation Email, a code number for the outer barrier (gets you access to the car park and reception), and the warning not to rely on the postal post code for directions to the entrance.
The booking process, reception on arrival, and the whole approach from the staff were nothing short of welcoming and impeccable. Just like the site itself. Very well tended to, with plants and flower beds throughout the site, all looking immaculate. After settling the balance payment, and handing over a (returnable) fiver for the access card for the inner barrier (to access the site proper) we were escorted to our pitch (G1).
Average size, nice covering of tidily mowed grass, but sloping down from front to back. Having a short fat tent, and pitching across the pitch gave us the all important 'bum to wind', as it was most definitely windy when we arrived. As a bonus, this also gave us a partial sea view (only available on this first tent pitch, whilst pretty much all hardstanding pitches (The vast majority) offered a sea view. I suspect a long tunnel tent would either face down-slope to the trees at the back, or up-slope to the site (and rather attractive mountain beyond), (which may mean sleeping with head lower than feet!)
Anything deeper than 4' got quite stoney, so I'd advise rock/hardground pegs. Held very well though, without a doubt.
Once pitched (our neighbours abandoned their attempt and left site, leaving us as sole representatives of the tenting community, amongst a vast array of wheeled units), the owner/warden, without prompting, very kindly added their Land Rover as an additional windbreak alongside our own MPV. As the winds were regularly throwing gusts in excess of 40mph (and nearer 60mph later that night!), it goes without saying that that little gesture was very much appreciated!
(For the record, the wind dropped considerably throughout the Saturday, and didn't even merit a mention on the Sunday and Monday morning, so just because it sit's high above the coastline, don't presume it is permanently windy here, as it wasn't!)
Very nice amenities block. Always clean, never busy. Water always hot and plentiful. Lots and lots of 'local leaflets'. No shop on site (suits us!). A laundry and wash-up room, again all spotless.
There was a pub just outside the site entrance, which appeared to be nice. But we didn't try it on this occasion. We would have done if I had my way! Next time, hopefully!
A good 5 minute trundle (on bikes) to get down to the promenade/cycle path, then a perfect (for us) ride East through Conwy, and on around the estuary to LLandudno. 90% traffic-free.
If I had to be negative, we both got the feeling that a small number of guests gave the impression that they considered themselves too high and mighty to raise a smile, or even return a 'good morning' in our direction, wot wiv us only 'avin' a tent, innit. Not really experienced that anywhere else, in all honesty. But thankfully, they were by far the minority, and we did get some lovely comments from others regarding our tent, and it's determination not to be beaten by the elements!
I'm tempted to say it's a little expensive here, but for us, with the setting, the condition of the site, the welcome from, and professionalism of the staff, the location, and proximity(ish!) to our target area of Llandudno, and of course, that there are no kids running about (It was the main summer school holidays) I'd just about say it was value for money. There were enough all round positives for us to be tempted back to the area, and back to this site.
Thanks for having us, and a mega thanks for the loan of your 4 wheel drive windbreak!
We have visited here 4 times now. It is a beautiful site with superb scenery, or so I am told (I am blind). From the moment of arrival Pam and her team make us very welcome and take the caravan off the car and manoeuvre it into place. A new addition to the pitches we have been on is a waste water pipe making bringing a wastemaster unnecessary. The toilets are excellent and very clean. I tend to use the accessible room if available and I have a minor issue in the fact that this room is enclosed and needs better ventilation A nice touch is the fact that the drinking water taps have a flexible pipe attached. The wifi signal is good although we now have the facility to pick up BT Open Zone. The site is quiet and the people are very friendly. The site is conveniently located for many areas including Angelsey, Llandudno and Conway to name a few. There are useful shops within walking distance. Penmaenmawr is an interesting town and is quite quirky. It can be very windy on this site and sometimes it seems to come from nowhere. Take advice from Pam about whether to erect an awning or not. We have been twice this year and neither time did we put up our awning.
Just spent 3 amazing days on this caravan park. Everything about it is truly outstanding, the Staff, cleanliness, views, and more. We will most certainly visit again, hopefully very soon. I can honestly say one of the very best we have visited, and we were very lucky with the weather. Gorgeous! Love the wet room!
Very lovely site very clean, very helpful staff. The toilet block is spotless we going again next week. The area is good lot's of place's to go there is a hotel just outside site and a bus stop just a few minutes walk. There a couple of shops in village.
My parents stayed here for a long weekend as their 30th anniversary treat, and found the caravan to be very clean and well-kept, and very comfortable for their break.
Beautiful scenery and you can see across to Puffin Island on a clear day.
There is free WiFi however sadly the signal was extremely weak and couldn't even be used for sending low resolution photos back home.
The owner Pam is very polite, it's just that some of the emails my parents received in reply to the occasional question (ie. Dates of availability, deposit etc) were very short and blunt, though.
All in all, my parents probably won't be staying here again but they really enjoyed staying in the caravan.
Lovely site with amazing sea views. Our pitch was on the raised terraces with an uninterrupted view out to sea. Our only criticism of the pitch was that it was badly in need of weeding, I think our area was the worst on the site, just looked a bit unkept. The toilets/showers were good although dimly lit and push button showers with no control for temperature, would never be my first choice. The wardens were friendly enough and the way they take your caravan off the car and pitch up for you is fab, particularly after a long journey. The Gladstone pub at the entrance to the site is worth a visit, steak night was fantastic value for money - just a shame they didn't let dogs in. Nice walk to beach from site, dogs allowed all year. Wi-fi not included and quite expensive for the week. Lots to see and do in the area, everywhere we visited was lovely. Overall a good site, but a couple of improvements would take this site in to league of its own.
Welcoming and friendly owner. Terraced, , secure site in an absolutely lovely location set between Llandudno and Conwy with stunning sea views to the front and welsh mountain at the rear. Nice and quiet, gardens and all plots well maintained and a credit to the owner. Electric hook up points close by pitches, water taps near by.
Shower facilities, toilets and laundry room well maintained and decorated. Although terraced and near to the A55, the site is very peaceful and a short walk takes you to the beach and surrounding areas i. E. Local pub on doorstep, village shop nearby, etc. Also close by are all North Wales hot spots so convenient for touring the areas.
Adult only site so no playground but plenty of beautiful flowers, shrubs and lawned areas including dog walk/area.
Will definitely be returning soon. Thank you Pam!
