 We have just returned from a fab 8 days at Manorafon Farm, the owners Jules and Will are lovely and friendly, check in was easy and our pitch was ready for us. The site is small and friendly, the grass is kept short, the washing up area/ waste area are always clean and tidy. The toilets are cleaned daily and while they are being cleaned you can use the disabled toilet. In the whole time we stayed did not run out of anything, there is a washer/drier and freezer to freeze ice packs. There is also a new shop and the children's farm is open (you do have to pay but at a reduced rate)
The only things I would add is a light in the washing up area and laundry room but that would just be a bonus, we have already booked to go back next year for 2 separate holidays.
My children love the site (14, 12&9) and always make friends. It is in the perfect location for exploring North Wales.

Just returned from our week camping at Manorafon. We had an XL grass pitch with electric. We have been visiting Manorafon for many years and have met some good camping friends who we meet year after year at the site. Will and Jules have been working very hard as usual both with maintaining and improving the site year on year. The site is very safe for our daughter (age 12) and her friends to hang out and cycle around. The site has everything you could need, clean toilets (cleaned twice a day and inspected more, we know this as we always pitch right in front of them!), hot running showers, shop stocked with the essentials, helpful management in Will and Jules, walking distance to the beach (20 - 30 mins), town of Abergele also walking distance with a large Tesco and many local shops and pubs etc. The campsite also has a farm which you can visit (discount on entrance fee for campers), we did not visit the farm this year but you can see that it has grown somewhat on last year. Although our camping is over for the season we have booked again for three visits next year! Keep up the good work Will and Jules and see you next year.

First time camping as one big family 2 tents 4 children 2 parents. Site was amazing the area was clean tidy and easy to navigate round. Plenty of facilities and all were very very clean and well maintained. Pitches had been tidied and mowed plenty of space for large tents etc. The guys who own/run the place are fantastic, friendly, dedicated and brill. Highly recommend

Just spent 3 nights at this site. Myself with my two children 18 and 12. We had a fantastic couple of days. The site is clean, friendly and located in beautiful surroundings. You can see the hills on one side and the ocean on the other. A short walk away from the site are the remains of Gwrych castle which is steeped in history and a must see. There is a large supermarket 5 mins from site in Abergely. Also lots of places to eat and drink. 20 min drive you are in Rhos- on- sea which has amazing beaches.
This site is in an ideal location for anyone wanting to tour parts of North Wales you are only 10 mins away from the A55 in any direction. I would recommend this site to all and will definitely be going back.

Visited here expecting a top class site. It's not. The toilets are insufficient for the size of the site and whilst we were there - they only got cleaned once (in 5 nights) There are only 2 toilets and 2 showers in the gents so expect a queue some times and expect a smell. The hard-standing pitches are uneven and small. The 'grass' by the caravan was mostly just soil and after it rained I slipped on the mud.
There is one good point - it is a short walk into the town and there is a large Tesco there. There are some good pubs in the town and the meals were good. Short drive to nearby towns and castles.
But we will not be going back.

Brilliant campsite. The owners have done loads since we last came 3 years ago. And now we have our camping gear sorted we will b regulars.
Everything is well maintained. Pitches are good sizes enough room for kids to play.
Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves myself, partner and our two girls. The farm is brilliant all animals very friendly highly recommended.
Everywheres clean and looked after and the owners are still looking to do more new things. 😃

We have just spent 4 nights at Manorafon farm, it is great, Jules and husband Will go to great lengths to make sure you have a good holiday, nothing is too much trouble, the toilet facilitieas are new and are kept immaculate, the shop is being made bigger and they have eggs bacon and lots of meat for the BBQ, park is kept well groomed and the small rare breeds animal area is great for the young and old, its a bit of a trek into Abergelle, we are in our seventies, but there a lots of seats along the road so a steady amble is just fine, busses are very regular to Llandudno and Rhyll, every 10 to 15 minutes and bus stops are outside the entrance, so very handy, get a day pass £10 for two and get on and off whenever or wherever, lovely park in Abergelle and The Bull serves terrific food at reasonable prices, we hope to go back soon

This was our first time camping and what a great site to start on. We are a family of four we had a lovely time the site is very quiet and clean Will and Jules were very helpful and gave us all the information we needed. The farm on the site was great and the children enjoyed feeding the animals and meeting the baby piglets.
There's a walk at the side of the site that takes you down to the castle which was lovely to do. Tesco was in walking distance and the village what had a great fish and chip shop best I've had in a long time.
We also brought sausages and bacon from site shop and they were amazing can't wait to come and stay again.

What a beautiful site! Will welcomed us onto the site and showed us to our pitch, telling us about the local area as we went. My girls (9 & 11) loved the farm - especially the baby goats and entry was only £6 for the lot of us and feed 50p a bag. And that covered the entire day! Pitches are roomy (tent pitches are huge!) and really well kept. We would definitely return.

Our visit was for 4 nights and glad it wasn't any longer to be quite honest.
Our pitch was probably the worst on site as trying to manoeuvre the caravan onto a hardstanding with a fence directly opposite proved to be somewhat awkward to say the least. However, two members of staff arrived, battling to unhitch my caravan in quick time only because mine was blocking the way for another car and caravan coming on site. My caravan was pushed into position by them (due to no motor mover) but wasn't level so during our stay we had an internal washroom door swinging open and a wardrobe door that kept swinging shut which was rather annoying. The grassy awning area adjacent to our pitch was muddy and the pitch in general really wasn't long enough for the length of our caravan anyway so the awning didn't fit well due to the sloping ground at the front. There was also a grass bank over a foot high between the awning and car due to the sloping field which was dangerous as I slipped twice on the wet grass which was unavoidable but basically, the pitch provided would have been more ideal for a motorhome in more ways than one.
The site was extremely noisy with shouting kids and children as young as 3 were playing around the back of the toilet block where the chemical toilet emptying point was located. All the site rules were being disobeyed in one way or another as kids were running between the parked cars and awnings and parents sat and watched their kids kicking a hard football around in the adjacent vacant caravan pitches.
We didn't make any formal complaint as we were only there for 4 nights but some new arrivals with a young child did complain about the noise in the evening the day before our departure so it wasn't us just being grumpy. We were glad to get away from the bedlam and return home for some peace and quiet.
The campsite didn't reflect the standard as expected and have stayed on much better sites in the past for less so there's no attraction for us to return in the future.

Just spent a week at one of the best sites we have visited, toilets and showers always clean and hot water whatever time you went. Jules checked us in, showed us where everything was and took us to our pitch, she was always available and could be seen about all day. It got very busy over the weekend but everyone was treated with the same courteous welcome, our pitch was at the front so we noticed this more then others. There was the usual basic site rules which everyone kept to, lots of children about but not sound after 10pm. Eggs were available to buy and had to move the chickens one morning to get ours. It was far enough from the town but not that far to walk, Tesco, pubs, eating houses all within 10 minuets walk. Never visited the farm animals but saw lots of children and parents going in. Will visit again and would recommend.

We returned again in our Folding Camper to this great camp site to see further improvements.
Jules welcomed us and showed us to a wonderful roomy grass pitch with EHU.
Had wonderful walks with the dogs, a large park in Sea Road (5 mins walk) a stroll up the drive towards the castle and also to Pensarn Beach.
We will certainly return!
Just as a suggestion, would it be possible to site a bin near the Washing Up area. While we were there someone had left a right mess in one of the sinks, it was cleared by another camper, but may not have occurred if there had been a handy bin.

We have just returned from 4 nights (Saturday to Wednesday) at Manorafon. This was the first weekend of the school holidays and was quite busy with first impressions not that good. There were large numbers of children playing unsupervised on the site making a lot of noise and running across other people's pitches to get wherever they wanted to go. We have a 9 year old daughter so we understand the need for kids to explore and play but in this case kids as young as 3 and 4 were left to their own devices and obviously most of the parents didn't have a clue what they were up to!
The usual groups were also in attendance creating a lot of noise cackling away without any consideration for other people on the site.
However, things went quiet every night after about 10/10. 30pm which was well before the 11pm site noise curfew.
Upon arriving we were met by very friendly staff who showed us to our pitch, the reception/shop is being revamped at the moment but they sell frrozen sausages, burgers and fresh eggs from the farm. We only tried the eggs and some pork and apple sausages and must say they were very good.
The site itself is quite well kept with varying sizes of pitches, we had booked an XL EHU pitch which was very large at about 14 x 11 metres, flat and well positioned for the facilities. Some of the other pitches were very small though and those on the upper field were on quite a slope so I would recommend asking when booking. We had quite a lot of rain when we were there but the pitches were very well drained.
The shower block was reasonably modern but nothing special. The gents were always clean but my wife did comment that the ladies had a strong smell of sewage and were a bit dirty at times. The staff told us on arrival that they are cleaned at 5am and then again at lunchtime. The showers were the push button variety with a fixed head and were warm but not hot. Three undercover pot wash sinks were outside on the end of the toilet block, the hot water here was tepid at best and the sinks suffered quite badly from people not cleaning up after themselves.
Abergele is 2 minutes drive up the road with a small collection of shops, takeaways and pubs. There is a also a large Tesco. Pensarn beach is 5 mins drive away and is a pebbly beach with a nice little cafe and shop and had a nice quiet feel to it. Rhyl is 10 minutes drive and is a bit tired and very much a kiss me quick sort of place. Llandudno and Conwy are 20 minutes in the other direction and have far more to offer.
All in all a nice little site only really spoilt by the amount of kids roaming the site. This is obviously a site very popular with families and could really do with the additions of a recreation field or play area for them to let off steam on.

Lovely clean campsite, cleanest I have stayed on. Nice and quiet, lovely friendly staff and campers. Nice little farm with shop selling fresh eggs and meat. Close local beach and shops. Perfect in every way. Dog friendly too. Beach is about ten minute walk as is tesco and some local pubs. Close enoughh but not too close, still pretty and peacerful campsite with lovely background views of castle and hilss. Campsite is in an old farm building, actually drive in through its walls and archway or round pat donkey field.

This is a beautifully kept site. Lovely big pitches, excellent facilities, Farmyard for children to visit, home made burgers and sausages sold from the office. We arrived after a move from another site which was near the A55 and terribly noisy, hurried phone calls and they found us a pitch, we had asked for a standard pitch but only extra large pitches were available but we were only charged a standard pitch fee (£72 for 4 nights, excellent value). Abergele 5 minutes stroll away, large Tesco for supplies and a few pubs which we used primarily for wi-fi. Walk to the beach about 15 minutes, though a bit stony and with a cafe, amusements and gift shop on the front
