 We visited this site in August and found it to be clean, well kept and with a great playground suitable for my two children aged 6 and 7. The showers block and toilets were immaculate. The wardens were friendly although we did not see a great deal of them. The information hut was as stated. Make a donation to the wardens charity and they give you a fact sheet of a great waterfall walk. We were lazy and actually drove part of the way (until you got to the water tunnel that looked like something out of LOST) - it is not recommended though!
On a negative side the site is quite isolated. As previously stated the village pub looks a bit dingy from the outside. Didn't eat there so can't comment on food but they did have special midweek offers up to 7.00pm and the dining area was pretty full. The village shop was closed, the nearest approx 3 miles away. Also not much to do when it rains.Do your research first as the local slate mines/steam train etc were very expensive.
Harlech Castle was good (can buy a welsh pass which gives admittance to a number of other castles in the area). Portmerion was OK - nothing to do if it rains and a bit disappointing for children. It was cheaper after 3.00pm. Avoid the video if with young children as very boring.
Portmadog was nice - everything closed at 5.30pm though! Big Tesco selling petrol. Wanted to go up Snowdonia but family ticket was approx £83. Half price before 9.00 am but you have to book in advance and it was completely full(and for the following 2 weeks) when we visited. Walking is always a cheaper option. Good free National Slate Museum as Llanberis.
Would recommend as something for everyone. Greenwoods good for younger children but expect a drive of approx 1.20 hour. Some good beaches - Black Rock Sands, Cricceth - but again expect to drive.
The other main problem with this site was the steepness of some if the slopes. Children / bikes / scooters and steep slopes result in accidents and both my children came off at some point.
Other than that the kids had a great time. They made lots of friends, played out for hours (weather permitting) and have said that they would be quite happy to go back again.

The site was well maintained in keeping with Caravan Club standards. The site is easy to find and in a quiet location but limited views due to surrounding trees. Pitching in one of the cul de sacs during school holidays saw children cycling up and down during the evenings. Having said that our peace wasn't disturbed too much. Didn't try the pub opposite as it looked some what ran down. However did use the Oakley Arms a couple of miles down the road which was ok.
Good location for touring Snowdonia given its central position. Take plenty of provisions as nearest supermarket is 10 miles away in Porthmadog. This is a traffic hot spot and takes ages to fight through traffic jams. A nice place and would stay again.

Stayed 2 nights.
Lovely site, very well kept.
Helpful wardens.
Facilities C.C. Standard as you would expect.
Good base to tour from.
Went on a couple of walks (leaflet from office) really nice.
The pub opposite is not so good, more of a run down social club (have nothing against social clubs!)bit grubby.
My husband said the beer was OK though.
Village shop closed down, nothing for a few miles, so make sure you have plenty of provisions if you do not intend driving out!
Office does sell a few basics though.
Attractive site would use again if in the area.

1st visit to a Caravan Club campsite. The welcome from the warden was very friendly. We pitched up on a grass pitch behind the wardens office which turned out to be a great spot for our two yr old to see all the comings and goings.
The toilet blocks were immaculate, however beware the toddler room can become slippy when wet
The playground mainly catered for kids of about 4 yr old upwards although it gave my toddler some practise on his climbing techniques. There was a baby swing
Power station was only noticeable when walking to the playground and was an interesting view not a hindrance.
Very good information 'shed' with leaflets and info for all activities in the area. There was a visitor book here where someone had commented that the Bryn Arms across the road was dirty. This actually dissuaded us from going initially but when we did go we were pleasantly surprised. Great food, good beer & friendly staff
Another good hostelry we found was the Rhiw Goch Inn in BronAber behind the holiday village
Would definitely use the site again when visiting N. Wales
.And yes it did rain !

The site is easy to find and a good base for exploring this part of Wales. The pitches are well set out and the facilities up to Caravan Club standards, the children's play area is very good too.
The site is very isolated and the nearest shop is around 6 miles away, the reception sells essentials though.We did not visit the pub opposite the site but it didn't look too welcoming.
If you visit this site I would recommend the walks (directions from the site office) to the waterfall and the dam and power station. Portmadog and the two steam railways there are both worth a visit as is the slate museum at LLanberis(free admission). The only down side is the occasional buzzing from the decommissioned power station, the site is also steep in places but on the whole I liked this site very much.

We have just visited this site for a long weekend and I have got to say we loved it. The site itself is broken up very nicely into 4 or five levels and has small horseshoe areas of 5 or 6 pitches within small wooded areas. Loads of wildlife such as rabbits and squirrels pottering around the vans. The play area was good and is on the bottom of a banking just away from the pitches so there was plenty of room for the kids to play without causing meyhem.
The warden was very friendly and helpful and couldn't do enough for you. Toilets and showers where very clean. Walking and bike riding in the area was excellent however when we where there very wet.Fantastic views surround the whole site and the so called power station is very much out of the way and hardly noticeable, don't know what the whole fuss is about. Bad reception for the TV though would recommend a booster or satellite dish. Will definitely return next year.

Excellent site, wardens very helpful and friendly, toilet and shower block spotlessly clean and a very well organised site.
There is a good pub opposite and some good walks. We walked from the camp site up towards the Power Station (which is still there) and found the visitors information about the power station interesting.
Ideal base for Portmerion and Porthmadog.
On the whole, an excellent site, will definitely visit again.

We found this site to be well run and well located. It is in a small village with good pub opposite the site and a general store. The nearest main town is Portmadog. The facilities were spotlessly clean and plentiful. Staff were helpful and accommodating and gave useful info on local area and public transport. In response to other reviews, we did not notice a power station while we were there so it has either been demolished or is well hidden.
The site is a good base for exploring Snowdonia. Within driving distance there is excellent coastline, the excellent walking in Snowdonia and Lake Bala with a wide range of watersports.
Would certainly return.

Our first time caravanning and we were impressed both with the site and the area, the wardens were very helpful and the facilities were very clean the whole site was very well maintained. Nice little dog walk in the wooded area, and off site as well. Visited various places and can say we were very impressed with the locals who were very helpful when we got lost and had to turn the outfit around, talk about baptism by fire, however we will be going back to Wales.

Lovely quiet site with plenty of wildlife. There are walks to be enjoyed from the door and the Bryn Arms pub across the road to relax in of an evening serving good food and real ale. The power station is barely noticeable being well screened by bushes and trees. Wardens were all very friendly and the toilets couldn't have been cleaner. We can't wait to go again. Our one disappointment was finding the Grapes pub in Maentwrog closed for refurbishment - it is apparently expected to be open again in July.
