Reviewer: Jill F 2 reviews from this member

 What a great find, have just returned from a long weekend stay and have already booked again. The site is well laid out and organised and the toilet and shower block were clean and although small we didn't have any wait for them. One of the things we look for in a site is dog walking close by or on site and this is one of the best we have found so far - 2 minutes walk from a lovely dog friendly beach with no restrictions on it.

The staff on site were friendly and helpful and walked us to our pitch pointing out the toilets, gates etc. There is a little café on the beach that does good bacon and sausage barms - doesn't open every day but worth the 2 minute walk when it is open to get one for breakfast.

The only draw back for us was that the little village and local pub were a good walk away so unless you're a walker you do need to drive.

 Beautifully sited campsite on Lligwy Beach. Approach thro' Moelfre as advised by campsite!

Main camp field sloping down towards beach gate but pitches mainly level. Not many used levelling devices. There was a rally on the other fields so did not inspect these.

Two toilet/shower blocks. Clean and well supplied though maybe a little small for size of site when fully booked.

Didn't see many facilities for kids or much of a shop. Laundry and pot-washing facilities good.

Shop and pubs in nearby/walkable Moelfre, Tesco a drive away in Benllech. Cracking castle in nearby Beaumaris!

Would we go again? Yes, for the position, though it's pricey for the facilities and over strict on regulations.

 Too good to tell anyone about it. Fantastic site, great location, friendly and welcoming. Good rules but need to warden the nighttime curfew.

There are lots of coastal walks with stunning views. Nearby Moelfre has excellent fish and chips, a good cafe and pub and an amazing wool shop combined with second hand books. Heaven!

Reviewer: Funnygirl 2 reviews from this member

 Have just returned from this lovely site. The views are beautiful and there are lots of signposted walks.

We loved this site because of the peace and quiet. Abit sloping in places so chocks would be needed.

The toilet and showers were spotless.

The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Just a 5 minute drive to the nearest village were there is a pub and a smashing fish and chip shop, small general store and cafe.

Will definitely be returning in the near future

Reviewer: Trevor + Jo 152 reviews from this member

 I read the reviews of this site before visiting and had been warned about the 'rules'. The entrance wouldn't be out of place at a prison camp with walls, fences and a security pass operated automatic gate. The 'rules' were read out on arrival, which took several minutes. We were shown to a pitch with electric which we didn't require (but were still charged £4/day for). We were informed that all the non-electric pitches were booked. You will need a £20 security fob for vehicle and pedestrian entrances.

The campsite is very well kept and clean. The toilet cubicles are however cramped and I was told that the water in the ladies showers was never really hot, although the gents was fine. Even notices in the toilets reminding you to clean the toilet bowl - do we need this?

The views from the site are superb and you are next to the beach and coast path. About an hour's stroll along a fantastic cliff path to Moelfre where the pub is OK. Beaumaris, South Stacks (Holyhead Island) and the costal walk from Bull Bay to Cemaes were my favourites. Also, check out the smoked goats cheese at City Dulas, the seafood kiosk at Benllech, the farm shop at Cefn-bach and Mon Halen sea salt. Loads to do on the Island if you appreciate coastal scenery, wildlife and the like.

After a week I found the campsite rules and regulations beginning to niggle. No radios after 21:30, BBQ's had to be out by a set time and turf burns punishable by £10 fines. Gates locked at 22:00 with a walk of shame back to your tent. You were also required to remove your car from the naughty area by a set time the following morning. I personally prefer a more relaxed, informal site.

A lovely position and most inmates seemed happy to abide by all the rules without protest, keeping themselves to themselves and being safely tucked in before dark. At the end of the week we noted that not all the non-electric pitches had in fact been occupied. Apparently the bookings had been cancelled! No refund for our unused electric either, probably in the small print.

If you want to meet people and chill, best go elsewhere, so next time I will.

Reviewer: Chrissy and Grant 8 reviews from this member

 This is a lovely, natural site in very peaceful surroundings. There are no shops or pubs nearby, although the site has a shop selling basics. The location is ideal for the beach (Lligwy Bay) which is only a minute's walk away. There is a nice beach café here. You can walk along the coast path to the pretty village of Moelfre (4-5 mile round trip) ant there is some great bird watching to be had. This won't be everyone's type of site and if you like wild night life, then it's not for you, but if you love peace and quiet and nature, then you'll love it. Facilities aren't luxury, but they're very nice and clean. The site is possibly a little pricey.

 Stunning location with easy access to the beach, excellent directions from the staff which made it easy to find. The whole site is spotlessly clean. Don't forget to take levelling chocks though. My wife and I agreed though that there were too many rules which were strictly enforced, our daughter wanted to visit us for a cuppa so we went to let the site know, however it costs £7 for a visitor so decided it would be cheaper to get on in local cafe. Also dogs are allowed but need to be taken straight of the site when taking them out for a walk. I don't think we will be back as there was no atmosphere at all, our neighbouring caravan agreed with us when we spoke casually

Reviewer: Lancsduo 1 review from this member

 Very close to beach - 2 mins walk from your pitch and you're on the sand (but don't forget the security key as you need it to leave and get back onto the site). The sand is very soft and clings to you and your dog, so the warm beach shower and cold dog shower by the beach entrance are very useful, and well thought out. There is always lots of free hot water for showers and dishwashing, and the commercial sized washing machine and dryer will take a sleeping bag and towels easily.

The facilities are kept spotless and the strict rules make sure that they are kept that way for everyone's enjoyment.

There is no playground designated, but plenty of room for your own games in the middle of the fields, and much more on the beach.

There are great walks from the site and local shops in Moelfre and Dulas, so you can get away without needing to move the car unless you must have the morning paper before breakfast!

WiFi is available for £2 a day for low volume usage, but it does drop out. Mobile phone networks are good (we tested on EE, Virgin & Three) and if you have a data allowance, then this is very usable on the site.

A wonderful quiet site & well worth a visit (unless you insist on noisy parties and doing wheelies round the site - in which case why do you head for the countryside!?!). We already have plans in place to return in 2016.

 We had never visited Anglesey so after doing a bit of review checking we decided upon this particular site.

WOW what a find. The views of the sea, the coast, the beach (literally 2mins walk from secure site gate), and the lovely countryside, are all just stunning.

The site was quiet as second week in Sept. They have strict rules regarding noise after 10. 30pm, dogs to be kept on leads and not exercised on site, no entry by car after sundown etc. Some reviewers have complained and written negatively about this. Well it suited us down to the ground. If you are looking to stay up late and have loud noisy parties, or have your dog run free on site then this is not the site for you. On the other hand if you want peace and quiet and a well managed site (the staff are very friendly and helpful) then give this site a visit, you will not be disappointed.

The loos and shower block were absolutely immaculate plenty of hot water and no push buttons. There are porter loo type units in the lower fields which would be useful if you didn't want to walk up to the main facilities in the night.

The fields are slightly sloping as they are heading down to the beach, so take your blocks with you to level your unit, but we did see campers (tents) on some level pitches, the staff are happy to help you manoeuvre onto your pitch. Also do not try to gain access before 2pm on day of arrival as you will not be able to get on site and parking is very limited. If you do happen to arrive early you are advised to wait further down the road at Lligwy beach car park, but we feel that could be a problem when busy.

We have been looking at going back early next season as this has got to be one of our favourite sites.

 This site has some hard standing pitches but mainly grass but don't let that phase you they are all reasonable. It has an adults only field which the one closest to facilities. Showers and toilets are good and clean. No coins required only for hair-dryer and shaver sockets. Wash up and laundry very good. We stayed on middle field which left us short walk to facilities, however each field does have WC's plus in summer showers as well. Also dog wash at beach entrance this was very useful. A fob is provided to give exit from site to beach. You are very close to beach which has cafe at weekends. The views are very good as you are in lligwy bay. 10 amp electric provided and water at pitch. Reception provides some essentials but need to shop elsewhere. Moelfre is nearest has ATM in shop and very pub and cafe in harbour.

 This site is spotlessly clean and the location is superb if you enjoy beautiful coastal walks. The beach is on the doorstep. The friendly wardens are wonderful, offering advice on everything from information on local amenities to helping us plan our sight seeing trips. The local village is approximately half an hour walk, with a great pub, chip shop and basic grocery store. I would not hesitate to recommend this site.

Reviewer: Julie mcginty 2 reviews from this member

 Just got back from a 6night stay. Wow what a fantastic Site the views were amazing. The staff even showed us to the pitch which I thought was nice.

we were on the main field number 8 this was not a bad pitch and a tap right next to us.

When we go back again I would like to be on the left hand side going down

Facing the sea they had a fantastic sea view and was a bit more sheltered from the wind

When they said near the beach they wasn't kidding just around the corner and you are on the beach, even a cafe on the beach you couldn't ask for anything more.

The site is very clean and the pitches are all around the outsides you didn't feel on top of each

Other and nobody facing you, plenty of room.

We have never been to Anglesey before what a beautiful island

Easy to get around and so much to do we will go back to this site

Well positioned near moelfre and other neighbouring little towns.

We didn't want to leave asked to stay another night but was fully booked.

If you want a peaceful locacation next to the beach and have a dog

This is the site our black Labrador loved it on the beach.

We will be back.

Reviewer: Siwil 1 review from this member

 Just back after 5 nights at Dafarn Rhos, what a great site!

The location is fantastic - the beautiful Lligwy Beach is a stones throw away (our pitch was one away from the Beach Gate) and the coastal path runs right past the site, so easy access to Moelfre & the amazing smaller beaches towards Dulas Bay.

The site facilities are excellent, with a clean toilet/shower block and laundry - there are also toilets, showers and pot washes dotted around the site's four fields.

Our fully serviced pitch was very spacious and there was a huge area in the centre of each field which gave the feeling of not being over crowded, and plenty of room for games etc.

The only improvement which could be made would be a better stocked site shop.

All in all Dafarn Rhos is an excellent site and we are sure to return some day.

Reviewer: Vmccar 25 reviews from this member

 Good points about this site as follows:- wonderful situation right on the beach (which has a cafe selling drinks lunch and ice cream). It's a lovely clean beach and quite big so was not too packed when we were there even though the weather was good. You can take your dogs on the beach too. Lovely coastal path walks in either direction. Nice spacious site - big pitches and not packing 'em in. Very clean and well kept site - you would be very happy letting your children play. Large green spaces. Amazing views.

Bad points. At £30 a night and not being able to get on till 2pm and having to leave at 11am we found it poor value for money - particularly as the showers serving some of the fields are portaloos (although the main block isn't). It's quite an exposed spot so windy. Also the leaflet days you can ask for a late check out which we did but were then told this doesn't apply in high season.

Reviewer: Iain Murray 1 review from this member

 Brilliant site, friendly and helpful staff. An absolute gem of a site. Would recommend for couples looking for a nice relaxed trip and also for sea fishing. My little Jack russell loved it and dogs are extremely welcome and must be kept on a lead at all times outside of the tent/caravan. If you can't respect rules or like to be loud and anti-social. Then don't come here. You can have a great holiday here, which we certainly did. Thank you for having us Dafarn Rhos!
