Reviewer: KatieTomHulse 1 review from this member

 We arrived at the site at 11. 30, greeted by a lovely friendly lady who informed us that our pitch was only available at 13. 00pm. However, our pitch that was allocated was free and we allowed to set up the caravan. We were given a sheet of rules and regulations of the site.

The site was fantastic. We had stayed previously before camping, and wanted to experience the site again in our caravan. There are toilets and showers both very clean, and even had little touches such as the fresh flowers. Even old photos of the site 'back in the day'.

The only thing that was a let down was the the amount of litter on the field. I actually witnessed one camper drop there litter on the floor.

Thankyou also for the sausages! We bought home sausages in the Pork, Leek and Stilton flavour. Beautiful together with some mash!

Tesco 5 mins away and excellent location if you want to travel and experience North Wales!

Thankyou again Manorfan farm! We will be back!

PS hope the piglets were born safe and sound!

 Fabulous time at this site. It's clean and friendly and very well maintained. It's right on the doorstep to many tourist sites and the view is amazing.

The toilet block is clean and although the site was fairly busy, the cleanliness didn't drop. The only thing this site could benefit from is a few more electric hook up points and a small kids play park.

 A jewel in Abergele. PERFECT family site. Veiws breathtaking. Countryside one way. The seaside the other way. The owners were very friendly and nothing seemed a problem to them both very helpful two examples very heavy rain one night a young couple got flooded out in a small tent saw the owner helping them set another tent up for them at 9 pm. Tumble dry had a problem one night and the owner was letting people use there own personal dryer (fixed next morning) little touches like this makes a great campsite. Toilets/showers spotless fresh flowers in the loo's lovely touch. Good size pitches lots of space round them. Grounds were really well maintained grass cut every couple of days. Large Tescos five minute walk. Couple of nice local pubs especially George and Dragon. People very friendly. Cant find anything to be negative about this lovely campsite. Would recommend it to everyone.

 Fantastic campsite - we all loved our weeks stay here. Lovely large tent pitch, close to amenities, lots of chickens and rabbits wandering by our tent which we all loved. Our 2 sons loved walking to see the animals and going to feed them in the mornings. Would definitely recommend this campsite to anybody, if I had to find something negative it would be to make the shower and dish wash temperature a couple of degrees higher, other than that it was perfect - well done !

 What's not to like about Manorafon.

Everything needed for our weekend was super.

Toilets - plenty & always clean

Showers - always clean & free

Grounds - well maintanined

Owners - Very welcoming, always around on the site if you needed them or you can call their mobile anytime.

Hardstanding or grass pitches were of great size.

What lets this site down is other users, allowing their children to walk through peoples pitches or kick the football.

How can the owners of the site be blamed for this. It's the parents. I overheard a parent saying to his children the rules & laughed as their children had broke everyone.

I will always come back to this site, location, value, make this site a gem of a visit.

 We recently camped at Manorafon for 6 nights and we really cannot fault the site.

We were given a choice of pitches on arrival as we were not requiring hook up, we pitched on a slight slope but it gave us a good view of the sea (there was a flat pitch available should we have wanted it).

The showers were always hot, and I never had to queue for a shower, even in the morning. The washing up area was under cover and handy, facilities always clean and the site was well kept. It is also really helpful having the freezer, BUT, we did have all of our ice blocks stolen by somebody and judging by a note left in the freezer, someone else did. It was our own fault in a way, as we put them in a generic carrier bag and hadn't made our name label clear enough so our tip would be put your freezer blocks in something distinctive and CLEARLY label every single block.

The site is a brilliant base for exploring North Wales, 10-15min drive to Llandudno, 15-20min drive to Conwy, 30-35 to Betws-y-Coed, 45 to Snowdon and 40-45ish to Anglesey.

 We stayed at this site in August last year. 1 There were four adults, a 10 and a 2 year old. We loved the site. Beautiful surroundings, exceptionally clean, peaceful and well equipped. The site is very near to the town centre. There is no bar on site but we had BBQ's every night anyway and as it's near to the centre its not far to walk if you do want to go to any bars. Will definitely be visiting again.

 I have just had a wonderful week at manorafon farm. It was very near to the town and a large tesco which we used regular. The facilities were clean however when we used the dryer it didn't dry our clothes. Luckily we had nice weather to dry our washing. The shops were near by in the town and there is a selection of family pubs around. The children enjoyed themselves however there could of been a park or something for them to play on but we bought footballs and took them to see the animals to entertain them however they still enjoyed theirselves by making their own fun.

 This was my 4th visit to this site we love it here, the site seems to improve everytime we visit the owners have put a lot of work in, heard a few campers saying there wasn't enough showers, there are only 2 in the ladies and 2 for men could be a couple more but we went at peak time and never had to wait for showers/toilets, fab location close to the shops, pubs etc, my little boy loved the farm animals no complaints from me will definitely be returning

 Just returned from manorafon farm. First impressions were the entrance road needed the pot holes sorting out, the goat paddock full of ragwort also should have been dealt with weeks ago (ragwort kills livestock).

After being given the site rules and told where our pitch was. The site looked over crowded with tents close together. Facilities fell below what we expected ie only 2 male and 2 female showers for nearly 100 pitches, only Luke warm water made pot washing hard work. But on a positive point the view of the castle and sea are great. Tesco is less than 5 minute walk away, the a55 is far enough away not to be noticed but makes it easy to access the north wales Coast.

Being next to a golf course we should have expected the tractor mowers cutting the grass at 6am every morning. If that's not bad enough letting someone in to start to set a tent up well past 10 at night which went on till after 11. 30pm. A good nights sleep while on holiday isn't a lot to ask.

The rules are not worth the paper they are written on. Kids running around my motorhome with large bits of wood, dogs not on leads even outside owners house meant dog muck not being picked up. Hard footballs being kicked near other peoples caravans and tents etc etc. We won't being going back.

 Fantastic caravan/motorhome/tent park.

Owners are so lovely & always find the time to chat to us, nothing is too much trouble.

The pitches are large, hard standing or grass.

Each time you go the owners have improved the site even more.

Farm produce on sale for bbq's.

Tesco & town shopping only couple of minutes walk.

Location is central to lots of site seeing.

The castle on site make it a wonderful back drop to the sunny evenings.

Toilets are always clean & tidy even on the busy bank holiday period, fresh flowers are a lovely touch.

2 showers and always one available every time I went.

Disable toilet is a bonus for my husband.

Very easy to find and if you go through the castle arch it feels very magical.

Lots of farm animals to amuse the family.

The only down side is you have to leave to come home again.

 We arrived and went to find the the lady who runs the site she handed me an information sheet which contained information about the site, local area and the site rules, the sheet was an absolute waste of time because many of the other campers on the site either did not read the sheet or choose to ignore the rules, especially the one about walking and running in between pitches, the 6 yard gap between units was not enforced either and some tents and caravans were squashed together.

We were situated across from the amenities block and other campers thought it acceptable to walk through our pitch as a short cut.

The lack of a children's play area means children were running between pitches and kicking footballs really high. A fence or laurel bushes between the pitches would stop this.

After our arrival I never saw the lady who runs the site again and only saw her husband once who did not acknowledge us. This something I am not used to experiencing on small family run sites.

The facilities were adequate and could have been better, the missing lock in one of the toilets in the ladies is a small job that could easily be fixed, and the broken shelf in one of the ladies showers again would not been time consuming to replace or fix.

The owners claim to be proud of the recycling at the site but I saw no evidence of this and the overflowing bins were not a attractive experience especially in the summer heat. There were no recycling bins for us to separate our rubbish into.

The petting farm consisted of a few goats and was a disappointment for our children. It is not as it appears on the website.

The walk from the site up to the ruins of the castle was a nice walk and one we took our dogs on regularly.

On the Saturday evening we were kept awake until well after 12 midnight by loud music coming from the Club House of the adjacent Golf Course. A couple who were staying at the site complained to us that they had been woken up at 6. 00am by Golfers Teeing off, as their Caravan backed onto the first hole of the Golf Course. There was also noise from the lawnmowers

Abergele itself is a small town with a good range of shops and Tesco is now a familiar sight in many small towns.

The beach at Abergele is nice and there is a small amusement arcade and places to buy snacks and ice creams, it is free to park here which is a bonus.

The camp site is easy to find from the A55 and is in a good location to explore the North Wales coast and countryside.

I will not be returning to this campsite.

 Just got back from spending a night here. The site was fantastic and we'd definitely come back here. It's very clean and modern and the facilities were just as impressive! Toilet block was clean and modern. Dish wash area was easily accessible and although it took us a while to discover where to get clean drinking water from, we managed to find it with the help from other campers. The area was brilliant for exploring and there was plenty to see and do nearby.

 We used this site for our Sunday to Wednesday break. On arrival we were given the option of pitches available, very clean site toilets were clean and tidy and they are free, easy access by two entrances to the site. No shop on the site but there's a tesco just in the town 15 minutes if you walked. We walked down to the nearest beach 30 minutes it took us, and you can drive there and park right next to the beach. We will use the site again and will be taking our grandchildren

 Just left the camp after spending 4 days there cant give it enough praise from the owners who are very nice and informative, *& the toilet block with showers with hot water and very clean, the pitches are very spacious and well kept, the tame animals are a joy for the kids 10mins from Abergele and a tesco store same to towyn and its amenities and the sea, the castle ruins just up the lane and a great golf cause
