 We visited this site last year and more recently visited it last week. We found the facilities to be functional, not exactly plush but adequate. In a previous review someone mentioned it was perfect for people who like to "rough it" and I couldn't agree with that more.
The road running along side the camp field can be noisy but if you don't mind hearing quiet traffic it's fine.
Good points:
The owner/site manager is very friendly and accomodating.
The site is dog friendly (if you like dogs)
The Abbey is pretty (if you like that kind of thing)
Bad points:
Can be noisy at night with drunken people (not us.hic)
Kids play by the river (if you don't like kids camp away from it!)

What can I say? Carling don't make campsites, if they did this would be the best campsite in the world.Probably.
Can't understand other reviews concerning facilities and noise. It was our second time camping here and it has everything and nothing, that is what camping is all about. I would recommend this camping site to Jesus himself only I haven't met him personally.
The valley is outstandingly beautiful in it's views. The abbey gives it a sense of history and has withstood numerous attacks, I'm sure a few teenage kids won't endanger it any further.
Our congratulations to the keepers of this fine campsite. My children will not allow me to go anywhere else.See you soon.

We arrived on the Saturday of August Bank Holiday weekend without booking and they were able to fit us in, directing us to a field with plenty of space & cow pats! We were close to the newer toilet blocks which were closed from 8.30pm til 7am! This meant we had to use the older toilet block at night which seemed to be the local hangout for the camp teenagers! There was a man trying to keep both toilet blocks clean but as it was a rather wet weekend and people were putting their filthy trainers on the sink whilst waiting for a shower he was fighting a loosing battle! There were only 3 showers in the new block and they worked fine until someone went into one of the other showers then the water trickled out! I had trouble showering my 3 year old also as the cubicles were so small but he was not strong enough to hold the shower on himself. There was also no hot water for washing up. The only fresh water tap was next to the toilet disposal which we thought was not very hygenic.
I understand that we were there at one of the most busy weekends and other peoples actions have nothing to do with the owners-like the crowd of teenagers who woke us up at 2am shouting while their parents jeered them on! But we had to read and sign a list of rules on arrival so think these rules should have been adhered to,
They outlook of this sight was lovely with the abbey ruins in the background and a 25 minute walk along the canal took you to the town.

I have stayed there several times over the last couple of years and have enjoyed a peaceful site which is very attractive with the ruined abbey in the middle of it which is very majestic looking when the sun is setting. The local pub is very friendly, but take a torch no lights on the way home.
They have new shower/toilet facilities this year on site for the campers in tents so it has improved greatly and the meat there in the shop is local and very tasty. There is a play area for the children but they seem to love the little stream that runs at the bottom of the site ideal for paddling and jumping in and near to the tents so you can keep an eye on your children. The wildlife and birds are abundant and the surrounding area is great for walking and climbing.
They have a separate caravan park so not mixed with the tents, and electrical hook ups although we don't use them as the countryside round there is too wonderful to miss at any time of the day or night.

We thought this would be a nice site to camp on.The first night was very enjoyable as was the next day, visited the local country fair in the next field. Then it all started to go downhill at 11:30pm. Lots of shouting in lane behind the field and then by the camping electric hook up field. This was definitely not the family site that we where lead to believe.

The field was nice and very cheap. The picturesque view of the abbey was lovely and also has a nice stream running by. The people were very nice but the facilities could do with being a bit better. Cold water in the showers and they wasn't very clean, hair in the bottom of the showers and 1 toilet wasn't working. There was a rubbish skip by the toilets and it was overflowing when we got there on the friday and even worse when we left on the monday. Could do with being emptied more regular and could do with a bit more care and attention.
I will visit again hope its better next time. If it was better I would go there all the time.

Went back again for a weekend, can't fault it at all. Me and my girlfriend are 20 and 21 and had plenty to do. Great stream and everything is there you need. Showers are fine and cheap enough at only £18 for both of us for 2 nights. All in all excellent highly reccomended looking to go back this weekend.

Visited site on saturday 12 June, Great location, pricewise we paid £13.50. The toilets were not very clean and the noise level at 1.30am was very loud. We feel we were let down by the management as on entering the site there is a sign saying families and couples only.

Location of this site is excellent, situated right next to the old abbey, a ten minute walk to the local pub (which also had entertainment)nice flat pitches, a stream running closeby, situated at the bottom of the horseshoe pass and only 1/2 hour stroll into the town, and cheap too!
However it did have one big down fall. The showers and toilet block, in the tent field although the toilets were basic, the showers were totally unusable (the "block" looked like an old disused porto cabin) there was no hot water what-so-ever to either toilet block, washing up sinks or showers(not sure if these had any water at all). Although the caravan field did have a separate block which had hot water, these were quite small with only three showers for the whole of the site, the one I used was little more than a dripping tap.
Fortunatly we had excellent weather the week-end we stayed which made things a little easier.
This is a shame as generally it is a good site in an excellent location and we would love to stop there again.

My first trip to the site. It was quite busy as it was a good weekend for weather. We found a pitch close to the river. It was very pleasant.
New toilet block. Which needed to be cleaned more than once in the weekend due to amount of people on site,
We had a very noisy lot near to us who kept us awake most of the first night. But they were soon moved off the site on Saturday morning. And we had a very pleasant weekend after that.
I would certainly come back as It was a lovely site in a lovely location. Try the minted lamb burgers from the farm shop on site. Very nice !

This was our first time camping and our little boy was very nervous.
This site has a fantastic location next to the Abbey and river, but the facilities were a bit basic and the toilet block could have done with cleaning a bit more often.
The owner was very friendly and the shop and pub were convenient.
Will definitely be back

Pitches were a bit on the small side. Toilets, not very clean and if you go towards the end of the day take your own loo roll. Showers are VERY hot in the morning FREEZING in the evening.
It was an OK site, but that's it.
Its close to Llangollen, which is good as Llangollen is a really nice place. The tent pitches were pretty water logged but they still had people on them.

Very picturesque location about 30' walk from Llangollen town centre. Very reasonably priced (£12 per night for 2 adults, a child and a car) but very basic. The toilet block is a little shabby but the showers are free. A stream runs close by and has a children play area next to it (swings, climbing frames etc).
It is situated right next to the Valle Crucis Abbey which can provide some night time amusement (v.spooky). Of a day there are a few footpaths nearby with some basic walks to do.
I would thoroughly recommend this site to anyone (though I only stayed for two nights).

Myself, and 3 of my friends went to this campsite. The staff were very helpful, and the owner was very polite. Is located next to abbey crucis. This is a quiet place, with a stream which runs along side the camp. Although the facilities were basic, we had a really good time.

Came on the Friday and went on the Sunday, although they were a bit hesitant at first to let us stay with it being just 2 girls they let us and we had a really pleasent stay.
We will be definitely coming back as soon as and as often as we can.
The site is situated in a gorgeous location with lovely views and a nice pub only 2 minutes walk that serves fresh food.
The facilities on site are basic but do the job there intended to do although we thought there would be electric in the toilet block so we brought our straightners only to find that we could not use them.
