Have just returned from a 5 night stay on this park and I must say I have some mixed views, the toilet block's were cleaned every day but they are not central to the pitches. If you are down the bottom half you have a good walk up a hill every morning or as some people did go in the car. You also have to do this when you need to empty your waste tank and toilet. The bin areas were spread over a wide area. The tv signal is a bit hit and miss, would recommend you purchase a satellite dish or in my case a nice break away from the tv and the soaps ( wife not pleased)! I will stay at this park again as you have some good walks around this area.
The very steep entrance should be enough to turn back, the website looks like a different site. The walk to the pub and play area has to be done to be believed. Plus points is that surrounding area is fantastic, and close to loads of attractions.
We have been visiting this site for over 4 years and stayed altogether 8 times, always in different areas. This is a huge site, but the landscaping makes it feel smaller. Although the grass and hedges are well maintained there is no other investment, in fact we have seen services disappear year after year.
There used to be a restaurant, a shop and a launderette. The pub is neglected and the staff tell tales of under investment and lack of organisation. (ie Phoned 30 mins before the pub opened for the first time that year 'are you working tonight?').
The area around the pub is badly neglected and ornamental fish ponds are now muddy puddles. The outdoor play equipment is over 20 years old and in a very neglected state. This year however a road side trailer has appeared selling bacon & egg butties etc. Don't now how long this will last.
The toilet blocks are ok and free. Hot water is hit and miss, and can be either scorching or freezing. Plenty of loo roll, but no liquid soap. This also applies to dish washing, with no bins to dispose of waste food etc. Bins are open skips which are emptied weekly, allowing seagulls and other vermin to empty the contents of bin bags over the surrounding area.
We have also witnessed the 'tow on - tow off' service they provide for Tourers. I would not like to see my tourer being raced around the site on the back of a tractor driven by a speed hungry teenager. Also, tourers would be left unhitched for up to 4 days before they were collected. Anyone could have driven off with these units.
Depending were you pitch can result in a very different holiday. Bank Holidays are manic. Despite my negative/realistic review, we most probably will visit again as we know what to expect and not expect. And it is good value for money.
We arrived at around 8.00pm on friday evening after being caught up in dreadful traffic on the A55.
Checked in quickly, and issued a pitch in the blue zone.
Unfortunately, no one there seemed to take any notice of the pitch numbers and we had to squeeze between a tent and caravan. Would have asked for a different pitch but, it was getting late and dark, and didn't fancy putting our tent up in the pitch black!
Toilets were okay, pretty clean, showers were free and hot, and dishwashing area was okay too.
Not sure I would go back though, purely down to the clientèle it attracted.
We arrived at the site to be told which pitch we were given, only to find there were tree roots taking over most of it, we phoned reception whom were very helpful and offered us a few alternatives.
The pitches were very well set out with banking and trees/bushes on them you could hear the wind, but not feel it on the tent and set out in a way that it still felt intimate as this is a large site.
The location of the site is approx 20-30 min from conwy by foot (with no footpaths)but very easy by car. There is no shop on site but each pitch has hook up and water points near with toilets and showers close by.
The showers were not the cleanest, maybe its because of lots of campers or not cleaned often enough, but usable. Would I go again? Yes.
We visited this site on our first ever camping trip, the pitches were a good size and nice and level, lots of fresh water points so not far to go. We had electric hook up which was fab. The pub was ok, we have 3 children and they loved the play area and the punch & judy shows.
Toilets and showers were kept very clean and they had a freezer for your ice packs (although it always seemed to contain someone's beer or frozen food despite notices requesting users did not do this)
A great base to explore the area, beautiful views and reasonably priced. We did have to cut short our stay and went home a day early as a large party set up on the next pitch playing loud music until the early hours and continually letting their dog roam free, they pitched their tent so close to ours that their guy ropes were resting on ours, reception weren't much help and nobody patrolled, even in peak season. I would go again though and not let that put us off.
Large site and plenty to see and do, drinks at the club very well priced, however because we were in the purple zone, was quite a trek to the club house. Site on which we were pitched was lovely and quiet, secluded and sheltered but large hill to toilet and showers of which there were only two was somewhat off-putting.
Laundry facilities were very limited for such a large site, two machines of which one was broken and the other wouldn't spin. All that said would go again and worth every penny but would ask for either red, yellow or green to be nearer to all the facilities.
Walking into conwy is ok for adults but for children not good as no pathways and down steep hills there is however a bus that goes by the camp site.
We arrived at the campsite and my husband booked us in we where in the purple area the ground was really stoney and there was no way to get away from that but we did have a new tent and ended up with two holes in the base.
The toilets need updating even though the ladies where ok my husband said the gents where a little less desirable,
The showers were not very big, and anyone with children would have difficulty in showering them in such a small area. The site is huge but needs a lot of tlc not sure if will go again.
We wanted to book another night but the lady said it was already taken and they would not relocate us on such a big site cant believe they did not have any room
We visited conwy touring park after reading the reviews and friends recommending the site.
We were expecting a large field, but the site is set out in sections then into little cul-de-sacs, surrounded by trees. Although initially we thought this was nice, we now know this site is not for us. We camped on purple which was a drag from the club house and main park for the children, which our children enjoyed.
The shower block was tiny which you don't mind as long as it's clean. Unfortunately it wasn't, the toilets were broken, and the showers stank. You could clearly see they hadn't been scrubbed down properly in a while due to the thick black mould and the smell of rotten eggs.
The nearest shop is in Conwy itself, so if you forget anything and you need it in a hurry you really need to drive. The site could really benefit from a shop.
We will revisit the area but we will stay somewhere you can have a shower and feel clean afterwards!
This was our first experience camping as a family and it was really enjoyable. We arrived and checked in with reception and were given instructions to get to our pitch within the red section, the pitch was a nice size and easily accommodated our tunnel tent with porch. We had chosen a 16 amp EHU and this was more than adequate for our needs.
The park is clean and well maintained and the toilet block in the red section was always clean and stocked with loo roll during our stay and the showers were lovely and warm. As others have stated more hooks would be useful in the shower area to keep clothes and towels off the floor. During our stay someone attempted to flush a whole toilet roll in the gents and caused a blockage but this was resolved early the next day.
The site is huge and it was quite a distance from our section to the pub and play areas and we only visited once. The pub is a little dated and the drinks were quite expensive, we had to sit outside as we had a small dog with us, unfortunately children/teens appeared to be unsupervised in this area and we had to listen to them shouting screaming and swearing at one another. I recognise that this is not the the parks fault but it certainly would put me off using the leisure facilities again if we returned.
The local area is beautiful and it is only a short drive to the walled town of Conwy where you can stock up on essentials and try your hand at crabbing from the harbour wall. If you were to head left when you left the park and continue along this road you will be rewarded with the most spectacular views of the estuary and just beyond if you followed the signs for the aquatic centre you would find a little germ of a place, which offers reptiles and fish. In addition to this there is fishing by the day and the dutch pancake house, a small playground, additional attractions included otters, capybara chickens and ducks. Best of all, apart from the fishing it was free.
As a first time camper with 3 little kids, I chose this park as it had good reviews from friends.
We stayed in the green area, which had a little woodland area (the kids thought it was their own forest!)
The toilets where clean and so were the showers, however trying to shower a 4 and 2 year old in the shower cubicles was a bit of a nightmare, not much space.
The showers are powerful, however the hooks where you hang your towel etc was a bit too close to the shower and most of the time the clean clothes/towels got soaked.
Apart from the showers the site was good, the bar/kids play area and park were good too.
The views surrounding the area are breathtaking, I will be going again as the kids loved it!
We visited for one week, but loved the place so much we decided to keep our caravan there for the rest of the season. The pitch we had been given was on 'green' which is actually a seasonal area. Although the site was busy it wasn't overcrowded or jammed in like a lot of sites are in peak times. The site is huge.
Some areas are on one side of the mountain and a substantial 10-15 minutes walk down to the area we were in, which was very close to all the facilities (laundry room, outdoor play area, bar etc).
The facilities in this site are very good. We had a lovely toilet block, with ample sinks on a countertop for washing and plug sockets etc. They were cleaned twice daily. A nice touch is the drying room. Small room with radiator in and hanging pegs, you could use to dry off anything wet, coats etc.
Shower block was a bit more of a walk but not far. Again, plenty of showers for all, never had to wait, and this was August and the block was shared with a nearby camping field. The showers were free (major plus) and were actually too hot on some occasions.
There were sinks here with mirrors and sockets for hairdriers etc. There was a freezer here for freezer packs too. For a site this size the play area was a disappointment. They have it in a huge area, but only 2 swings, a tyre swing and a wire line with tyre. They need to improve this.
The bar was open from early evening on weekend. During the summer holiday they had entertainment on for kids, which was good. Bit repetitive as the same is on every week, but good if your only there a week. The big plus for this site is the indoor play area next to the bar open in the evenings.
They have a large climbing frame (but like a indoor play barn), and a ball tent for little ones. An area off this, just for teens, didn't appear to be in use, maybe no-one interested, although there was someone sat on the door stopping little kids going in. The drinks are reasonable.
The whole bar is looking very shabby and old. Stained tables, ripped seats etc. The patio area outside is overgrown and unloved, hardly anyone sat outside even in the nice weather. This is true for the whole site. It needs a major injection of TLC. Its such a shame because with some improvements the site could be amazing. They really don't offer any service to guests.
They should open a shop. Consider selling food in the bar, they look to have the facilities (old serving hatch, kitchen etc). We would have enjoyed eating a meal on the patio in the summer. Even snacks, cafe food, nothing major. Most people felt this. Sort out the play area. Install a play area on the side of the site nearer the entrance, if you're on the far side of site the play area is way too far away.
The site strikes you as one someone used to look after, but have lost interest. The lady in the office who seems to manage the place volunteered she hates caravans ! Kids loved playing in all the wooded areas and stream, den building etc.
The site is walking distance to town, Just. Although there is no path and the cars drive fast along the road. Pleasant down hill into town, hard walk back, particularly if youre on the other side of the site as that's an extra 15 minutes !
There are loads of amazing days out nearby. Lots of walks, cycle paths, beaches, proms, shops, National Trust places etc. Conwy itself is beautiful. We love it. All in all, if the price was less we'd stay here permanently. For the price they charge for seasonal you really need to upgrade the site and provide better services as outlined. For a weeks holiday, be very hard to beat.
Having looked at a lot of sites in north Wales, we decided to book at Conwy touring park. Checking in was easy we were given the gate code and map. Upon arrival at our pitch blue area g15 and h14, very nice slightly uphill pitch but ok. The view from behind the trees was an amazing view of the estuary. After pitching we explored the site a bit, the only let downs (apart from weather) was the lack of freezers for your ice blocks, we only found 1 freezer near the red section. Also my wife struggled to find a socket for her hair drier. Overall a nice site
Echoing other users this is a very large site but it is well laid out and doesn't feel like it.
The pitches are a good size and not on top of each other. Several were waterlogged, though the rain was very heavy! There were lots of people on the site - though it didn't feel overcrowded - late at night though it was a bit noisy (at 3am some party / shrieking could be heard). I did see some uniformed security staff patrolling at night though.
The roadways on the site are very rough and bumpy - suffering from some nasty pot holes (along with the rest of the UK) which to their credit they are currently patching.
The toilet and shower blocks are dotted about - the gents nearest us was dirty on several occasions (some people are animals) and two out of the three cubicles had not got locking doors. One of the loos refused to flush.
The showers have one long channel draining all the way through the line of cubicles - make sure you are in the first one if you don't want everyone elses water floating past you!
The ladies facilities were cleaner and working properly - though take your own loo roll as there was not much to be had and no soap
There did not appear to be anywhere at all to dispose of grey waste water - people just dumped it on the pitches / in bushes - nice.
The children's outdoor play area was weedy, the sand pit base to the equipment full of wood and the equipment itself seemed to have been mended with offcuts of timber - sharp edges and screws sticking out - not great for little ones really.
There is a fish pond in the kiddies area - fenced off - with a rickety fence - not a good idea in my view.
The bar was pleasant (not usually our kind of thing) but reasonable prices and very pleasant staff - not at all 'club' ish.
If you have onboard facilities it is in a nice spot, with some cracking views and plenty of walking areas. It is also handy for Conwy, Llandudno etc
This is an enormous site and the facilities are fine, plenty of them and well maintained.
The pub etc is a little tired and there are lots of not very well controlled kids running around - this is not the fault of the site however but of the neglectful parents who just want to sit in the pub.
For us, the site is too big and too busy but we prefer smaller sites. It is very conveniently situated for exploring Conwy and the surrounding area.
