 Stayed Easter 2025. Right next to Lake Bala so great if you love kayaking or paddle boarding.

Was very busy and I felt a bit crammed in due to all the other units around, but the washrooms never seemed too busy and were immaculately clean whenever I went in

 Great site by the lake,

We had a pitch right on the beach looking onto the lake, and on EHU,

Toilet/shower block very clean,

Great place for water sports & fishing.

Reviewer: Sonyae 1 review from this member

 Lovely site with lake and mountain views.

Very quiet and peaceful which was perfect for us.

We asked for a pitch near the lake so had fantastic views in the evening.

We didn’t use the toilets / showers so can’t comment on them.

Reviewer: Crazy Maisie 68 reviews from this member

 Lovely location with views of the lake at one end of the site with access to the lake for sports and swimmers.

A bus stop outside the site will take you to Bala and beyond or Dolgellau in the other direction.

The facilities, spread over 3 blocks are excellent and kept spotlessly clean.

It's just a pity they are on one side of the site making it a long walk for some as it's a very big site with a vast mix of grass and hardstanding pitches.

A little shop providing basics is open for short spells during the day.

Reviewer: MarkGlenn 8 reviews from this member

 Generously sized site, on the shoreline of Lake Bala and on the main road into the town of Bala.

Lots of space even though there were 100's of units there.

We learned to paddleboard there and the watersports were enjoyed by almost everyone there.

But the dogwalk area is extremely underwhelming - a small fenced off area next to the main entrance and road.

The walk to Bala is about an hour alongside the main road, & there is a bus.

On site shop poor.

Reviewer: Clara II 1 review from this member

 Well planned out site with each pitch being given a generous space. Grass was well cut and the site was pristine clean.

Shower facilities and toilets were immaculately clean. Superb hot showers.

Simple rule guidelines for noise, music etc

Friendly and helpful Staff both on site and when contacting by phone. Kindly swapped a night for me as I couldn't stay on the pre-planned Saturday night but managed to arrive a day earlier.

Will revisit this site as its the peaceful and the perfect location on the lakeshore having direct access for swimming, paddle boarding, canoeing etc.

 Quiet site but very busy at the weekends

If you had a hard stand you get more room overall

Campsite very good

Views of the lake and mountains

Shop could have been open longer in quiet times

Reviewer: Davidalderson 6 reviews from this member

 Large mainly flat area, some hard standing. Access to lake. Many using paddle boards or canoes.

Small shop for essentials. Narrow gauge railway nearby was fun.

Bala nearest town for shopping. Not cheap but co-op and spar have most covered.

Don't get injured. Nearest hospital a long drive away.

Peaceful place.

 This campsite is great, we stayed in a roof tent on the bank of the river, overlooking such a beautiful spot.

Toilet and shower blocks were spotless.

We will definitely be back.

Reviewer: Ianhu7 1 review from this member

 Beautiful site with immediate lakeside access.

Immaculate shower, toilet and washing/laundry facilities.

Great little shop at reception offering everything you need.

Peaceful site which is perfect for travellers wanting to kayak, paddleboard or just splash about in the lake.

Bala only an 8 minute drive and loads of reasonably priced places to shop and eat.

We thoroughly recommend this site and will hopefully be visiting again soon
