 Great campsite & brilliant find, I would highly recommend!

I had my campervan with a small dog and a friend had booked one of the Shepherds huts and they were pleased too.

Facilities good and were very clean and showers hot whenever used. There were nice personal touches too.

I will be returning in the warmer nicer weather.

 This site is very well organised. We stayed in our camper, but where tempted by the Yurts in the woods, or even the wild camping at the bottom of the hill.

The owners are present but not in your face.

There is an easy 7. 5 mile (ish) round walk into Barmouth and back.

Which is great.

Well worth a visit.

 Great place been here a couple of times and never disappoints.

The pitch had a lovely view and if your into walking you can drop straight on to the trail that goes to Barmouth or into the local town.

Reviewer: Booketta 74 reviews from this member

 We chose this site for views of the Mawddach estuary and we chose one of the most expensive pitches for the view. However the pitch was small and awkward to get in even for us in our small van.

The pitch was set back as there was grass with picnic tables between us and the estuary. We felt that these pitches with views were not accurately described on the website.

The trail is great for cycling and walking but accessibility with bikes is not good as you have to go down a steep hill through the tent area to get on the trail, the return being quite arduous getting back up. Again, not accurately reflected on the website.

We drove up to the lakes on Cadr Idris but it was wet so we didn't get to walk there.

We walked over the bridge to Barmouth but there are far better places to visit than that seaside town. However, the bridge is worth going over for the views.

It was an expensive campsite with limited facilities. Two toilets for each sex and two showers on the touring section and the campers down the hill had a toilet and shower for them. If busy there would most certainly be a logjam.

Also only one washing up area, you had to wait your turn! If you had somewhere to be that was not good, from all the facilities points of view. Beautiful area.

 A great site site with a lovely view of the estuary.

Facilities were clean. Only 2 showers on top touring part but there wasn't any queues with the times we used them.

A nice walk/hike along the side of estuary at bottom of site, either leads to pub at one end, or Barmouth bridge the other end.

They stock gas and logs, but take along your own food supplies, which didn't bother us as we were out exploring every day and got them on our travels.

Friendly staff and took back great memories.

On way back from estuary be prepared to walk up steep short hill back to touring site at top.

 Stayed for a few nights over New Year.

Excellent site, low key, with good facilities, great location and friendly hosts.

Lots to do in the area even off season. Great place for walking and cycling, with nearby cycle trail into Barmouth / Dolgellau.

 A haven of tranquillity after a non stop Christmas.

Graig went is a family favourite, stunning views, fabulous walks and mountain biking in the area. The night sky was breathtaking.

We are always met with a friendly welcome. The showers are clean and hot and the honesty shop as ever well received, a wonderful site.

Seeing new year in around the fire pit with friends old and new. Can't beat it!

 Graig Wen is beautiful, serene campsite. We enjoyed Panorama Pitch 1 with its spectacular view over the Mawddach Estuary.

Sarah and John are super hosts, they care very much about the area and their guests.

Just down the hill is the Maddach Trail which runs along the very edge of the water and gives breathtaking views almost every 100 yards!

Just over 3 miles away is Penmaenpool and the George III pub. This place is fantastic, the food, location, staff and, well, everything. Its super dog friendly and just very, very well done.

Barmouth is just up the coast with its airport sized beaches and everyone we met was so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We will be going back.

 Solo Women Camping in a Tent.

Graig Wen is a very Safe, Stunning campsite for any women wishing to Camp solo. I have camped there solo for a number of years and it continues to be outstanding in every way!

John and Sarah with their team of staff have created an amazing haven for campers which offers a diverse range of activities, walking, cycling, birdwatching, just adoring the scenery.

Good facilities on site clean facilities, good on site shop where many basics and nice treats may be purchased.

All staff very friendly and happy to assist with anything.

Very friendly campers staying in a variety of accommodation options from - those with their own tents, on site Yurts, Shepherds Hut, motorhomes, campervans, self catering cottages and B & B -

This is an A1 campsite which never fails in providing a truly wonderful experience if you are looking for a campsite in an area outstanding area of beauty!

If you are a solo camper this is a fantastic site!

 It’s been my second year at the site and my partner and I are planning to come back again next year.

Wonderful site, friendly staff, beautiful views and lots to explore.

Facilities are clean and tidy, lots to buy in the shop to keep you going.

One of the best sites I’ve been to.

 Serine campsite this one.

I don't think I've stayed anywhere as chilled, although you don't get quite the same sense up on the top camping area.

As the camp drops down the hill the better it gets. Only downside is the road if your in the top field.

Would stay here again.

 Brilliant facilities and area,

Owners were brilliant and helpful even though our group was big and sometimes loud,

Would come again to this site as I'm sure I didn't see the whole of what was about in the area
