Great place great staff

Williamson, Martin - 02/07/2026

Lovely place well maintained and staff was great. No issues at all so no cons. Having access to the water without having to drive is great for paddle boarding with a pump at the water to assist is a great thing.

Beautiful place , spotlessly clean facilities. Quiet family atmosphere. Perfect for the lake access. Each year we have been there are improvements. This year I noticed the flower displays, tree lights , and newly refurbished toilet cubicles.

Beautiful campsite on the lake

Holtam, Michael - 01/07/2026

5

Stayed here for the first time , very good campsite we were very close to the lake which was great for our daughter who paddleboards, you have to have a pass which is £5 per day or £20 for the week but this helps towards upkeep of the surrounding area . The facilities were always clean and a bonus was that they were always open as they could lock off one half for cleaning then do the other side, the staff were very helpful and always pleasant and the shop was good for basic necessities , as it was hot when we were there being able to get ice cream in the shop was a bonus.There is a bus stop outside the campsite and a timetable for this is shown in the shop window, we used it a few times to to Bala and it was always on time, in Bala there is a nice mixture of shops and a lovely antique shop in the old church , there is also a railway which goes around the lake.

Busy family campsite

Giles, Terry - 01/07/2026

Ok but we would not return as this is not our kind of campsite. The site was packed with very little space between everyone. Children were playing ball games by the van and it was very noisy untill late. Probably a very nice campsite for families but not for us.

First impression was good

Heydon, Jerad - 30/06/2026

First impression was good but where I was told to pitch tent next to hedge and river was unbearable because of gnats. I got eaten alive morning and night , had to eat out and just come back to sleep. Also way too many barking dogs but site facilities are great and very clean
