A fantastic site set on the edge of the lake. we received a very warm welcome and given a choice of pitches. The facilities are excellent and always spotless. The shop is well stocked although we didn’t need to buy anything on this occasion. We will definitely be returning.

Bala Friends Camping Weekend

Taylor, Louise - 21/07/2024

We arrived at the campsite and was meet by the team who went out of the way to find a pitch for our tent, camper van and motorhome. All the team are really friendly and helpful. The site is lovely and clean. Lots of lovely hot showers and space for the kids to run round. The dog field is small but our greyhound managed to get some zoomies in there and loved meeting the other dogs. The lake is amazing, lots of space to launch your boat and the view is spectacular. Can't recommend enough.

Lovely well maintained site, run by extremely friendly and hard working staff. If anything the site was a bit busy for us over the weekend - but that’s just a personal thing. Toilet/shower blocks were immaculately kept at all times. Great location on the lake side for swimming, paddle boarding etc. Easy cycle ride into Bala and around the lake itself.
