Beautiful location, clean and well looked after site. Friendly and helpful staff. Great customer service, we broke down en route and not able to make our original dates and they were kind enough to allow us to re-book later in the year with no additional cost.

Great location, views and clean facilities

Paterson, Helen - 12/05/2026

4

We were lucky to arrive just after a Bank hol so site was almost empty and had full choice of hard standing pitches. Not sure I would want to be there when busy as some pitches were definitely not the recommended 6 metres apart, pitch 13, 14 and 15 for example.Toilet and shower blocks were clean but cold.The shop is well stocked with a wide range of items, Megan was helpful with advice and information.We used the good local bus which stops right outside campsite when requested to go into Bala.
