Liked: The perfect wild camping experience. It's wild camping with a tap and a toilet. If you are new too wild camping this is an excellent place to start. Be aware that you need to hike a short distance from the parking area to the camping area. I like this fact as it encourages you to take a lightweight backpacking set up, rather than the whole kitchen sink! The staff are very friendly and helpful. My dog had a great time too! I would be happy to recommend this site to anyone!
Disliked: Nothing to dislike!

Liked: The site is amazing if wanting wild camping, the views were out of this world. The 2 men who shown us where to go and everything were very polite, couldn't hear any of the other campers and they were all close by.

Liked: This place is a gem, I 100% recommend anyone to visit this campsite, pitches are nicely spaced and give you a sense of privacy which was amazing for our doggo as he can sometimes be reactive, we had an incredible spot with an amazing view in the wooded area, the guys who run it are SO lovely, and helped us with getting everything to the pitch, we arrived earlier than we said we would and it was no trouble, toilets were clean, shower was clean, and it gives an amazing wild camping experience with the added bonus of toilet and shower facilities, first day it was sunny then the good old British weather arrived and poured down on day 2 and 3 but the scenery was still stunning. In a good location to go exploring and near to some beautiful walks, not too far from Denbigh either which made getting supplies simple. We will be back for sure next year it’s an incredible spot, heads up when they say no signal they mean no signal and it is glorious!

Liked: Loved everything about the campsite, as it is a wild camping area we get to select spacious pitches that are not close to each other which provides a lot of privacy. All our bags, items and camping gear were taken up to our pitch on a quad bike which makes things very easy. The setting itself in terms of where we pitched is lovely as it gave us scenic views of a reservoir and mountain range (which I assume is Snowdon).The shower and toilet facilities are separately located adjacent to the main building. Also a spring water line is available near the main building. The staff were very friendly and try their best to accommodate our requests. Thank you Grant for all the help given to us with our luggage. Would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to escape their hectic lifestyles and relax in nature.

Liked: Quiet surroundings
Disliked: The pitchup site said it had showers. There were no showers. The man who showed us round casually and unapologetically said ‘oh, if you’re here all week then there might be showers before the end of the week.’ He offered no alternative solution and didn’t show us inside the toilets, where there was hand sanitiser but no sink. There is nowhere to wash up, clean your teeth, wash your hands or the rest of you. This would have been fine if it was what we were expecting so we could have come prepared, or just booked something else. The site is also on a steep hillside which was extremely muddy and there was hardly any level ground for pitching. Dogs and children seem to be allowed, contrary to the information online. The two dogs that live at the house barked incessantly. We lasted two nights and moved elsewhere.

From the manager: Oh dear I think you just chose the wrong place to visit we consistently have 10/10 reviews. Also I know for a fact you were offered the use of the shower in the house but as I said Wild Camping just was the wrong choice for you., Also the shower is available and perhaps you should have spoken with us and we would have done our best to make you happy.
Hosts were excellent, extremely helpful and informative. Campsite was brilliant, you…

Liked: Hosts were excellent, extremely helpful and informative. Campsite was brilliant, you could choose your pitch and there was a lot of variety, from completely open on the hilltop to sheltered under a load of trees. The views of Snowdonia you get from some parts are breath-taking. There is a lot to do in the area, amazing nature reserves and walking trails with a lot of wildlife. We took our own shower but the one there was working towards the end of the stay anyway. The car park being away from the campsite was nice as there were very few disturbances and it really felt like you were alone in the middle of nowhere. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back!
Disliked: The only thing I can think of to criticise are the potholes in the road to the car park, but they're easy enough to get over if you drive slowly
