Negativ: Nothing

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you - that is much appreciated.

Positiv: Check in process was quick and easy, an envelope with all of our information was ready and waiting which meant we could pitch up straight away. Facilities were fab, clean, tidy and showers were easy to use. There was a lovely walk down to the estuary which was beautiful at sun set. The pan au chocolate’s for breakfast (£2 each) were a great touch and even better that they were warm when we picked them up! Overall a great stay and am looking forward to staying again!

Negativ: Nothing, everything was great!

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for sharing your experience of staying on our camper van pitches. We look forward to welcoming you back.

Positiv: Toilets were spotless and smelt lovely the views from the 2 pitches over looking the estuary are stunning , I had a flat pitch with hook up easily in reach , shop on site which I had no need to use and you can also buy books and ice cream from a sheltered cabin , steep walk down to the estuary with lots of other camping pitches

Negativ: I disliked the 2 shared showers and that the screens don't go from the floor to the ceiling and I can understand why people wouldn't use them I didn't like the position of the showers as well as I felt as I was on parade walking up the drive past the other accommodation

Positiv: Graig Wen is easy to find. It had all we wanted for an overnight stay. The showers were nice and hot. Arrival was really easy. The van pitch was good level gravel hard standing. Didn't have electric hookup but easily available if needed. Very reasonably priced.

Positiv: I honestly can’t fault Graig Wen! I booked a glamping holiday for my dad’s birthday in late October 2023. It was just him, my dog, and me :) We stayed in the Empress quarry wagon and were so impressed by it! It was so warm, even without the heating on. Having the en suite was an added touch of luxury. We had all we needed kitchen equipment-wise and really appreciated the eco-friendly washing up liquid. I slept on the lower bunk bed which I found to be very comfortable. Overall, the wagon was welcoming, comfy and cosy. We were pleasantly surprised to find a “welcome spread” on the dining table upon arrival. The hosts had left a bottle of apple juice and 6 Welsh cakes with jam, both of which were locally-made! They’d also left a bar of salted caramel chocolate (made in Powys), some dog treats, and a welcome note with specific info for guests with dogs. The online info guide and info left on laminated printouts around the site were so helpful. The walk down to the Mawddach trail was very peaceful and scenic. About halfway down the path is a little uphill side-trail to a beautiful spot on a hill top- the bridge view! Because of the trees it was a bit difficult to see the full bridge but nevertheless a stunning setting for pictures, with a bench for a nice rest to catch your breath. It only took about 1 minute to climb the hill, but was fairly steep. The campsite was so well maintained, and all facilities were clean and tidy. We really liked that there were recycling and waste bins on site, tucked away out of sight but easy to access. Graig Wen was easy to find for us, but if you’re not looking the turning into the drive can sneak up on you a bit. Be sure to keep an eye on your sat nav or screenshot the directions in case you run out of mobile data! I’ll certainly be returning, and recommending Graig Wen to family and friends :)

Negativ: Not necessarily something we disliked but if you are with Vodafone or O2 you likely won’t have any signal on site. There is Wi-Fi available in the lean-to near the quarry wagons, though, and that was fairly strong- as long as you don’t stray too far. However, if you’re like us you’ll appreciate the lack of internet as you can get more engaged with the surroundings and stay present throughout your stay!
