Date of Visit: May 2007 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Bashersbatey 4 reviews from this member

 Stayed her 1st May Bank Holiday weekend for 4 days. It was extremely clean and the owners extremely nice. Our pitch was extremely flat and well sheltered. The views breathtaking! In the tent fields the pitches are set in a circle on the outside of the field and they are huge! They do not cram you all in one place! A little more expensive then other places but well worth it. Quiet, relaxing and roomy! A wonderful time was had by all. Even rain on the last day did not put us off as the facilities, though a little dated was clean and always available. Oh, and you do have to pay 20p for hot water for showers and dish washing but we were not bothered. We hope to go back next May Bank Holiday.

Reviewer: Kray 1 review from this member

 We stayed at Yr Helyg during August and had an absolutely wonderful time. On our arrival we were greeted with a warm welcome by Anna & Miles the owners. We were shown out pitch, given a clear guide to the site amenities and then were left to unwind and have a cup of tea before having to settle our bill.

The site was immaculate. The views breath taking. The grass and flower beds are all kept to an impeccable standard. The pitches are level with a 16 amp hook up and TV point, which we have not come across before. In particular we liked the fact that there was a separate fridge/freezer to store our shopping goods in - free of charge. Even a television in the summerhouse.

The toilet blocks were kept clean to a very high standard. These are equipped with plenty of showers/wc sockets for hairdryers, and not once did we have to queue for the use of anything - even though we were staying in the middle of August.

Showers were 20p operated, 60p was ample for a good shower. We have in the past had to pay a pound plus on some sites.

Even though we had a torrential downpour mid holiday our pitch remained perfectly dry throughout the week.

We recommend and will definitely be going again.

Anna was expecting a baby any day when we had to leave, we hope on our return to see the baby!

 The site looked very busy when we arrived, with only about 5 pitches vacant. We gained a pitch at the bottom of the field, which was fortunate as the wind blew a hoolly and the rain tap-danced for hours on the roof. We had good shelter from the weather, but it means we lost the views.
 
All pitches are grassy and the site itself is gently sloping. Although we were pretty level, I'm not sure they have many like that; most seemed to slope and chocks would probably normally be required by motor homes. In fact, all occupied pitches were taken by caravans and to our disappointment, not one was being used. They must be seasonal, one of my pet hates on a tourer's site. So we had the place to ourselves.
 
The owners maintain the grounds beautifully. Everything about the appearance was welcoming and attractive, from buildings to plant life.
 
The shower blocks were disappointing. The facilities are housed in two Portakabins. They were clean enough, but the shower was 20p for 2 minutes! We weren't told this when we arrived so I found out too late. My sole 20p disappeared into the slot, there was a dull "phut" and by the time I'd gathered my wits, the timer cut me off without a single drop of water. The floor had plenty of water though - I think the roof must leak when the rains come.
 
A couple of other little niggles commensurate with me being a grumpy old man - like a bolt missing on the toilet I chose to use, mildew on the shower curtain, a muddy pitch where grass had died off through ground sheets being used and a little pricey for an off-peak night.
 
The couple who run it are delightful. Anna had a very young baby strapped to her chest when we arrived, so perhaps we should make more allowances. It's a lovely camp site and we'd recommend it.

 Spent a couple of nights here, lovely site, loos and showers very clean. Really quiet and away from it all, amazing views. The couple who own the site are very helpful, and after a really windy wild night they came round to check if everyone was ok, which has never happened at any other site to us. The nearest pub The Ship does great food. There are plenty of great beaches just a drive away.

 Just arrived back from a lovely weekend staying at The Willows.  The site is beautifully kept, lawns freshly mowed and all very flat.  The toilets and showers were spotlessly clean and the owners couldn't have been more helpful, even lending us their OS map and showing us some good tourist spots to visit. The local pub, The Ship, is just down the road and served good home cooked food in big portions at very reasonable prices. Will definitely be visiting again.

Reviewer: Cate and peter 1 review from this member

 Just arrived back from our month at Yr Helig. We found Miles and Anna(new owners) to be very helpful,friendly and they were very informative about the local area. The site is well presented beautifully landscaped, maintained and the ground level.

The facilities are spotless and the radio playng in the toilet/shower block a bonus. If you timed it right you keep up with world events and even Glastonbury festival, ha-ha.

Yr Helig is a quiet peaceful site and can be recommended for a tranquil stay but close to a variety of activities.

We won't hesite to return, highly recommended. All we need now is a Yr Helig t-shirt!

 Very friendly staff who couldn't do enough to make our stay any better. Clean site with wonderful sea views.

Site was queit in terms of tents during our stay, so we were able to use the showers/toilets provided for the caravans which were cleaned regularly and well equiped; plug point for hairdryer, handsoap,loo roll, very decent standard. Similar wc facilities due soon for campers.

Beach is only short drive away and lovely family pub is situated 10 minutes walk down hill, with beer garden for kids. Will definietely come back.

Stayed here over the Whit weekend in our Diablo 600 with wife and two kids. We initially chose this site because the new owners, Anna and Miles, were the only ones who were friendly or helpful during calls to a dozen sites in the area. Glad to say this attitude prevailed throughout our five night stay.

The camping pitches are perfectly flat and we had ample room for the slightly large Diablo. Tents are only pitched around the perimeters of the two fields so even when full there would be loads of open space.
The facilities are a bit old but were kept clean during a busy period, and I believe a brand new block is on the way soon. In conclusion:

Pro's : Good customer service, flat, spacious,clean, great views, decent local shop.
Con's : erm.....not keen on Radio2 being played in the showers, more of a Radio1 man personally.
Will definitely go again.
