We chose this site after recommendations from a friend and it has certainly lived up to expectations.
The site is nice and clean and that pitches are marked out and well spaced. The toilet blocks are always clean, there's always toilet paper available and as already mentioned, the water is just the right temperature in the showers.
I would definitely recommend this site for anyone who wanted a family holiday. The site is very family friendly, the owners are wonderful (especially with the inclement weather we just had) and I have nothing but praise for them.

Situated about a mile and a half east of Criccieth and 3 miles west of Porthmadog, this 11 acre site is spread over 3 stepped levels & accommodates around 145 units. We stayed on the top level overlooking the rest of the camp site with a glimpse of the bay & splendid views of the mountains on two other sides. Immediately behind the tent was a field with grazing sheep & cows.
The site is well organized with clearly numbered pitches & many are separated by man-made grassy mounds, adding a little privacy & marking "territory". Our frame tent fitted perfectly in its allotted space with plenty of room in front for tables, chairs & windbreak etc.
Pitches elsewhere on the site cater for wider tents. The ground is a little stoney beneath the surface, so good sturdy pegs are necessary. It can get a little windy on the top field, so make sure everything is well pegged down.
Pitches are generally very level. In 2004 the proprietors built a new wash block consisting of 6 unisex cubicles. 4 of these have toilets & a washbasin, & the other 2 have toilets, washbasins & shower (one offering facilities for the disabled). Another wash block in the lower field has more cubicles, wash sinks & showers, as well as a laundry room & dish washing facilities. Its a bit of a trek from the top field to wash your dishes though. Showers are 20p for 4 minutes & kept very clean.
As with most good sites, it can become a little crowded during peak periods, but an entry barrier that is locked overnight helps to curb some of the late night noise. A small shop on-site is open for a few hours each day, stocking the essentials.
There's a good sized camping shop just before you reach Porthmadog, in case you forgot to pack anything, and next door to this is a Kwik-Save supermarket. In Porthmadog itself there is a Co-op & a large Tesco.
As well as the views, the big selling point of this site is the friendliness of the proprietors, which is second to none of all of the sites we have stayed at, & they obviously take great pride in their business.
As well as the beach at Criccieth, Black Rock Sands (Porthmadog) boasts a fine beach, particularly when the tide is out, and you can park your car right on the sand for £2 a day. A visit to nearby Portmeirion (filming location of the Sixties TV series "The Prisoner") is a must, especially on a good-weather day.

It was our first camping trip so we studied all the reviews and thought that Eisteddfa would offer what we were looking for. We were not disappointed the toilets and showers were clean though there was often a long queue for the unisex/family showers, these are useful with a young family every one can go into together. The views were stunning especially from the top of the site. the site is well run and any little problems were soon sorted out. we would definately go there again.

Excellent site! Well set out so that even though the site is on a hill all of the pitches are level! Well run, very clean toilet blocks, and great showers (20p but nice and hot). Site went quiet by 11pm, so great for kids. Owners were very helpful and always on hand.
Congratulations for a great site.
NOTE: Open fires are NOT allowed during the summer holidays.

SUPERB! Probably the cleanest toilet blocks and facilities in the UK! Drew is very helpful and is mostly always on hand for a quick chat and makes everyone welcome. We wholeheartedly recommend this site if your in the North West of Wales. You'll find a pitch, all clearly marked, that suits your requirements. Breathtaking views and ideally situated to explore Portmadoc, Criccieth and Portmerion.
For a fresh, clean site with all the basics and almost a family atmosphere, look no further.
10/10!

Was our first time camping so nothing to compare against. The site is very clean the toilet block were spotless and the showers hot (20p meter). The site is well looked after by Drew and he is always willing to help. We took our pup who we could walk in the small woodland area. The shop is only small for essentials but local town only a short drive or 30 min walk. The local beaches are beautiful. Would recommend to anyone.

Great site, very helpful owners, facilites very clean, fantastic views over the hills, best site we've been to so far. In fact we liked it so much we've booked for 3 weeks in Aug 2004. Criccieth is a lovely little town with a nice safe beach for the kids. Bit more stuff at Porthmadog plus the steam trains which our boys love. Totally recommend it!
