 First thing about this site is getting there. The approach to Barmouth is very tight in places so take care with those larger outfits.
The entrance to the site itself is very tight from Barmouth side but a gentle swing out and in you go down a very steep bank to reception. We had a warm welcome and were shown our pitch which was hardstanding.
Very nice indeed, tv, water and mains all there. We had sun all day which was nice as the weather was superb. There are two shower blocks which were clean at all times and the showers gave a great warm spray, just the job!
The site borders the beach and is split from it by the railway line. There is a very safe crossing with good vision both ways so no problems here. Just past the gate is a skate/stunt
park which my son loved and so did many others from the site.
Its then about 40 feet to the beach and what a great one it is. Nice safe clean water that's not deep until you are a long way out so great for kids and the water was warm!
From this point you can walk into Barmouth or take the land train if you like.
There is a cafe on the prom next to the stunt park
Which does lots of snacks from 8am till 9pm, very handy.
On site there is a shop and take away selling basics but to be honest the woman who runs it had a very miserable attitude to customers so we did not bother.
The play area is fine for younger ones and is closed at dusk which we thought was a good idea.
The camping area is very large and had a very nice 'family' feel to it despite there being many types of campers on site.
Everyone seemed to follow the basic rules and we found all the people we met to be very chatty and friendly.
All in all a great site and boy are those sunsets superb.

What a gem of a campsite. If location is everything then Hendre Mynach is everything. Almost on the beach without the wind due to the way hedges are located. But in my experience location is not everything.
The staff go the extra mile and the facilities are well maintained and in excellent condition. The play park kept our little one (7) amused for hours and we felt comfortable leaving him alone in safety.
As far as we are concerned this is the best site we have been to in 20 plus years of camping. A definite booking for next year.
Barmouth is a lovely place and with the right weather better than any foreign holiday.
So onto the criticism. Water pressure is low at peak times but we went in a very busy period. That's it.

Hendre Mynach is a pretty and well manicured site. We were offered a choice of pitches and opted for the high ground to take advantage of the fabulous view.
Being novices, we selected a pitch on quite an incline but I must stress that such pitches are in the minority.
After pitching we wandered around the site. The ablutions block was excellent, plenty of showers, sinks and W. C. S. All were in impeccable order.
The washing-up area and laundry were also in A1 order.
We found the on-site shop a little pricey but useful.
The office provided a mine of local knowledge and all the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful.
The position of this camp site is superb, although the entry road is a bit on the steep side. It is a stones throw from the beach and a 15 minute walk to Barmouth town.
I would recommend this site unreservedly.

This was our first stay at this site and it won't be our last. The site is very clean and well maintained, the staff very helpful and friendly.
Excellent location, just a short flat very pleasant walk into Barmouth along the prom. Never been to such a dog-friendly place.
My husband went into the camp shop/take-away on two occasions but said that the woman serving was so disagreeable we didn't use it again.
When we spoke to other campers we found we weren't the only ones to find her difficult.

I Am 44 years old and this trip was only my second camping trip ever! Visited this site with my 6 year old daughter and alas my wife positively refused to join us!
We had a wonderful 3 days, the sun shone and it was a super holiday and so much enjoyed by my daughter that she (nearly) forgot mum wasn't here! The site is superb with a beach-side location and access to this beautiful part of Wales (though we never moved the car a inch!).
We camped in a spacious 4 berth tent (no electric) and I have to say it was superb. The site management are professional and ultra efficient and will do anything to help.
There is convenient access over the railway line and then you are straight on a beautiful quiet beach - what could be better - and Barmouth is less than 10 minutes cycle down the prom (20 minute walk). There is a shop on site and shower/laundry facilities etc, to be honest we could ask for nothing more!
We even managed a present for the grumpy wife/mum who sadly opted out. A bucked of dirty pans and crockery!
Will definitely be back

Another trip to Hendre Mynach, another great weekend at an immaculately kept, well maintained campsite. We arrived in torrential rain but the ground must be well drained as there was no mud, despite the wettest summer on record in the UK this year!
The staff cannot do enough for you, the pitches are roomy and well maintained. My car battery kept draining and the helpful staff didn't mind how many times I asked for a jump-start, they were right there with the battery booster. The RAC eventually diagnosed a faulty battery, but I was so grateful to the staff for their help. If I had needed it they would have pitched the caravan for me.
There is a sharp turn and a steep hill to access the site, but whilst it looks awkward, people negotiate it all day without issues, and in the unlikely event you had a problem, the staff would sort it for you.
Great location, just 20 mins walk down a flat straight promenade road into the town centre, but just across the road from the beach. The trains only add to the charm and didn't disturb us at all.
All facilities are always clean and well maintained, and with the sea across the road, the mountains of snowdownia behind you and the mawdach estuary to explore by rail, bike, car or foot, you really could not ask for more.
This is our second trip to Hendre Mynach and wont be our last. Congratulations to the owners, a well managed, well maintained site in a great location.

This was our 4th or 5th visit to Hendre Mynach since we started camping.
Friendly check in, shown to our pitch by the owner/warden. Nice large hardstanding at the 'quiet' end of the site, near to toilet block with adequate, clean facilities. Small washing up area and bins/recycling close by.
Once pitched up there was an overhanging branch scraping the top of our motorhome. Within half an hour we'd told the owner/warden and the problem was sorted - great service.
Train line runs alongside the site but never bothered us at any point.
Small, well stocked shop on site (including daily papers), although the lady serving never seemed to have a smile! The shop also houses a small cafe, which seemed to be open most of the day. However, the takeaway to the side of shop never seemed to be very open - not that it bothered us.
The walk along the promenade into Barmouth town takes 25-30 minutes, but you can bike in within 10 minutes. The town itself feels slightly run down these days (but what coastal town doesn't?!) but we love Barmouth simply for the views of the bridge, mountains and the Mawddach estuary. There's no better place to sit outside than one of the many cafes overlooking the bridge and harbour. We had a great meal in the Anchor Restaurant - recommended!
Every time we visit Wales we have to go to Barmouth so we have no doubts we'll be back at Hendre Mynach, yet again!

We went and knew the weather was going to be dodgy but had a great break. Two days of bad rain, but Two days to dry out and start enjoying things.
The pitch was great, flat, and not to far from the toilets and showers which were always spotless.
There is a land train that runs along the prom every half hour, but if you like walking its flat and takes about 15 mins to walk to the PUB, and another 15 mins in to town.
We took the 2 sprogs with us and they didn't want to come home, skate park really close, and a nice kids play park.
We didn't use the shop as we done our shopping in town.
The staff was so helpful and polite and don't intrude on your holiday at all.
I'll be back.

This is our second visit in 2 years to this site.
The staff are very friendly and there is a good little shop on site for any thing you forget in Barmouth.
The site playarea is well maintained and open until 9pm for kids up to 12 years.
Toilet blocks and shower blocks are always clean and tidied, and always had loo roll!
Location is excellent. The beach is across the road and Barmouth is a nice stroll away along the beach or promenade.
I recommend Knickerbockers Ice cream parlour on the harbour. Ice cream to die for, mmmm.
The site and Barmouth itself is very dog friendly. Along the prom there are many dog bins with doggy bags too which I found a great idea. Shops and stores have water bowls outside and many shops allow you in with your dog. One of us waited outside mainly but were invited in by a few shop owners. A welcome change.
Good flat pitches with electric or non. We had electric (best to book). Water and bins are very close.
Nice clean site with a great location. Would definitely recommend.

Super campsite, super location, super holiday!
We stayed at Hendre Mynach for a week in May in our campervan and had a great time. The campsite was exceptionally clean. Toilet and shower blocks always spotless. Lots of hot water and always loo roll. As soon as a pitch was vacated the mower men moved in ensuring it was in tip-top shape for the next campers. We were pitched in a fairly level field, with lots of space around until a tent pitched right next to us. Strange really as the site was quiet. We didn't fancy listening to 'Homes under the hammer' every morning, so we left them to it (why do TVs sound so loud from tents??!)
We were very pleased with the location of the site, right next to the promenade and it was only a 5 minute cycle ride into Barmouth. Lovely coffee at Davy Jones Locker and a good meal in the Min-y-mor hotel. We were also lucky enough to experience the local musicians who 'jam' once a month on a Sunday in the hotel bar.
There is a splendid cycle ride from Barmouth to Dolgellau along the Mawddach Trail. 24 miles in total from the campsite. The Cambrian line is right next to the campsite and trains do pass about once an hour, but it didn't spoil our holiday in the slightest and we made use of the line visiting Portmeirion (visit after 3. 30pm for half-price admission) and Machynlleth. Hendre Mynach is only an hour and a half away from Llanberis if you fancy climbing Snowdon - highly recommended!
The tourist information centre is in the train station and the staff are very helpful. They recommended we do the Barmouth Panorama Mountain walk and we weren't disappointed. Fantastic views over the Mawddach estuary.
Other reviewers have negatively commented on the price of the campsite. The prices are clear. If you don't want to pay so much, then don't! We took advantage of the reduced prices out of school holidays and as such can't comment on child friendliness, but we know the site is dog friendly!
Definitely on our 'must return' list!
