 When we arrived at the site we were greeted by a couple of young lads who asked us if we knew the pitch number we were booked onto (this was in the confirmation email) they took us up to the pitch and guided us in. The site was generally well looked after and we had plenty of room between ours and the next pitch. The toilet block and water taps were very close by, the water was not too fast out of the tap so did take some time to fill the container. The toilets and showers were fine, with a shower timer of 7 mins which was plenty of time to enjoy a nice hot shower, however on a couple of days the water was only lukewarm, this may be due to the time we showered and I suspect a hot water storage tank which had not warmed back up. One day the drain was blocked and the water ran out into the basin area, I reported this via another of the young helpers, and this was rectified almost immediately. We were at the top of the site and was very windy on a couple of days needing storm straps on our awning! There was plenty of waste bins and recycling bins to use.
The owner was rarely in the office, but there was always a few of the young helpers to report any issues to, and a phone to allow you to call any three of the owners if needed. We booked for 7 nights and decided to stay on for a couple more which was no problem.
On a couple of evenings a man came round to let us know of activities which were going on if we wanted to join in.
The only down side if any was the constant movement of jets and the sea king helicopter directly overhead from RAF Valley, we got used to the noise, but could be troublesome if you were expecting a quiet holiday, as on some days it was continuous, from 8am - 10pm Monday to Friday. The site is situated on the flight path.
The area was well situated for the beach where the dogs could go all year round and lots of other nearby areas to walk, only a short drive away. Fabulous chippy and cafés in the centre of rhosneigr plus small grocery shops, but for a bigger shop there was a large Tesco and morrisons, plus other high street names on a retail park less than 10 mins drive away.
A nice site, where we were left alone (which is how we like it!) but the owners were contactable if required.
There were several youngsters who I assume were hired to help around the site during the peak periods and they were a very polite and helpful presence around the site.
Would definitely go back here again

Just got back from my stay here, lovely weather and I had a brilliant time.
The toilet block are looking very tired and I raised this with the owner, he explained to me that it had been his intention to do jobs on them last winter but had not been able to as his father had been taken ill, following this he then lost his mother.
He did state an intention to attack them in 2014 but we'll just have to wait and see
I'd definitely return its a beautiful area and the owner was brilliant to chat to

Just returned back from what was going to be three night stay, we came back a day early!
We took a risk from previous reviews that the toilet block would have being refurbished over the winter as stated. How wrong the sign still hangs there stating this would be happening over the winter and asking for ideas, don't think they will use my idea of using explosives!
There are other facilities on site but these are quite a trek up to were the seasonal tourers are
But still tired looking and only just sufficient
We weren't shown to our pitch upon arrival just pointed in the general direction
If you have static caravan this a perfect site all others beware
Not too bad an area

We were a bit dubious when visiting this site due to past comments but decided to give it a go. The site is lovely and peaceful. We arrived on a Friday morning and the planes were flying from RAF valley this is something I quickly got used to and enjoyed watching. The planes did not fly after 5pm and they didn't fly over the weekend either.
The kids loved the freedom of riding their bikes around the site and playing in the park. The swimming pool was lovely and the kids had the chance to use it twice over the weekend.
The showers were basic ( due to be refurbished in winter this year )but clean with plenty of hot water which is all I expected really if we wanted 4* luxury we would have stayed in a hotel.
There is a laundry room on site which has plug sockets that you put 20p in to use this gave plenty of use probably about 15 mins. Dryers 50p for 15 mins which came in really handy as the weather was really bad on the first day !there are also washing machines which are £1.
All in all a very good site that we will be returning to

Stayed one night after getting off the Hollyhead ferry.
There is quite a narrow lane up to the site.
The facilities were basic and quite old but were clean and serviceable. The children's playground was again quite basic but kept the kids entertained for a while.
The location was very handy for the ferry, and while we didn't have the time to explore the area, the village close by looked nice.
The site is close to RAF Valley, although there was nothing moving while we were there.
Would I go back? I don't think so as there are nicer sites with better facilities in the area, admittedly for twice the price.

My first experience of Anglesey was at Ty Hen. The transition from the mainland over the Britania bridge is quite striking. Once your on the island, its desolate. It has aspects of Cornwall and the far north of Scotland. But with less infrastructure.
I came to the conclusion that that is why people come and great for dog walking.
As for Ty Hen. You must be aware that its right next to the main line to Holyhead. But you cant hear the trains. Over the noise of the jets taking off and landing at RAF Fali.
Kids will be transfixed, the novelty wore off in about 30 seconds for me. It gets particularly tedious when they're coming home on an evening, so try and be somewhere else.
The toilets/showers did have a 'loo of the year award'. This must be on environmental grounds as my wife and I found them to be impractical and unsanitary. However, they were regularly cleaned.
The floor on the mens toilets/showers gathered to a central point and you would have to be pretty naive to not think foul water from the urinal area wasn't gathering there too. And thereby being tracked back and forth into the shower area.
They are scheduled for renovation though. My wife arrived prior to me and was not shown to her pitch or offered a map to show the location of the facilities. The post holding the power connection fell over when she put the cable in.
Our neighbours who love Ty Hen, had two massive german sheperds and did their shopping locally. 12 miles away in Holyhead.
My son loved the planes but peace, tranquillity and a reasonable level of sanitation are high up on my tick list. Which other sites on the island offer. If you want to go see the planes, which we did because the red arrows were in town, you can get really close in a couple of locations.
Which other sites on the island offer.
I hope to visit Anglesey again but will stay elsewhere.

The campsite setting/location was great - watching the RAF planes. However, the pitch details provided at booking were immaterial due to fields and pitches having no signs and the office generally being unmanned, leading to a 'free for all' of pitching tents and parking cars (creating some bad feeling amongst fellow campers).
The facilities were functional but basic (toilet/shower blocks were in need of renovation which is planned for winter).
The children's play area provided entertainment but unfortunately was quite dangerous with screws/bolts poking out and coming loose.
I would not come back to stay at this campsite.

To be honest this was the 4th time we have stayed here and we keep returning because the place is fantastic.
There's a lot of season tourers here whose children all know each other, but they welcome our child with open arms and he has a ball here.
Fantastic play area, donkeys, ducks, ponies, cats, an outdoor heated pool, a brilliant lake for boating on and one for fishing on; it's got it all. The toilets are spotless and good hot showers (free).
It's a very peaceful site with strict rules for noise. Children must be back at their pitches by a certain time and no noise at all after 11pm.
The site overlooks 'RAF Vally' and you get some great views of the aircraft coming and going. Rhosneigr is a short (traffic free) walk from the site, with fabulous beaches and some shops and pubs.
The place has it all and we will definitely be going again.

My son & I had a really good weekend staying here, for the price we paid £7. 50 a night even in peak season is well value for your money,
One thing I must point out is, if you fancy a bit of shelter, which we did, don't pitch in the area which looks like a private parking space in the tent area, I've bent more pegs even plastic one's.
Other than that we were very welcomed and would surely visit this site again,
We also enjoyed our short walking into the local village which took us about 20mins, cutting trough the public footpath, which is easily signed, in which we found sandy's bar and bistro looked a bit posh, but we were welcomed for a drink
Anyway you got too try it out, I will be back there in the next few weeks.

On arrival we were greeted in a very friendly helpful manner by Bernie, who showed us to our pitch and said to give him a shout if we needed anything.
The site itself was spotlessly clean.
Our loo block was basic, but spotless. Dishwashing area was again spotless.
Used the family room as she showered the two kids. This was lovely and spacious, with shower, sink, and loo. Plenty of room to be able to keep clothes dry. Also to shower kids one at a time, and put them in a dry area while she got her own shower. For her this was a big bonus.
The kids loved the play area, and spent most of the time we were on site there. This closes at 10pm. We found this ideal, as it meant that all kids went back to their own units, and we could get to bed.
Bernie and Alice loved the swimming pool.
We didn't bother with the other stuff on site.
Child friendly I would say 10 of of 10
Although we did not try it, there is apparently a lovely walk down into Rosneigr. (I'd hurt my hip, and Bernie had a bad heel at the time.) On our next to last day, our new neighbours told us about this, and said that they came to this site every year. Rosneighr itself is only a short drive away - two well stocked convenience stores, ideal for bits and bobs and a chip shop (closes at 8pm). For a big shop you need to go further afield to Llangefni.
Rosneigr beach is lovely - took the dog for a walk every evening.
Although we loved watching them, the site is on the flight path to RAF Valley - and some may find the planes a bit noisy.
Would definitely return to this site.
