Just had 2 nights here the campsite spotless beautiful location, toilets clean , loved exploring the site , But , while exploring some places where restricted with clear signs!! that’s fair enough ! We walked past the Abby and there was a small field so we went to have a look and when we turned around there was a guy just standing there staring at us , I replied are we not aloud to be here he replied no , there wasn’t any clear sign in fact there wasn’t any sign , left me slightly uncomfortable just felt a little unfriendly, and left us a little confused , I wouldn’t leave a bad review as it’s my take and how I was left feeling with my family , just missing a friendly atmosphere

Toxteth O' Grady ★★★★★

Very good campsite, good facilities, good access to the Mawddach River either straight off the site field or by walking down the road to the old bridge which is a popular spot on a hot day. Another bonus are the ruins of Cymer Abbey on site. Only negatives were the hard ground for the tent pegs & the dreaded midges. Wouldn’t put us off returning though :)

Another lovely stay on a warm bank holiday weekend. Campsite not too crowded. Facilities clean and well maintained. Only criticism is I feel the ancient abbey on site should not be an area children should be playing. I am not sure how this is rectified as even though when the abbey is closed the children are just climbing over the gate.
