POSITIVES
We loved the beautiful location of this centre, right on the edge of Snowdonia walking country.
The staff as always were so helpful, the beds were comfortable even if the room was a little snug.
The food was really tasty too, some of the best I’ve had at these centres, we even tried to replicate one of the recipes at home, my only complaint was I would have liked more of it, I thought the adult portions were too small, adults were given the same amount as children and in my opinion it wasn’t enough, especially as I don’t usually eat puddings. When I asked for more I was told to wait until everyone else had been served and I felt too embarrassed to do so. Also would have liked to have seen more veg, and veg separate not mixed up as most children will eat some types but not others and if it is mixed up they will refuse it entirely.
Really liked the adult only common room so you could read or chat in peace, with a fridge for wine or to chill water bottles.
The wifi was really good even if it didn’t reach our bedroom.
NEGATIVES
The only thing we found with this location was that the weather tended to be typical Welsh weather – rainy – we only had one rain-free day – which really limited the amount of outdoor activities we would have liked to do, and indoor activities were quite limited. We probably would not return for that reason.
Packed lunch options were a bit limited.
Cake tended to disappear quickly and was not replenished – we had none at all on our last day – I’ve been to centres with more families than this and there was ample cake to go round.
Having done all the usual activities at previous holidays it would be nice to see something new, especially more activities geared to older children. We ended up only doing one activity and that affected our opportunities to make friends with other families. Also there was nowhere outside for the children to run about and kick a ball as we had at other centres.
