Your recent experiences/opinions at campsites near the above venues would be most appreciated.
Hithangyow.
Maybe change the area to North West Wales. 😉
D'oh... yep - just realised. North and West, of course...
Been recommended on here many times, Cae Du between Llwyngwril and Tywyn is a lovely site right on the coast which allows camp fires ([url= http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=4875 ]clicky[/url]). Costs £12 a night nowadays for two of us in a tent. No electrics, no pubs nearby, just the views. About 30 mins drive to Machynlleth, 30 mins to CyB.
Alternatively, if you want to be closer to Machynlleth, try Gwerniago. Pub within walking distance. ([url= http://www.gwerniago.co.uk/index.html ]clicky[/url])
Never camped near Betws or Nant yr Arian, but I would recommend you look at the 'search by map' option (option 2) at [url= http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/index.asp ]www.ukcampsite.co.uk[/url] to find suitable places (can filter by tent / caravan etc. campfires, pubs nearby etc.)
Torrent Walk at Dolgellau, camp fires on a night time too
if you dont mind it being basic then www.dolgam-snowdonia.co.uk/camping.html
