Our first stay on a CL - the bar has been set high!

Having only stayed on main Club sites before, we were very nervous about our 'brave' decision to stay at Cyndyn for five nights in August 2018, our first at a CL. However, we needn't have worried as, once we had found the site, it was wonderful! The welcome from Mr Jones was lovely and he was around and about for much of the time we were there - always happy to say hello, suggest places to visit, or even just have a natter! Finding the site following our satnav was 'interesting' - Mr Jones even said that satnavs seem to send people round the harder way and he suggested the best way to get to and from the site. You are best to follow signs to Whistling Sands from the B4413 and then at a subsequent junction to Anelog without actually going into Aberdaron. The grounds were immaculate - hardstanding spaces for our folding camper to fit on with the awning on the well kept grass. The two toilet/shower rooms were super, clean and functional. Showers are coin operated but 20p gave plenty of time to have a good shower. It was lovely to stay on a quiet site in lovely countryside with all of the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay - we are now CL converts!

Spectacularly isolated but very comfortable site

Mr and Mrs Jones were really helpful and friendly. The site is beautifully kept with pebbled hard-standings and the remainder lawned.The two toilet blocks/showers were an unexpected luxury in a site which is quite isolated. The scenery is spectacular and there were lots of great walks from the site, even in the cold and snowy weather when we were there. The road to the site is no problem as long as you follow the directions. Don't be tempted to try to get there from Aberdaron as the road from there is extremely narrow and steep in places

Peace and tranquillity!

An excellent CL in so many ways. The owners are friendly and helpful, even finding us lost down a lane (the site directions in the Club book are slightly misleading about the T junction). The site has a great aspect looking out towards the sea, has excellent facilities (electric hook ups and water on each hardstanding pitch). We really liked the easy access from the site to the coast path (good walk to Whistling Sands/Porth Oer and a cafe by the beach) and 2 good well marked cycle routes (some steep bits!). Aberdaron is small but lovely with plenty of eating places and a couple of small shops.

What a super find!

This well-appointed site is very popular, with many visitors returning time and again to enjoy the peace and quiet that this area of Wales has to offer. As a South Walian by parentage, I was worried that 'Going North' would be a difficult prospect; I should not have been concerned. Everyone I met was friendly and welcoming, whether in the village itself or out at Cyndyn. The site's owner John was on hand throughout our stay to give advice about the best places to eat out (The Ship in Aberdaron is a good place to try for an evening meal) and local sites to enjoy. Whether seal-spotting over Hell's Mouth, walking along Whistling Sands or exploring the rugged coastline overlooking Bardsea, there is something in this area for anyone to visit. The approach roads are narrow and you must follow the directions printed in the Club book; the lane to the site becomes unsuitable for wide vehicles just after Cyndyn and one fellow holidaymaker came the wrong way falling foul of the narrow track and twisting an axle in the process. However, don't let that put you off - the (suitable) roads are well-frequented by caravans and motorhomes and there are plenty of passing places. All the pitches are serviced pitches so, if you have a mains water connection, you can use that instead of your aquaroll. John was able to lend me a length of waste pipe to connect straight into the drain (each pitch has a connection) so I didn't need to use the wastemaster, either. All I had to do was empty the loo, but with three toilets and a shower for camping use, I didn't neven need to do that. During the stay, John was busy creating a dishwashing area for campervans with limited facilities; an excellent idea and indicative of the can-do approach John has to running his site.

Surperb CL

Just returned from a week at this lovely CL, the weather being on our side too. Flat large gravel pitches with lovely mowed ,lawn like ,grass surround. Very clean toilets and showers. I think all the pitches were fully serviced, all the same charge whether you use the services or not. Very welcoming and helpful owners, we got lost on our way and their daughter was promptly dispatched to guide us. They are quite narrow roads as you would expect for that area, but they are obviously well travelled by caravans. About 1.5 miles walk on very quiet country lanes to the lovely village of Aberdaron, super beach and two nice pubs. Just minutes from the coastal path easy walk to Whistling Sands. Managed to see some super sunsets over the sea . A beautiful area to explore from the site or car.  The owner repairs garden machinery etc on site but not intrusive and doesn't spoil this extremely peaceful quite site at all. We have already decided we will visit this site again, just hope we get the same fantastic weather.

ABOVE AVERAGE

What a lovely site. Everything 100%. Fully serviced pitches ,grass like a bowling green ,fantastic views and yes you can even see the sea in three different directions. Only one downside is that the approach roads are quite narrow. (Typical Welsh by roads )

Peaceful & well located for coast

We loved the unspoilt coastal village of Aberdaron and were lucky to have superb weather for enjoying some of the best coastal walking we've ever experienced.  After a day of energetic walking, this CL was the perfect spot to rest, just a few minutes drive from the village.  Quiet, well appointed and within 5 minutes walk of the coastpath, its location is hard to beat even without a sea-view.  We enjoyed a wam welcome and have no hesitation in recommending highly.

CYNDYN ~ stubborn, obstinate, loath - NEVER!

Just spent an amazing fortnight here. We are already planning a return trip. Thanks John for all your help. Superb views, serviced well looked after - mown pitches. Cycling, walking, sea fishing, water sports all exceptional in this unspoilt area.

Fantastic

A great site, 360 deg views to die for. We loved the area so much we stayed one more week. John Jones, what a fine host , his pet saying is " no problem " . When a rampant builders van distroyed my Motorhome door mirror , John made some brackets and allowed us to continue our tour of Norh Wales. The area is like the tip of Cornwall 45 years ago. Yes he repairs garden machinery , but he is very quiet. We will be back again 100 %

Best site ever.

This is definitely the best site (CL or Club) that we have ever stayed on. It's so good we returned within six weeks for another fortnight (and then three more days). It's quiet, friendly, cheap, and close to lots of hiking along the Wales Coast Path. Walk from the site to get on to the path 300m away. Drive to the many free parking spots in the area (but beware of Pwhelli where parking is extortionate) and walk or just gaze. The owners, are very friendly and helpful. I had a minor problem with my car and John helped me out by calling the local Ford dealer for a warning reset sequence. With water to each pitch (you'll need an autofill float for your aquaroll) and grey water drainage per pitch (longer hose needed) it makes life a lot easier. It can get very windy so take some storm tie-downs for your awning. I just used rope. We will be back.
