The Woodlands Caravan Park is a family run site with a friendly atmosphere. The site is situated 300 yards from the spectacular Devils Bridge Waterfalls and has beautiful views of the Welsh mountains and valleys. The site adjoins the family run farm and guests are welcome to walk on the farm lane to enjoy the fresh air and scenic views. There is a camp shop and tea room on site. This is an ideal base for birdwatching, walking, mountain biking and fishing. Sorry no pets allowed in the self catering bungalow but dogs are allowed on the camping and caravan park.

Love this site. Immaculate facilities, beautiful landscaping, quiet area, café and small shop on site, friendly, helpful staff. Great for dog owners with lots of walk options from the site (with doggies on leads due to sheep). Very reasonable October offer as well. Only negatives, which have nothing to do with the site, are lack of public transport, and short stretch of A road to walk down to get to falls and steam train station - not too busy in October, might be different in summer.

This site is excellent and has the best showers and toilets I have seen on a campsite, the shower and toilet cubicles are large and the whole block is immaculately clean. The site is well laid out and pitches are very spacious. The hard stand are very large and flat, some of the grass pitches are not very level. The couple that run the site are lovely, helpful and friendly. There is a nice little tea room on site that serves breakfast and lunches all day if you fancy a night off cooking. You are very close to the Devil's falls, steam railway, walks and a pub with restaurant. This really is a lovely well kept site that I can highly recommend.

I stayed on the non electric camping pitches and they aren’t marked so if you are lucky you can choose a big flat area to pitch. The area kept for non electric pitches isn’t as flat as other sites I’ve been too and it’s quite a steep hill to walk up and over to get to the facilities block. The site is quite big. The toilet and shower block was superb very high quality and pristine. Kept wonderfully clean. My stay was slightly spoilt by others who had very aggressive noisy dogs and I’m surprised they weren’t asked to leave. I’m a dog lover but the dogs were bordering on dangerous to be allowed on the site. The owners appeared to struggle to control them. At night being a dark sky you see lots of stars. It’s also worth noting the site is next to a very big sheep farm and the sheep were very noisy and stinky during my stay. I grew up on a farm with sheep and even I found the smell quite strong. Overall a very clean well kept site.…

By far the best facilities I've ever visited as far as campsites go - and I've camped for over 15 years. Beautiful location, wonderful shower block and the pitches were particularly large (not easy to find in most campsites). Would highly recommend Woodlands!

This is the BEST caravan site. REALLY good, clean, spacious toilets , showers and washing up spaces. Fridges, washing machine and tumble dryer in the block too. Beautiful vistas of the surrounding hills, mad statues scattered around the site, masses of space everywhere. Separately, 10/10 flapjacks in the little cafe at the entrance to the site.
