“ A Goldilocks campsite , not too big not too small”

Only gave 4 stars for Facilities as there was no hot water at the dish washing sinks. I'm fairly new to this so it may be expected but the campsite we had before had hot water.

Reply from Gwerniago Campsite at 15 Jun 2021

Thank you for your review. I'm sorry for the lack of hot water. There is usually plenty. Sometimes a tap is left running or when washing up customers sometimes washes up under a running hot water tap instead of using the bowls provided. It is a challenge to have plenty of hot water for all customers to shower and to wash up at any time. We do appreciate customers that are considered of how much hot water they use.
