Campsite is a sh*th*le and i am not a picky person but they have to be upon the worst toilets/showers i have ever been too and used...

Avoid like the plague .

Pub was ok tho very busy when i was there a couple of weeks ago but warm and friendly..

Don't know about the campsite, but the pub itself is amazing! Great range of real ales, really friendly regulars and a fantastic atmosphere.

And when friends of mine were late coming down from Elidir Fawr to meet me there, the landlord and landlady let me stay on - after hours - and wait for them. They even turned the lights outside the pub back on again to give them a beacon to aim for. You wouldn't get that in many places.

Amazing people, amazing place!

I smell a rat.


I don't worry about avoiding temptation - as I grow older, it starts avoiding me

If they are the worst toilets you have ever used, then you cant have been to that many campsites!

And the pub is great.

PLEASE HELP!!!!

Lost pet Jackdaw. Last seen Saturday with 5 Chinese people camping in Dinorwig. These people we think may have taken her [she was seen in the car with them] as she is so tame and very friendly. This bird will not survive out alone as she is inprinted on humans and has never spent a night out alone. 

She is very well known around the Dinorwig area and never leaves the area. 

We really fear for her welfare, if anyone has any information, no matter how trivial, please ring 07990676156

Pklease pass the word, thanks

Very sad!!

Last time I was in the Vaynol Arms you could only get about ten people standing up in the front parlour, from memory.Does it still have amazing photos of climbers from the 1920s who seem to be climbing over-vertical (if you know what I mean -you can tell from the way their ropes dangle ). And does it still serve rum-and -blackcurrant to under-age boys who have just finished the 14 peaks in a snowstorm? I think I need to go back.....

PS Jackdaw soup, anyone?
