Adrian Wright, owner of Cefn Coed Wild Camping near Dolgellau, has faced online abuse after asking a couple to extinguish their campfire. In a TikTok video, he was called a "f*!*!ing helmet" for enforcing the ban and asking guests to lower their music. Wright explained that the ban is necessary due to dry conditions and nearby wildfires, stating that the ground is so dry that campfires pose a huge risk to life, animals, and the environment. He noted that staff patrol nightly and politely ask guests to put out fires, adding that he has lost income from firewood sales. His daughter Sophie said the warnings are particularly relevant as a fire started on a neighboring farm, reinforcing the importance of precautions during dry conditions.
