Bell Tent - Furnished Luna Lotus Belle TentAug 2025

Just got back from a phenomenal weekend at Firecrest Valley. Our first time Glamping and we took our 3 year old, 14 week old and chihuahua Doris. We were in Tawny Owl, the lotus bell tent. It was lovely and spacious, with a comfy double bed and plenty of room for our travel cot. Composting toilet and shower cubicle was nice and clean and didn't smell at all. The kitchen area had a sink and gas hob with charging points which was handy. The fire pit was lovely for a campfire but I would suggest taking your own BBQ if you wanted to cook by the tent. We just grabbed some disposables from the local Morrisons. The play tent and climbing frame was awesome to keep kids entertained and to top it off the weather was gorgeous. Gary and Beki were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Gary brought one of their kids bikes with stabilisers over for our three year old to try, which he loved! He even made a little metal Doris! We had a brilliant time and can't recommend it enough!

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesJun 2025

Not the first time we have visited, won't be the last! A stones throw from a lot of things in West Wales yet it's so relaxed and quiet so best of both worlds. Brilliant friendly hosts, lots of room, plenty for kids to do, lovely hot showers, couple pubs down the road, can't fault it whatsoever!

Fun little break for our family

Bell Tent - Furnished Luna Lotus Belle TentMay 2024

Stunning place to stay, with a lot of outside space and a park for our children to play which they absolutely loved. Could easily bring a bat and ball and avoid coming into contact with people. Toilets/showers were lovely and clean and also the communal area where you could go to wash dishes and cook was lovely and clean too. We were greeted and given some wood for the fire and they were lovely. You can also get more wood and ice packs at the back of the communal shed for £5 which was easy enough to do. We did ask for a cot on the original booking but didn't get one, but it was fine as he slept in between us so wasn't a huge problem so we didn't feel the need to bring it up. If you need one may be worth asking them if they have them on site. There are two shops fairly local too which have mostly everything you'd need, including for younger children (Calpol, baby food, marshmallows and sticks) and also a lovely little chippy (come out of the grounds, turn left and left again and then just follow the road). We will definitely come back as a family and just as a couple.
