About the site
Nestled in the Carmarthenshire countryside, the site's 36-acre smallholding makes a superb getaway that will suit the whole family, with guests choosing to revisit time and time again. The site is also close to beaches, major local attractions such as Folly farm and Tenby! A small, family-friendly site surrounded by nature to make guests feel relaxed and enjoy a good night's sleep, ready to explore the fantastic coast and countryside. Welcoming tents, trailer tents, small campervans, rooftop tents, and teardrop caravans, the camping paddock is situated on four acres, with only eleven camping pitches means lots of room for everyone. Each pitch is individually cut, so you have a designated area with plenty of space between any neighbours. Guests can even opt for one of the superior grass pitches which are located in their own private field but are still close by to the main camping field and all of the facilities. At this rural retreat, campfires come as a standard, with a fire pit and picnic bench, both at no hire charge. However, logs can be purchased on site. For those who prefer glamping, the site features the Eco Barn Pods and large luxurious 6m Stargazing Glamping Domes. All units boast comfy beds and a camp kitchen area with a two-ring gas stove, kettle, pots, pans, crockery, and utensils for all your cooking needs. The three Eco Barn Pods sleep up to two guests. Two are fitted with a convertible table (also a double bed), and one with a double bed with a memory foam mattress and space to store your clothes and items. All also have picnic benches and fire pits and offer stunning views of the Carmarthenshire countryside. Shared washing and showering facilities are nearby. Sleeping up to four, the Stargazing Glamping Domes are complete with skylights, plenty of space, a double bed, two single beds, private composting toilets, and the main showers close by. There are two domes to choose from, including the Woodland Dome is located adjacent to woodland, providing a totally private retreat. The Valley Dome, on the other hand, is located in the field next to the camping paddock with far reaching views of the countryside. All of the glamping units also have access to outdoor kitchens with a cooking stove, cool box, freezer packs, crockery, utensils, kettle and more!
