About
Nestled between the cliffs on the edge of Snowdonia National Park and the coast at Porthmadog your choice of luxury glamping accommodation awaits. From a stay in a quilted Lotus tent with king size bed/fur throws, fairy lights, log burner/eco fuel and off grid solar to our cosy Western Wagons set in a nature area with stunning views or perhaps something a bit more quirky with our converted horsebox awaits you. Bus services from the site direct to Snowdon/Eryri trails and only 10 minutes to the beach and with a choice of pubs/restaurants a short walk away this accommodation is ideal for those who want somewhere unique to stay with full breakfast included in our 'Cowshed' eatery - just sleep, eat and explore to your hearts content!
Luxury Lotus Quilted Glamping Tents
Your lotus tent is made from material that is nearly 3 times as thick as other bell/tipi type tents and combined with the quilting/log burner is ideal for a winter escape as we are open most of the year.
There are plenty of extras for you including all your duvets/bedding, pillows, throws, chairs and table/storage with camping chairs to relax outside your tent with a drink/take in the views after a hard day adventuring. Beds can be set up as a twin or a kingsize double and welcome logs/sticks are provided for you to get you going on arrival.
Each glamping tent has its own private facilities over the bridge/woodland path during your stay. Oh and you also have two unique bedside pets in your accommodation for personal belongings too! We have a number of these tents in total and the pictures are representative of the style/setup of each.
Western Wagon & Nature Area
Hand built by us your Western Wagon comes with everything you need for a short break away.
Each one has been positioned to give space and unparalleled stunning views of the mountain ranges/cliffs in the local area with outside undercover porch style seating built in so you can take in the views whilst being in the open/great outdoors!
Inside you will find a raised double bed with an opening rear window too, clothing storage boxes, hanging space, storage space for luggage and even a pull out dining table included. In the internal space there are two comfy chairs to take in the views, coffee table, space heater/fire, rustic coat hangar, boot storage and further 'nick/nack' storage/shelving and mirror.
We have tried to make the wagons as energy efficient as possible using thermal insulation and to use minimal energy with just USB charging/lighting available to be as 'off-grid' as possible though the space heater can be utilised as required. If you bring a coolbox then we have freezers on site so can drop off/collect freezer packs daily if required and again is in keeping with our 'eco' ethos.
The site has an open-sided undercover barn area with clothes lines/drying area, picnic tables and a kitchenette/sink area with a kettle and hairdryer too. Shared toilets/showers are approx 60-120m away depending on which wagon you are in!
There are eight of these available and images are representative of the of the style/setup of each. The 'pond' is a drainage scrape and depending on the weather can be dry/boggy or full!
Carneddau Coverted Horsebox
Set in its own field our newly converted horsebox on our glampsite has a comfy sofa to take in the views in front of a toasty living flame fire/space heater, breakfast bar and stools and plenty of storage/drawers/hangars for clothes etc.
Up the stairs there is your king size bed with distant views of the mountain ranges and the cliffs nearby - just mind your head when you get up in the morning! There is a mini fridge and kettle also in the accommodation, spare electric sockets/1 with USB charge points and a small burner on the patio along with chairs to sip a hot drink or tipple in the evening or take in the views during the day!
The shower/toilet is approx 20 seconds away and the toilet/washbasin is currently for sole use of the horsebox/non-shared with a private key.
Being eco minded most of the interior of the horsebox has been made from reclaimed/found/repurposed items we found during lockdown!
Cowshed Eatery
Full breakfast is included with all accommodation and available with tea/coffee in the Cowshed from 8am. If setting off adventuring earlier then you can opt to collect your takeaway breakfast wrap/drinks instead from 7.30am.
