About this glamping for up to 3 guests in Powys

Thermostatically Heated, wooden-floored glamping tent. Double and triple layer with thick insulation so just as warm and draft-proof as a caravan! Spectacular view, hot water & Wi Fi.

This is a cross between a caravan and a tent. And you can hear the birdsong, wind in the beech trees above and the rain.

Central living area and kitchen of 3.1 metres (10’ 3”) x 1.75 metres (5’ 9”) which includes facing, very comfortable settees 1.25 metres (4’ 1”) long, with large fold-up table imbetween.

2 double beds behind each settee are 1.22 metres (4’ 0”) wide by 2.07 metres (6’ 9”) long. So no beds to make up!

Centre height 2.05 metres (6’ 9”).

Normal kitchen facilities, hot & cold running water, microwave (but no gas oven), mains sockets, superb lighting and next to separate 2 metres square bathroom tent.

Beautiful and serene views over thickly wooded valleys and rolling green hills, this tent is set between 2 huge beech trees in a large, 2 acre, wind-sheltered and secluded natural woodland. 2 streams feed 5 peaceful pools, and 5 metre waterfalls which can be floodlit after dark. The garden has half a mile of paths, 12 benches, hammock designed for 2 people.

The door and outside sitting area capture the rising and morning-time sun and also the rising full moon.

Kitchen is fully equipped and includes running hot and cold water, electric kettle, microwave oven, 2 gas hobs & grill, small fridge with tiny freezer but optional full-size fridge freezer in bathroom tent, & 5 good quality non-stick pans, crockery & cutlery

At the end of a one-mile no-through-road, birdsong is often all you will hear! (Around 10 cars pass per day)

You can walk directly onto the hills from the top of the garden and enjoy wonderful panoramic views.

Otherwise, you can choose more level walks from the lane, passing rare breed sheep and angora goats.

You will often see the aerial acrobatics of buzzards, and red kites or swallows. You can hear, and see many bird species from as close as 2 metres as they visit bird feeding table right next to the door. (robin, blackbird, thrush, yellowhammer, great tit, coal tit, blue tit, chaffinch, other finches including the greenfinch and stunning goldfinch and even nuthatch and woodpecker)

About half the woodland is fairly steep in parts, and there are slight gradients on the path around your accommodation, and the path up to the woodland. All paths are uneven in parts, although gravel has been used in places to make it more even.

Small areas of the paths may be slippery after rain.

If using the higher part of the woodland, you should bring proper walking shoes.

I cannot accept any liability for injury due to slipping or falling over on paths.

However, there are some safety hand rails.

This is not a place with neatly manicured lawns and flower beds! It is a wild garden and woodland with 15 benches and half a mile of strimmed paths cut through untouched pasture with long grass and wild flowers.

Your exclusive parking area, just off the lane, is only 25 metres from the tent which is in one corner of the 2 acre woodland. It’s 30 metres away from my bungalow conservatory which I avoid using when the tent is occupied. You will NOT hear any music or voices coming from inside the bungalow.

Away from your exclusive area around the tent, the rest of the woodland is non-exclusive, and may be in use sometimes by me or visitors staying in one of the other 2 accommodations here. These are the caravan, 200 metres away or 3 rooms in the bungalow, accessed from the far end of the bungalow, and both out of sight from you, because of the trees. All 3 accommodations are far enough apart within the 2 acres of land that there will be no overlooking or feeling of intrusion on privacy.

Nearby is the spectacular and tallest waterfall in England and Wales!

Also nearby is Lake Vyrnwy Nature Reserve, 2 red kite feeding centres, and horse riding can be booked only half a mile away.

There are places for golfing, swimming, bowling, tennis, squash, and sailing and angling (rainbow and brown trout) in the idyllic setting of Lake Clywedog, a haven for rare and migratory birds.

Despite its small size, Llanidloes offers a fishmonger, an organic fruit and vegetable shop, 3 unique cafes, a vegetarian restaurant, as well as a health food shop.

The surrounding area is a special attraction for walkers because of the sheer variety of scenery, with its many large lakes and reservoirs, rivers and rolling hills.

Nearby is the most spectacular section of Offa's Dyke as well as Glyndwr's Way and Hafren Forest, with the famous walk to the source of the River Severn.

Also nearby is the spectacular Elan Valley with its 4 reservoirs and river walks, and you can hire bikes in nearby Rhayader to enjoy the quiet lanes and paths in the Elan Valley area.
