The details
Tucked away on the corner of a family-run working farm, Under the Oak Glamping is a collection of cabin-style self-catering safari tents for the individual, couple, family or friend-group who like to spend time in the rugged beauty of nature without compromising on amenities. With a choice of four person or six person tents, Under the Oak Glamping is the perfect spot for returning enthusiasts or first time parties looking to explore the well-kept secret of South Wales. Each of the three glamping shelters has a private decking, and is heated by a central wood-burning stove, guaranteed to keep you cosy whatever the month. The smaller tent size contains a Welsh box bed, ideal for couples, and a super-comfortable sofa which converts into a bed suitable for both children and adults. The larger tent is set further back from the water’s edge, with its own small space for running around, relaxing, or simply being outside. This larger tent, Dan y Ffawydden or ‘Under the Beech’ is set up with two sets of doubles and a bunk bed, accommodating a number of different guest configurations. It also has its very own private hot tub, heated within an hour using local wood, and free from caustic chemicals. Cynefin is a railway goods wagon, which we bought and renovated to make the perfect cosy, quirky getaway. It’s tucked away under an Oak tree in a corner of our farm, with the perfect mix of peace, quiet and privacy. It also has a covered wooden hot tub, to take in the amazing views while you chill. While you’ll be experiencing the joys of being off the beaten track, alone with your friends, family or like-minded fellow campers, you won’t be missing out on the comforts and luxuries of the twenty first century. Each tent has a full kitchen, offering not just the facilities required to cook up a feast for hungry campers, but also providing salt and pepper and basic herbs to start you off. Choose between the inside two ring burner or head outside and prepare an al-fresco feast using the fire pit as a grill. Your plumbing is also top of the range, with a bathroom which contains a hot shower, flushing toilet and standard basin, as well as fluffy white towels. Under the Oaks Glamping is a magical and restorative spot, where everyone from urban youngsters on their first camping trip to seasoned outdoors enthusiasts returning to the valleys and beaches of South Wales will find themselves in for a treat. The atmosphere is fantastic whatever the weather and the central pond makes for a glamping experience you simply won’t find anywhere else. You’re ideally located for a day trip to Cardiff should you feel the need, while the hidden gem beaches of South Wales beckon, along with the majestic and dramatic Brecon Beacons National Park.
