Accommodation Description

· Kid-friendly · Barbecue

This tipi can accommodate four guests and features a double bed and two single beds. All of the beds are set on frames that are close to the ground and come with comfortable mattresses, pillows, and throws, as well as large cushions and a cowhide. In addition, there is a trunk with more blankets. There is also a low table and a wooden chest with cooking equipment in the tipi. The floor of the tipi is made of dry gravel and covered with matting and sheepskins.

In the middle of the tipi, there is an ornate, cast-iron wood-burning stove with a chimney flue that leads the smoke up and out of the smoke flaps in the top of the tipi. Guests will be supplied with lighters and a basket of chopped, dry firewood. The wood-burning stove has a fireguard for safety, and the hosts will give guests plenty of assistance upon arrival on how to use the stove and the smoke flaps.

The hosts do not recommend the tipi in fall or early spring if traveling with small children, due to cold temperatures. Read More

Adventures and sports

Kayaking/Canoeing

This family-friendly property is situated on 20 acres of land, surrounded by the Welsh countryside and along the edge of a forest, both of which provides the perfect natural playground for glampers.

Cardigan Bay is only a short drive from the glamping site and gives guests access to beach and water activities—keep eyes peeled for dolphins, seals, and porpoises! Interested glampers can even do a boat trip from Newquay to get a closer look at the local sea animals. Aside from the bay, canoeing along the Teifi River through the Cilgerran Gorge is another fun way to see the area’s fauna, including otters and kingfishers.

Other activities in this part of Wales include horseback riding, fishing, go-karting, and visiting visiting an Iron Age settlement, the Oakwood Theme Park, the National Woollen Museum, or the Centre for Alternative Technology.

Guests also have the option of receiving a healing or massage treatment, either on-site or at the nearby Malindi Centre, for an additional fee. Please inquire with the hosts for more information and pricing.
