Hunker down in this beautifully designed canvas yurt on the Welsh-English border, where meadow views, crackling logs, and a back-to-nature feel make for a glamping stay to remember. This rustic and restful hideout is an ideal choice for a couple and their two dogs to hike the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley (15 miles) and then return to a much-deserved soak in the hot tub.
After a rural adventure, make your way into this one-of-a-kind bolthole, where nautical colours and exposed rafters invite you to unwind. The AGA-style wood burner is the ideal way to warm chilly feet after outdoor exploration, while the comfy seating offers guests a place to recline with a bestselling book and a piping-hot brew. Use the compact cooking area for simple meal preparation or create something more intricate in the larger shared kitchen. Rejuvenate with a daily shower in the private wet room, before drifting off in the queen-size bed, with the added flexibility of a pull-out sofa bed for groups of up to four guests. In the morning, ease into the day with a dip in the hot tub as breakfast sizzles on the BBQ and the rolling countryside serves as your backdrop.
There’s plenty to tempt you beyond this tucked-away rural base, from bird-watching walks through Llyn Bedydd’s woodlands (1.5 miles) to a mosey around the historic grounds of Iscoyd Park (3 miles). Head to Whitchurch (6 miles) for a relaxed bite to eat, keeping an eye out for Welsh cakes on local menus, or pack a picnic and make for the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley (15 miles), where rewarding climbs lead to camera-worthy panoramic views from the hilltops.
