Relaxing on the new bowling green...not quite flat though...

That was a seriously hard but rewarding days work...time for a cider now!

We really loved our stay in the Yurt, beautiful inside and out we felt so relaxed and in our own little world. The new kitchen & bathroom has everything you need for a comfortable stay, who doesn't love a whistling kettle?! There is plenty to do whether you have a car or not, lovely walks, a sit in the hammock or Snowdonia is about an hours drive. Shayne & Nathan were fantastic hosts and very inspiring, such a wonderful outlook on life we'll definitely be back again.. maybe to pick your brains more about building our own Hobbit hole!!

Visiting here for a retreat was very nourishing on many levels. The landscape was idyllic and captivating with some beautiful walks in nature nearby (and swims for those that dared!). Shayne and Nathan were excellent hosts who made the stay very comfortable and the roundhouse was a very peaceful and warm place to meditate. The food served was delicious and we ended up staying an extra day as we liked the place so much. Will definitely visit again!

I just held a breathwork and shamanic healing retreat at Ty Mam Mawr and it was a beautiful experience beginning to end.

This review almost feels like I'm cheating writing a good review for two extremely good friends, that's how well we were welcomed and the depth of our connection to Shayne and Nathan over the course of the weekend.

The location is absolutely gorgeous. The yurts are really cool and cosy. The round house is an energetic bubble with the vibe of a really sacred space.

Shayne and Nathan are two of the most pleasant, loving, funny and authentic people I've ever met. I'm definitely coming back to see them. Friends for life no matter the distance.

We have just come back from an amazing weekend at Nathan and Shayne's yurt. The yurt itself is gorgeous and looked very magical when we arrived, with fairy lights twinkling away. The kitchen facilities are great and we really enjoyed our breakfasts on the decked area, looking out to the beautiful Welsh mountains. The hot shower (with a view) rivals many hotels and our children were obsessed with the composting loo.
A perfect weekend. Thank you Nathan and Shayne for making us feel so welcome!

We spent a fantastic four days in Shayne and Nathan's wonderful yurt. Very clean and comfortable and all the facilities were well thought out and worked well.

Shayne and Nathan were always on hand if we had any questions and gave us a warm welcome. Shayne took plenty of time showing us around and talking us through how evertying worked.

Snowdonia is within easy reach. We climbed Tryfan and Cadair Idris, both of which were about 45 minutes drive away.

Of course it helped that the weather was fantastic, but if it hadn't have been, the yurt is so big that we could have easily spent two days relaxing, reading, and listening to music in great comfort.

Thoroughly recommended! We hope to be back.
