Such a beautiful place to spend the weekend! I cannot recommend Shayne and Nathan's place enough.
Our hosts were super hospitable and friendly, any questions we had they were just a text away.
The large Yurt is authentically Mongolian and it is a truly magical space, perfect for a group to relax around a fire. The smaller yurt was more secluded, really gorgeous and had a beautiful view. Super warm and cosy and no need for the fires. Nathan generously supplied a starter kit too so no forking out for fire wood! You are off-grid so we had to be mindful of the resources we used, another way this unique accommodation helped connect us to nature.

We give this place a ten out of ten, it ticked every box. We were not after a boozy party weekend, so if that’s what your after you would be wasting your time. Set up in a beautiful rural area of Wales, we stayed in one of the yurts with all the necessities we could need. The weather was miserable at times which all added to the experience, our own log burner inside to keep us warm after amazing walks in the hills and deep forests.
We didnt see a soul on our walks, the site is literally the last sign of civilisation before you enter the woods. From start to finish we couldn’t have asked for better hosts, they literally couldn’t have done anymore for us. Lovely people, thanks you so much for making us feel so welcome, I loved my surprise birthday weekend.
I recommend this place ten fold to anyone wanting to get a break away from the fast paced city life, who want there own chill spot with adventures all around. Also there was a mention of reservoirs very close by which we will take a walk to next time we go!!! Can’t wait.

Wow, what a wonderful couple of nights away. Only had a couple of nights that all the family were free, so decided to try Glamping to reduce the packing up and down in two nights from our usual camping trips. Was so worth the extra cost. This place was absolutely fantastic. Such a beautiful space and surroundings. Total peace and tranquility, all the facilities you would need. Loved playing guitar round the fire pit, watching the full moon ride. Thank you Shayne and Nathan for a wonderful getaway. We'll be back.
