Key Points

Glamping site near the Welsh border that offers a plethora of different properties affiliated with nature and being at one with the world. Mother Earth is an incredible space that has been created out of the ground offering wonderful views of the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons and sleeps up to 6 guests.

Mother Earth is a truly unique property. Created from the earth where it stands it offers a true connection to nature with its wood and mud structure and grassy roof. Inside you can discover a simple yet cosy space with a central dome to let sunshine in. There is a raised double bed, 2 singles in alcoves, 1 single under the double plus an antique reclining Edwardian deck chair. The woodburner helps to keep you cosy and boil the kettle whilst the cooking facilities are outside under the eaves of the house.

Out front the decked area offers a place to enjoy a morning cuppa or evening tipple whilst admiring the views. If you want cooling down (or warming up!) then jump in the whisky barrel and adjust the water temperature as necessary! The decked area joins a boardwalk to your wash basin, compost loo and shower.

Locally you can walk the famous Offa's Dyke Path, visit the Small Breeds Farm Park and Owl Centre or take a trip to the literary Hay-on-Wye. Here you can drive up to the Bluff, only 8 minutes from Hay, to the top of the Black Mountains with breath taking views and walks. Alternatively take to the water and try your hand at canoeing - a fun and unique experience for everyone. The Warren is a riverside beach accessible from Hay-on-Wye, with its expanse of fields along the River Wye. Food buffs will enjoy a delicious meal at Rhydspence Inn which is just a 40 minute stroll away through the country lanes, the perfect way to work up an appetite.

Should the temperatures drop below freezing point, it is most likely that there will be no water from taps, in that case we will top all outdoor tubs with water ahead of freezing, and provide drinking water in glass bottles and fill thermoses from the house tap (drinking water), and you can heat up water to wash up on stoves. However this is an extreme scenario which has not happened in recent years.

There is a Wood fired Norwegian Sauna on site, this can be fired on request for £10 each session of 1 hour, for each bubble of people...... this is proving very popular and what better way to celebrate !!!
