About Clwydian Glamping Pods and Campsite
Set on a working sheep and cattle farm, this small and quiet camping and glamping site offers an idyllic getaway in the heart of North Wales. Just five minutes from the Clwydian Range And Dee Valley Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is the perfect base for days of walking, hiking or cycling. Tent campers are welcome across the site's three non electric 5m x 5m grass pitches. Each pitch allows up to five guests with plenty of space for games and setting up your table and chairs. If glamping is more your style, the site also has four camping pods which can sleep up to five guests, Inside you will find a double bed, along with a single bed and a bench seat that converts into a small double. Foam mattresses are provided but you will need to bring your own bedding. The pods also come equipped with an ensuite loo, kitchenette with a kitchen sink, fridge and kettle for your morning coffee. To keep you cosy even on those cooler nights, the pods are fully insulted with double glazing and an electric radiator. Outside, you will also have a picnic bench for al fresco dining, along with a BBQ/fire pit for cooking up a delicious meal. For those camping, fire pits and chimineas can also be hired from the site, perfect for an evening of toasting marshmallows. Four legged friends are also welcome to join you on your stay, with up to two allowed per pitch or pod. Exclusive 'Whole of Site' bookings are commonplace, whereby extended family or friends book the whole site (four pods) for a group gathering. The summerhouse on site is a great place to set-up the buffet or congregate if the weather isn't great outside.
Clwydian Glamping Pods and Campsite is open all year round in 2024 and 2025.
Site facilities include two toilets, three showers and three wash basins. There is a communal kitchen with a microwave, fridge, countertop oven, two hob rings, cutlery and crockery. Fire pits and chimineas are also available to hire.

We just returned from our stay at Clwydian Glamping Pods and Campsite and were absolutely thrilled with the experience. The trip was myself and my husband and our young son. We hadn't been to a campsite with the little one before and thought maybe the pods/cabins would be a nice stepping stone to "proper" camping and we were absolutely right. Between the toilet, sinks, fridge, kettle etc in the pods and the separate shower block with extra toilets etc, the site had everything we needed. Raymond was an excellent host (Rose was away on holiday!) and we lacked nothing. Everything was super clean. The beds were comfy. You can take sheets/duvet/pillow with you or just a sleeping bag. There were 4 plug outlets you can use for any devices you can't do without. We took a fan as it was hot weather throughout our stay and the extra breeze was welcome when we were putting our son to bed while it was still daylight, but the pods have 3 windows that open (a 4th in the bathroom) so I am sure most people can manage without fans and stuff like that, it cools down quickly at night time if you open the door for a bit. I recommend to take marshmallows so you can toast them on the fire pit. There's a small fee for use of the fire pit and a sack of logs. If you have a portable BBQ you might want to take one if grilled sausages & burgers are a big part of your plans, but Raymond did have a spare one that none of the others had borrowed yet, so we got lucky even though we were disorganised! I really hope we can go back as we had a lovely holiday.
Excellent break away

We loved our break in one of the pods. The site is small and is very quiet. Tucked away down narrow country lanes, it’s out of the way but near enough to travel to local towns like Llangollen and Ruthin. Some footpaths are near for exploring too. The amenities are excellent and everything was clean and tidy. Rose and Ray are a lovely couple and we would be very happy to stay there again.
Perfect stay
