If you do like to be beside the seaside, you'll love Hillside Glamping Holiday's iconic position close to the Welsh Coast and lovely Rhossili Bay. It's set in the rural finery of the Gower AONB, tempting you to try a range of fully equipped safari tents that sleep six and offer ensuite facilities - some also include their own wood fired hot tub!

About Hillside Glamping Holidays

Just a quick drive from the attractive shores of Rhossili Bay is this rural gem. You'll be sleeping in the Gower AONB, surrounded by views that make it all worthwhile. When the city calls, Swansea is just over half an hour away in the car and on the way there are many exciting stops. The farm is situated on 175 acres of stunning farmland. Its history dates back to 1840 and is a real family affair. Lambing is the season from March to May, and you'll be welcome to bottle feed the newborns. Just like in the New Forest, here in Wales you'll also encounter horses and cattle roaming free, as locals have ancient rights to graze over the common land - something that contributes to the unique natural environment. Glamping accommodation is set within a three acre field not far from the farmhouse, looking out over the atmospheric Gower Peninsula and reaching towards the unbeatable Welsh Coast. The safari tents sleep six, ideal for families, and are fully furnished with beds, a bathroom with walk in shower and electricity, kitchen, dining area, wood burning stove and heated panels throughout. If that's not luxurious enough, wood fired hot tubs are available in each one of the safari tents on site! You'll find them sheltered so they can be enjoyed no matter the weather.

Open from 20 March to 29 September

You'll be staying within the Gower AONB here, and the spectacular Welsh coast sits in easy reach from the site too, with the popular beach at Llangennith just over two miles away and, further afield, Rhossili Bay (10.6 miles) - don't miss the Helvetia shipwreck. The Gower Peninsula is an idyllic landscape to explore, with a range of routes ideal for mountain biking on Rhossili Down as well as scenic treks up Llanmadoc Hill.


All around the farm there's glorious countryside just begging to be trodden, paced and explored. Walking routes are pretty in every direction and if you reach the bay, you'll be rewarded with 15 miles of glorious coastline.

Mountain bike trails over Rhossili Down will put your skills to the test with inclines, swoops and fun descents over a landscape that looks breathtaking.

The Llangennith and Rhossili beaches are deservedly popular and several local beaches welcome dogs in the summer months, so you can bring your four legged friend for romps and games in the sand. There are top surfing beaches too, so bring your board.

Not far along the bay is the shipwreck of the Helvetia, an icon of the area and ideal Instagram spot. It looks romantic as it emerges from the waves and tells a story of 19th century seafaring woes.
