Description:

Ardwyn camping pod, situated up steps above the main camping area, facilities and car park, offers something a little bit different. Made by Microlodge in Scotland, who also made our toilet/shower units, this camping pod offers built-in beds with two comfortable foam mattresses (*see below). The pod has also been successfully occupied by 2 adults with 2 small infants, and 2 adults and 1 young child (*see below; occupies the whole pod). There is plenty of storage, a small electric panel radiator for cooler nights, a fan in warm weather, as well as lighting and electric sockets.

Ideal for backpackers, older children who are part of a family group, and couples wanting a secluded romantic weekend break. There are beautiful views with the Black Mountains in the distance, and integrated seating along the front of the camping pod or a picnic bench where you can sit and enjoy the scenery, or use the BBQ fire bowl. If you have a hammock, there are two trees just above the pod that should be suitable for hanging it between. There is also space to pitch a small tent if required (book as an extra). This camping pod is also dog friendly.

​What else you need to know:

• *This pod comes with two foam mattresses that can be set as a double or a twin. For children please bring an extra mattress to extend the double bed to a triple bed (occupies almost all of the pod), or to put on the floor between the twin beds for your child/children to sleep on.
• ​You should be under 6ft tall to be comfortable staying in this pod.
• You will not be able to park beside this pod, so make sure you are willing and able to carry your belongings.
• There are no toilet facilities next to this pod.
• There are steps to reach this pod. The steps are shallow, and there are approx. 60 of them, followed by a small gate and then a grassy path (10 metres) to reach the camping pod itself.
• The path is only lit as far as the top of the steps so please bring a torch. 
• This pod is in an exposed location so if bad weather is expected please come prepared. 
• There are often sheep grazing in the field with this pod. Please wear sensible footwear. ​
• ​If you are bringing dog/s too, then please be aware that (as per our Dog Policy), they must be under control and on a lead at all times - there may be livestock nearby and our own farm dogs too. 
• We do not allow open fires or BBQ's that will scorch the grass (keep them off the ground). Open flames should also be kept well away from the pod, and away from the grass bank in dry weather.
• Check-in is anytime after 3pm. Arrivals between 12:30pm and 3pm need to book early arrival as an extra. No arrivals before 12:30pm or after 11pm. We would recommend arriving in daylight if possible.  ​
