Glamping with friends

Fforest Farm

Set among 200 acres near the River Teifi, just outside the town of Cardigan, Fforest Farm (coldatnight.co.uk) is a place where you can wake to the sound of birdsong. Lodging options include the Kata Cabins — half tents, half cabins — which can accommodate up to five people.

Anglesey Tipi & Yurt Holidays

This little enclave — situated just a short distance inland from the east coast of the biggest Welsh island — offers four yurts and a spacious, secluded tipi (angleseytipis.co.uk).

Apple Camping

A superbly quirky option close to Tenby, where you can sleep in yurts and dome-tents, but also The Jetstar, a converted private plane (applecamping.co.uk).

Boutique hideaways

Brown’s

The Carmarthenshire town of Laugharne is eternally associated with Dylan Thomas. Brown’s, whose bar was one of the poet’s favourite watering holes, trades happily on the connection. It was renovated as a 13-room retreat in 2012 (browns.wales).

St Brides Spa Hotel

Family-friendly retreats

Monmouthshire Cottages

These cosy boltholes are set in three locations across Monmouthshire. Tintern Abbey Cottage, with a delightful back garden, sleeps up to six, and is a good option for families (monmouthshirecottages.co.uk).
