Swap the grind for riverside walks and evenings around the BBQ at this wonderful wooden glamping pod in Garth. Made for two, it’s a cosy Mid Wales base where you can pull on your walking boots, follow the River Irfon or head out by bike before returning to your own deck for a romantic dinner outdoors. It truly is escapism at its finest.
Inside, the hut feels bright, calm and refreshingly simple, with pale wood, soft colours and a curved ceiling that gives it plenty of character. Everything sits together in one cosy open-plan space, so you can cook, relax and fall asleep with the countryside just outside the patio doors. Unwind after a great day on the sofa, make a quick meal in the stylishly organised kitchenette, or sit with your loved one at the table for two. The decking is a highlight of this holiday home, with far-reaching countryside views that can be enjoyed while dining alfresco or using the brick-built BBQ. Tired heads are sure to be keen on the sumptuous double bed, and when you wake, refresh in your own private en-suite shower room.
As well as having numerous on-site facilities, including a laundrette, paddleboarding and fishing, this picturesque site benefits from easy access to the shores of the River Irfon for long, after-dinner strolls. You may even spot the resident otters and birdlife here. Treat yourselves to a meal out and a nosey around the shops in the bustling market town of Builth Wells (6 miles), while the friendly town of Rhayader (17 miles), which is known for its motorcycling routes, is home to the Red Kite Feeding Centre and is the gateway to the stunning Elan Valley Victorian dams.
