Sleep in the trees.
Wake to the woods.
Three handbuilt treehouses and six canvas bell tents, scattered through forty acres of ancient Welsh woodland. Wood-fired hot tubs steaming under the canopy. Outdoor kitchens lit by lanterns. No wifi, no signal, no rush.
3 Treehouses/6 Bell Tents/40 Acres of Woodland/Wood-Fired Hot Tubs
01 · The Woodland
Forty acres of quiet, somewhere west of Hay-on-Wye.
Wildwood is what happened when we stopped trying to make a holiday park and started listening to the trees. The treehouses were built by a local carpenter using oak and larch felled from the wood itself. The bell tents were pitched in clearings the deer had already chosen. We have a generator we’ve never used — everything runs on the sun and the stove.
02 · The Site
Nine pitches, spread far apart.
You won’t see another tent from your tent. The pitches are spaced through the woodland with at least sixty paces between them. The clearings, the stream and the bathing decks are shared — everything else is yours alone.

Elder Bell Tent
A romantic two-person setup on the high meadow. Outdoor copper bath, fire pit, and the best stars on site — no light for fifteen miles.
£95 / nightBook →
04 · In The Trees
Wood-fired tubs. Lit at dusk.
Every treehouse and two of the bell tents have their own cedar hot tub. We light them an hour before sunset so you can climb in as the trees go black against the sky. It takes a couple of logs and a bit of patience. That’s rather the point.

05 · What's Nearby
Beyond the treeline.
01
Brecon Beacons
Twenty minutes by car to the foot of Pen y Fan. We’ll pack you a flask and point you at the quiet path up.
02
Llangorse Lake
Wild swimming, paddleboards and an honest pub on the shore. Fifteen minutes through the lanes.
03
Hay-on-Wye
The town of books. Thirty minutes east — second-hand bookshops, a Saturday market, three good cafes.
04
Forest Bathing
Forty acres of mixed woodland to wander, with marked trails to a hidden waterfall and a buzzard’s lookout.
05
Stargazing
Inside the Brecon Beacons International Dark Sky Reserve. On a clear night the Milky Way runs straight overhead.
06
Local Larder
Eggs from the farm next door, sourdough from the village baker, lamb from the valley. Hampers can be ready on arrival.
06 · Off-Grid
Run on sunlight, kept by a single family.
Solar panels on the kitchen pavilion power the lights, the fridges and a single charging point per pitch. Water is from our own borehole, filtered and tested twice a year. Heat is wood — coppiced on a fifteen-year rotation from the southern half of the wood. We’re proud holders of Visit Wales Gold for sustainability.

We’d been to Center Parcs, Forest Holidays, the lot. Wildwood is something else entirely — you actually feel like you’ve gone somewhere. The kids didn’t ask for a screen once. Best three nights we’ve had in years.
