Add your business details

Cwm Tawel site is based in a secluded farm valley. We have not overdeveloped the site for camping use in order to leave a rustic feeling with grass paths and wooded areas; in places the terrain is uneven so please make sure all members of your party are aware of this and wear suitable footwear. We offer glamping style yurt holidays for weekend and midweek breaks. We have an undercover firepit and cob pizza oven in our round house. We have wood burning hot tub State of the art compost toilets and hot showers are also available to all our guests. For cooking meals, there is also a fully-furnished indoor kitchen and a wood-burning Rayburn - or you can build your own outside campfire.
