Camping Pods

We have two cosy camping pods Sky and Olive here at Brynglas Retreat.

Both are mounted on fully restored traditional farm trailers, each with its own decking area at the front taking in the stunning views down towards our stream and the hill beyond.

Your own personal BBQ is by the car parking space outside and the shared toilet/washroom is just 25 yards away.

Inside your Pod, there is a cosy double bed – solar-powered lighting (with phone charging point) a table, two chairs and a classic wood burner lookalike gas heater!

We provide a single ring camping stove and kettle with plates, bowls, mugs, cutlery, glasses and washing up bowl and tea towel to help you on your way!

There is also a water carrier to be used during your stay and each morning at 8-30 we deliver a thermos of boiling hot water outside your door for you to enjoy your first cuppa of the day outside on the amazing decking area!
