Fantastic hidden gem
We had the best few days away here! Myself, my husband (and our 2 dogs) just wanted a few days away from everything to relax and this place did not disappoint! The safari tent was lovely, with everything you could possibly need. The setting was very picturesque – next to a lake and surrounded by fields with the only sounds being from the birds and cows! We went on walks every day, all from our base and the scenery was great. There is a lovely little pub at the bottom of the hill to the site (Church house inn) with a big beer garden and a marquee so we could take the dogs – great service in here! The co-op and butchers are only a few min drive from the site so plenty of places to grab food to cook on the outdoor fire pit. The walk back up the hill is a bit of a killer but if you like walking then this is a great place to stay! We would definitely recommend staying here and would love to come back one day!
What an amazing break away that was đ
This was a brilliant break from start to finish! The safari tent was spacious and surprisingly cosy in the autumn weather. The hot tub was great fun to watch the stars from. You donât even realise other people are on the site it is so well designed. The only negative was that we had to leave .. book longer than you think you wantđ
Highly recommended!
We (my husband, our 6 month old baby and I) had a fantastic 2 night stay in a safari tent. The accommodation is clean, comfortable and super relaxing… we would have loved to stay longer! We were a bit concerned about having the baby with us but it was great! There is electricity, hot running water and the tent stays nice and warm.
Wonderful weekend away
We just spent 2 nights here and had a fantastic stay. The converted railway carriage was so lovely and comfortable, and had everything you need, the location was beautiful and quiet and the wood fired hot tub was a lovely treat. Would definitely recommend it. We did a lovely hike on the local area and would recommend the forest drive too.
Superb stay at beautiful location
I booked CYNEFIN one of the two refurbished railway carriages at Under The Oak for my partners 50th Birthday. Having just returned from our stay I would just like to say the following on our time there. The accommodation was excellent and completed to a high standard. The added bonus of the hot tub was just brilliant. I added in some of the packages available from the owners and they were just amazing. We certainly werenât going to go hungry!!! The romance package was a total surprise for my partner and again just so beautiful. Set in a lovely location it was just so chilling and a perfect way to round of my partners birthday. Thank you Lydia & Richard for a wonderful stay. Would highly recommend to friends and family.
Fab little hideaway!
A perfect little hideaway to get away from the world for a few nights. The accommodation is clean and comfortable (especially the very comfy and cosy bed). All you need is available. The hot tub is superb to relax in and the firepit with grill over is great for a BBQ and to keep you warm after a dip. It’s peaceful with a lovely view out over the landscape below which is great for the soul! We ventured to the pub (Church House Inn) at the bottom of the hill and enjoyed a lovely lunch, the food was great and the staff very friendly. The walk back up the hill was a lot harder than going down but the hot tub soothed the aching legs! Overall a great place to enjoy a few days relaxation. Thanks Under the Oak Glamping, we will definitely recommend you to our friends and family (actually, we already have) and will definitely be back in the future!
Beautiful Glamping and location
Amazing tents, Lydia and Richard have thought of everything. Stylish yet practical inside. Constant hot water and cosy when you get the wood burner on. Location is so pretty and beautiful views from our tent. We took the 6 man tent which worked well with 2 teenagers. Hot tub a big bonus too. Would highly recommend.
Amazing Glamping Holiday
We have just returned from a four night stay in the Dan Y Dderwen safari tent- what an amazing find this place is! The tent is spacious, well equipped and very clean. Our children loved the Welsh box bed with the twinkly lights and the beds were super comfy. The wood fired hot tub was wonderful, and Richard was very helpful when we struggled getting it going it one evening- it’s very easy once you get the hang of it! We found there was plenty to do in the area, only a half hour drive to Cardiff and a little further to some nice beaches. We also had a great morning at Mountain View Ranch (20 mins away) which had a Gruffalo trail- a big hit with our children. Thank you Lydia and Richard for a wonderful stay, we will definitely be returning!
lovely secluded place in the south of wales, amazing views and so nice and quiet.
We booked the shepherds hut as our ‘Mini Moon’ for 4 nights. We loved our 5 days in Wales and had a great stay. The little cabin was set under a large tree up the hill which had amazing views! It was so quiet and secluded surrounded by beautiful fields and the open countryside. So peaceful it was lovely to be away from the hustle of city life. The cabin had everything we needed – a little kitchen fully equipped and a bathroom. Outside we had a wood burning hot tub which was situated under fairy lights. The camp fire was great for cooking food and we BBQ’d most nights. We loved our stay. Richard and Lydia were very warm and friendly and welcomed us warmly when we arrived. The pub at the bottom of the hill is great for food and drink and Caerphilly is a short bus ride from the centre of the village. . We couldn’t recommend this place enough we enjoyed our mini moon a lot. Kind regards The Newlyweds.
Much more luxurious than I expected
We spent a great week here, as a family of 3 we had lots of space, lots of time to relax, enjoy the hot tub and explore the area. The kitchen was very well stocked and the beds were extra comfy. A great base for Bike Park Wales and Zipworld adventures. We would certainly like to return. A wonderful staycation luxury.
