Larkhill Tipis

Top choice in Swansea, The Gower & Carmarthenshire


Chickens and ducks escort guests around the fairy-lit grounds of this off-the-grid glamping site, set in farmland and a four-acres wood. Five styles of tent are available, from Iranian to Native American, and all are comfortably furnished with their own beds, gas cookers and wood fires. In a remote spot 7 miles southeast of Newcastle Emlyn, it's a wonderland for families.
