Where to Stay?
Nestled amidst the picturesque Welsh countryside, Erw Glas Glamping and Camping offers the perfect getaway for families seeking a unique and memorable outdoor experience in the Conwy Valley. From the comfort of charming bell tents to thrilling adventures at nearby attractions this is the ultimate destination for those who crave both relaxation and excitement.
At Erw Glas, you'll discover a different kind of camping experience, one that combines the serenity of nature with the comfort of modern amenities. Alongside traditional camping pitches, you'll also find shepherd huts and bell tents offering cozy and spacious accommodation for families.
Bell Tent Retreats
We stayed in a bell tent, which was elegantly furnished with comfortable bedding, allowing you to sleep soundly under the starlit Welsh sky. You'll find electric lighting, charging points, and even a small table and chairs for those moments of indoor relaxation. It's camping, but without the fuss of setting up your own tent!
The communal areas at E Erw Glas are equally well presented. There's a communal kitchen equipped with everything you need for cooking up a delicious family meal, which is shared between two bell tents. The site also boasts clean and modern shower facilities, ensuring a comfortable stay for all.
