The Safari Tent Accommodation

By the Wye is a camping holiday with one important difference, the treetop is already pitched when you arrive. Safari tents come with roaring campfires, beautiful beds, sumptuous sofas, running water, flushing toilets, eco-friendly toiletries and fully equipped kitchens. A holiday at By the Wye Treetop Glamping the ultimate in luxury glamping and is enough to tempt even the most reluctant of campers out into the woods on holiday. We have 5 tents sleeping 2-5 guests, 4 adults 1 child. Choose the one that best suits you - the Cwtch for couples only with a private sauna, Holly - set on its own, then the trio of Ash, Ivy and Meadow, the last two connected by a treetop walkway for larger family groups. Outside the glamping tent is a covered deck area with seating to make the most of the incredible riverside views, there is also a separate picnic table and fire pit for alfresco dining and cooking, except for The Ivy which has a BBQ on the deck instead of a firepit.

By the Wye Treetop Glamping in Hay on Wye is cosy, comfortable and environmentally sustainable being off grid with everything running from Solar Energy. The glamping site is designed to minimise impact on the environment in the surrounding woodland, as such many areas left been left untouched as nature reserves and SSSI’s attracting an abundance of wildlife.

Come for a Hay-Cation

The town of Hay on Wye is a stone’s throw from the glamping site. Situated on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park, Hay on Wye is famous as the town of books, and for the annual Hay Festival.

Today Hay-on-Wye – or Y Gelli Gandryll as it is known in the Welsh language – is friendly, lively and vibrant and, unsurprisingly for a town with such individuality and literary associations, is twinned with Timbuktu, which itself has the oldest Islamic library in the world.
