Valley of the Cool Trees

4. Valley of the Cool Trees

England · 1 unit · Tent, Motorhome
Tucked deep in the heart of the South Wales forests, Valley of the Cool Trees is a private, off-grid group campsite set within a 1.5-acre wildflower meadow on our 19-acre smallholding. Here, you are truly immersed in nature. No roads, no traffic, no other people in sight, just the gentle sounds of birdsong and the whisper of the forest around you. The meadow offers generous space for tents, a small number of campervans, and touring caravans, with room for communal areas and group activities, all while feeling open, relaxed, and uncrowded. By day, enjoy sweeping valley views, and by night, the lack of light pollution makes it easy to spot the Milky Way overhead, creating a rare, unforgettable experience. Facilities are all within easy walking distance and include multiple compost toilets (4 total), a solar-powered outdoor hot shower, an outdoor field kitchen, BBQ, and fire pit. For wetter weather or evening gatherings, the 50-foot sheltered polytunnel provides a cozy space to relax, chill, and stay dry. It also features an additional indoor kitchen for extra cooking space, as well as a projector for films and plug sockets for charging phones or small devices, perfect for combining comfort with nature. The site is fully off-grid, with filtered spring water, solar-powered electricity, and fires for warmth and cooking. Everything is designed to keep the experience simple, low-impact, and deeply connected to the surrounding forest. Valley of the Cool Trees operates seasonally from April to October and is ideal for groups seeking privacy, space, and a truly rare immersion in nature, a place to escape, unwind, and enjoy a wildflower meadow in the heart of the forest.

Our first focus has been the fishing lake which we opened in March. The campsite followed in May. We are currently working on electric hook ups and other improvements. We have chickens on site that roam free during the day. They are friendly and like to wander around the tents to say hello to our guests! We would like everyone who visits to have a great time and a relaxing break. Whilst here please be considerate towards others, to their property, and while using the facilities.
