Creature comforts
Enjoy the comforts of home in nature — including real toilets, showers, and kitchen.
Glamping on a former farm and working mill with a private lake, plenty of space to explore and stunning views across the Welsh countryside

Planning a glamping site may seem simple at first – buy some accommodation, fill it with the most luxurious items you can find and install some plush facilities – but the reality of blending these comforts with the back-to-nature camping ethos is easier said than done. How refreshing it is, then, to find a site as subtly sublime as Sloeberry Farm in West Wales – a place where glamping is done right.

The first thing that strikes you about the place when you arrive is the sheer space of it all. The buttercup-dotted meadows and naturally irregular lines of mature trees seem to have been left to their own devices. Bushes bulge and tiny birds flitter along the hedge lines. For children, the exploration opportunities are endless.

The accommodation, meanwhile, seems to fit within the space just as a harmoniously as a herd of cows might have done some years ago. There are a couple of timber cabins and four ginormous canvas lodges, built of wood and a forest-green canvas that camouflages them among the surroundings. Although the accommodation, with private facilities and hot tubs, is comfortably and undeniably glamping, it retains the rustic vibe of a good old-fashioned farm campsite with ample space to roam. Little wonder then that Sloeberry Farm has been awarded the prestigious Gold Award by Visit Wales.

Each of the cabins and lodges features comfy made-up beds, a fully-equipped kitchen, old-style lanterns and a log-burning stove. And outside every one has a private wood-fired hot tub, picnic table, barbecue and fire pit. Crucially each has its own facilities too — en suite for the lodges which can sleep up to six and just out back of the cabins which cater to families of up to four.

From the farm you can join local lanes and footpaths heading down to the coast – it's about a three-mile walk all the way down to Aberporth beach. Or you can drive there and enjoy a walk along the coastal path instead. The choice is yours but when you stay at Sloeberry Farm you’re certainly starting in the right place!

Otter Lodge with wood fired hot tub

88%
(4)
Safari tent · Sleeps 6
After a long day exploring the area or walking by the coast our lodges are designed to be the perfect base to come back to, sit back, relax and take in the sunset across the lake. Sleeping Each lodge sleeps up to 6 (groups containing 3 or more adults only by prior arrangement) and 1 dog. There is a large master bedroom with a king bed, a bunk bed room sleeping 2 (with full size bunkbed), and a king cabin bed for those that want to hideaway. All with proper beds made up with luxurious linensuperwarm duvets. Everyone will be lulled to sleep by the sounds of the otter brook burbling past. Behind the bedrooms is shower room and separate cloak room with basin and flushing toilet.  Please contact us if you would like a different arrival day or trip length or check SloeberryFarm.com. Cooking The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you should need including a gas hob, sink, cooking utensils, pots, pans, crockery, cutlery and glassware. Each lodge has an allocated fridge based in the cabin and is equipped with a cold locker if you want to bring some cold blocks. Across from the kitchen area is a full size dining table great for a long lingering supper. Relaxing Our lodges are lit with solar lighting, at the heart of the lodge is our wood burning stove, surrounded by vintage leather chesterfields: it will keep the lodge warm in all weathers and is the perfect spot to finish the evening. Outside There is large raised deck area at the front of the lodge with stunning views across the coastal hills, where better to sit with a glass of wine and a book on a summer afternoon. Relax in the private wood fired hot tub.  outside is a picnic table, firepit and BBQ for campfire cooking or as evening settles sitting by a crackling log fire whilst gazing at the stars across the immense West Wales night sky. Questions and FAQs What else should I bring along? Bring a picnic rug if you fancy a picnic in the wild-flower meadow or by the stream. A few extra torches are handythe lodges but there is no ambient lighting around the farm at night so a good torch is great for finding your way and making sure you don’t step on a frog in your flip flops. A couple of extra boxes of matches, someone always misplaces the lighters we provide and you don’t want to be flameless as night draws in.Evenings are longer without the distraction of TV and internet so some games to play as a family are always a good idea and bring along your favourite books to read by lamplight. Food (obviously) and maybe some essential store items, salt, pepper, butter, oil if you are going in for some proper camp cooking, and maybe marshmallows for toasting on the fire. But don’t go overboard the nearest supermarket is only 10mins away.Will I be warm enough ? Our lodges are very luxurious, weatherproof, windproof and equipped with thick warm duvets and but its still made of wood and canvas, so if you’re prone to feeling the cold pyjamas are good for bedtime and its worth packing a wellies, a coat and a few jumpers just in case the British summer weather isn’t so summery, layering is key. Can I bring my dog? Dogs are always welcome by arrangement at Sloeberry Farm, all we ask is you keep them on a short lead at all times and clean up all dog mess straight away so another guest doesn’t stand in it. Are the showers hot and what about the loos?A hot shower is crucial after a day out on the beach, all of our showers supply a limitless amount of hot water (no putting 50p in a meter which runs out just when you have got your shampoo in) and all of our toilets are modern flushing variety. Can I have a campfire?In our opinion campfires are a key part of camping. Not only do they offer warmth, and an atmospheric backdrop to an evening but they also provide plenty of heat for cooking. Each lodge has its own fire pit with access to a good supply of firewood which you can buy daily on site. Be it baking potatoes, toasting marshmallows or cooking a cowboy chilli, as the stars start to twinkle, the camp fire becomes the centrepiece of your evening.  Only logs provided by or purchased at Sloeberry Farm can be used on the campfires, wood burners and hot tubs. Is there electricity to power my hairdryer, straighteners etc?Sloeberry Farm is a mains electricity free experience so as well as having slightly frizzy hair, there’s no internet, TV, email or games consoles to be distracted by.

Otter Lodge with wood fired hot tub
We loved the canvas Lodge and the hot tub. It was clean, amenities were excellent and no electricity was great as the kids had to plan out their screen time. Loved that we could have the dog with us too! Beautiful area and lots to do.

Badger Lodge with wood fired hot tub
Stayed in Badger Safari lodge, which was excellent. The lodges are all spread out to allow each family/group to enjoy themselves whilst having plenty of privacy. Log fired hot tub is excellent to wind down and relax after a day walking along the local cliff tops. Beds were really comfy, and the log burner and Chesterfield sofa were great for a cosy autumn night. Accommodation is well stocked with all the essentials and owners are really pleased to help and offer help or recommendations of places to visit. Will definitely book another stay!

Badger Lodge with wood fired hot tub
We enjoyed our late summer stay in Badger Lodge, the wood burning stove ensured that we were warm when the temperature dropped in the evening. Watching the moon rise while lounging in the hot tub was perfect. The lodge is situated in lovely surroundings and has everything required for a pleasant stay. My only suggestion is that perhaps a teapot would be a nice addition!

Owl Lodge with wood fired hot tub
Our safari tent was furnished to a very high standard throughout. Plenty of hot water for showers and dishes and plenty of light provided by solar powered lamps - not very bright but we didn't pick a secluded spot in the country to sit indoors with bright lights on! Wood fire hot tub takes a while to heat up but be careful not to overstock it with wood as you can end up with a tub that's too hot! Ours was still plenty warm enough to use again the following morning. You do get through the wood as you want it for hot tub, log burner and firepit but the prices charged by the site are quite reasonable really (roughly the same as buying from a supermarket or garage). Lots of wildlife about including various birds and bats and I caught badger, fox and polecat (plus lots of rabbits) on my trail cam (an added reason to keep dogs on leads on the site!). It was far from the cheapest getaway we've had but I can't fault the location, facilities or quality of the tents / lodges. We'll cretainly be considering returning soon. Thanks all at Sloeberry Farm.

Had a wonderful time at this beautiful and secluded farm. The setting is absolutely perfect and the peace and quiet after the last 18 months were exactly what we all needed. The tent was wonderful and so luxurious - and it had absolutely everything we needed - even a flushing toilet and a hot shower - the water pressure was spot on too! I think we took up every single one of the hosts food and activity recommendations. Highly recommend.

Amazing experience at Sloeberry. From the meet and greet at the start to the attention to detail throughout. We loved moving our luggage by wheelbarrow to start to the final fire on the last night. Very attentive hosts would totally recommend.

Spent a glorious week at Sloeberry in one of the new cabins (having stayed before in a lodge). The cabin is spacious and very well kitted out (and the fact the kids slept longer than ever before is testament to the comfy beds!)…the short hop to the private facilities (very clean and well maintained) was about the only little reminder that we were glamping! Thanks to the great weather we were able to have some amazing barbecues on the barrel barbecue. It’s a beautiful spot to see amazing sunsets, then light the fire pit and sit an gaze at the incredible collection of stars in the sky (thoroughly recommend downloading the SkyView star guide app!). Great base from which to explore the abundance of beaches and other activities. Can’t wait to go back.

We’ve been to Sloeberry Farm before. We’ve now stayed in the lodge tents, bell tents and now, most recently the new cabins. The surroundings are epic with great views, peace and quiet, and amazing hospitality. The cabin provided a great base with comfortable beds and ample facilities in keeping with the glamping theme. Close to beaches and with shops a short drive away it’s got all our family of four (2 under 12) could need. We will be back.

We stayed in Otter lodge and it was the break we have been craving after the last 18months. A perfect location to enjoy the beauty of Wales and relax and connect as a family. Staff are fantastic and so professional, lodges are perfect and maintained. We have decided to make this a yearly holiday. Couldn't recommend staying here more!

I am almost reluctant to share how lovely this place is in case it becomes so popular we can’t get any bookings in future! The lodge provides everything you could need for a camping getaway with a luxurious feel. The hot tub was the highlight but things like running hot water and an awesome shower in the lodge made for a truly comfortable stay. The hosts couldn’t be more helpful and the setting is private and scenic, but close enough to the shops and some gorgeous beaches to give you the opportunity to make the most of your time in this stunning area. We will most definitely be rebooking.

We had a wonderful time, Shaun and Jo were so welcoming and nothing was to much trouble for them. The safari tent has everything that you need, hot tub was great even in October ! Sitting in there with the stars out at night was a great experiance. Surroundings were so peaceful good place to get away from the hustle of normal life. We are looking forward to going back already!

Myself, my boyfriend and our dog have just spent 3 nights at Sloeberry Farm and are already dreaming of going back! It looks just like the photos on their website, beautiful setting with gorgeous bell tents and amazing sunsets. You are provided with all the essentials you need, we couldn’t believe how much cutlery and kitchen utensils you are supplied with! We loved cooking in the outdoor kitchen and over the barrel bbqs. Toilets are clean and showers are warm and fresh drinking water is supplied all within a very short walk from your tent. Due to covid we had a check in time to avoid contact with other guests, the owners talked us through all the guidelines and said for us to text them if we need anymore charcoal or logs dropped off at our tent - we done this many times and came home each time to find we very tjing we needed. Also due to covid you are only sharing the bell tent field with one other tent which was at the other side, we loved the privacy this allowed us and we felt comfortable talking late into the evening knowing we weren’t disturbing anyone. We will definitely be back and I will recommend Sloeberry to all, it was a very welcoming place and we were given many tips for good walks near by. Thankyou for a memorable glamping trip!

We absolutely loved it here. Everything about the booking process was spot on - kept informed, and provided with plenty of information. A few days before, we were contacted to arrange the deposit ready for our stay, which was so convenient, as it gave us one less thing to worry about on the day. We were escorted to our lodge, and had a full run through of what to do/ what not to do/ how to use and where to find things we would need. Everything was covered but the assurance that we were able to contact them by text or phone was really good. Location was perfect for us - short journey from a supermarket, short journey from the beaches. The only issues we had were through our own personal fault of simply not booking a long enough stay to enjoy everything we wanted to enjoy, but next time, we will definitely book longer! We even had a little black cat visit us each night, which was lovely in itself as we have a black cat of our own and they looked very alike! All in all, everything was perfect and we loved everything. Thanks for everything, and we look forward to booking our next stay with you!

We stayed in Otter Lodge with our dogs in September 2019. The whole experience was wonderful in every way, the site itself is beautiful, the lodge very comfortable and very well equipped and thought out. The area is stunning, wonderful beaches and beautiful countryside. Jo and Shaun were really welcoming and gave us some great tips of where to go and what to see. We would highly recommend a stay at Sloeberry Farm, there is nothing not to love about it!

My girls & I stayed in a Bell Tent whilst my sister & family stayed in Badger Lodge. The cousins had an amazing time exploring, having wheel barrow races and no TV so lots of outdoor games. Jo & Shaun were absolutely amazing hosts and looked after our every need. There are so many beautiful beaches nearby that were dog friendly, I can recommend Poppit Beach & Mwnt to name a few. Jo & Shaun were great at suggesting place to go whether beaches, best ice cream or fish & chips (Lime Crab in New Quay, loved it!) Before we left both my girls were asking to come back again next year, that has to be the best review of the children loved it! Thanks so much Jo & Shaun, you have an amazing place. Johanna xxx

We enjoyed staying at Sloeberry Farm a lot. It is close enough to beach and town to keep the kids busy and eat out and having a hot tub to use almost at any weather was plus! It was our first holiday in this type of setting and was very good experience. The only disadvantage was that the tent makes too much noise when it is a bit windy. Though, the safari tenants are very solid and spacious. Not to forget the beds and bedding were very comfortable! Overall very very nice holiday and I recommend it to any people who want to have different holiday!

This is a beautiful, clean place and a great location. This was our first experience of glamping and we are so happy we chose to stay at Sloeberry Farm. Shaun was super friendly and he gave us some great recommendations on places to eat and see! We had BBQ every night, all the equipment provided was great and the kids loved toasting marshmallows. The sunset view was beautiful and great to sit back and relax after a busy day exploring. The kids loved running free in the big field and where super excited to have donkeys in the field next to us. The showers and toilet are clean and nice hot water. There is even a phone charging point that came in handy! They have though of everything here and we highly recommend.

What is not to love about Sloeberry Farm? Jo and Shaun were wonderful hosts, very welcoming who met us on arrival and took us to our bell tent. Inside the tents the beds were proper mattresses and lovely comfortable pillows and cozy duvets. Outside, we had a fire pit (with wood and fire lighters which we’d prebooked) complete with grill for cooking but we also had our own propane outdoor hob which works in ALL weathers (and boy was it tested when we were there!) It meant I could make a cup of tea even when it was torrential rain and wind! Outside we had a cool box (cool packs provided) and other storage boxes with everything you could need for cooking up a banquet, including sharp knives, iron skillet, pots, pans and even an oven glove! The toilets and showers were the best I’ve seen on any campsite and the shower was lovely and warm and constant (no stop start or need to pay/put in tokens) as in some places. My kids loved exploring around the farm and loved all the space to run and play. They particularly enjoyed talking to the donkeys. Jo and Shaun have a fantastic no noise after 10pm policy which, as a family who enjoy a bit of peace in the evenings - we saw as a Godsend. The site is only small (consisting of 7 bell tents and 3 lodges) and there is good space between the tents but still, it was reassuring to know that we would get good restful sleep after a day on the beach. I wasn’t well whilst we were there and I’d like to extend even more thanks to Shaun and Jo in helping with getting me to the local health centre (who were fantastic). We loved it! We’ll be back.

We stayed at Owl Lodge in August 2019 & loved it! The lodge has been designed & styled so beautifully. The hot tub was great fun in the evenings & snuggling around the fire pit was a treat too. We loved exploring the area, so many gorgeous beaches & some fabulous restaurants. Highly recommend Sloeberry for a family holiday.

The Bell tent was the perfect size for a family of 4. The kids loved toasting marshmallows on the fire each evening. The donkeys and cats as well as the natural wildlife were fun for our two as well. The best showers and w/c facilities I have experienced whist camping. Beautiful beaches, the whole coastline within 30mins drive with a mix of seaside towns and unspoilt coves. Rain or shine just beautiful.

The owners of Sloeberry Farm take a personal interest in helping you enjoy a fun holiday. The tents are very well equipped with really comfortable beds and a short walk to civilised toilets and hot showers. There is lots of space to play games and good distance between tents to allow quiet and privacy. There is lots to do in the area especially on quiet sandy beaches. We really enjoyed the chance to relax while we saw others having family fun. Highly recommended. Many thanks to Shaun and Jo for making our stay such a great experience.

As I am not usually an outdoorsy person I was slightly nervous about the whole experience. However that changed from the moment we arrived. The staff are so friendly and helpful. On the site, the tents are spaced out so you are not overlooked by anyone else, all the essentials you need to have an enjoyable stay e.g. cookware, crockery, glasses, plates, bedding etc were provided. The communal toilets were clean and there was plenty of hot water from the showers. The scenery is so beautiful and the site is very peaceful. The site is close to the beach in aberporth and only a short drive away from Cardigan. The most important thing about this trip for me was spending quality time with my boyfriend where we would not have the usual distractions of t.v and mobile phones and that is exactly what we got. If you are looking to spend quality time with family and loved ones with zero day to day distractions then this is the place for you. Sloeberry Farm we will be back.

Coastal glamping at Sloeberry Farm, recently awarded Gold Glamping the highest possible by VisitWales as part of the Welsh Government Quality Assured Glamping Scheme. The farm is located close to Aberporth Beach near Cardigan in West Wales. The farm was founded in the early 1800s making use of the natural spring to power a mill and dairy. It sits in a sheltered spot with stunning views across the countryside and is a short drive to many local sandy beaches and coves. Sloeberry Farm Lodges and Cabins all with private facilities are located in 13 acres of pasture & woods, only 3 miles from the fishing village and stunning beaches of Aberporth and a short drive from the historic town of Cardigan. There is an EV charger onsite As we only have four lodges and in a different meadow a couple of cabins , peace, quiet and privacy have always been an integral part of a stay here at Sloeberry Farm. The canvas lodges sleep up to six people (max 3 adults) in a king bed, bunk beds, and a king-size cabin bed (note Owl Lodge sleeps up to eight (max 3 adults) in a king bed, king cabin bed and 4 single beds on a mezzanine floor). They're equipped with leather sofas, wood burners, dining tables and fully equipped kitchens. Each has a private shower room and en-suite washroom with basin and flushing toilet. Outside, each lodge has a picnic table, a private wood-fired hot tub, a firepit and a separate BBQ. Cabins are equipped with wood burners, dining tables and fully equipped kitchens, with a BBQ/firepit, picnic table and private wood fired hot tub outside . In the bedroom, there is a king-sized bed and in a separate nook bunk beds to comfortably sleep a family of four. Behind each cabin there are huts created by a local craftsman housing a private toilet and hot showers. Sloeberry Farm is perfect for families and couples looking for a quiet relaxing break. Tents, campervans, caravans, large groups, stags and hens cannot be accommodated. If you can't find the dates you are looking for please check SloeberryFarm.com or contact us.
Nearby attractions

Lonely Planet recently voted Cardigan Bay "the best place to be in the world right now" and it certainly fits the bill with it's mix of fantastic beaches and coastal villages, yet still retaining a relatively uncrowded feel, especially out of peak season. Cliff walks on the coastal path, sandy bays and National Trust-owned beaches are the highlights. By car, the town of Cardigan is not far away, formed around a Norman castle which is open to the public and boasts a great café and frequent outdoor events. Nearby Cilgerran Castle (01239 621339) still welcomes visitors – its two massive drum towers dominate the surroundings. North, picture perfect New Quay has a cobbled stone harbour – with plenty of cafés and fantastic chippies, it's a great place to enjoy the views and spot the Cardigan Bay dolphins.

Food and drink

The nearest pub, the Penllwyndu Inn (01239 682533), is an easy mile and a half walk away – don’t be put off by the hangman's noose sign! There are plenty of other places to eat and drink within within easy striking distance but the nearest are either in Cardigan (five miles) or Aberporth (three miles). The former has plenty of choice, plus a supermarket for supplies, while the latter is slightly smaller but has a great fish and chip shop (01239 811003) next door to The Ship Inn (01239 810822), both of which have excellent views of the beach.
