Top of the Woods

Warmth, wildlife and a friendly sense of community await, at an eco award-winning Pembrokeshire camp-and-glamp site.

There's a lot of heart to be found at Top of the Woods - an impossibly soothing, enduringly soulful camp-and-glamp site located by the Pembrokeshire National Park.

Friendly owners Soo and Jon fell in love with this beautiful mix of wildlife-steeped meadow and woodland as soon as they saw it. So they got straight to work on creating a magical space filled with eco-friendly accommodation, relaxation, and reconnection - both with nature and each-other!

The ideal escape from hectic everyday life, Top of the Woods is the proud winner of a Green Key environmental tourism award, as well as being recommended by The Times as one of Britain's "coolest places to stay".

Find out why, by choosing from four types of eco-luxe accommodation, each one packed with thoughtful attention to detail, and spaced across 27 acres of gorgeously green space.

The 6.3m Nature Domes each sleep up to four guests, with sustainable wooden flooring, contemporary furniture, and wildflower meadow-framed views of the National Park built right in! 

The Eco Boutique Safari Lodges are ideal for families, each sleeping up to six guests amongst plenty of designer space.  Relax on your veranda as you listen to the morning birdsong with that first coffee of the day - bliss.

Meanwhile, if you prefer to unleash that inner frontier spirit of yours, the Pioneer Camps sleep up to four guests in two bedrooms, while the Meadow Camping pitches are set amongst four acres of wildflower meadow (you can even hire a pre-pitched bell tent if you don't fancy struggling with your own!)

Top of the Woods' philosophy is all about celebrating life in all its simplest, natural, and most pleasurable forms - so if you're just looking for somewhere to watch TV, or plug in your hair straighteners, this may not be the place for you.  

Yet that doesn't mean you'll be short on luxuries, as everything you'll need is provided...from kitchen supplies, downy bedding, and Welsh woollen blankets, to solar fairy lights and firewood.  Generous facilities are provided too, including luxurious ‘wet room' showers with skylight roofs.

To get your day off to the very best of starts, why not head over to the Dutch Barn - otherwise known as the bustling camp hub - and make new friends over a delicious locally-sourced breakfast?  (You can charge any devices here too, if you really need to!)  

Since a holiday is all about that lovely feeling of being looked after, you can even organise a ‘Drive Time Stew', complete with fresh bread and jacket potatoes, all ready for when you check in.

There's plenty to do during the day, from meeting the friendly resident animals (Soo and Jon's loveable dog Dylan takes a morning walk each day and is very happy for you to join him!), curling up with a book in the ‘Hide and Seek' willow garden, following the Secret Waterfall Trail, or even learning a new skill such as bushcraft.

All that's left to do is gather around the crackling Courtyard Communal Firepit by evening, and share your holiday stories as you toast marshmallows under the stars.  

Finally, it's time to breathe out, slow down and revel in the natural life - something we all deserve every now and again!
