Heartwood Treehouse at Oaklands Glamping

• Sleeps: 2
• Bedroom: 1
• Bathroom: 1
• Minimum stay: 2 nights

From sumptuous furnishings and private facilities, to those wonderful holiday ‘extras’, you’ll find every last detail has been carefully thought out at Oaklands Glamping.

Delightfully secluded in the Powys hamlet of Llangyniew, the vast grounds are both beautifully lush and rich in wildlife.  That means magnificent valley views are guaranteed from both inside and out.

Bespoke-crafted, adults-only Heartwood Treehouse is an ideal escape for couples who want to leave dull everyday life firmly on the ground. Expertly constructed by hand and set within the trees for glorious south-facing scenery, there’s plenty of intricate detail to cast your eyes upon as you ascend the grand staircase.

Why not begin your break by enjoying a sizzling barbecue on the enormous, panoramic oak tree decking, as you survey all the beauty of the Welsh countryside and the sparkling Banwy River below?

(The views are so breathtaking here, in fact, that many guests have commented how even the photos don’t do them justice.  And with no restrictions from that all-encompassing decking, you’ll find it extremely difficult to choose a favourite viewing spot.  Prepare to be seriously wowed!)

Later, as the first stars make their appearance in the evening sky, a soothing dip in your private wood-fired hot tub has to be the ultimate in relaxation (particularly when accompanied with a glass of bubbles!)  You’ll even find the tub blissfully pre-warmed and ready for your arrival.

Inside, a cosy leather sofa is ideally placed by the huge windows for you to enjoy that incredible rural vista, with a crackling log burner to keep you warm.  There’s a fully-fitted kitchen with Welsh slate worktops and sleek, high-end appliances – dishwasher included – and a flat-screen TV to keep you entertained once the sun has set.

Steeped in luxury, the kingsize bed guarantees a sound night’s sleep, and there’s a freestanding bath nestled right under the picture window for before-bedtime bubble-soaks.  You’ll also have a walk-in rainfall shower to refresh and rejuvenate after a long day of exploring… or doing absolutely nothing!

As the sun begins its ascent into the morning sky, you can savour a Nespresso coffee and marvel at your good holiday fortune.  The shops aren’t far away, so there’ll be plenty of scope to find delicious, locally-sourced breakfast items – and perhaps a few treats for the campfire later on!

If you’re feeling a little more energetic, you’ll soon discover plenty to see and do in the surrounding area, from stunning gardens and stately homes, to windswept coastlines and beaches… all accessible within an hour’s drive. To start you off, why not take a nostalgic trip on the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway, then walk in royal shoes with a visit to Powis Castle?  You could also pack a picnic and head for Pistyll Rhaeder waterfall, considered to be one of the seven wonders of Wales.

However you decide to spend your time, returning to the welcoming atmosphere at Oaklands is sure to warm your holiday soul.
