West Wales
5 days, 4 nights
Join us for an immersive break full of Welsh history, legend and culture. Your stunning and
secluded award-winning glamping accommodation, a “pop-up” hotel in lush West Wales,
is within National Trust land and has never before been slept upon! Your one-off itinerary
has been crafted just for you to ensure a unique, irreplaceable experience!
Monday
Arrive at your private group glamping site from 3pm where you will be checked in by the on-site staff. You will have some time to relax in your
unique hotel “room”, inspired by Welsh legends and surrounded by epic scenery! This evening you have the chance to meet the other likeminded guests, all here to be inspired and immersed in the Epic Retreats experience. A local band will provide a private, exclusive gig of live
Welsh music in front of a roaring camp fire, while you all get to know each other and enjoy a freshly prepared meal of the best local produce
by your chef. (D)
Tuesday
What’s included in this
amazing package!
Today you will be met by your luxury transportation and knowledgeable Blue Badge guide
who will take you to explore this bountiful area. Begin your day on a quest for gold at the
nearby Dolaucothi Gold Mines and put yourself in the place of the Roman gold miners who
travelled to Wales two thousand years ago, to hunt down this precious metal. You will also
learn about the legends of the Pumsaint Stone, which stands near the entrance to the mines,
and is associated with five Celtic saints. This afternoon you will be searching out something
a lot more edible as you satisfy your appetite with tours and tastings of some of the awardwinning local food and drink producers in the area! Continuing the delicious theme, dinner
this evening will be served at a local microbrewery! (B, L, D)

Outstanding Natural Beauty and one of the few places in the UK to be named a UNESCO
International Dark Sky reserve. It is the perfect place to take a walk and discover some of the
wonderful waterfalls it is known for. Pursue the elusive Lady of the Lake at Llyn y Fan Fach, and
