It lies directly on the Offa’s Dyke Path, making it perfect for walkers and nature lovers.

Built by its owner using reclaimed materials, the Gypsy caravan harmonises beautifully with the surrounding woodland, inviting you to embrace nature and enjoy the simplicity of life.

Inside, you'll find a comfortable king-size bed dressed with Welsh sheep's wool pillows and soft cotton bedding and towels. The kitchenette is equipped with tea and coffee facilities, a electric hob, a fridge, and all the necessary utensils. Breakfast is provided to start your mornings slowly.

There is a private outdoor hot shower room with complementary toiletries and a separate private toilet. Relax in a secluded bathhouse featuring a double-ended hot jet bathtub beneath a glass roof that offers a view of the tree canopy.
