Greener Glamping

Posted on October 4, 2020July 30, 2025 by Nathan Green

So we are really pleased to announce that not only have we been certificated by the Greener Camping Club, we’ve also now sent our new Greener Glamping website live at greenerglamping.uk.

Our new site is specifically for renting the yurts only and not the whole of Ty Mam Mawr retreat centre.

    • I didn't want to come home! As we drove up the steep incline to the yurt... My partner, daughter and I could not contain out excitement and we were not disappointed.... The view surrounding the yurt that came into view was spectacular.

      We arrived to such a warm welcome from the host Nathan... He made us feel at home instantly. Inside the yurt, we discovered a very comfy double bed and sofa bed.... Already prepared with beautifully clean linen in keeping with the feel of the yurt. The facilities were rustic (compost toilet listening to chickens having a conversation) as I would expect in a glamping yurt.... But the hot electric shower and very useable camping stove made it rather posh really!

      Our first evening was spent cooking a meal using stove and fire pit (we managed pulled pork with veg followed but baked banana with chocolate!). Then Nathan invited us for cider at his big fire pit. We spent a pleasant evening setting the world to rights.

      My family then spent one of the best weeks of our lives!!!!!! I write that from the heart.

      My little girl of 6years learnt to lay and start a fire, cooking toast on it every morning. We explored the local paths with both bikes and on foot. All views were beautiful. One evening, Nathan helpfully explained the best place to see the sunset and as a family we chased the sun! We also went out for many day trips! I can recommend Llangollen as a great day out (steam train, vintage shopping, castle, abbey and canal boats) and the local town of Corwan boasts the best curry house in Wales (we might have tried it one night... You don't want to cook every night!)....to name but one of many many things to do locally! Nathan is very knowledgable of the area and is able to give you tips on the best spots/beaches.

      I asked my daughter what her best bits were... She said Nathan's animals (very friendly cats, dogs and chickens) and digging for treasure(bottles and china) out of one of Nathan's banks... Thanks for that Nathan... You made a little archeologist very happy!

      The beautiful setting, homely yurt, friendly host and diversity of things to do locally...resulted in my little family having a holiday full of adventure... I can not recommend this wonderful yurt enough!

    • Such a beautiful yurt and surroundings. The space was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Had no issues with anything provided. We met Nathan, he was super friendly and made sure everything was fine with the stay and that we had everything we needed. The hammocks were the best part!! It was so peaceful, I didn’t want to leave!
