Greener glamping

Ty Mam Mawr

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.

Nice place. Clean yurt. Good host

We had a fantastic and peaceful time in this spacious, magical, beautifully lit traditional yurt, away from it all in the midst of the North Welsh hills. Very friendly, accommodating hosts

What a wonderful place! When we arrived in Cynwyd we were struggling with baggage and so Nathan very kindly offered to pick us up and take us to the yurts. It was a nice drive up to the yurts and we were greeted with the freshest air I’ve ever tasted.. Nathan showed us around the place and explained everything perfectly, we had nothing to really ask him (other than when we realised we don’t really know how fires work). We stayed in the smaller yurt and it was perfect for the two of us, it heated up really quickly and retained heat well (in late December). The yurt itself was so cosy I still can’t get my head around how at home I felt. We didn’t have a car and luckily that wasn’t even necessary once we had got up to the yurts, there are walks for miles in almost every direction (tall pine forests, beautiful red valleys, the fresh f*cking air!±!!). Despite not seeing Nathan much once we arrived, he was still very responsive and helpful when we messaged him.

So onto the actual site itself that the two yurts (including Nathan & Shaynes house) were on. I could honestly go on forever in describing just how magical it really feels. We felt like we had more than enough privacy whilst still not feeling isolated, and that is due to how well they have designed everything. From the placement of the pond to the view from the yurt (and kitchen) window. You can hear a mixture of running water, singing birds, blowing trees, and pure beauty. Nathan & Shayne have clearly considered being as integrated into the natural landscape as possible whilst still being able to provide comfort and convenience for everyone there. It seems they have also considered the most subtle details in producing a tranquil and truly spiritual space to feel free in.

All in all it was amaaaazing, and I could still go on explaining why, but I want to eat my dinner. Thankyou SO much to Nathan, Shayne & Mother Nature for providing this whole experience!!! :)) ❤️ Xxx

What a wonderful stay we had in Nathan and Shayne’s yurt. It’s a beautiful location and a chance to get away from it all and be at one with nature. We met Nathan and he’s a great host. Thanks for a lovely stay - we will definitely be back! 😊
