Aran is a uniquely designed shepherd's hut with a super cosy double bedroom, separate living room and spacious kitchen dining area. Outside you have your own fire pit, barbecue and composting loo, with stunning views over the Welsh countryside.
Our vintage gypsy caravan is the perfect romantic retreat and is open all year round. Designed specifically for one or two adults, our caravan is an original gypsy bow top, with a double bed, log burning stove and lots of quirky storage space. There is also an adjacent log cabin with a kitchen and dining area, including a cosy sofa, running water and a gas hob. Outside you have a secluded garden with fire pit and rustic outdoor furniture, plus a private composting toilet and hot shower. Due to the unique design and layout, Bluebell Corner is not suitable for babies and children, but well-behaved dogs are very welcome!
Yes, there is a log burner in each of the tents and the gypsy caravan and we supply a basket of logs, kindling and firelighters to get you started. We also restock your logs as required.
Yes, our composting toilets all come with an ample supply of recycled toilet paper which can be composted too!
Yes, we supply solar powered battery packs which you can use to charge your phone. You just need to bring your regular USB cable.
We are a fully off-grid site which means there are no electric sockets for hair dryers or other appliances. Sorry!
Yes, we are lucky enough to be just five minutes away from the Rhug Estate Shop which has eight ultra-rapid 120kW InstaVolt chargers.
We are blessed with some of the most beautiful beaches in the world here in North Wales. In under an hour you can be in Conwy, Colwyn Bay or Llandudno, all traditional seaside resorts. Or just a little further is the stunning coastline of Harlech, the Llyn Peninsula and Ynys Mon | Anglesey. We are just 20 minutes from the National Park with great access to Llyn Tegid | Bala Lake and the Eryri| Snowdonia mountain range.
No, I'm afraid we are not set up for camping, although if you are booking the whole site we can accommodate campervans and your own tents upon request. We don't have any hook ups.
Yes of course, we love having dogs to stay at The Forge! We just ask that you keep them under close control and clean up after them so everyone gets to enjoy our space.
We have undercover kitchen areas for all the tents, plus a large communal cabin with a log burner, sofas and bean bags where you are welcome to hang out if the weather isn't great.
No, as we are off-grid site and focused on trying to be as sustainable as possible we don't have hot tubs on site. We can recommend several local spas which provide them, or we can also highly recommend the River Dee if you are looking for some exhilaration and relaxation!
Our gypsy caravan and cabin accommodation have been thoughtfully designed to ensure you have a true back-to-nature experience but with all the modern comforts to make your stay with us extra special.
Our caravan is carpeted and has plenty of blankets and cushions to make it super cosy. There is a well-appointed camp kitchen in the cabin and its own composting toilet.
Outside, you have your own fire pit where you can sizzle your own bacon and toast marshmallows. We provide a basket of logs to get you started and Jamie is also on hand if you'd like to learn a bit more about campfire cooking. Or you can take a wander up the hill to the fire circle on our own Iron Age hill fort, which is the perfect place to enjoy a sun-downer or gaze up at the stars.
What a place. Had an amazing stay. The tents are very luxurious with everything you could possibly need for the stay. Very nice touches and details by the owners - they have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. Very warm welcome from Sheena the owner who is very nice and easy going. Very very impressed by this place, the pics don’t do it justice - great facilities, great owners and every possible comfort included (and more) for an off grid getaway - plus we got the weather :) Will definitely be staying again. Cannot recommend it enough.
Just back from an incredible few days glamping at the Forge. From start to finish Jamie was the perfect host, nothing was too much trouble and he was always on hand for any queries. The accommodation literally has everything you could possibly need and they have really thought of everything when designing the layout. The log burner inside the tent was a great addition and kept us warm all night. This was the kids first experience of camping and they literally didn't want to leave. We had a brilliant time and will definitely be back!
I would like to thank you, Jamie and the team very much for our stay at the Forge over the last couple of days. Everything was just great, with all our needs catered for, very comfortable and well equipped. We really enjoyed ourselves. It was a lovely chance to 'recharge the batteries' and have the chance to spend time together chatting without all the usual day to day activities and chores. We were very lucky with the weather and were able to cook outside and sit out. We hope to visit again next year!
