Luxury Glamping
An alternative to Hay-on-Wye cottages
Our four luxe-pods offer stylish, modern living, with iconic curved walls to the rear and wall-to-ceiling sliding glass doors to the front, with uninterrupted views to the countryside
Surrounded by Corsican pine trees, meadow flowers, and orchard, our pods sit within a seven acre haven in the Wye Valley, with the peaks of the Brecon Beacons just beyond the horizon.
Although designed for couples, we can provide a travel cot for an infant or a single duvet on the sofa for a child.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome at Cynefin Retreats (one dog per pod)

Dogs Friendly
With footpaths leading right from the doorstep, Cynefin Retreats makes for the perfect dog-friendly getaway. As dog owners ourselves, we understand that dogs are part of the family, and your four-legged friend is welcome. The price for bringing your dog is £30.
We ask that any guests bringing a dog follow standard etiquette, ensuring their dogs are well-behaved, and are supervised when they’re outside in our meadows, with all dog mess disposed of.
