  • Five minutes’ drive to Offa’s Dyke Path; Forest of Dean 20 minutes
  • Dog-friendly pods each with wet room and well-equipped kitchen
Hankering after a glamping adventure in gorgeous rural Wales? And one that accepts dogs to boot? You’ll like the sound of the wooden pods at Buckholt House Farm Glamping near Monmouth, on a working Welsh sheep farm with lovely views of fields and forest thrown in. Each glamping pod sleeps up to five people (in a double bed and triple-sleeper bunk), and has an ultra-spacious, open-plan design where you can eat, catch up on work (if you must), cook in the fabulously well-equipped kitchen and chill out at your own pace. Inside each pod is a wet room with a flushing toilet and power shower. There’s lots of storage inside for your bits and pieces, and extras like a mirror, a hair dryer and bed linen are provided. You will, however, need to bring your own towels – and perhaps some binoculars for wildlife spotting and a bag of charcoal for barbecuing in the firepit in the private garden. Dogs are welcome, but must be under control around the resident dogs and livestock. There are local woods with public footpaths for walks, and an off-lead exercise area for hire on a farm nearby. Please note that there is a relatively steep gravel path up to the pods. If you’re arriving by car, there is parking on site. Otherwise there are buses and a taxi service from Monmouth (five minutes’ drive), where you can also pick up all your shopping.

Walnut camping pod (no pets)

Liked We really don’t know where to start, the location is absolutely stunning so peaceful and views down through the valley. The pod was spotless and included everything you need beds are very comfortable. Shower is excellent. We really have had the most relaxed couple of days with plenty to do in the surrounding area. Kathryn and Phil are so friendly and even invited us to the lambing shed to see the new born lambs which our 9 year old absolutely loved.
All we can say is thank you so much Kathryn and Phil for making our stay so memorable we have rebooked for May

Many thanks

Willow camping pod

Liked It was a beautiful pod, that was done to the most gorgeous spec. The landscape was so quiet and gorgeous to be amongst. The kids loved it and felt free, but safe.

The host was amazingly accommodating and let us know where all the children local activities were, left milk and some supplies for us and wood to burn on the stove, free of charge.

Truly felt such a luxury glamping experience and 10/10 all round.

Disliked That we had to come home :-)

Liked The pod was comfortable and well laid out. The hostess welcoming with thoughtful details. The location was secluded, idyllic, and bucolic, set in a valley it was peaceful and surrounded by nature. It was also well located for local tourism activities. A perfect stay and we would definitely return.

Walnut camping pod (no pets)

Liked Beautiful pod and scenic views. We stayed for 2 nights with our 14,12 and 1 year old and it was the most peaceful and relaxing stay we have had somewhere. The Pod itself was immaculate and had everything we needed and more!! The owner had thought of literally everything. We were even left some fire wood and marshmallows to toast on the fire pit.

There was tea, coffee, sugar, sweetener and even a pint of milk in the fridge so even if you didn’t bring anything with you, you could have a nice cuppa upon arrival.

The grounds were beautiful, there was a little field by the pods with a football and a goal post where we played a bit of football with the kids, we went for walks around the top fields overlooking the Pods to do a little exploring and we even stargazed at night with the binoculars that were in the pod. Apart from making a trip into the local town for essentials, we didn’t leave the pod as we wanted to enjoy every minute of our little getaway.

Also, the weather was beautiful for the 2 day’s we were there so that made our stay even better. The beds were very comfy, the pod was spacious, clean, tidy and lovely and warm at night. We were sad to leave but we are already planning another stay very soon and have recommended the pod’s to family and friends already!!

Disliked Nothing!! There was nothing to dislike, everything was perfect!!

Willow camping pod

Liked Stunning location, remote and quiet. The Pod was spacious, well equipped, clean and comfortable. We took our dog and he settled well. There were toys and a safe place for the children to play. Loved the welcome treats and marshmallows!
Can’t wait to go back for another stay!

Local attractions

A stay at Buckholt House Farm Glamping gives you the chance to explore two countries in one day – the border between Wales and England passes through the field right next to the pods. See how that border was once fiercely fought over at defence castles like Goodrich Castle on the English side or head to Raglan Castle (both 15 minutes’ drive), firmly back in Wales. Follow that same border along Offa’s Dyke Path (five minutes) or hit the walks and cycling routes taking in the circular sculpture trail in the Forest of Dean (20 minutes). Ramp up your sporty adventures with kayaking along the River Wye (five minutes), try a tandem paragliding flight from Blorenge (half an hour), go whitewater rafting at Symonds Yat (15 minutes) or hang around on treetop ropes courses at Go Ape Mallards Pike (half an hour). When you’ve had enough of leaping around in the fresh air, take yourselves off to Monmouth (five minutes’ drive). Sitting at the confluence of the Wye and Monnow rivers, historic sites include a couple of landmark bridges straddling the waters, the castle and neighbouring Regimental Museum. The town is also a pretty spot for browsing indie shops and hanging out in waterfront pubs.
