Equipped with a hot shower and toilet, an outdoor covered kitchen with gas cooker and electric cool box for meals and somewhere to make a well earned cup of tea after a hike. There is also a BBQ and fire pit with a well stocked wood pile. The tent is in the grounds of a working farm so your area is fenced off not to keep you in but to keep the stock out. please keep dogs on a lead at all times.

Beautiful valley walks also compliment the mountain hikes if you would rather stay on the valley floor and explore the wonderful Grwyne Valley.
