Site facilities
In addition to our cosy cabins and campervan spaces, we also have many on site facilities, some private some shared, for guests to use. We hope these will make your stay easy.
And, as an award-winning, Visit Wales accredited Glamping Site, you can rest assured that we meet the highest standards. We also carry the Visit Wales Cyclists and Walkers Welcome awards.
Well-equipped kitchens
Our inside-outside kitchens have all the mod-cons so you can cook, eat and relax. And, if you don't feel like cooking, the village has plenty of takeaways. The walls open up but they'll keep you nice and dry if it rains. Kitchens 1 and 2, assigned to Del Fryn and Gwynfa, are next to each other and the dividing wall rolls up to make a big kitchen ideal for groups. Kitchen 3, assigned to Noddfa, sits just below. Each kitchen has:
- sink, washing up liquid, hand wash and tea towels
- fridge with ice box, two-ring induction hob, microwave, toaster and kettle
- pots and pans etc, cafetiere, crockery, cups, glasses and cutlery
- cleaning equipment and refuse/recycling bins
- BBQ and BBQ tools
- inside and outdoor seating.
The shower rooms
Guests staying in Bodlawen, Del Fryn, Gwynfa and Noddfa are allocated one of four shower rooms located in the kitchen and shower block. The shower rooms are private and have everything you'll need to refresh after a busy day. Inside you'll find:
- lovely hot showers with body wash
- a wash basin with handwash and hand towels
- loo with loo roll (they flush with recycled rainwater)
- shaving point, mirror, heater, hooks and bench
- cleaning spray and cloth
- key code access.
Shared site facilities
We want your stay to be as relaxing as possible so our shared facilities are designed to make your stay easy. The gated site has:
- guest store and honesty shop - here you'll find spare bin bags, dog poop bags, sanitary towels/tampons, games etc plus some basics/treats to buy including firewood, charcoal etc.
- car parking (one space per cabin; if you need more get in touch)
- twin electric vehicle/EV charger
- a bike wash with brush and bike cleaner, also good for muddy boots/paws
- Turvec bike maintenance stand with tools
- a covered outdoor sink
- drying room and washing lines with pegs
- outdoor seating
- a pizza oven, BBQs and fire bowl
- free WiFi throughout most of the site (it can be a bit weather dependent).
Explore The Roost
Once through the gate, you'll enter our spacious car park with a twin EV charger. Off the car park you'll find all the essentials including a bike wash and repair stand with tools, the recycling area, drying room, guest store and honesty shop and a covered, outdoor sink.
Nestled among the trees are our five cabins and the kitchen and shower block. Kitchen 3 sits separately, down a few steps. All kitchens and shower rooms are private unless you've booked the entire site. For group stays, kitchens 1 and 2 open up into a spacious shared kitchen, while kitchen 3 makes a great bar or service area.
Outside, there are plenty of outdoor seats and picnic tables around the kitchens. Whether you're firing up the BBQ, making pizzas in the pizza oven, or unwinding around the fire pit, the Roost is designed for post-activity relaxation.
"I stayed at The Roost for a small MTB trip with a friend, was a fabulous place to stay. Easy in and out, lovely venue, great facilities, and had a real good feel of both an accommodation and glamping. Amenities were all clean and well supplied, and there was a little honesty shop to stock up on any tidbits not packed. Tips for other travellers: Near a small pub and shop, like a 5-10min drive to Bike Park Wales and super close to the nearby national park (highly suggest spending some time just on the road, beautiful scenery)."
