Our Experience At Top Of The Woods
Our adventure began when Top of The Woods, a gem for dog friendly glamping in Wales, extended an invitation to explore their scenic site. The prospect of sharing this holiday with Charlie, indulging in new sights and scents, sent our excitement through the roof. Glamping in Pembrokeshire offered us a luxurious twist to camping, promising the beauty of the outdoors without the hassle of packing camping gear. All we needed was an overnight bag, Charlie’s bed, and an eagerness for adventure.
Warm Welcome
The moment our feet touched the grounds of Top of the Woods, relaxation seeped into our bones. Surrounded by nature’s tranquility, with the sun’s embrace and birds’ melodies, we felt at home. And Charlie? He was already taking in the fresh, country scents, tail wagging like a little rotor.
Stepping into the courtyard, surrounded by Georgian farm beauty, was a revelation. It wasn’t just a field; it was a quaint village waiting to embrace us. Soo, the co-founder, and Dylan, her canine companion, greeted us with the warmest of welcomes.
In Awe of the Tour
Our tour revealed the breadth of accommodation and facilities available. From Safari Lodges and Bell Tents to a communal fire-pit and the essential comforts of modern amenities, every corner held a new delight. The Dutch barn, with its vibrant straw bales and festive bunting, became an instant favourite, offering a cozy retreat for communal dining or a quiet afternoon in the hammock garden.
Feeling right at home
Our Pioneer Tent was a chic, boutique haven, complete with an outdoor kitchen and a campfire spot. Charlie found his spot, settling in with ease. Inside, the tent offered cosy mattresses and a living space, but remember, pooches on beds are a no-go! Luckily, Charlie’s bed was just as comfy.
Basking in the sun, soaking in the silence, Charlie had other plans. His joy was unbridled in the open fields, darting through the grass with the energy only a happy dog knows.
Surrounding Adventures
Our adventures took us from the secret waterfall walks suggested by Top of The Woods to the stunning Poppet Sands beach. Witnessing Charlie’s joy as he played with other dogs against the backdrop of a setting sun was a highlight we’ll cherish forever.
Returning to our glamping haven, we indulged in simple pleasures: cooking over the campfire, sharing stories, and soaking in the beauty of our surroundings under a canopy of stars. The fairy-lit ambiance of the campsite added a magical touch to our nocturnal wanderings, perfectly capturing the essence of our stay.
