In 2017, fforest was judged by National Geographic as one of the top 3 glamping resorts in the world! Yes the world! This was fantastic recognition for fforest, being the only venue in Wales to get a mention in any of the 20 categories celebrating the best taste-making and game-changing hotels across the globe. Judges included Tom Chesshyre, travel writer for The Times, Nikki Tinto, co-founder of i-escape, and James & Tamara Lohan, founders of Mr & Mrs Smith along with members of the National Geographic Traveller (UK) team.
But, not to be complacent, fforest has been constantly evolving since the award and now has mostly cosy heated and insulated accommodation with private showers or bathhouses, suitable for luxurious year-round occupation. fforest Farm weddings are residential, with a minimum 2 night stay. In the farmyard, you’ll find the spacious Georgian farmhouse, split level crog lofts and cosy garden shacs with the living space spilling out onto the terrace; in the surrounding fields, beautifully furnished, romantic geodesic domes either with an adjoining Japanese-style outdoor onsen bathhouse, or a cosy indoor private bathhouse with underfloor heating a short woodland walk away, and the new hill shac suites all with flexible double/twin rooms and a deep outdoor terrace to take in the air and the birdsong. All guest accommodation includes a relaxed supper or wood-fired pizza party on arrival day, breakfast on the morning of your wedding celebrations and a big Welsh barbecue brunch the morning after.
