The six best cabins in Wales for stargazing

Perched in the Welsh valleys, The Sleepout is a cosy cabin that offers visitors a unique opportunity to connect with nature. The cabin is located down a rough track and can only be accessed by foot, which adds to its sense of isolation and tranquillity. Inside, a wooden ladder leads up to a sleeping den where guests can enjoy views of the night sky through the windows. With no neighbours close by, The Sleepout is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect with the natural world. Whether you're lying in bed gazing at the stars or hiking through the nearby wilderness, The Sleepout is sure to leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Looking to get away from it all and reconnect with nature? Then look no further than this magical estate, surrounded by bird-filled hedgerows, woodpeckers in the forest and organic farmland dotted with sheep and cattle. It’s the perfect place to forget the everyday grind and get back to basics, cooking outdoors on a fire if you choose, showering in the handmade willow enclosure, singing and dancing under the stars. The light pollution here is minimal so on clear nights the stars put on a stunning show.

Caban Cilfa is the perfect place to get away from it all and enjoy some peace and quiet. Perched in the hillsides of Wales, this cosy cabin offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Whether you want to relax and watch the birds fish on the pond, or explore the miles of hiking and biking trails, Caban Cilfa is sure to please. At night, you can light the wood burner and enjoy the stars in the unspoilt sky.

The Hide was designed with the concept of 'immersion in nature' in mind, so you'll find yourself amongst trees, overlooking the wildlife pond which has visiting otters and a rowing boat. The grassy exteriors aren't the only thing Nordic here - the dens are simple and cosy inside too and the flexible layout make them a perfect fit for families and couples. As night falls, you can sit around the campfire on log stools enjoying the stars, the moon and the sounds of country life.

As soon as you arrive at The Logpile House, you feel your stresses melting away. The tranquil setting by the river is the perfect place to relax and unwind. And, although it's nice to disconnect from the outside world, it's good to know that there is Wi-Fi and all the mod cons should you need them. You won't be bored either, with plenty of books and games to keep you entertained. But the real showstopper is the night sky. With very little light pollution, you can sit back and enjoy an incredible view of the stars. It's the perfect antidote to a busy life and a place where you can truly appreciate the beauty of nature.

If you're looking for a place to truly unwind and escape the hustle and bustle of daily life, then look no further than the Stoep. This charming cabin is tucked away in a forgotten corner of the world, surrounded by nothing but fields, hills and fresh air. The open plan layout and floor-to-ceiling windows create a sense of calm and peace, while the firepit outside is the perfect spot to relax under the stars. If you're lucky enough to visit during the summer months, you'll be treated to some of the most spectacular sunsets you've ever seen.
