Description
Description
Nestled along the stunning Glamorgan Heritage Coast, Y Felin Fach is a charming and spacious five-bedroom residence that forms the heart of the renowned Heritage Coast Campsite. This beautifully maintained home offers a blend of comfort, character, and potential, featuring an en suite master bedroom, a large family bathroom, a welcoming hall/dining room, a well-equipped kitchen with an adjoining store room (ideal for conversion into a second living space), a utility room, and a delightful summer house. The property is set within a secluded half-acre garden, offering privacy and tranquillity in a truly idyllic setting.
Planning permission has been granted for a double garage, additional campsite toilets, and the exciting opportunity to convert the popular on-site Teddy’s Bar into two further luxury lodges—adding even more value and potential to this unique offering.
The wider Heritage Coast Campsite has earned widespread acclaim and media attention over the years. It was a key participant in the 2012 ‘Perfect Pitch’ initiative, a Creative Rural Communities project promoting sustainable tourism, which attracted coverage from BBC Newyddion, ITV Wales Tonight, South Wales Echo, Western Mail, and WalesOnline. The site has also been featured by Visit Wales (4-star rating), Pitchup.com, and regularly appears in national publications such as The Sunday Times and The Independent as one of the UK’s top campsites.
Adding to its appeal are two newly built luxury lodges—Heritage Retreat and Monks Rest—completed in 2024 and awarded a prestigious 5-star grading by Visit Wales. These lodges boast over 30 five-star guest reviews and offer a premium glamping experience.
The site is also home to Teddy’s Bar and Café, a warm and inviting space for guests to relax. Facilities include five showers, five toilets (including a disabled-access unit), and a utility room. The campsite enjoys a loyal customer base, bolstered by strong rankings on platforms like Cool Camping and Pitchup, and is even a favourite among German travellers thanks to its inclusion in a popular European camping guide.
Whether you're looking for a lifestyle change, a thriving business opportunity, or a beautiful home with income potential, Y Felin Fach and Heritage Coast Campsite offers a rare and rewarding combination of both.
