A former golf course near Newtown has been transformed into a £7.5 million luxury glamping resort.

Love2Stay Mid Wales is the new health and wellbeing resort which has recently opened its doors to people looking for a bit of luxury in the picturesque upper Severn Valley in Caersws.

The 28-acre site, which was previously home to Mid Wales Golf Centre, will have 125 glamping lodges when it is fully developed.

“Following eight months of hard work, we are delighted to be launching Love2Stay Mid Wales and look forward to welcoming our first guests to our luxury resort,” said Trevor Bebb, who owns the resort with his wife Patricia.

“The resort has been carefully designed to give the glamping lodges a great view over the Severn Valley and surrounding countryside. We are keen to work with other local businesses to ensure that we all benefit from this development and I would like to thank everybody who has supported us.

“Our guests will be encouraged to explore the local villages of Caersws and Llandinam, the nearby towns of Newtown and Llanidloes and the many attractions that mid Wales has to offer.”

The £7.5 million resort, which is being developed in three phases, has an indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam and treatment rooms, well-equipped fitness suite, reception area, coffee shop and outdoor beach area as its centrepiece.

The first phase of development includes 31 luxury glamping lodges, ranging from £469 to £909 a week, each with their own hot tub, two play areas for children of different ages, a nature play area and a recreational lake for water sports.

Up to 30 jobs are being created by Love2Stay Mid Wales, which has appointed Lukasz and Eloise Gutowski as resort managers and Laura Wilde as marketing officer.

The resort is now looking to recruit new team members for front of house and coffee shop positions which for information can be contacted at midwales@love2stay.co.uk.

Free Wi-fi is available across the resort but Love2Stay Mid Wales wants to encourage guests to put away their digital devices and spend quality time together enjoying the facilities, the spectacular scenery and the great outdoors.

All the accommodation, which includes a dozen Black Barns, six Woodland Lodges, nine Hillside Cabins and four Wren’s Nest double lodges, is available to be booked online by visiting the Love2Stay Mid Wales profile on Hoseasons.
