Oak Tree Farm is located near Llanfynydd in Carmarthenshire. It's just a short drive from Carmarthen town centre, the National Botanic Garden of Wales, and on the outskirts of the Brecon Beacons National Park.

It’s well placed near between West Wales and South Wales allowing you to explore both regions on day trips from the campsite. It is also a great option for families looking for a quiet place to camp together, or larger groups thanks to the two tents onsite, though you will need to book ahead of time.

Outside of each dome you will find picnic tables, a fire pit and hammocks, along with a wood-fired pizza oven for perfect meals.
Of course, there's the obligatory hot tub, although it's not your typical design, it's a wood-fired Hikki Bohemen hot tub that's more like an outdoor bath with a built-in stove. Not all domes come with a hot tub so double-check before booking. There are also hot shower and toilet facilities on site.
The two larger domes can sleep up to eight people, and your pet is even welcome, as long as they are well-behaved. The design of each dome even allows you to see the night sky from your bed, offering a wonderful way of falling to sleep whilst admiring the wonders of nature.
