ABOUT
Ty Llwyd Fach is a place focused on nurturing biodiversity, located near Cross Hands in South Wales. It is well located at the end of the M4.
Take in the wildflower meadow, with mown paths; get lost in the willow circle field; cwtch up in the dome and splash in the stream. Lie in a hammock in the ancient woodland and look for lizards and a rare marsh fritillary butterfly.
We have been welcoming folk to share the delights the land has to offer for a few years now. We attract an eclectic bunch whose interests vary from wilderness to queer spirit, but they all have one thing in common: they love the sense of freedom Ty Llwyd Fach allows its visitors.
Willow Circle Field
A large circle of weeping willows around a large fire pit.
Small paths, nooks and crannies around the field, managed for wildlife and excellent for hide and seek!
Wildflower Meadow
A dynamic, beautiful, open flower-rich meadow. Buzzing and chirruping insects. Orchids and yellow rattle, birdsfoot trefoil and meadowsweet. Paths mown for a lovely stroll. It’s mowed or grazed each year – a changeable landscape.
The pond
A magnet for wildlife and a peaceful place. Teeming with frogs, newts, dragonflies and a nesting pair of lawn flamingos.
The Orchard
A beautiful pear orchard with mown camping pitches and circles of wild flowers. A living willow dome – great for shade and for cozy campfires- and easy access to the rest of the farm, this is the best place for tents!
The Butterfly Meadow
Rare, unimproved wildflower meadow with devils-bit scabious and betony. Over the stream, it’s a distant, wild experience.
Home to many lizards and the rare marsh fritillary butterflies.
The woods
Ancient woodland, damp moss and ferns with a stream running through. Wild garlic and bluebells, oak, holly, buzzards, woodpeckers and dormice!
