About Red Kite Tree Tents
Suspended among pine trees in the Brecon Beacons, Red Kite Tree Tents offers something genuinely different: spherical canvas tents perched above the forest floor near Builth Wells. The setup has caught enough attention to feature on television, and it's easy to see why – sleeping aloft in a gentle sway brings a touch of adventure without abandoning comfort. The site provides the essentials (showers, toilets, drinking water) but keeps things simple: there's no WiFi and pets aren't permitted, which suits the tranquil, back-to-nature vibe.
It's an excellent base for exploring mid-Wales, with Llandrindod Wells and the wider Powys countryside within easy reach. If you fancy something beyond standard canvas and want a memorable stay in the pines, this quirky spot delivers.

What visitors say
Wow… what can I say! I booked the Earth Conker as a surprise for my boyfriend’s birthday and I couldn’t think of a more relaxing, beautiful place to celebrate. The Conker is in such a gorgeous location with THE MOST INCREDIBLE views. Even though the estate has other accommodation dotted around, everything is so spaced out so you feel like you are the only people for miles (which was perfect for our reactive dogs). The Conker has everything you need for a break and they’ve thought of everything to make your stay as perfect as possible. You even get your own flour and yeast to have a go at making your own pizza bases, and some marshmallows to toast on the fire in the evening. The Conker is so comfy, and so relaxing! I usually struggle to sleep but the bed was so comfortable and it was so cosy and warm inside. The ceiling windows are great for a bit of star gazing too. There are some gorgeous walks around - definitely explore the Cambrian mountains as the views are incredible and we didn’t see a single soul the whole time we were walking. We did get to see a lot of wildlife though, and went to feed the pigs in Hogwarts. We even saw some baby birds hatching in their nest in the shower shed. Everything was so simple - the directions, the check-in, the communication. I honestly can’t think of one complaint - it was perfection. Thank you so much for such a beautiful stay - we really hope we can come back and stay with you again ❤️

What a memorable last minute getaway. Myself and my partner could not have picked anywhere that's more us than the tree tents. Such a lovely site to stay on with so much wildlife (and the occasional sheep) in and around our private camp. Being so remote in your own little world with no signal was bliss. The bed was so much more comfortable than I ever thought too. The only thing we would have changed was to have a few more nights! Thankyou so much for making our stay so perfect!

This was my third time staying at Chillderness, and it just keeps getting better. After previously staying in both of the incredible tree tents, I decided to try the Moon Conker this time, and it did not disappoint! As always, the surroundings are absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and the perfect escape. The host was amazing once again—so welcoming and attentive, making sure everything was perfect for our stay. If you are thinking about booking, do it! I highly recommend Chillderness and we will definitely be back for a fourth visit. 🐷 Top tip: Don't forget to visit the pigs at Hogwarts during your stay

Me and my partner stayed here for our anniversary and had an amazing time. The location is perfect, settled up high in woodland with an incredible view. The pizza oven and fire pit were a great addition. David and Anjana were excellent, even going out their way to help me get my car unstuck (we took the wrong turn!). Highly recommend for a quiet trip away. Only negative was the bath tub took a very long time to heat up, but this could have well been down to my not so great fire making skills! 5/5
