Safari Tents

Our giraffe-themed Twiga Tents bring all the safari feels to your family glamping holiday in Pembrokeshire. Check in at 4pm, check out 10am.

For the ultimate safari experience right here in Wales, sleep next door to our world-class zoo.

Our safari tents offer something that little bit different for your glamping holiday accommodation. Voted Pembrokeshire’s Glamping Provider of the year, children will love staying in our giraffe-themed safari tents and they’ll enjoy visiting our herd of giraffe with unlimited entry to our farm park and zoo included in your glamping stay. Parents will love cosy camping in our large, furnished tents with kitchen and dining area, living room and family shower room. No smoothing out your groundsheet or pitching your tent and no trekking to the toilet in the middle of the night. Just rock up, sit back and relax!

Safari style

Always wanted to go on safari? But don’t fancy the long distance travel? Then we’ve got you covered. Our Twiga Tents bring a touch of safari style with the home comforts of luxury camping. With giraffe-themed interior decor and rustic safari styling throughout, you could be forgiven for thinking you’re on the plains of Africa and not in the heart of rural Pembrokeshire! You may even spot our Eastern black rhino from your tent and you’ll be able to visit some African animals, as well as some from every continent, at our world-class zoo – rated a top ten zoo in the world on TripAdvisor.

Wrap up! It’s camping after all.

Our Twiga Tents are canvas structures to give you all the safari feels and we’ve gone that extra mile with insulated walls and ceilings but you’ll still want to bring warm clothing for the evenings just as you would with standard camping. You’ll be at one with nature with this glamping experience but we do provide some luxuries over standard camping such as all your bedding and towelling needs, en-suite bathroom and basic cooking facilities. We’ve also provided plenty of blankets for those chilly evenings!

Quality Assured

Our Twiga Tents aren’t just Visit Wales quality assured…they’ve also been awarded the Gold Award for Glamping!

Why Twiga?

Fun fact time…Twiga is Swahili for Giraffe. So, we’ve given our safari tents a giraffe-themed makeover to bring the magic of Africa to your next stay.

They’re canvas structures over a wooden frame but we have gone that extra mile and insulated our safari tents and provided an electric stove heater. Please bring warm clothing for the evenings as you would for standard camping and enjoy this luxury camping experience where you don’t have to worry about trekking to the toilet during the night or bringing your own bedding or towels. We do supply throws and blankets in the living room area for extra comfort for the chilly evenings.

Q: Can you lock the tents?

A: Just like with standard camping our safari tents have zip closings but we do provide a zip padlock. We provide a personal safe inside the tent for small valuables. Holiday park staff are on site during the day and we have night security too.

Twiga Tent reviews

"Love the Twiga Tents! You won't regret this amazing unique glamping experience."

Lara Bennett, , 18 August 2023

"We’ve just had the most amazing week staying here on the park, cozy and clean the tents don’t even fell like tents. With heaters in every room and plenty of space and kitchen area the whole stay was perfect from start to finish. Staff were amazing and always super helpful. We’re already coming back."

Shauna Edwards, Caerphilly, 21 July 2023

"We absolutely loved our stay, the tents are cosy, spotlessly clean and you don’t even feel like your in a tent when inside, we will definitely be coming back! Unlimited access to Folly Farm throughout your stay, half price wristbands for the rides! Staff were amazing, heaters in every room, was warm."

Shelby Smith, Bridgend, 23 April 2023

"The tent was immaculate, and absolutely stunning. I was very impressed with space considering we’re a family of four 2 little ones under 3 so only suggestion would be to have a gate at the top of the stairs. Love all the little touches too. We will definitely be back and be recommending to family!"
