A new glamping venue has been earmarked in Snowdonia - on a site currently used to store dead animals.
The area next to Capel Salem, at Pentre Gwynfryn near Llanbedr, had been used for kennels and to store "fallen stock" from nearby farms for decades. Last year the owner won permission to build a new building to the carcasses despite opposition locally. Now plans are in from Gaerwen-based Cymru Lȃn Cyf for outline planning permission to change the use to D2 (leisure), demolish some existing buildings and erect 10 glamping pods.
The exact design of the pods is yet to be determined, but those behind the scheme insist it would "complement" other tourism operations in the area.
