Rather than buy in “off the shelf” glamping units, John Brookshaw said the ten mini-lodges were the result of a design collaboration between his architects and UK manufacturer Retreat.

“Glamping has made many advances since the trend to a whole new level,” he said.

“In particular, we wanted to cater for guests who enjoy staying throughout the four seasons, and this involved us ensuring that the units remain snug all year round.

“Our research also suggests that whilst people love glamping as a concept, they don’t want to trade off comforts such as proper showers and cooking facilities, or full-size beds.

“We’re delighted that so many people applied toshoot, and our two families did a fantastic job in showcasing them with real enthusiasm!” said John.

Andrew and Anwen and their sons Jacob and Noah from Wrexham, and Ben and Laura and their daughter Olivia from Marford near Wrexham, will now enjoy three-night breaks in the lodges as guests of Plassey.

A previous winner of the “Best Place to Stay” accolade in the National Tourism Awards for Wales, Plassey is a former dairy farm which first started welcoming campers over 50 years ago.

As well as glamping, there are holiday homes touring facilities.
