Plans for glamping site with sauna and hot tub in village near Usk

Plans have been lodged for two glamping pods near Usk in Monmouthshire.

If approved, the plans will see a glamping site, which includes a sauna and hot tub, at the Old Cottage Camp in the village of Bettws Newydd.

The site, which has most recently been used for equine purposes, currently possesses a six-horse stable block, which would be repurposed as part of the application.

Each of the two glamping pods would benefit from sleeping areas, living areas, a kitchen and toilet facilities.

A hot tub has also been proposed as part of the plans and a smaller building would be converted into a sauna.

The stable block would be converted into communal showers, toilets and a kitchen dining area.

A planning statement says that noise levels will be managed by the applicants, who are also the nearest neighbours to the proposed glamping pods site.

A decision will be made by Monmouthshire County Council planners in the coming months.
