TAKE THE ultimate busman’s holiday with this quirky accommodation contained inside a renovated double-decker bus in Wales.
Incredible images show the blue bus from the outside with a porch area, the surprisingly spacious interior featuring a living area and kitchen on the ground floor.
A dining area and toilet is also available downstairs while on the upper deck there is a large double bed and windows provide spectacular views of the surrounding countryside.
The vintage 1964 Leyland Titan double decker bus has been renovated into a vibrant glamping location that sleeps up to six.
The converted bus is located at Ceridwen Centre, an organic farm that offers a number of unique lodgings, such as converted barns, yurts and even a cool eco pod.
“The Double Decker Bus at the Ceridwen Centre is definitely glamping in style,” states the listing.
“The owners have cleverly converted a vintage, 1964 Leyland Titan double-decker bus into quirky self-catering accommodation in the Teifi Valley. It sleeps six people in two double rooms with a sofa bed downstairs, and is perfect for couples, families or friends who want to stay in a place that is as much about the holiday experience as the destination.
“How could you forget your holiday in a bus? There is a shop on-site selling local produce and crafts (and Welsh ice-cream!), as well as a bar (open for events but selling organic wines, ales and spirits at other times), and the venue is only a mile from the village of Drefach Felindre with a shop and the Tafarn John Y Gwas pub for a fine pint of local ale.
“The Ceridwen Centre has environmentally friendly principles at its heart and is a fantastic holiday destination with a variety of accommodation that suits all ages and budgets, ranging from an eco pod that sleeps two, five yurts and a spacious farmhouse with room for 19 people.
“When booked together, the Ceridwen Centre can accommodate 60 people, and because it is on 40-private acres of organic farmland, it is peaceful, private, and perfect for everything from family celebrations to holistic retreats.”
