Year of Legends 2017: 8 Secret Pop Up Hotels In Wales Disappear After Tourists Sleep In Them

After celebrating the Year of Adventure in 2016, travelers will get to experience Wales' Year of Legends this 2017 and visitors are in for a surprise when they can book a stay over in a secret pop-up hotel in Wales that will disappear after tourists sleep in them.

Epic Retreats, as it is called, allows domestic and foreign visitors to bask in the country's best landscapes and enjoy the trails of Wales while staying in one of eight boutique hotels designed basely on Welsh history, traditions and stories specifically made for the year.

In a press release, Best of Wales Director, Llion Pughe, said, "We are thrilled to announce the designs for the Epic Retreats pop-up glamping units." She continued to say that with incredible locations, exciting program of activities and eight unique structures, Epic Retreats will celebrate the best Wales has to offer during its Year of Legends.

"Our passion for Wales and its history has provided a great source of inspiration for this project and we look forward to giving guests the opportunity to wake up to Wales in the country's first ever boutique pop-up glamping hotel," Pughe added.

From the Welsh Mining Industry to King Arthur, Black Hat and Cabin in the Woods, two dragon cabins, Sky hut and Slate Cabin, these eight pop up stay overs have been created by architects all over the world, with two from the country itself. They are available in three secret destinations of Welsh landscapes.

Epic Retreats stated on its website that the Welsh experience with them includes a three-night weekend and four-night midweek 'legendary' experiences at each location 'celebrating the best of Wales, from meals prepared with the finest local ingredients to evening entertainment from Welsh artists.'

But hurry up, they suggested. Bookings are only available to guests lower than 200 in pax. Only a few will get to sleep in their chosen pop hotels will disappear after you sleep in them.

The Epic Retreats project is a partnership between Best of Wales, Cambria Tours, and George + Tomos Architects and is partly funded by the Welsh Government's Tourism Product Innovation Fund.
