camping and conservation

BeeGreen camping club can issue exemption certificates in wales allowing our certified sites to have up to 5 shepherd hut/pods & 10 tents. Unlike many other organisations we don't require you to live on site, giving you much more freedom to where you can start your glamping site. We also have close links with moonlight shepherd huts who are wales largest shepherd hut manufacturers who are on hand to offer knowledge and expertise in getting your site up and running.

Saving the bees

We ask that all our sites plant bee saving flowers and create bee safe environments. We have received very positive feedback from our members and now all our hut and pod sites utilise a sustainable and practical approach to help conserve our bee population. 

Bumblebees are hard-working and versatile insects that provide an important pollination service to flowering plants.

The different bumblebee species present on a site will vary geographically and seasonally, but some key principles will help you to make bumblebee-friendly decisions for a wide range of species on your land.

The most important objective when improving a site for bumblebees is to increase the abundance and diversity of bumblebee-friendly plants and to ensure that flowers are available throughout the year, but especially from March to October. Even small patches of flower-rich habitat scattered across a site will help to ensure that bumblebees do not need to forage too far from their nest.

When deciding how to manage land more sensitively for bumblebees, you must first identify what habitats are already present. It is particularly important to note where there are existing flowering plants for bumblebees and when they flower – this tells you where and when you have gaps in forage availability. It is also important to identify where you have good nesting habitat including tussocky grass, woodland edge, hedgerows and other dense vegetation.
