“The property owners have gone above & beyond to make there cabin a fantastic stay, they have thought of every home comfort, we didn't need a thing!”

! I took extra blankets/jumpers because I feel the cold, but never needed them! The cabin is fitted with a top heating system, very warm cosy bedding & the best comfy mattresses... The best night's sleep! With a stunning waterfall just to the side of the property it was so tranquil with a morning cuppa & the autumn leaves falling from the trees. Other reviews have slated the drive up the mountain with parts of the road being a no through road, im a woman driver and can honestly say its not that ...

A massive Thank You to Gareth & Jayne x

Anthony October 2024

“A wonderful cabin in a lovely location!”

Well resourced with everything needed. Peaceful with little stream outside!

- Anthony, October 2024
Sandra October 2024

“Lovely Caban in beautiful surroundings warm and cosy.”

The waterfall and stream very relaxing enjoyed every minute of our visit.

- Sandra, October 2024

Brilliant to hear Sandra! Thank you for taking the time to leave such a good review. We hope to have you back. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Victor September 2024

“Only drawback was the distance 2 1/2 miles out of Conwy up very narrow and twisty lanes/tracks, difficulty in access to parking space through large heavy and sagging gate where sprung shot bolt did not align, and upward path plus steps into property.”

This was a chore in and out every day!!! Not ideal for elderly persons. The accomodation was very good and every thing was available.

- Victor, September 2024

We are glad you still found the accommodation good, despite the drawbacks mentioned regarding the lane and hilly location. We have tried to make this clear on the property description. The gate has been re-aligned, thanks for highlighting. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Ian July 2024

“Enjoyed our stay at Y Caban, a very restful location.”

The road uphill to the property was a challenge however

- Ian, July 2024

Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you found Y Caban restful. We are aware the road can be challenging - it is mentioned on Sykes description so people can weigh up the pros and cons - wish we could widen it!! Many thanks, Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Stephen June 2024

“Our stay at the lodge was a very nice experience.”

Comfortable, clean and wonderfully located for our needs. Its is quite and ideally placed to be able to explore north Wales and Snowdonia. The hosts were available on request but left us to our own devices so privacy was not an issue even though they live less than 100 yards away. Overall a wonderful stay. Would highly recommend and intend to go again soon.

- Stephen, June 2024

Lovely to hear you had such a good stay and we thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Would love to have you back. Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner

A fantastic place really enjoyed our stay only thing shower was a bit small and water could have done with being hotter but could not fault anything else wanted for nothing

- Neil Thomas, June 2024

Thanks for the great feedback and we are glad you enjoyed it. We noted your feedback regarding the shower. The water is solar powered and it has been very un-sunny this summer hasn't it?! So we will look at increasing the boost from the mains system to make up for the lack of sunshine. Good to know. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Elizabeth May 2024

“Such a special place!”

Very private & tucked away, the stream gives an amazing sound. The cabin is warm, spacious, water hot, everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Definitely going back when I need to get away from it all! Having said that it’s only 10minutes from plenty of places so you could use it as a base if you wanted to explore north wales

- Elizabeth, May 2024

Many thanks for your lovely feedback, we love hearing what people enjoy about staying here and appreciate your taking the time to review. We do hope you manage to return. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Nicola April 2024

“I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

!!! The cabin was spotlessly clean and very spacious for 3 of us. Loved the open plan layout so all the family could be together. The cabin was even better in real life than the pictures on the website. Heating in every room, was so toastie. All utensils provided and if you needed anything else all you had to do was to ask the wonderful Jayne, who was so helpful. From the moment I got out the car on arrival, I found it magical! Surrounded by trees, the walk to the front door of the cabin, through the garden followed the most beautiful stream. To hear the constant running water brought a sense of peace, calm and tranquility, just beautiful! We were there to climb Snowdon, which was only 30-40 minute drive. Conwy Castle in the town centre was approximately 10 minute drive, Chester one hour drive and Aber Falls 30 minute drive. If you love walking and hiking in the countryside, this is for you, if you enjoy peace, reading, relaxing or sightseeing this is for you. Just a magical little hideaway. Miss it already! Thank you so much Jayne, very grateful

- Nicola, April 2024

Well Nicky we get some lovely feedback but this is the most enthusiastic review ever and thank you for phoning me to tell me personally how much you enjoyed it. Would you consider going into marketing? Haha. We would LOVE to have you back, such a pleasure to have matched your break to your expectations! Thanks again. Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Victoria March 2024

“Absolutely amazing stay this cabin is beautiful, the little stream next had a waterfall too (might be the time of year with all the rain).”

I’ve genuinely never stayed anywhere so clean I’m so impressed and the owners were lovely and quick to respond when needed. Will definitely look for availability if we’re visiting the area again, 100% recommend.

- Victoria, March 2024

Many thanks for your kind feedback, we are really delighted to know you enjoyed it and found it to your liking. We hope to see you back again in the future. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Wanda January 2024

“Absolutely fab location and cabin.”

1 slight opinion is the bed could do with new mattress. We seemed to roll to the middle

- Wanda, January 2024

Thanks Wanda for your kind feedback and useful to know that you found the mattress may need replacing - good to know - we will look into this immediately. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Margaret January 2024

Jaimie December 2023

“This place is absolutely wonderful, nestled in a quiet area just outside Conwy.”

The cabin was spotless, and had everything we needed and more. The kitchen is fully stocked and the owners were on hand to help if needed. Plenty of walking routes from the cabin too, look forward to visiting again!

- Jaimie, December 2023

Thanks so much Jaimie and Rhys! We appreciate your lovely feedback and thank you for going to the trouble of leaving a card and gift, how very kind. We do hope you will return. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth Property Owner
Martin October 2023

“Outstanding rural location, combining scenic walks with the added option of Conway a short drive away.”

A very good base for exploring the area. Accommodation very clean and facilities provided excellent. Recommend a walk to the local historic church with its breath taking scenery. Really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. Martin and Kerry

- Martin, October 2023

Thank you Martin and Kerry, sorry we didn't get to see you in person, it went so fast! But we are glad you enjoyed your stay! Thanks for the fabulous review and we hope to catch you if you return. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Margaret September 2023

“This place is a gem hidden away in the hillside, just perfect for nature and watching all the little birds feeding and the sound from your own waterfalls.”

Some great walks from your doorstep offering amazing views and don't forget to visit the little church steeped with history that's just above the property. The property it's self is spotless warm and cosy and has everything you need and great owners on hand if needed, this was my second visit and will definitely be back

- Margaret, September 2023

Wow thanks Margaret for that feedback! We love it when we hear guests have really appreciated the place and enjoyed their break so much, makes it all worthwhile. Thank you by the way for leaving it so spotless! We will look forward to seeing you again soon! Jayne and Gareth x Property Owner
Joan August 2023

“Lovely cabin, well stocked and loads of extras like books, dvd’s, sewing kit, places to visit leaflets and games.”

Stream gorgeous and location near Conwy perfect for touring. Location details do however need to be more obvious on description prior to booking as these details are only provided upon payment, lane to accommodation quite lethal with a few near misses. Not for the faint hearted.

- Joan, August 2023
Tracey August 2023

“A very beautiful cottage, exactly as described when we booked it.”

We all really enjoyed our stay. It was very relaxing. The cottage was delightful, cosy & very clean. It was also in a perfect and very peaceful location. We would definitely book a future stay here & would recommend it to family & friends.

- Tracey, August 2023

Thank you Tracey for your kind feedback! So glad to hear you had a good stay. Would be lovely to have you back. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth Property Owner
Michelle July 2023

“What a beautiful place and area.”

Jane was amazingly helpful. The caban was clean, everything was available from cooking to bedding/bathroom. We really enjoyed our stay. Jane even left us a map on where to get what etc. Wonderful. The price was cheap and we will definitely go again. I recommend this holiday home to everyone.

- Michelle, July 2023

Aw thanks Michelle, what fantastic feedback to receive! It makes it so worthwhile when guests really enjoy their stay. Would love to have you back! Best wishes Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Declan July 2023

“Brilliant! The owner was super helpful with any questions, very knowledgable about the area and easy to get hold off.”

The property was even better in person tbh, we really felt like we had our own country hideaway, in a gorgeous spot for the week. Y Caban was well furnished and easy to get to. There’s a lovely walk up the hill that’s a must do.

- Declan, July 2023

Thanks so much for the review, it was a pleasure to host your group and we are very glad to hear you enjoyed your experience here. All the best, Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Gerald June 2023

“Y Caban was in an ideal situation for us as we prefer quiet accommodation in the countryside close to walking country.”

The cabin was spotless and everything we needed was to hand. For anyone requiring a similar holiday to us I can highly recommend Y Caban.

- Gerald, June 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are always delighted when we match our guests' idea of a good holiday! Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Ruth March 2023

“A very beautiful well kept area and cabin.”

We enjoyed the peace and quiet listening to the birds singing and the stream and waterfalls were just magical. It was just a lovely break.

- Ruth, March 2023

Fantastic to hear, thanks for the feedback. Hope to see you again. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Tony February 2023

Perfect there's nothing I can or would change owners and cabin are Perfect to it has everything and more loved it and definitely be going again thanks

- Tony, February 2023

Wow thanks Tony and family, it was a pleasure and what lovely feedback! See you again soon hopefully. Best wishes Gareth and Jayne. Property Owner
Sally February 2023

“A very comfortable, warm cottage, with a very well-equipped kitchen.”

Loads of birds in the garden and lovely stream etc. although we would have felt a bit closed in if the trees had been in leaf. The area would be idyllic for walkers etc. (sadly we're no longer able to do hill walking). The layout has been changed since the photos, meaning that the only coat pegs are now alongside the TV, which is not ideal. We also found the lighting challenging for reading, both in the living area and the bedrooms and missed not having a mirror in the twin room. I would not like to try to park 2 cars (unless both were small) in the parking area, because of its cliff sides, and had to drive up the road to a wider turning to be able to turn round every time we went out (and I am an IAM driver).

- Sally, February 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to give honest feedback. We are glad you found your stay mostly positive and appreciate your suggestions on what you thought could be improved. Always good to see things from our guests' perspective. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Sarah November 2022

“A perfect hidaway surrounded by nature.”

We'll definately be back!

- Sarah, November 2022

So glad to hear you enjoyed your break. Would love to have you back. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Janet November 2022

“A lovely spacious, comfortable, well equipped lodge surrounded by trees and very private.”

We enjoyed our stay so thank you Jayne.

- Janet, November 2022

So kind of you to give such a good review thank you Janet and we are glad you enjoyed it even though you had to cut your visit short. Hope you may be able to return. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Toby October 2022

“Another lovely stay our second time and would recommend y cabin to anyone who likes to get away from it all in beautiful tranquil settings.”

The cabin is quiet cosy and is well equipped and private with lovely mountain walks a short distance away. .

- Toby, October 2022

Thank you Toby, we appreciate your kind comments and are so pleased you have returned! Looking forward to having you back over the Christmas break. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Peter October 2022

“A very relaxing and cosy retreat in the foot hills of Conwy about 10 mins drive from the town centre.”

The stream and waterfall right next to the cabin was magical, our children loved making dams and playing in it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this as a quiet and peaceful retreat.

- Peter, October 2022

Wonderful feedback, we are very pleased to hear you had such a good time, would love to have you back. Kind regards Jayne and Gareth. Property Owner
Fariba October 2022

“It was such beautiful relaxing place would highly recommend to people who love nature and want to experience it at its best.”

The cabin was lovely and had everything you needed. I only wished the short distance to the cabin instead of single lane it was double lane as i personally was not confident driving it.

- Fariba, October 2022

Thanks so much for your lovely feedback, we appreciate your time in sending it. We totally agree the single track road is not so easy. Thank you for your kind gift of home grown veg and fruit! All the best. Property Owner
Christine October 2022

“Such lovely surroundings the cabin was in can not fault it,it did worry us a little the single country lane leading to the cabin we did know it was a single track but not for at least 2 miles which was busy and the reversing a bit of a worry when not a lot of passing spaces,the cabin itself was spotless but we found the water was yellow and it did smell which made us wary to drink,this maybe to do with the filter system ?”

The beds were not very comfy as the sofa and chair,well stocked with books,films and games if needed for children,we don't think we will visit again but such a lovely area to place a cabin and the streams and wildlife were outstanding.

- Christine, October 2022

Thank you for taking the time to give feedback and we appreciate the many positives you noted. The situation of Y Caban is not everyone's cup of tea and we have tried to make this clear on the description to avoid disappointment, but we appreciate your review will help prospective visitors to weigh up whether the narrow road is a barrier for them or not. Comfort of beds is a subjective matter and the 97% positive reviews over the last 6 months indicate that most people find the cabin meets their comfort needs but we are sorry you didn't find the beds to your liking. The water is a natural supply, not mains, and as such we have to have it professionally tested annually and we regularly change the filters, occasional discoloration can occur from naturally occurring pigments, but we can reassure guests that this is not detrimental. Kind regards Jayne. Property Owner
Margaret September 2022

“Fantastic place in a great location and it's a walkers paradise”

- Margaret, September 2022

It was a pleasure to meet you thanks for the feedback. Would love to welcome you again. Property Owner
Yvonne September 2022

“Property far exceeded our expectations, so well fitted out-it was a real home from home.”

Our grandchildren loved seeing the stream and resident sheep.a big thank you to the owners for making us so welcome and comfortable.

- Yvonne, September 2022

Wow thanks for such fantastic feedback, we love it when people really enjoy our caban and the idyllic location and we appreciate your time in feeding this back. So glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Hydie August 2022

“Exactly what we needed a peaceful place with a beautiful scenery.”

The town is not far away from the cabin. Waterfalls close by. I highly recommend this place my kids was very happy.

- Hydie, August 2022

Thank you for your positive feedback, we are very happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and we appreciate your time in sending a review. Hope to see you again. Property Owner
Laura August 2022

“We absolutely loved our stay at Y Caban - it was a fantastic base for exploring North Wales.”

The cottage was beautiful, peaceful & well equipped. The beds were comfortable & we couldn’t have asked for more from our stay. We would definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in Wales.

- Laura, August 2022

We are delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your stay, it makes it so worthwhile! Thank you for leaving the cabin so clean and tidy. We would love to have you back. Property Owner
Natasha June 2022

“Really enjoyed our stay at the cabin, was perfect with the baby.”

Lovely and spacious, very clean and homely and a beautiful setting. Would definately stay again and recommend.

Thank you, it was a delight to meet you and find we had so much in common. We appreciate your leaving the cabin so clean and tidy. Wonderful guests! Property Owner
Phillip May 2022

“This is our second time we stayed at this property.”

Previously at Christmas in 2018 and now in early summer 2022. Both visits were unique and outstanding at different times of the year. The host is perfect providing a very clean and very well equipped accommodation. The area is extremely beautiful and very rural which adds to the charm. If you desire peace and tranquilly in a rural unspoilt area then look no further. Perfect getaway, thanks again.

- Phillip, May 2022

Thank you for your lovely comments, flowers and for leaving the cabin so clean! It was a pleasure to see you again, the perfect guests! Property Owner
Rebecca May 2022

“Brilliant stay.”

And location. Very private. Loved the stream directly next to cabin. Plenty of local walks & close enough to the town for amenities. Hosts were welcoming & easy to contact. Liked that a lot of things in cabin are eco friendly. & facilities in cabin are really good . Will definitely be back

- Rebecca, May 2022

Thank you so much for your kind feedback and we are so glad you enjoyed your visit. Thank you also for leaving the cabin clean and tidy, we hope to welcome you again. Property Owner
Alona April 2022

“Excellent place, we enjoyed all our time what we spend there.”

There is so many games and books and CD’s for kids , our son didn’t feel bored at all. 100% recommended to peoples who would like to relax from busy town’s.

- Alona, April 2022
Olwen March 2022

“Quiet, peaceful location, ideal for people who enjoy embracing nature and enjoy hill walking and bird watching.”

There are walks from the door for those who are seasoned walkers but also easier walks if you travel a few miles towards the coast. An enjoyable stay, thank you.

- Olwen, March 2022
Marcin February 2022

“Lovely Cabin in a great remote location,if you fancy peace and quiet then this is it!”

The stream runing around it is very relaxing,we really enjoyed our 3 night stay and would definitly consider coming back.

- Marcin, February 2022
Jane February 2022

“Lovely cabin, with everything you need.”

Fab location for walking. Thanks for the complimentry bottle of wine on arrival. Would definitely come back again .

- Jane, February 2022
Sam December 2021

“Beautiful location.”

Very well equipped. Warm and cosy. Friendly and informative telephone service. Reasonably priced. Would wholeheartedly recommend again.

- Sam, December 2021
Janine November 2021

“We loved our short break at Y Cabin.”

It was superbly maintained and ideally placed for walking. The climbs are steep but you can find complete silence up the mountain. There is a lovely and remote church to visit. The heating was more than adequate, the water was always warm and we liked the owners' philosophy about recycling and providing heating and water in an eco friendly manner. The approach road is challenging and the turning into the parking area is tight. I found the gate heavy to lift. Take stout walking boots and enjoy the sound of the babbling brook nearby.

- Janine, November 2021
Toby November 2021

“We had a really lovely 4 nights in the idyllic wooden y cabin we could've fault it cosy ,clean warm.”

And so peaceful in a tranquil setting we highly reccomend it and definitely will return!

- Toby, November 2021
Jacqueline September 2021

“Very clean.”

Plenty of pans, kitchen utensils, cleaning products, Nice setting, surrounded by trees with stream running beside it.

- Jacqueline, September 2021
Garry September 2021

“The Cabin was amazing.”

The road upto it was dreadful very narrow and to actually parking your vehicle was very bad. Narrow gate off narrow road. Getting in and out very difficult. Could do with WiFi but plenty of books DVDs in the cabin. Only complaint for inside the cabin. Oven was very dirty.

- Garry, September 2021
Barbara September 2021

“The pictures really do not do this lovely cabin justice.”

Nestled in woodland surrounded by bubbling streams and waterfalls, it felt like we had arrived in a fairy glen. The cabin is very comfortable and one of the nicest we have stayed in. We loved sitting on the stones and paddling our feet in the stream after a day out. Well placed to visit Conwy and surrounding area. We walked up the hill from the cabin, it is very steep but there are some amazing views. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend.

- Barbara, September 2021
Clare August 2021

“WIFI would be a great addition to the cabin but other than that nothing else to add .”

- Clare, August 2021
Linda July 2021

“Wonderful peaceful log cabin away from it all.”

Comfortable and clean with all facilities required. Loved being able to listen to the stream with no other noise pollution. An excellent stay and definitely recommend.

- Linda, July 2021
Jonathan July 2021

“The road to the cabin could be a challenge for drivers not used to single track roads.”

Wi-Fi could be useful for some guests but I didn't miss it. We enjoyed the peaceful location and waking to the sound of the stream next to the cabin.

- Jonathan, July 2021
Joanne April 2021

“Great experience with the quirky location this is a holiday back to nature sit ...”

Great experience with the quirky location this is a holiday back to nature sit in the garden and listen to the waterfall a peaceful location all you can hear is birds and the flow of stream water won’t give to much away as the Y Barn will leave you feeling refreshed

- Joanne, April 2021
Jodie December 2020

“The cabin was amazing.”

Clean, tidy and so cosy. It was lovely and warm all the time. So peaceful listening to the screams each morning. The owner was very helpful , left a bottle of buck fuzz on arrival , toilet rolls, washing up liquid , towels and bedding. The kids loved it, dvds to watch, board games. I will be going back. Lovely 5 day break..

- Jodie, December 2020
Stephanie September 2020

“The cabin is a beautiful idyll set in a peaceful hillside with running streams close by to lull you to a peaceful rest.”

The facilities are exceptional and you want for nothing. The photos do nothing to reflect the beauty of the surroundings and The Cabin is exactly as in the pictures. The concerns for the current climate are addressed and I felt safe in the environment. There are welcome essentials with long life milk and a lovely bottle of Prosecco left by the hosts who are near enough to help if needed but leave you to make yourself at home. The location is great for a base to visit local sites and there is plenty to do. I had a wonderful break with my daughter and will definitely be returning. Thank you

- Stephanie, September 2020
Trevor September 2020

“If you you're looking for peace and quiet this is the place, close to Conwy, Llandudno and Snowdonia.”

......... magic !

- Trevor, September 2020
P February 2020

“I had high expectations for the cottage.”

They were fully met. The directions to get to the cottage were a little confusing: a "yellow grit container" is mentioned, but there are 2 along the road (the second one being the mentioned one), could be worth saying this to help guests find the location.

- P, February 2020
Gemma December 2019

“Lovely accomadation in the perfect location the owner Lynn was lovely too!”

Would definitely recommend.

- Gemma, December 2019
Kay November 2019

“Lovely cabin - warm, clean & cosy.”

Pretty gardens with tumbling streams and easy access to miles of mountain pathways.

- Kay, November 2019
Virginia October 2019

“The only thing we could say that would be an advantage at y caban is a log burner in the living room area.”

As winter approaches, maybe it would benefit people to have some heating in the living area. But other than that, I can't fault the place, the owners were quick to assist and help with the problem we had with the electric heater we had. It was a wonderful place and we will definitely be going back... V. Ainsworth.

- Virginia, October 2019
Alison October 2019

“Absolutely lovely cabin.”

Beautiful surroundings. Pictures do not do y caban justice. It is so much better.....would 100 per cent come again and recommend to others..

- Alison, October 2019
Tina September 2019

“Everything about our holiday was amazing.”

The lodge we stayed in was extremely warm and welcoming and far beyond our expectations.

- Tina, September 2019
S September 2019

“The road up to the cabin is steep twisty and narrow !”

Would go again if younger !

- S, September 2019
Johan August 2019

“Lovely cottage, all was there what was needed, very complete.”

Clean and cosy. The North of Wales is beautiful and there is a lot to explore.

- Johan, August 2019
Katie August 2019

“Y Caban is practically perfect.”

It's spacious but still cosy with all of the facilities you could possibly need and is located in stunning surroundings. We can't wait to book again and return!

- Katie, August 2019
Alan July 2019

“Nice cabin up at the top of a valley nice and peaceful all facilities catered for nice owners very helpful however not easily found as satnav only takes you so far and instructions a bit basic and not much information is given about the roads Wich are single track a lot of the way with not many passing points so if you meet traffic it is a nightmare however other than that we enjoyed the holiday.”

- Alan, July 2019
Gillian July 2019

“Y Caban is a lovely cabin surrounded by trees with a stream flowing by.”

It is very comfortable although a bit out of the way, accessible by very narrow and steep country lanes. There are walks from the cabin but all are steep although the views make the effort worthwhile. The local lanes are like a maze and we would have been lost without our vehicles good mapping system. The coast and woodland walks are within easy reach by car though so the cabin is a reasonable base although it did lack WiFi and a distant view from the cabin which is blocked by trees. Good holiday though in a great area.

- Gillian, July 2019
Rachel April 2019

“We spent three nights at Y Caban with our two children aged 5 and 7.”

It was wonderful, Jayne was really welcoming and the cottage was clean and cosy. The little stream and grounds were perfect. The children played outside and especially loved Yammy the sheep and her new lamb. The location too was fantastic peaceful hills yet close enough to all the many delights of North Wales. We’ll be returning!

- Rachel, April 2019
Rachael April 2019

“A lovely lodge nestled high in the hills.”

It had everything we needed to have a very comfortable holiday. A particular highlight for our children was being able to explore the garden and the streams in it - such fun. The lodge is ideally situated for easy access to Snowdonia, the coast, Anglesey etc. Would definitely recommend and we hope to return.

- Rachael, April 2019
Andrew January 2019

“The peace and quiet and location was amazing Extremely comfortable and cosy ...”

The peace and quiet and location was amazing Extremely comfortable and cosy after a day out exploring Lovely walks and nearby places to visit Conwy was a great place to spend a good few hours, we all enjoyed it there Can't wait to stay again

- Andrew, January 2019
Phillip December 2018

“The most Beautiful Christmas getaway ever.”

On arrival we were greeted with wine and fudge sweets left for us on the table. Made to feel very welcome. The Y Caban (the cabin) was warm, cosy, clean and very well equipped. Our wonderful host Mrs Moore had decorated the cabin with a Christmas tree and lights inside and outside. The location is beautiful with water falls and stream on three sides, idyllic. There are many very picturesque attractions only 10-15 minutes’ drive away even in winter. The road leading to the cabin is tight and winding, that you get used to, just adds to the attraction. If you enjoy peace and quite and love country life then this place is very highly recommended. Will certainly be returning.

- Phillip, December 2018
Adam November 2018

“Very peaceful, cabin was lovely and the town is nearby which is handy.”

- Adam, November 2018
David September 2018

“The road to the cottage is very long and steep.”

Not for the fainthearted or anyone with a big car!!

- David, September 2018
Julie August 2018

“Y Caban is bigger than it looks on the pictures and occupies an elevated position at the rear of the owners land.”

We had a wonderful week there. Not only is the location idyllic but the living space is perfect for a family break. It's rare you go on holiday and feel so at home. We had everything we needed including a lovely host. Conwy itself is just brimming with things to do and the beach, which is 15 minutes away is fab. We spent a lot of time in the lovely town too. We didn't manage to do everything, which is good because it means we get to go back. Loved it!

“Holiday was great.”

We visited everywhere we wanted to visit. Accommodation itself was fine, and in a beautiful spot. Only saw the owners once, who were very friendly and let our children play on their daughter's swing and in their garden. Lodge had everything we wanted. Beds were comfy, shower was hot. All good!

“We really enjoy our week at the cabin , but it is the first time in 10 years of taking holidays in cabins/holiday cottages that the owners didn't meet us on arrival or at some point during the stay we really found it strange.”

Apart from that the cabin was lovely, inviting, well equipped and in a quite area which we love and the stream was an amazing bonus.

“This is a beautiful cabin, we loved staying here.”

It's a lovely quiet setting with the sound of the stream passing by. The cabin is very well equipped indeed, with everything you could need. We were particularly impressed with ecological aspects, and attention to detail. We did find the narrow and hilly roads, whilst very picturesque, a bit scary in case of meeting the occasional vehicle coming in the opposite direction, but we didn't actually experience any problems. Sadly the lanes were a bit too hilly for walking for our elderly knees, although one of us did walk some way up after turning left out of the cabin drive and was rewarded with fantastic views and scenery. We had a lovely welcome package so could get a cup of tea on arrival and were treated to a delightful floral posy which lasted the whole week. We tried approaching it initially from the south trying to avoid Conwy, but that was a mistake and we'd recommend head for Conwy first and then follow the instructions, apart from the final sign for the Old Church, (and the recent absence of the phone box didn't help) where you need to turn right instead of left. The heatwave and constant sunshine was a real bonus, if a bit of a trial at times, but if we'd had rain and not wanted to go out there was plenty to do "at home". We'd recommend this heartily. as a great place to explore the area, which has much to offer.

“The most relaxing week away ever!”

! Beautiful beaches to stroll along and plenty to do within a 5 mile radius. The cabin was idyllic.... beautiful sunrises and sunsets and lulled to sleep by the sound of the stream which covers three sides of the cabins setting. Would definitely book again and strongly recommend it to our friends

“A real get away place, up a narrow quiet country lane surrounded by mountains.”

The cabin was very comfortable with a good shower and a sofa that you can really sink in to. The owner was friendly and there was everything that you need. The sound of running water from the stream is all you can hear.

“Good morning, my husband and I plus two aging dogs enjoyed our stay at The Cabin very much.”

It is a real chill out place yet within easy reach of places to visit and enjoy the views. Facilities ideal for our needs. The owners were on hand but did not appear intrusive in any way. Hope to revisit.

About the location

CONWY

Llandudno 5 miles; Betws-y-Coed 16 miles.

Conwy, a World Heritage Site, is without doubt world famous for its historical and architectural heritage, yet at the heart of the town lies a hub of bustling activity. Alongside its ancient festivals and fairs, musical recitals, galleries and historical attractions, there is an array of specialist shops, restaurants and hotels. Built for King Edward I between 1283 and 1287, Master James of St George's design, Conwy Castle remains one of the most outstanding achievements of medieval military architecture. The distinctive, elongated shape, with its two barbicans, eight massive towers and a great bow-shaped hall was perhaps determined by the narrow rocky outcrop on which the castle stands. The town is proud of its historic traditions and celebrates its past by retaining many of these in its annual festivals, events and fairs, including the Honey fair, Seed fair and Gwledd Conwy Feast in October, along with other musical events throughout the year. Conwy is the perfect base for exploring the dramatic Snowdonia National Park, walking unspoilt sandy beaches, or taking in the wonderful scenery on your doorstep. Also within reach are the Llechwedd Slate Caverns, which has the longest zip wire in Europe, and Surf Snowdonia is just six miles away.
