Only been here 1 night out of 3 so far and already feel relaxed and comfortable. Exactly what I needed after a year of hard work and no time off. Some lovely homemade welsh cakes and bottle of wine left for us which was a lovely appreciated surprise. Best night sleep ive had in a long time. Really comfortable bed and the beautiful sound of the stream outside. Will certainly enjoy the rest of the stay here and will definitely come here again. Due to restrictions on travel I had to holiday within Wales and definitely chose the right place. Beautiful. Only criticism I have is the parking is slightly awkward with the position of the gate but that maybe because I was in a transit van

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

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.

Lovely cabin - warm, clean & cosy.. Pretty gardens with tumbling streams and easy access to miles of mountain pathways.

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.

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..

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.

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!

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.

Fantastic views,very comfortable in the cabin home from home ,far enough away from the hustle and bustle, peace and quiet,looking forward to my week again in March. I would recommend it too all, fantastic walking in the mountains I loved it. Main shopping and the sea only ten minutes away Conwy. Family very friendly and helpful. If you enjoy the great outdoors as I do I would recommend it.

The road to the cottage is very long and steep.. Not for the fainthearted or anyone with a big car!!

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!

I have stayed at the cabin 3 times when visiting the UK from Australia. I stayed last time with my fiancé and we loved it. So peaceful and beautiful, the amenities are great, everything you need. There is a small hill to get to the lodge but nothing too taxing. The town of Conwy is around a 10/15 minute drive through the country lanes and it’s a typical country town.... this is somewhere you holiday if you’re looking to get away from it all and enjoy all that nature and the beautiful Snowdonia National Park has to offer. We were surprised though at how many different action activities are close by. I have been at different times in the year and it always delivers. Love the friendliness and care taken by the hosts as well, for the people looking for a peaceful getaway at a very reasonable price I highly recommend it.

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.

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!

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.

We have just returned home from a week at the lodge, we came home a day early. It was booked for my husband and I with out daughter and son in law. Lodge is NOT made for 4 adults as the second bedroom beds are not comfortable at all!!! All the amenities are there and the lodge was very clean. The solar panels start at 7:30 am which was noisy so woke us all up! The decking area could be done up nicer as due to the area being surrounded by large over grown trees it attracts a large amount of flies and midges which isn’t ideal. This also cuts out a lot of the sunlight which is a shame. The lodge itself is very remote which isn’t advertised well in the details. Anyone who is older or has young children should do some research before booking here as the small parking area is a short walk from the lodge, you’ve to pass a bridge over a stream and a little path to get to the lodge which would be problematic for anyone with mobility issues! The single track road which leads to the lodge is very narrow and winding and isn’t ideal when you meet a tractor or other large vehicle and have to reverse back down such a narrow track! The lack of comfort in the beds and the amount of midges was the main reason we all came home early as when it’s warm we didn’t feel able to sit with the windows open due to the flies and midges and couldn’t eat outside due to this either. A real shame as we were so looking forward to this break for the week but won’t be going back again.

Absolutely amazing.. The cabin is gorgeous surround by streams and waterfalls. Hosts were great had one day of bad snow and they messaged to make sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be booking to stay there again.

The location is remote enough to escape from the hustle and bustle of life but a great location to get to Anglesey and Snowdonia, with walks easily accessible from the cabin. The cabin has a great layout with plenty of space for cooking, eating and chilling. I stayed here during Feb and is was defo warm enough with our host making sure that we had everything we needed when it snowed! I made some great memories here with my boyfriend and would suggest anyone (of any age) to come here and make there own.

Fantastic place to stay highly recommended, can be a difficult road to drive to, but once there it is very scenic and close to the mountains and walking paths.. We visited in winter and still had a great time but I could imagine in the summer it would be beautiful!

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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay in Y Caban and the owners had provided everything we required and were there to welcome us. The chalet itself is quite isolated and so peaceful with a stream around three sides. The only bugbear was the narrow winding lanes in the area - we got used to these. The area is very interesting, lots to see and do without travelling too far.. we recommend Penrhyn beach as a must visit, Obviously you have to take the cable car up Snowdon into the clouds wow! We didn't tend to eat out much apart from coffee and/or hot chocolate but did find a bakery in Conwyn main street who do huge crunchy jam do'nuts yummy, do try them. We went to lots of National Trust Gardens, Bodnant aren't very dog friendly, shame, but so impressed with Plas Newydd House (house closed that day) & Gardens where there is a long lovely woodland walk for the dog, and the gardens were beautiful & well managed, we thoroughly recommend this as a visit, and also Swallow Falls no admission fee- wonderful! (not National Trust) & you'll have to Google it for exact situation.

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.
