“The cabin Cilfa was amazing. All the information was given to me before my stay, directions, places to visit and what I needed to bring. On arrival it was self check in which I also loved. You just turned up with the key in the door and could start your open country side space straight away. The open space was mind blowing but the Cosby hit didn’t make you feel isolated specially as I was on my own.”
“Lovely quiet place to stay with lovely views.”
“Wouldn’t pick any other places for that holiday, just the perfect place to stay. All the scenery, the beauty of the cabin, got everything needed, couldn’t be better really. Can’t say enough good things about the host Dafydd as well! who is super helpful throughout the stay. 100/10 place.”
“This was our second time at Caban Cilfa and we love it there. We booked for the easter bank holiday weekend and had three great days taking dips in the pond and going on walks. The Caban is a good size for 2 for a few nights and there are enough utilities to make tea and simple meals.”
“We had an amazing time at Caban Cilfa, such a cute little space that had everything we needed for a quick weekend getaway. Dafydd was a fantastic host who gave us so much information about the local area, we went on a couple of beautiful isolated walks and followed a suggested drive visiting great local landmarks - such a gorgeous part of the country!”
