The Pod was wonderful and a perfect place to enjoy the scenery, walks and nature of the area. It was spotlessly clean, incredibly well thought out, everything you could possibly need and an all round fabulous place to stay. We will definitely visit again.

A brilliant location and a Pos that has everything that you could need. A good old fashioned local pub just over the footbridge if you want to eat out or the facilities to make your own meals.

Stayed two days at this fabulous property. Relaxing in hot tub after long walks was a perfect way to unwind. I grew up on a mountain farm but the panoramic views here are incredible. Welcome hamper was a nice touch. Community cafe and village pub short walk - both very good. Cant wait to revisit.

Absolutely lovely place! My partner and I booked it for a holiday get away and we werent disappointed. Close enough to drive to Snowdon, far away enough to enjoy the mountain views! The little town is superb, honestly couldnt recommend this place enough. Lets not get started on the Hot Tub I wish I could have brought it home with me!

My partner and I had a fantastic 5 night stay at Caban Clyd in July 2023. The views were beautiful in every direction and there are a wide range of walks available right on the doorstep. The location is quiet and private but with local amenities just a 5 minute walk away. There is a lovely pub in the village called Y Llew Coch (The Red Lion) which Read morewe went to often for food - delicious, hearty meals (especially the Sunday roast!) and very friendly staff and locals. The pod itself is extremely cosy and very well equipped, and the hot tub was lovely after a long day of walking. Though we didn't meet Elen herself, we met her friendly husband who worked on the farm next door and we knew we could contact Elen for anything we might need. For those who enjoy a good climb but do not want the crowds of Snowden, we recommend Aran Fawdwwy (10min drive from Caban Clyd) - it is a difficult hike but stunningly beautiful and very quiet. We only saw 3 other hikers all day! All in all, we had a really lovely visit at Caban Clyd and would love to return in the future. Thanks Elen for having us :) Hide

High score because of the incredible location and the high standard to which Cabin Clyd has been finished and is maintained. The host was thoughtful and available but not intrusive. We would be hard pushed to find a holiday better for our needs.
