Relaxing on the new bowling green...not quite flat though...

That was a seriously hard but rewarding days work...time for a cider now!

We were made very welcome by the hosts who went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and at home. The location was absolutely stunning and ideal for accessing both the coast and Snowdonia National Park.

Staying in the yurt was great fun and very comfortable. It was really good to light a fire each night in the log burner for warmth and the fairy lights around the inside were a very nice touch. It was the perfect place to escape and relax for a few days, with the only sounds coming from the wind in the trees and the various wildlife around.

We highly recommend but don't want it too booked up because we'd like to go and stay again!

I stayed alone in Shayne and Nathan's yurt and had an amazing time. Whilst the weather and my health wasn't fantastic I didn't take many long rambling walks as I'd hoped, but snuggling in the yurt and it's beautiful surroundings was just as lovely. Nathan gave me a postcode and to warn others, if you are not coming in through the village as I didn't it may send you up a hill with a 'Cynwyd Forest' sign on the right as described in the directions, but it is not the right one! Nathan was patient and lovely with my lateness as I didn't make it at the time I had hoped! There are many walks around and a large map in the kitchen with suggestions and OS maps to borrow if you require. The yurt and kitchen/shower is spotlessly clean, however be mindful that the yurts and area is respectfully very eco friendly so plastics/wet wipes and a disregard for this (ie taking long showers) would be disrespectful to the ethos. The kitchen has good amenities but make sure you take anything you need food and drink wise as well as seasoning etc. Thank you both for your lovely hospitality and I hope to come back when I am less contagious!
