Shayne met us on arrival and we talked and met throughout the weekend. We couldn’t have asked for a warmer, friendlier host. Shayne also gave some good advice on the local walks, as well as amenities, which were very useful and saved us some time on a quick weekend visit. The yurt was as per the photos, and had lovely views into the hills. The log burner meant we could stay warm even though we had a little snow. Definitely keep plenty of kindling and fire lighters so it’s easy to start again if it burns out during the night. Nice space for an outdoor fire pit too. It all added to a nice ‘outdoorsy’ weekend away. The kitchen area was very well equipped and you could easily prepare and cook a good meal in there if you wish. Shared bathroom and shower facilities were available, which were clean and warm. The local Indian restaurant food was very nice and worth a visit if eating out. The area is very pretty and also remote, which was ideal for a get-away break. Thanks for your hospitality.

If you want somewhere peaceful, beautiful and cosy this is it. We loved staying in the yurt, and getting back to basics cooking on the fire. There’s everything you need here and a fab place to just relax and chill out. Local towns with pubs and restaurants aren’t far and there’s great access to the A5 if you’re looking to visit Snowdonia National Park.

We had a lovely welcome from Nathan and the Yurt was wonderful , positioned with a view of the forest and down the valley
We had everything we could need for a perfect holiday , the wood burner made the Yurt wonderfully cosy , the hot shower with an amazing view , clear skies and beautiful sunsets .
The location is spectacular , feeling far away from day to day life
We would absolutely recommend this gorgeous place to anyone
