About this property

SNOWDONIA LOG CABIN RETREAT 4 BERTH FAMILY/PET FRIENDLY. STUNNING MOUNTAIN VIEWS

Enjoy a relaxing break in this cosy, Norwegian style log cabin situated on a holiday village within the Snowdonia National Park overlooking the Rhinog mountain range. It is the perfect place to get away from it all and relax.

The cabin is 4 berth and is fully furnished with 2 bedrooms (one double bed and bunk beds). A travel cot will not fit in the bedrooms but can be placed in the living room area and can be provided on request. There is an open plan lounge/kitchen, which has microwave, electric cooker, fridge, crockery, pots, pans and cooking utensils, colour TV, DVD and Sky Freeview. The bathroom has a wash basin, toilet, shower and heated towel rail. There is a large secure decking area outside with table, chairs and BBQ, which makes it ideal for people with dogs. There is parking for 2 cars. Pillows and quilts are provided but you will need to bring your own bed linen, towels and tea towels with you.

Well behaved pets are welcome absolutely free. Electricity is included in the price. On the holiday village is a cafe/bistro, convenience store, launderette and children's outdoor play area.

Cadair Idris mountain is to the south and Snowdon is to the North. The surrounding area offers something for everyone, whether it's high adventure, enjoying the tranquillity of the countryside or some simple family fun. The cabin is a great place to explore what the area has to offer and after a fun filled day enjoy al fresco dining on the large decking area and watch the sun go down over the Rhinog mountains.

we enjoyed our vacation here

We and our dog felt very comfortable in the accommodation. The location of the holiday village is stunningly beautiful. From here, we were able to enjoy some wonderful activities, like hiking, biking or canyoning (by car) . There's also a bus stop nearby, so there are bus connections as well. We were satisfied with the amenities in the holiday home. There was plenty of space for three people. We especially liked the enclosed patio.

Great Cosy Cabin

It was a comfortable little space that warmed up quickly to become a cosy base for us over a long weekend of walking in Eryri. Our dog also settled in very quickly there, which doesn't always happen on trips like this, so that was a nice bonus.

Log cabin retreat

We had a great time and luckily we had great weather. The cabin is set in lovely surroundings with wonderful views and a huge variety of birds visiting the site. The cabin has all you need to enjoy your time visiting this beautiful part of Wales with many places to enjoy within a short drive away. We had a great time.

Beautiful location

Very well equipped cabin, probably the best position in the resort. Only addition I would have liked the option of purchasing a welcome tray as quite remote if you arrive late and tired, no 24 hour supermarket down the road, but once you are organised the cabin has everything you need for cooking

Shirt but sweet

We had a lovely time here in Snowdonia packed with things to do. Our time in the lodge was short but sweet and would definitely come back. The site and grounds are well kept and the dog walking area was lovely too.

The accommodation was excellent, the only hitch was the mattress on the double bed could do with being replaced. The dvd player doesn't work. Everything else was perfect.

New years break

Booking was straight forward and the owner was great with the communication how to get there etc. The cabin was clean and tidy apart from a few dirty dishes in the cupboard which are still there as they wasn’t my dishes to wash. The heat inside the cabin was a little too much to bear but there was notices saying do not turn off the storage heaters in the winter time so open windows it was but it rained constantly so this made it difficult to have the winds open. The double bed has an extremely hard mattress which is quite uncomfortable. There was no where to say where you put the rubbish so we had to leave two bags of rubbish one recycling and one rubbish. On the whole a cosy little cabin. But I wouldn’t stay there again.

Awesome location overlooking the mountains. Arrival was very straight forward. Did message the owner a couple of times to ask questions and she responded straight away. The shower did break down so again we told the owner and a new one was fitted the next day so no problem at all. Very enjoyable stay, thank you.

A weekend away to relax and see the area

This log cabin is in an ideal place to see Trawsfynydd and surrounding area only 20 minutes to Porthmadog and Portmerion by car. It is also a good place for walking too!We sat outside on the veranda on our first, sunny, evening and the view of the mountains were visible with the clouds as the sun was moving from left to right. We were lucky to have the birds become comfortable enough to come within a metre, particularly the sparrows. From inside we saw magpies, doves, thrushes and jackdaws too.The accommodation is not spacious but there are two settees and a lounge chair and a dining table with 4 chairs. The kitchen is stocked with cutlery, plates, bowls, cups, glasses, etc.and a good-sized refrigerator to enable to cook food.

About the host

Hosted by Liz Downs

Host profile image
I moved to North Wales in 2006 to enjoy rural living and the beautiful surroundings Snowdonia has to offer. I live 35 minutes away from the cabin so if there are any problems during your stay I will usually be on hand to sort it out immediately.

Why they chose this property

This is one of two cabins we own on this site. We have lovingly renovated this cabin, replacing the roof and the outside wooden cladding to ensure it is well insulated and nice and cosy. We have tamed the wild garden and chopped down trees that had grown over 30 foot high and were dangerously close to the log cabin, to ensure an uninterrupted view of the stunning Rhinog mountains. The cabin is home from home and hopefully has everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

What makes this property unique

From the log cabin you can cycle directly to Coed y Brenin Forest just 2 miles away where there are a large number of all weather mountain bike tracks offering trails for mountain bikers of all abilities, and plenty of walking trails.
