Very pleased had a great time
Paul
Outstanding, stunning, piece with spectacular views and beautiful accommodation, very well equipped with literally everything you want and need for a perfect vacation in the middle of nowhere. Amazing place to propose and we are now engaged. Thank you so much xxx
Harriet
Lovely pod. We had a great time and completely adored the view! Perfectly situated, and fully stocked with everything you need! Highly Recommend!!!
Gary
Had a lovely stay for 4 nights, really quiet location and well equipped. BBQ, small fridge under the sink, fridge freezer outside and cooking facilities inside. Small bathroom obviously due to the size of the cabin but modern and shower was really nice. Hot tub takes roughly 1.5-2hrs to heat but well worth it. Nice both in the day or night. We wereRead more lucky enough to have a few clear night under the star's. Hide
Elizabeth
We had a lovely relaxing holiday - the pod was extremely clean, had everything you could wish for and the view is amazing! Would highly recommend and cant wait to return with our little spaniel. We walked into Betws-y- Coed a few times (the walk back is all uphill but doable if youre fairly fit) which has shops, pubs, restaurants and good walks.
Luke
Beautiful cabin, overlooking farmland and mountains in the distance, breathtaking views! Cabin is well equipped with a smart TV and WiFi, outdoor bbq and indoor gas oven & hob, even a cosy log burner for the colder winter months. Large shower cubicle with a powerful shower! To get to the cabin, you drive through a beautiful farm surrounded by horseRead mores, sheep and cows. This is a great place to stay, and an even more amazing place to relax, especially after conquering Snowden! Hide
Maria
A tranquil delightful shepherd's hut set in the most beautiful country side with views of the mountains. All the amenities supplied for a restful stay. Loved it, and will be returning.
Mary-Lou
Lovely location enjoyed our stay
Chris
Wonderful location. Very well equipped . Perfect for a couples get away would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.
Daniel
We had the most amazing time. Craig Y Nos is a wonderful little gem of a spot. It is well equipped, private and, the fenced around paddock it is within gave us extra rest and assurance that our vizsla puppy could also enjoy a special holiday, sniffing around without being endangered or disturbing the surrounding farm life. The pod is luxurious and Read morecomfortable. The views and the ambience are breathtaking. Thank you very much for having us. Hide
Taylor
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, it was in a lovely location very quiet and secluded which is what we liked but within 10 minutes of amenities. Really nice property and the hot tub made it better!
Charlotte
The pod was situated at an absolutely beautiful location. The view was stunning, especially from the hot tub at night. It was in a really remote and quiet area and had lots of privacy. You are not seen by anyone else which was ideal and felt like our own retreat. The dog also loved just sitting on the decking watching the sun go down! The only noisRead moree you hear is the sheep in the field which was lovely. The property itself was exceptionally clean and had everything you needed for a few nights! Hide
Sam
It was lovely, I would definatly recommend staying there, it was so private and relaxing, hopefully we will return in the future.
PAUL
Stunning, stunning view (even better from the hot tub) and very cosy
Ian
An amazing view in a beautiful and unique property. Highly recommended.
Ella
Stayed for 4 nights late January 2024. We really enjoyed our stay. Views from the pod were stunning and lots to do around the area. Pod was really cozy once the fire got going. All equipment you need was there, and Ceri was really friendly and helpful if we had any issues. Only minor thing Id say, is fridge and microwave were outdoors which wasnt aRead morelways ideal in the rain, but a small compromise to make! Bed was SO comfy, would definitely stay again! Hide
Megan
We stayed for three nights in January (outside temp 0) and it was the perfect break, the hut was extremely cozy and well equipped. The views in the morning were incredible and the location is excellent, just outside of Betws and right near some amazing hikes.
Andrew
Truly magical place to stay. We stayed in the pod for 2 nights / 3 days in early Dec '23. The winter scene view is unrivalled. With the cosy warmth of the log fire inside too, at no point was the stay uncomfortable. Location is more than apt with Betws-Y-Coed on the doorstep, and a fantastic Pizza place in the centre!
Laura
The most unbelievable secluded weekend away! We brought our border collie and our stay was perfect. The enclosed site meant the dog could run around without us needing to worry. Despite freezing temperatures the hot tub was fantastic! The lodge had everything we needed! Thankyou so much for a wonderful stay!
Nikki
We had a wonderful weekend, what a perfect spot to get away from it all!
Helen
The accommodation is set in a lovely location surrounded by farmland, which means that you have really quiet environment to relax in. It has all the necessary equipment for a self catering facility. It was a really warm and comfortable lodge with a log burner and heated floor. The bathroom was larger than expected with a really large, powerful showRead moreer. I would thoroughly recommend this for those who love the outdoor as there are some great walks in the near vicinity. Hide
Philippa
We had an awesome stay. The remoteness and views were outstanding, the cabin was spotless, well equipped and comfortable. Plenty of logs available for a cozy fire. The fridge and laundry room are separate to the cabin. If you are looking for complete peace and quiet (except for occasional baa, moo, or other wildlife!!) then this is it. Not too far Read morefrom anywhere you may wish to visit in the area, with good selection of places to eat. We recommend the Royal Oak Hotel in Betsw y Coed. Hide
Dave
We took are cane corso dog with us ( very large dog) and he loved it plenty of ground room outside for him which is enclosed free to roam, the lodge is small but excellent would definitely recommend and hopefully go back again
Anthony
Great views, great weather, a little off track but if you want the view a small inconvenience. Very well equipped with everything we needed. This pod is the reason we have packed away our canvas tent and now just do posh camping.
Kalvin
Such a amazing place. Had such a good time. Was so quiet and peaceful. They was very helpful and if we needed anything they always answered the phone
Neil
We really enjoyed our stay and would like to come back sometime. We love the area and the accommodation was superb
Joanne
Peaceful, beautiful location - pod had everything you needed and super comfy bed.
Jeff
Lovely place to stay! The dog loved it here!
Mandy
Absolutely incredible stay the pod was just the cutest and the location & views were really something else! Hot tub was an added bonus and the wood burner was perfect for the time of year of our stay and made the pod so cosy. We cant wait to return in the summer. Totally secluded location but only a short drive from Betws-Y-Coed with so many beauti ful walks/treks/hikes along the river, waterfalls, lakes and forests. Lots of lovely little cafes, pubs, shops to wander round all dog friendly
Jack
Fantastic weekend here from start to finish. The cottage was incredibly clean, had everything you could possibly need and the scenery was stunning.
Gill

Nicky
Absolutely amazing place ideal for a couple getaway everything u need there and more recommend to anyone
Karen
We had an amazing stay. The pod was so warm and cozy even in the wind and rain. We loved the stars at night from the hot tub, which was perfect even in the cold weather. Theres so much to see and do. We can recommend canyoning with George and the team at the National White Water Centre. We also enjoyed Velicity at Zip World and a trip underground w ith Go Below. On our last night we had the most amazing meal at Chandlers Brasserie in Trefriw. All in all a fantastic holiday! Thank you.
Julie
Lovely accommodation in a beautiful spot. Wood fired bath on the deck was bliss on the October chillier days and nights with wood supplied thank you. Good secure garden for the pooch. Services and utilities 10/10 at the pod. Everything you need. Good location for exploration, lots of walks along farm lanes and across fields. Would definately visit again. Thank you.
Katie
Lovely little lodge, cosy and warm and amazing view :)
Jake
The property was lovely, situated in beautiful farm land in the hills. The lodge has everything you need, teabags and cleaner and sponges. As well as all the towels you need, bath, hand and tea towels. The hot tub is lovely, fire it up and it takes a couple of hours to heat up enough to be warm enough. The whole property was perfect for the couple of nights we stayed there. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Lucy
Lovely place to stay for a few days, views great and the hot tub/bath is a great way to end the day.
Gordon
Was perfect for the 2 of us and our small dog!
Clare
An incredible stay in a beautiful place. The views and sunsets were just stunning. Felt really secluded at the pod which is what we wanted but so many walks, attractions, restaurants and things to do within a very short drive. Perfect location. We enjoyed site seeing, walking and wild swimming in the mornings in nearby villages. Then lounging on th e deck in the sun at the pod on the afternoons with hot tub and sunsets on an eve. Would return in a heartbeat.
Ceri
Amazing stay for our mini moon perfect property, location and weather. Looking forward to another trip.
