Bryn Eiddon Log Cabin Reviews

Angharad
Beautiful log cabin with amazing views. Totally chilled weekend celebrating mams birthday. Everything was top notch. Diolch yn fawr xx
Our stay at the Bryn Eiddon was so enjoyable and will leave us with wonderful memories. The property was made so welcoming by the owners with special touches that we really appreciated. To wake up every day and see the amazing views from the lodge felt such a privilege, its such a beautiful place. Was also an ideal location to take our dog for walks right from the lodge. As we stayed late OctNov we wondered if the lodge may be a bit cold, but this wasnt the case it was extremely cosy. We couldnt recommend the Bryn Eiddon enough and cant wait to visit again!
Beautiful cabin, everything you needed. Superb location and fabulous views. Hot tub was great. Would definitely visit again.
Andrew
Superb cabin in a beautiful location. Cabin was spotless when we arrived and all equipment is like new . Hot tub was lovely and hot and perfect for watching the clouds drift by being undercover was a bonus for when it rains. Only negative or positive to somewas zero phone signal on EE and Vodafone but this is beyond owners control.

This is the 2nd time weve stayed at Bryn Eiddon and probably not the last. We were blessed with the fantastic weather last year but not so lucky this year! Nevertheless, our stay was just magical once more and the weather did not stop us doing what we wanted to do as were quite outdoorsy people. However, whats truly magical about the place is its location. I was born and bred in Wales but I was never lucky enough to witness the view that you wake up to every morning at Bryn Eiddon, its truly stunning, with sheep grazing only a few feet away from you. No camera in the world can do it justice and you simply have to be there to experience it. I felt really homesick driving home to Stafford yesterday after spending a week at such a stunning lodge with even more stunning views. All of my friends are completely envious when I show them photos of this incredible place. I shall definitely be returning.
We have just had a wonderful week in Wales, going back to the cabin after a full day of activities was so peaceful and relaxing. It was SO clean and had everything you need and more. The owners were in touch with any problems. What a beautiful place with only sheep and cows for neighbours. If you want to get away from it all it is the perfect place and still just 10 minutes driving from the town.
Anthony
Lovely cabin with everything needed in a magnificent location.
Amazing place
We had a wonderful time during the Whitsun half term break at Bryn Eiddon Log Cabin. We enjoyed spending time at the beach, walking along beautiful paths, and relaxing in the hot tub while gazing at the stunning view. This was exactly what we needed and we look forward to returning soon.
Beautiful place with absolutely everything you need for a peaceful, relaxing break. Will return!
Philip

A wonderful remote log cabin. Perfect for getting away to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery and walks. Great facilities and within easy reach of lovely beaches other sightseeing if you want too.
Sharon
Our break in this beautiful lodge was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The lodge had everything you needed & more, the perfect location for a romantic or family holiday away with beautiful mountains when you wake & stunning while sat in the hot tub. Such clean accommodation. Extremely welcoming & friendly. The owners are so lovely & helpful & make your holiday a dream come true. We have had many breaks away & this is the best by far. Thankyou so much
Anthony
The cabin and facilities are exceptional, what we didn't expect was the stunningly beautiful nature of the location and area in which it is situated. This part of Wales is not well know, the property owners should promote that more.
Cabin is in a beautiful spot with fantastic views, well equipped and very comfortable, great place to just relax.
Rebecca
This was an amazing lodge, perfect for the relaxing break we needed. Our dog Luna loved looking at the sheep and them back at her, hilarious!! Would love to visit again, the scenery is amazing.
Absolutely beautiful location, the perfect break if youre looking to unwind and relax away from the everyday. We would sell our house and move in to Bryn Eiddon cabin in a heartbeat!!
The cabin was very clean and spacious. It has everything you need to make a relaxing time perfect. From sunset watching in the hot tub to a log burning stove in the evening. The owners were very helpful. I couldn't recommend this secluded little getaway enough.
The cleanliness of the property was fantastic, the cleanest place I have ever stayed at. The views were also spectacular. The hot tub which I was a bit indifferent before we went was fabulous. If the weather had been nicer and we were eating more meals outside I would have preferred chairs with a back instead of the picnic table but I do suffer from a bad back. But overall the place, views, area, beds, sheep were all amazing!!!! Would not hesitate to recommend. X
Excellent place for quiet holidays. Stunning views. Truly recommended. Hosts are kind and helpful. Log cabin is amazing, location same. Can't see single thing which I didn't like.
Christine
Beautiful property with stunning views. The Prosecco on arrival was a lovely touch. The cabin was spotless and in a great position for exploring the area. We really enjoyed the hot tub and the view from it was great. I cant really fault this place! Bethan the owner was very helpful. Lovely walks at the back of the cabin too!
You MUST stay at this cabin. A hot tub with a view to die for, a cabin perfectly clean on arrival in a part of Wales that will blow you away with how stunning it is, and owners who couldnt be more helpful. We just returned today & are already looking at booking again.. Thanks Bethan & family.. Mike, Kate, Ollie, Abbie from Cotswolds

There was mould in the bathroom and the hot tub was not functioning as it ... There was mould in the bathroom and the hot tub was not functioning as it should, probably the filter wasnt even working properly as the water was becoming very foamy and cloudy, despite having a shower and cleaning before getting in the tub Check out time could have been flexible
The cabin was a lovely place to stay with beautiful views. I think for the price and general feel of it being a luxury cabin a few extras would be very helpful and welcome additional towels for hot tub, soaps etc rather than nearly empty carex etc.
Richard
The cabin is just perfect, facilities,comfort and the views. Amazing . Loved our week.
Philip
Very good comfortable property. Light and airy. Totally secure garden for dog. Extremely large comfortable bed. Hot tub a great asset. Large decking area sun loungers would have been nice to enjoy the amazing views. Highly recommended, would stay again.
Lorraine
I really enjoyed my stay at Bryn Eiddon and found it to be a lovely cabin that was comfortable and well equipped. The location is lovely and the views around the mountains is stunning. A couple of things I would say about the cabin is that people may not get a mobile signal in the cabin. I had to go a mile down the road to get a signal. Netflix services were intermittent with buffering so watching a film could be frustrating. Bryn Eiddon stands on it's own grounds but I wouldn't describe it as secluded as it's on a road which is frequently used for bike club outings and can be quite noisy. Also advise holiday makers of any delivery services that might be available from super markets etc. Suggested improvements Provide a slip mat for the shower, a shelf in the bathroom, a coathook for the bathroom and a toilet roll holder. Provide loungers for the patio instead of a bench seat.
Fantastic lodge in stunning surroundings. The lodge is secluded from other properties. There was everything that you needed a real getaway from it all place. Mobile signal is not great but I understand that a new phone mast will be erected soon. WiFi in the property was very good. Excellent host.
Superb cottage furnished to a high standard. Very accessible and welcoming host.
Michelle
Fantastic immaculate property, amazing location. Bethen is super helpful and responds quickly to texts. The walks are great and lots of beautiful spots to visit. Highly recommended.
Bryn Eiddon is a great property which we would highly recommend. The views are amazing and the cabin is well equipped with all you need for a great holiday. The owners are really lovely ,friendly people and it was a pleasure to meet them. We hope to return soon!
Keeley
Absolutely wonderful experience. Easy to find, clean & tidy on arrival, no evidence of pets at all. We wanted for nothing as the cabin is fully equipped. Hostess dropped by to check if all was ok and say hello, lovely touch. Stunning location to disconnect and reset. Let your eyes relax onto the far reaching views and take in the local wildlife and allow your mind to wander..... Lots of walks right out the door and great to relax by the fire or in the hottub after a few hours hiking. Could easily recommend to family & friends as it was a pleasure to be there. Thank you Bethan. x
Lianne
We loved staying here. The cottage was well equipped and presented. It is completely private and secluded. We were a bit concerned that most cottages imply this but actually they're right next to another property, but not here. Such a relaxing location. We'll be back!
Carina
Bryn Eiddon is pure magic. We had the best weeks holiday here. The views are incredible, the property was the cleanest holiday rental we've ever stayed in. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and a pleasure to cook in. Bethan the owner is lovely, very friendly and helpful and left us a nice bottle of prosecco. Watching the sunset from the hot tub and then stargazing in a perfect dark sky. Seeing tiny newborn lambs curled up right on your fence line when you open the blinds in the morning. Red kites and buzzards flying so low overhead you can see their colours clearly, all perfect memories of our time here. A few things to be aware of, the internet can be a little unreliable for Netflix etc but great for browsing. We managed a WhatsApp video call with our son on my husbands Birthday but neither of us had any phone signal. We kept our dog on a long lead when in the garden, we didn't want him getting excited by the sheep and causing any distress. We would love to return one day and totally recommend this place for a romantic and perfectly secluded holiday.
