The location was amazing, walks in the vicinity, but also within a short drive of many places, including Aberystwyth and Devils Bridge. The cabin was awesomely cosy and had everything we needed.

A wonderful, secluded shepherd’s hut. Amazing views and stunning location (if you want to get away from it all). There’s no tv, wifi or phone signal - so depends what you’re after. Great firepit.

Secluded hideaway for two, in a woodland setting in a converted 1920's railway carriage within the Cambrian Mountains near Cardigan Bay Nestling on a hillside overlooking the Ystwyth Valley, the accommodation comprises a double bed, kitchenette, toilet and ensuite shower, with indoor and outdoor dining areas, fire pit with free firewood and on sight parking. With woodland walks from the door and panoramic views of Plynlimon & the Cambrian Mountains with Woodland all around & Streams close by. Just arrive relax on the veranda & watch the Kite’,s soaring overhead. Cycling from the Carriage & the Ystwyth Trail is 1000m away.The river Ystwyth is close by & great for wild swimming. The Night Sky is spectacular from the Veranda on a clear night as there is no light pollution . Gors Caron the Largest raised peat bog in Europe with its board walk & Bird hide is close by, as is Bwlch Nant yr Arian Mountain bike centre with down hill runs. Devils Bridge Falls is 8 KM away, within 12 km of University Town of Aberystwyth & Narrow gauge railway running to Devils Bridge.
