Location was perfect for peace and tranquility Property was clean with everything you needed The only thing I would add is the lack of a mobile hoist which is a minor problem. Dafyyd as a host was welcoming and helped us with any questions.

Little Family Getaway
The lodge is beautiful and wonderful surroundings The view is amazing. Very clean and cosy and home from home with everything you need. Hot tub went down well with all. Dafydd was very welcoming and was just at the end of the phone if we needed anything. Already booked for another weekend!

End of summer
We stayed here at the end of summer as we had a family wedding to attend. The owner was extremely welcoming and friendly and the location was excellent. It was so refreshing to get away from the bustle of everyday life. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and sitting out on the veranda listening to all the nature

Amazing trip
We had a fantastic stay at the safe haven holiday lodges. The lodge was well equipped and had everything we needed. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure that we had a wonderful stay. The accommodation was clean and tidy and the hot tub was a particularly great addition. The views were absolutely stunning and it was so peaceful. We would definitely stay again!

What a gorgeous hidden gem! Beautiful lodge in a beautiful setting. Hot tub was brilliant and the little outdoor play area with swing, connect 4 and goals was a massive hit with the kids. We will 100% be back! Excellent service from Dafydd and his wife. We loved every minute and were sad to leave!

We absolutely loved our stay in this lodge. Dafydd was an amazing host and really friendly. The only sounds we could hear outside were birds singing and the river. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to get away from it all. Lodge was well equipped, clean and comfortable

Fabulous get away place
The cabin had everything we needed and more. Well equipped kitchen including the helpful extras such as tea & coffee, oil, sauces etc. we were really lucky with the weather but if we hadn’t been the new heating system kicked in really quick and warmed the place up fast. Hot tub was such a treat and the host was really helpful without being intrusive. Altogether I would thoroughly recommend this place to anyone wanting to escape for a few days. Just wish we could have stayed longer

Simply fabulous
Dafydd was very friendly and extremely helpful, the lodge was amazing and exceeded expectations. Lovely and peaceful to sit in the morning with a cuppa watching the birds having their brekkie opposite the lodge. Fab evenings spent in the hot tub. Our only complaint is that the weekend went far too quickly lol

A lovely blissful stay
We stayed for 5 nights and wish it was for longer! A lovely, quiet place for us. It was the perfect time away we were looking for. Dafydd is a great host. Very friendly and helpful. We felt completely safe where we were and could let the kids play outside alone. The hot tub an excellent bonus! Lots of lovely walks to go on and a train station nearby to go further out if no transport like us. We certainly recommend this place for a nice relaxing getaway. Booking again for next year!

Weekend break
Booked this as a weekend break for myself and my daughter and my friend and her daughter, it was perfect, quite, not overlooked and private hot tub. Cabin was better than we seen online, obviously upgraded a few things, it was clean, tidy and had everything we needed. Highly recommend 👌
