  Lovely little house, the weather helped as we were able to sit with the doors open most of the time and take in the amazing views!

  Great shower which was useful after a hard days walking. Well equipped kitchen (no washing machine- would have been useful). Ideally located for walking- don’t even need to take the car, many paths nearby. Heating seemed good although didn’t need it. Easy to find. Outdoor seating great, lovely views of sheep and hills. Only negatives- there is property right next door- this is hidden in the photos. Not sure what the ‘games room’ was, I would have called it the living room. Not very clean at all- having stayed somewhere else a few weeks prior we were given a covid checklist there. Here there was dust on the skirting, on light switches- suggesting they were not cleaned, shower had hair in it, floors had been cleaned with a dirty mop found outside, food splashes on cupboards. Had to reclean which only took us an hour. Checkout was 1 hour early, checkin 1 hour later- not sure why with this level of cleaning. For the price this was unexpected- charge was 2x our of season price. We would stay again because we don’t mind cleaning and apart from that it was a handy location.

  My partner and I had a fantastic 5 night stay at Caban Clyd in July 2023. The views were beautiful in every direction and there are a wide range of walks available right on the doorstep. The location is quiet and private but with local amenities just a 5 minute walk away. There is a lovely pub in the village called Y Llew Coch (The Red Lion) which we went to often for food - delicious, hearty meals (especially the Sunday roast!) and very friendly staff and locals. The pod itself is extremely cosy and very well equipped, and the hot tub was lovely after a long day of walking. Though we didn't meet Elen herself, we met her friendly husband who worked on the farm next door and we knew we could contact Elen for anything we might need. For those who enjoy a good climb but do not want the crowds of Snowden, we recommend Aran Fawdwwy (10min drive from Caban Clyd) - it is a difficult hike but stunningly beautiful and very quiet. We only saw 3 other hikers all day! All in all, we had a really lovely visit at Caban Clyd and would love to return in the future. Thanks Elen for having us :)

  Stunning location and very peaceful.

  Cottage perfect for 2 people. Loved the bonus of the hottub, worth spending the £50 on. We had everything we needed inside but there were a couple of points worth noting. The inside was overrun with spiders. They were in every corner of every room...would have been better if they had been removed before our arrival! The DVD player was described as Blueray, however it refused to play our blueray disc at all. The mattress seriously needs replacing. It has collapsed underneath and this is clearly visible. We both had a bad back by day 3 of our stay. It would be great if there was a switch to turn off the outside lights. They came on every night and were a magnet for all flying insects which meant we couldn't leave the doors or windows open at night. It was 28 degrees in the bedroom one evening...if the lights can't be turned off then maybe supply a couple of fans. A clothes airer would havd also been welcome for hanging up wet towels and swimwear from the hottub.

  The property was lovely.

  Perfect for two. The position is enviable with quietness and views. The property is well equipped and is a home from home. There were just a couple of fine details that would make stay perfect; there is no where in the bathroom for the toiletries, and no shelf in the shower. The level of detail in the information booklet in the property is limited. No information on Where is the nearest hospital, doctor dentist in case of emergency. Where is the nearest large supermarket, are there restaurants local. What local attractions are about. Not everyone is in Wales to walk. With the lack of WiFi and 4G is hit and miss or not everyone has the ability, this info is vital. The only big disappointment is when asking for help with the heating, we didn’t get it, we also don’t understand the logic that you don’t provide towels but do supply bed linen. What’s the difference.

  Really enjoyed our staycation and would definitely use Sykes again.

  From our point of view, because we were away for a total of 10 days, a washing machine in the Bothi might have been more useful than a dishwasher (although we made full use of that appliance!). The owner did, kindly, offer to let us use her washing machine but we didn't want to bother her. There is an airer and an iron so you could hand wash (I bought some powder with good intentions)! The Bothi made a great base for touring the area and was lovely to come back to in the evening. Being walking distance from a good pub was an added bonus and we would have done that more than once had we not pre-purchased so many groceries to last the week! Also enjoyed our evening meal at Cyfnod Cafe and Bistro (owner and staff working so hard from dawn 'til dusk but still made time for a chat)!
