Spectacular views. Well equipped kitchen! Lovely and cosy feel to the house. Perfect outdoor space for drinks and dinner. Loved the shower and perfect little bathroom.

We absolutely loved this cabin! It was comfortable, well-equipped, and had the most amazing views. The setting was so peaceful and perfect for a relaxing break. The host was fantastic, providing all the information we needed in advance. It was a little tricky to find at first, but the directions provided made perfect sense once we were nearby. The location is brilliant, with lots to see and do locally, beautiful beaches, waterfalls and castle ruins. There’s also a great train service running along the coast. We enjoyed visiting Aberystwyth and Barmouth, and Aberdyfi is just a short drive away. We loved both the cabin and the location, and would definitely return! ♡

We recently stayed at Kestrel Cabin near Pennal and had a fantastic time. The cabin is tucked away in the hills with breathtaking views—honestly, the photos don’t do it justice. It’s beautifully presented, spotlessly clean, and very well equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Tracy & David were great hosts, extremely communicative, they ensured that we had everything that we needed during our stay. There were 4 adults and 2 dogs in our group, and the space was more than comfortable for all of us. While the garden isn’t secure, the lane leading up to the cabin is very quiet, which worked well for our well-behaved dogs. One thing to note: we didn’t feel entirely comfortable walking straight from the cabin due to the narrow road and limited passing areas, but there are plenty of stunning walks just a short drive away. All in all, a peaceful and cosy base to explore the area—we wouldn’t hesitate to return and have already recommended it to friends!

Nothing.

Beautifully put together, thoughtfully equipped with everything you could need, gorgeous views. Surrounding area was breathtakingly beautiful, we would love to come back.

Lovely cabin with the most amazing view.

The only negative was that I found the seating very uncomfortable. I have chronic illnesses, and I am probably more sensitive than most to discomfort.

I loved the location, we didn't see or hear a soul the whole time we were there. The views out towards the river were amazing. It's such a beautiful area, and so much to do and see, without it being overrun with tourists. Best chippie ever in Aberdyfi!

Less than one toilet roll on arrival lol Our own fault but we managed to use the wrong entry road the first day. No bird feeder but we bought one and it was the best £4 I've ever spent!

Everything we needed was there including things we didn't know we needed! The bottle of bubbles was a lovely touch and the setting and scenery were amazing! Contact with the hosts was easy and we found out way about no problem. The guest book was really useful too 😁

A lot of dog hair on the floors and in the washing machine. Glass bottles on the garden bench on arrival. Garden swing broken

Beautiful cabin with amazing views. Very comfortable 3 night stay with my family. Host was great with directions as it could be tricky without.

The driveway and parking are quite difficult especially if you have a big car. There isn't much space for a cot (we had our toddler with us). No bath (not completely necessary but handy if you have a baby/toddler).

The location is great, very quiet but close to several different towns including Aberdyfi which has a large beach and some shops and pubs. The beds are comfy, the cabin is cosy, the outside areas are really nice with great views. The instructions for how to get there and arrival were very thorough. It rained almost the whole time we stayed but the views from inside are nice too.

Honestly, nothing!

The cabin had everything we needed and more. The setting is idilic and there are walks you can do right from the property. It was also great just sitting and looking out at the view and the wildlife. Our stay surpassed our expectations!

Stayed in May 2025

The views were exceptional along with incredible birdsong and sightings. The cabin was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Loved the decor and paintings around the cabin. We mostly spent time outside enjoying the outdoors and views. Loved it.

A lovely cosy relaxing space. There was everything that you would need to take so time out to relax and reflect.

It was all good.

We loved the location: quiet but within easy reach of so many places. The cabin is lovely, the beds very comfortable and we had all we needed for a few days away. We spent time relaxing, enjoying the views and listening to the late April birdsong. Other days we visited Barmouth, Cader Idris and Machynlleth. We can recommend the beautiful 20 minute walk to Pennal to enjoy a Sunday Lunch or evening meal at The Riverside - a Community-run pub.

It’s a bit cramped for space and the driveway is quite narrow!

Location is great!

I don’t know where to start. Beautiful view from the cabin. It’s great to have 3 different seating areas outside. The cabin is very well equipped and very nicely decorated and cleaned. The direction for the cabin and how to check in was very clear. We would return again.

Nothing! Would not hesitate to rebook.

Everything about the cabin exceeded our expectations! The beds were so comfortable, the kitchen was fully equipped, there are 3 terraces with seating to choose from (one being off the master bedroom). The location was amazing; only a ten minute drive to a lovely town called Machynlleth, and a scenic 15 minute drive to Aberdyfi beach. We visited with our toddler and she loved seeing all of the wildlife around the cabin!

Slight issue with locking the doors, as the key got stuck in the door, but I’m sure that was a one off rather than a consistent issue and David was quick to reassure it wouldn’t be a problem

The property was exactly what me and my wife were after. A secluded cabin in the Welsh countryside. It has 3 bedrooms and all the amenities you’d want for a short stay, or even longer.
