Guests say
Cae Ocyn is a secluded, spacious cottage embraced by nature, offering a peaceful retreat for guests seeking tranquility and a digital detox. The property's charm lies in its wildlife-rich surroundings, extensive library, and opportunities for family activities. Guests appreciate the clean, practical accommodation and the chance to reconnect with nature and each other in a homely environment.
The property is consistently described as clean, with good quality bedding and well-maintained spaces. One mention of found guest underwear slightly affects the score.
The location is highly praised for its tranquility, wildlife, and seclusion, offering a perfect escape from the modern world. The challenging access track is noted but does not detract significantly from the location's appeal.
The property is generally found to be cosy and spacious. However, some guests noted small beds with soft mattresses and a wobbly bed, indicating room for improvement in comfort.
Facilities like games, a piano, and a well-equipped kitchen are appreciated, but the lack of Wi-Fi, dated interior, and some maintenance issues such as slippery steps and window frames needing repair are mentioned.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts, so it is not possible to assess this category.

Lovely house with lots of space and very secluded, good few games inside like table tennis, darts and board games which are worn but definitely still playable. Mostly had everything we needed besides bathroom esentials which is mentioned but had more stuff than we were expecting. Track down is very rough but manageable and steps inside can be very slippy so beware but overall very nice place, would recommend!

A second trip to Cae Ocyn for us, what a magical place! I love how remote and quiet it is, the lack of wifi, the library of books, the space in the house and the garden. Thanks again for a lovely stay!
