Description

Panoramic views over the Dyfi Valley towards the Snowdonia mountains, that can be enjoyed from the comfort of your bed, window seat or the elevated patio in front of a fire pit. Slate Cabin is one of eight award winning cabins which were the focus of the Channel 4 / Netflix documentary 'Cabins in the Wild'.

The perfect retreat to experience the silence and solitude of the Welsh landscape, Slate Cabin is designed to reinvigorate those who stay there. Inspired by the Welsh slate industry, the cabin fits effortlessly into its surroundings and embodies simplicity and style. Clever and compact design, with a pull-up table that’s perfect for two and a sumptuous king bed for rest and relaxation that elevates at the touch of a button.

Natural light bathes the space, and a pot-bellied, woodburning stove brings warmth and cosiness. At one end of the cabin, a long window in front of a seat and desk frames a panoramic view of the Welsh landscape. It’s the perfect spot to sit with a cup of tea and a book.

With Glyndwr's Way (one of only 3 National Trails in Wales) on your doorstep, it's also worth exploring your beautiful surroundings. The river Dyfi begins its journey on Aran Fawddwy (9 miles north), the highest peak in Wales and the British Isles south of Snowdon, flows through UNESCO Dyfi Biosphere, past Machynlleth (7 miles), the Ancient Capital of Wales and enters the sea at Aberdyfi (18 miles south-west). From mountain to coast, Slate Cabin offers plenty of variety and attractions. It is also within 1 mile of a village pub, shop and cafe in Cemaes.

Reviews

Enjoyed an incredible break, the location is perfect with so many places nearby. Quickly became our favourite stay in Wales and can't wait to come back.

Mrs P,

Absolutely stunning views, the window is like a picture. Beautiful little cabin & very welcoming hosts. Couldn’t have asked for more. Perfect place to spend our anniversary

Mrs K,

Amazing would definitely recommend. Hosts were so friendly and the location was amazing. Cottage was so clean and had everything needed.

Miss S,

Beautiful views, such an amazing and cosy cabin. Came for a romantic break for our second wedding anniversary. Welcome box is a sweet added extra.

Mr Jonny H,

What a beautiful surprise to walk into, our first view of a place so beautifully lit in the middle of amazing countryside. As it was quite dark when we arrived the views upon walking up were just spectacular. Llion was so helpful during our stay and Manon, "thank you" for the surprise with the delicious cake. Thank you, we had an excellent stay

Mr Ramon L,

The hosts have been truthfully amazing and the breath-taking view is a nice change of pace from the typical city life. The snacks provided, especially the toffee waffles, tasted amazing and being fortunate enough to keep for myself, I was lucky enough to enjoy both packets. unfortunately, I had to cut the stay short, but none the less, I still enjoyed it and hope to return soon.

Mr Bilal H,

Arrived to a beautiful cosy cabin with everything we could want or need, and a lovely welcome hamper. We took a walk into the local village and had a delicious breakfast at the café. The views from the cabin are stunning, especially when we had snow. Llion and Manon were wonderful hosts and were very attentive during our stay. We cant wait to come back!!

Mr Dwain W,
