Dan y Faen Reviews

Sam
We loved the spacious place, it had all we needed for a comfy stay. The surrounding nature was stunning, with loads of footpaths right outside to explore. The hot tub was a real highlight - we spent ages in there, spotting Red Kites, Woodpeckers, Owlsand Bats. Edryd and Jane were super friendly and gave us some handy tips. Honestly, we’d come back in a heartbeat. Definitely recommend!
