Cabin was beautiful, hotter maintained daily. TV wasn't a smart tv that was the only let down. Cabin was spacious, well furnished and had lots of accessories like 4 slice toaster, scissors, care package with t towel, bin liner, foil etc. WIFI was fine despite the trees! Gorgeous canal walk near by. Lovely place.

We had a lovely holiday at Penllwyn lodges. We booked the Squirrels Drey lodge and the lodge was clean, spacious, and had the added bonus of the hot tub. The location of Penllwyn lodges is a tranquil setting, and we visited some beautiful locations that were all within a short drive.The kids enjoyed walking in the woods and feeding some of the animals that live in the park. The staff are really friendly and helpful, and I would recommend this park if youre looking for somewhere peaceful
