About Caban Dyfi

Your perfect escape in nature

Tucked away on the southern edge of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, Caban Dyfi is one of just five cabins along a quiet lane. From the moment you arrive via the newly resurfaced private road, you’ll feel the world slow down. Wake up to birdsong, watch the tide shift across the estuary, and enjoy the call of curlews and owls as dusk falls. The cabin is surrounded by wildlife - badgers, foxes, and woodpeckers are regular visitors.

  • Dog-friendly accommodation – up to 3 dogs welcome, no extra charge
  • Secluded setting – nestled among the trees for peace and privacy
  • Stunning estuary views – gaze across to the hills and mountains beyond
  • Digital detox – no TV, just books, games, and nature
  • Off-grid experience – unwind with minimal distractions.
  • Private mountain water supply which is regularly checked and rated safe.
  • Direct access to walks – trails from the door into the hills and estuary foreshore
  • Coastal location – just outside Aberdovey (Aberdyfi) with easy access to beaches
  • Snowdonia escape – on the southern edge of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park

Dog-friendly FAQs

How many dogs are allowed?
Up to 3 dogs are welcome at no extra cost. Caban Dyfi is a small chalet, so please consider space if you’re bringing very large dogs. Please get in touch if you want to bring more than 3 dogs and we will do our best to accommodate.

How secure is the garden?
The garden surrounding the chalet has 3ft fences, hedging and shrubs (up to 4–5ft in summer), and 4ft gates. The upper terrace behind the chalet is not fenced – please keep dogs on lead there as it backs onto farmland.

Are dogs allowed on the furniture?
We know keeping dogs off furniture and beds isn’t always easy – we won’t insist. But please wipe muddy paws and give the vac a quick go before you leave. It helps us keep cleaning and letting costs down.

Do I need to bring dog bedding?
Yes – please bring your own dog bedding.

Are there rules for dogs in the chalet park?
Yes – all dogs must be kept on lead while in the chalet park and on the farmland behind it.

Are there sheep nearby?
Yes – the chalet backs onto farmland and sheep can sometimes be seen in the trees behind.

Is Caban Dyfi suitable for reactive dogs?
It depends on your dog. The area is very peaceful – ideal for noise-sensitive dogs – but there are two dogs next door, and occasional visiting dogs at neighbouring chalets.

Are there quiet areas to walk reactive dogs nearby?
Yes, please get in touch with us and we can give you some pointers depending on what your dog needs. We have a reactive dog ourselves so we understand how hard it is to plan a holiday around a dog that struggles.
