We have 4 log cabins, which are set in beautiful woodland surroundings next to Llynclys Hill and Crickheath Hill Nature reserves. A perfect opportunity to completely unwind on a well earned break.
500ft above sea level, away from the sound of traffic, the Hill is renown for its peaceful atmosphere.
The Nature Reserves which surround the Log Cabin site are approx 100 acres of common land and a further 30 acres of woodland and old pasture meadows. The Nature reserves are managed by The Wildlife Trust and are famous for their orchids. More than 300 species of plants have been recorded here including 12 kinds of orchid. The area is full of bird song and interesting wild life, elsewhere secret sunny glades beloved by butterflies and green wood peckers, all creating the wonderful peaceful, timeless place. Step out direct from your log cabin into the woods and onto the common, miles of footpaths and tracks leading on to Offa's Dyke's footpath, with spectacular views across the Tanat Valley to The Berwyn Mountains.
