What our past guests are saying.

"We had a lovely time at Caner Bach Lodge."

It was very clean & comfy, perfect for a relaxing week away. Beautiful views & so peaceful except for the odd sheep, cockerel & cuckoo! Lovely extras such as welcome pack of milk, bread & eggs. Carys & Kerry were very helpful & friendly & we were very touched by their kindness in letting us park closer to lodge due to my mobility. Having their 3 dogs greet us every day was an added bonus! Thank you Trudy
