Craig Y Nos is a luxury pod set in Snowdonia National Park, just 2 miles from Betws-y-Coed in North Wales.

The pod sits on private farmland with sheep and lambs dotting the landscape (yes, you'll hear them bleating while you're soaking in the tub). Complete privacy and tranquility are guaranteed here. You're perfectly positioned for exploring Snowdonia's best bits - walking, climbing, canoeing, kayaking and fishing are all on your doorstep.

Absolutely loved it, will come back!
Emma
This place was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and super comfy, well-stocked accommodation. It's perfect if you want peace and quiet - we even got engaged here! Honestly, couldn't have asked for a better spot for a special getaway. Thanks a million!
Emma
This pod was fantastic! We loved the stunning view, it's perfectly locatedand had all the essentials. Definitely a place we'd come back to!
Alex
We enjoyed our 4-night stay here; the location was super peaceful and quite private, which was perfect for us. The cabin was well kitted out, with a BBQ, a small fridge under the sinkand an outside fridge freezer-really handy. The bathroom was small but modernand the shower was lovely. The hot tub does take a couple of hours to heat, but it's definitely worth the wait, especially under the stars at night. Lovely experience overall!
Emma
We really enjoyed our stay! The pod was spotless and had all the essentials, plus those breathtaking views. It's perfect for a peaceful escape. We took a few walks into Betws-y-Coed-sure, the uphill climb is a bit tough, but totally worth it. Can't wait to come back with our little spaniel. Highly recommend!
Jamie
We loved our stay at this lovely cabin! The views are simply stunning, with farmland stretching out and mountains in the distance-truly breathtaking. The place is well stocked, with a smart TV, WiFi, outdoor BBQand a cosy log burner for chilly nights. The shower is fantastic, with plenty of power. Getting to the cabin involves driving through a scenic farm full of horses, sheepand cows. It's a perfect spot to unwind, especially after a hike up Snowdon. We'd definitely come back!
Emma
We absolutely loved this cosy shepherd's hut nestled in stunning countryside with mountain views. Everything we needed for a peaceful retreat was provided. Definitely planning to come back sometime soon!
Emma Carter
Charming spot, would return happily
Alex
Great spot, nicely stocked and perfect for couples. We'd definitely suggest it for anyone exploring the area!
Oliver
We really enjoyed our stay at Craig Y Nos. The place is a charming little find, very well set up and private. The fenced paddock was perfect for our vizsla puppy, giving us peace of mind while he explored freely. The pod was super comfy and the views are absolutely stunning, creating a lovely atmosphere. It's a good place! Huge thanks to the hosts for making our trip so special. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting a peaceful getaway.
Alex Morgan
We had a great time staying here, loved how peaceful and private it was, yet close enough to shops and restaurants. The property is lovelyand the hot tub was definitely a highlight for us! Would recommend.
Emily
We stayed at this pod in such a gorgeous spot, honestly the view was breathtaking, especially from the hot tub at night. It's tucked away in a super peaceful, remote area, giving us loads of privacy - felt like our own little escape. Our dog loved just chilling on the deck watching the sunset. The only sounds were sheep in the fields, which was quite charming. The place was spotless and had everything we needed for a few nights away. Definitely a good place!
Alex
Really enjoyed our stay, super private and peaceful. Definitely planning to come back someday, it was just what we needed! Highly recommend.
James
Absolutely loved the view, especially from the hot tub-so relaxing!
Alex Carter
Stunning scenery, lovely place, definitely worth visiting, we loved it!
Samira
We stayed for four nights in late January 2024 and really enjoyed it. The views from the pod were absolutely stunningand there was plenty to do nearby. Once the fire was going, the pod felt super cozy. Everything we needed was thereand Ceri was really friendly and helpful whenever we had a question. The only minor downside was the fridge and microwave being outside, which wasn't always ideal in the rain, but it's a small trade-off. The bed was incredibly comfyand we'd definitely come back!
Emma
We spent three nights in January when it was freezing outside (-0°C)and honestly, it was just what we needed. The hut was super comfy and had everything we could ask for. Waking up to those stunning views was a real highlight, plus it's perfectly placed near Betws and some fantastic hikes. Love it!
James
We had a lovely stay in this charming little pod for two nights in early December. The winter scenery outside was stunning and really made the trip special. Inside, the log fire kept everything warm and cosy, so we were never cold. The location is perfect with Betws-Y-Coed just around the corner and a cracking pizza place in the town centre!
Maria
We loved the peaceful setting, surrounded by fields, making it perfect for a quiet break. The lodge had everything we needed for self-cateringand it was super cosy with a log burner and heated floors-such a treat! The bathroom was bigger than expected, with a really powerful shower. Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts too, with some lovely walks nearby. Overall, a great spot for relaxation and exploring the countryside. We'd definitely come back!
Emma Carter
We really enjoyed our stay here. The seclusion and stunning views made it specialand the cabin was spotless, comfyand had everything we needed. There were plenty of logs for a warm fire, which was lovely. The fridge and laundry are separate from the cabin, so it's nice and quiet. Perfect if you want peace and quiet, just the odd baa or moo from wildlife! Not far from local spots and eateries, especially the Royal Oak in Betsw y Coed - highly recommend!
