We wanted something off grid and relaxing. We always look for something unique and Caban Tarren certainly did not disappoint! The cabin is an amazing showcase of Tanya’s skill - but also the love and passion that went into creating somewhere amazing is obvious. The weather was challenging when we stayed and once the log burner was lit, it was warm and cosy. The views are stunning, no matter the conditions and we were lucky to have both dramatic mist and fog and bright sunshine. The kitchen is basic, don’t expect all mod cons! We are used to camping, so for us it was perfect and although we didn’t use the outdoor kitchen, it’s a fantastic addition. We did a Toolboxtan workshop while we were there and it was quite possibly one of the best things we’ve ever done. Quality time spent as a couple was priceless. It was fun, exciting, empowering and sometimes emotional - don’t hesitate - book that workshop! 10/10 perfect stay. We will be back! ...

Tan is amazing, we had everything we needed and more. Great communication throughout. The cabin is completely private but Tan is around for any questions or recommendations. The cabin is set within a community that is warm and welcoming and excited to have you experiencing where they live. On the door step of incredible walks, boat hire, cafes and pubs with great food, it’s magic. We came for our wedding anniversary and have already booked in again for next year, we’ve fallen in love....

Caban Tarren is a spectacular home away from home, with hosts Tanya and Lucy being nothing short of perfect. We had planned a very special weekend indeed, and were treated to a magical and warm stay. The location is outstanding, with the view being spectacular by both morning and evening. I would highly recommend this very unique place to anybody....

A fabulous stay. Beautiful setting and a unique, work of art, property. The owners are very welcoming and considerate.

Probably the best place we've ever stayed in the UK. Stunningly beautiful countryside, peaceful, secluded - perfect. We could properly relax. The cabin is wonderfully put together, every possible thing has been thought of and handmade with care. It's so much more personal and unique than other places to stay. We loved the cold plunge barrel (followed by a lovely hot shower with views) and cooked on the fire pit each night. The fridge is compact, but big enough for everything we needed. The bed is really comfortable, and the night skies are wonderful - clouds permitting! We decided last-minute to do a woodworking workshop and had an amazing time with Tanya, learning new skills and enjoying chatting with her. We went for a great walk up the escarpment with amazing views, will have to come back and do the many other walks in the area. ...
