Description:
The recent introduction of electricity to this bunkhouse has done nothing to detract from the true sense of wilderness and isolation on offer here. Red kites, buzzards and ravens fly above this simply furnished property, seven miles from the nearest phone box and a mile from the nearest house. A mile of unsurfaced road leads to YHA Tyncornel, popular with walkers, adventurous cyclists, bird watchers and those looking for total peace and solitude. The nearest pubs and shops are at Llanddewi-Brefi, seven miles and Tregaron 10 miles away.
