"Really sweet cottage."
The owners were available to help in any way, not that we needed anything, everything was there for us. Lots of places to visit in the locality. Top of the list for us was the Royal Mint tour.
-
"A fantastic property in an idyllic location."
The perfect size for a couples trip away! Hosts were super friendly and helpful. A great place to stay if you want to explore lots of places around south wales and not drive out further than an hour. All round 10/10 stay and would definitely recommend.

"Very comfortable little cottage."
Warm and inviting. Lots of places to walk with our little dog straight from the cottage. Owners very friendly and helpful. Local pub at the bottom of the hill was also very friendly and served tasty and excellent value meals.

"Lovely stone cottage in peaceful rural spot with beautiful views, yet a short distance from Bridgend and the M4."
Beautifully decorated, it was cosy, comfortable and warm, well supplied with everything you could need. Owners were friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home. Highly recommend.

"We were hugely impressed with Kerry’s and Carys’ drop of a hat, very accommodating response: the cottage we stayed in had a broken boiler, so within two hours we were rehoused to Caner Bach Lodge and Carys even picked us up from local petrol station to ensure we find the way (which was not a problem in the end)."
For both nothing was too much trouble and whilst the cottage was compact, it had all we needed (bar a cafetière for the coffee snobs

"We recently had the pleasure of staying at Caner Bach Lodge while I was working in the nearby area."
I was immediately impressed by the friendliness and warmth of the owners, Carys and Kerry. They made us feel welcome from the moment I arrived, and even provided essentials such as bread, milk, and toiletries. The cottage itself was clean, cozy, and well-equipped. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided. The cottage is also located on a working farm, so I enjoyed seeing the animals and taking walks in the surrounding fields or nearby beaches. The cottage and owners are very dog-friendly, so I was able to bring my assistance dog along with me. Carys and Kerry's own dogs and other animals were kept separate from us, but they were happy to let us see them if we were interested. Luna? is a lovely big dog! Overall, we had a wonderful stay at Caner Bach Lodge. The owners are friendly and welcoming, the cottage is clean and cozy, and the location is perfect for those who want to relax and unwind in a rural setting. I would highly recommend Caner Bach Lodge to anyone looking for a dog-friendly cottage getaway in South Wales.
Thank you for the lovely feedback, so Glad you enjoyed your stay. it was a pleasure having you all stay, such a wonderful job you do making such a difference to so many with your amazing Assistant doggy. Property Owner

"A lovely little place - very peaceful with an abundance of scenic walks very close by."
Also, the M4 is about 15 minutes away so you easily get to Cardiff or Swansea to enjoy the sights or go shopping. I for one enjoyed the tranquility and that feeling of being away from things but knowing everything you might need is close by. A final word regarding the hosts - warm, friendly and always ready to sort out anything that might crop up or questions about the locale - best places to walk, local things of interest. A lovely couple. I’d certainly go back again.
Thank you so Much for the kind feedback, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Property Owner

"We stayed at Caner Bach Lodge for two nights after our wedding and had a lovely stay."
The hosts couldn’t be more welcoming, including some lovely touches that made us feel so special. It’s a small place, which was perfect for us, cosy and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen that we felt at home in instantly. We were able to meet the animals which was lovely, and had some nice walks in the countryside as well. We'll definitely be coming back to stay in the future!
Hi Leanne, Thank you for your valued feedback, it was lovely to meet you both and glad you enjoyed your stay at Caner Bach Lodge. We wish you all the best for the future and a happy prosperous future together as husband & wife. Best regards, Kerry, Cary’s & Family Property Owner

Hi Linda, Thank you for your lovely feedback its appreciated, it was lovely meeting you both and glad you had a lovely time in Wales. Best regards Kerry, Carys & Family Property Owner

"Firstly it should be noted that the track to the property is only really suitable for 4x4 vehicles and should you not be a confident driver, then the extreme pot holes would have the ability to over turn your vehicle."
The property has a deep, approx 9” step down into the bedroom without any warning of this, it would have been easy to not have seen it and hurt yourself - this is not mentioned anywhere in the property description. There is literally just enough room to shuffle along the wall & the base of bed, you are not able to walk freely! A massive problem with woodlice in both the bathroom & bedroom, & when approaching the owners regarding this, we were simply told that they had the same issue in their own house (as this is acceptable!). Lack of kitchen utensils. Overall the property and the five star reviews are not true! Not an accurate description of the property, the amenities or the death trap of the track!
Hi Carolyn thank you for your valued feedback. Some good news after several complaints to the council they have finally filled in all of the pot holes and overlayed one particular area for 20 meters continuous with tarmac, as it is a council adopted road we have very little say or if and when it can be repaired. We are sorry you felt the cottage was not up to your standard and it would have been nice to have been informed while you were here with us. We do acknowledge the issue with woodlice however living on a farm tends to come with such challenges especially in our farm house. The kitchen is very well equipped of which we can revert to the other guests feedback, again disappointing that you didn’t bring this to our attention while you were here so we could have resolved such issues. Nevertheless it was lovely to meet you both and thank you for choosing Caner Bach Lodge. Best regards Kerry, Cary’s & Family Property Owner

"Absolutely fabulous hosts including the lovely dogs… the lodge was very cute & cosy with a nice touch of providing milk & bread for our arrival."
. will defo go back in the future… Many thanks… Only one down side was, the bumpy track going up to property was never mentioned in the advert.. good job we had a pick-up..
Hi Suzanne, Thank you for your valued feedback, it was great to meet you both and glad you enjoyed your stay in Wales. We deeply apologise about the road leading up to the Farm, I have spoken with the Highways Inspector who has promised me that any pot holes will be dealt with as a priority, as it is a council adopted road and therefore the Local Councils responsibility to maintain in good order. We hope this puts your mind at rest should you decide to visit us again in the future. Best regards, Kerry, Carys & Family. Property Owner

"We had a fantastic stay in a beautiful cottage."
Carys and Kerry and the dogs made us feel welcome. We got to meet the animals which was amazing. The cottage was in a peaceful location away from the main road with amazing views nestled up in the hills. It was easy to travel to other places with good access to roads and the M4. If you're looking for a holiday to get away and unwind we would recommend Caner Bach Lodge to all.
Hi David, Thank you for your lovely feedback its appreciated, it was lovely meeting you both and glad you had a lovely time in Wales. Best regards Kerry, Carys & Family Property Owner

"Lovely place."
The family made us and our dog feel extremely welcome. Would definitely stay here again as they made it so easy with the dog and he loved being able to run around and play with their dogs.
Hi Claire, Thank you for your lovely feedback its appreciated, it was lovely meeting you both and glad you had a lovely time in Wales, and of course loved seeing your fur baby. Best regards Kerry, Carys & Family Property Owner

"What a great break we had at Caner Back Lodge we had!"
The owners couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome. I would really recommend for anyone wanting a quiet break away from noisy roads.

"We spent 5nights 1-6/12/22."
Our cottage was fantastic, cosy and perfect for my husband, self and little dog. Hosts were lovely, their dogs were away from our little one, so no issues. Amazing place, will definitely go back and highly recommend x

"Caner bach lodge is beautiful!"
The perfect romantic getaway for me and my partner. Stunning location and extremely well kept, this little lodge was perfect for us to relax in on a lazy day and to have as our base on our days out. Unfortunately we seemed to be missing a few amenities (loo roll mainly and possibly need to add a sanitary bin for us ladies) but thankfully there is a supermarket only a 10 minute drive away. Would highly recommend in the future!

"Kerry & Carys were very friendly and helpful hosts, welcoming us with our 2 dogs to the cottage on their farm."
Our daughter and her family were made welcome too during our stay. Steep drive up the hillside on arrival but guided in on the phone by Kerry. Lovely clean cottage with bread & milk in the fridge. Pygmy goats and pot belly pigs made the stay interesting with beautiful views of the Ogmore Valley. Local pubs etc for food and drink or facilities to cook at the cottage. We had a restful and pleasant long weekend.
-
"I wish that the shower had more pressure,and sink had hot water."
And a mattress topper would not go amiss. Other than that right off the beaten track lovely location. I deal place to stay and explore that part of Wales, and the friendly welcome we were given whilst staying there would be hard to beat.
-
"The lodge was excellent ."
Hosts were both very friendly and available if needed had a very stress free stay just what we needed. The area is very good . The welcome was first class we will be going again

"Beautiful location way up on the top of a mountain - owners very helpful"
-
"The cottage was amazing and the family were all so helpful and friendly."
-
"Delightful remote cottage for 2."
Wonderful hosts. Fantastic views. Challenging drive on the approach especially if you make the mistake of coming in from the south by satnav rather than following the instructions and coming in via the village from the west.
Thank you so much for the Lovely feedback, we are really pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us, it was a pleasure meeting you and your Beautiful four legged baby. You are right about the Directions, some sat Nav don’t pick up our location and can lead to narrow county lanes as we share our postcode with 4 other farms. It’s recommended to contact us before arriving, I have identified easier direction and we will send a text messages to guest before arrival. Property Owner

"Had a lovely week."
The cottage is well equipped and very clean. It's on the top of a mountain the views are stunning. The owners very friendly and helpful.
Thank you so Much Susan for your Kind Review, so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Property Owner

"Property has lovely views."
Lounge kitchen area felt a bit cramped. No direct access to garden from property. Nowhere to hang wet coats etc. No hot water in bathroom sink. Bed and one of the sofas not particularly comfy. Numerous dogs on property and although very cute were quite noisy at times. Owners were very welcoming. Despite the negatives we enjoyed our short break here and the surrounding area.
Thank you for you feedback Sorry to hear we didn’t meet all your expectations,. we have taken all your comments on board, We always want our guests to have the best experience possible and we aim to help if we can. You are right it is small and we do state that it’s a small cosy cottage, In terms of the wet coats and wet shoes we would have happily sorted this for you during your stay if we would have know, we can place wet items in our outer buildings opposite the cottage, we have now added a coat area and place for wet shoes. The hot water in the bathroom sink we are still awaiting a small boiler to be fitted in that area but the shower and kitchen have hot water, As you know The cottage is located on a small working farm. We like to offer all our guests opportunity to meet all our pet animals. Even our dogs they are all very loving and playful we do allot on social media with our pets and hoping in the near future to offer more animal therapy opportunities. With dogs it’s natural response for them to bark, especially when you bring a new dog onto a property, your dog also has to discover a new territory it was completely normal for both ours and your dog to bark at each other. Our dogs are usually very quite, only time they are noisy is when they are out playing or triggered by noise. We only let our dogs out at specific times and try to plan this when guests are out, if Guests stay in all day we let them know of the 20 minute intervals of them playing.. It was lovely meeting you all, hope you have now settled into your new home. Best wishes Kerry and Carys Brennan Property Owner

"Comfortable accommodation, well equipped and very helpful owners."
As others have said there are lots of dogs around and they were all very friendly. I used this as base for accessing the coast for walking. Don't use satnav to take you to the property as it takes you a very difficult way down some exceedingly narrow lanes
-
"Would not return EVER again."
Please take the time to read the other reviews below about going with dogs, and listen to them! Do not go if you have a dog - should not be a dog friendly property due to the dogs on site.
Thank you for your Feedback Sarah We are sorry to read this, as we explained we do have policies in place to keep both you and your pet safe, which sadly if you ignore can cause problems as you encountered . The cottage is located on a small working farm and we do have a number of dogs on our property which are all friendly and love to play but only at selected times of day, We always advise on approach to the farm if the dogs are out playing to give us a call or shout and to give us time to get the dogs in, until it’s safe to keep you and your pet safe. An animals instinct is to protect their home, no matter how soft and even when introduced we have to be mindful and stop and think, you can’t just open the gate and let a dog walk in. Just like a park or out and about, we have to be mindful at all times we never know how an animal will react. We are so glad your dog didn’t come to any harm we just wish you would had stayed so you could have calm down and discussed what happened. Best wishes Kerry & Carys Property Owner

"Wonderful hosts, beautiful location and a doggy paradise!"

"Lovely hosts xx handy location"

"My partner and I returned from a lovely relaxing stay in canerbach lodge at the end of August."
It’s a secluded location located on top of a hill offering the most stunning stunning views!! We sat on top of the hill one evening just behind the lodge to watch the sunset. We absolutely loved spending time with all of the animals on the farm! Kerry and Carys the owners were so friendly and attentive and they recommended some great places to visit during our stay.
-
"Great little lodge in amazing countryside that pictures don’t do justice it’s also not far from local pubs and shops."
Brilliant location close to the motorway so can travel very easily too. Hosts were so nice and very welcoming also. One recommendation is to follow the directions provided by the host as the sat nav will want to take you through all the tight country lanes!
-
"Can’t recommend Caner Bach Lodge enough."
Kerry and Carys were fabulous hosts and couldn’t make you feel more welcome. The lodge is beautiful, clean and cosy. The lodge is a great location for exploring Wales. Hank our dog also had a fantastic time away. We will definitely be returning in the future! Couldn’t recommend this place enough! A real home from home.
-
"Your description of ‘there are dogs on site’ is in no way adequate to describe the fact that there are around fifteen dogs on site all running around free and barking."
They are mainly French Bulldogs and Pugs which are being bred from but there are also two very large dogs, a Maremma and a Tibetan Mastiff, both bred for guarding. Unfortunately a wandering sheep, a hiker or the local farmer haymaking is enough to send the Maremma rushing to the gate barking which sets all the others off. This was in no way a peaceful holiday and after witnessing two very nasty dog fights in which the whole pack attacked the newest addition we returned home after six days, although booked in for two weeks. I would advise anybody planning to take their own dog with them on holiday to think twice and if you go ahead then be extremely careful. I would add that my husband and I have had dogs all our lives and are totally confident around them, which is just as well.

"Caner-Bach is one of the most relaxing breaks you could possibly hope for."
Situated halfway up a Welsh mountain the cottage is cosy and has everything you could need. The owners are the perfect hosts who will do anything to ensure you have a good holiday whether you decide to spend all your time at the farm or use it as a base to visit other parts of Wales. The animals are very sociable and love your company. We will definitely be returning to Caner-Bach.

Need to be aware of ware you are going as it a bit of the beaten track but we'll worth it in the end the owners are a delightful and the dogs too

"We had the most wonderful stay and most wonderful hosts."
Our dog also had the most wonderful stay and enjoyed the extra four legged company! Definitely a place we would love to go back too. Thanks for having us and making us feel so welcome :)
-
"The cottage is beautifully situated with stunning views and walks."
The hosts are exceptionally helpful and friendly. An animal lovers paradise!
-
"On arrival we (my husband and I) were welcomed by Caris who showed us around the lodge, which is absolutely immaculate."
Both Caris and Kerry are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. We took along our two small dogs, which again were made very welcome and quickly made friends with the pugs and the beautiful Maremma sheepdog, Lexi, who although she towered over our little dogs, became a great favourite with them both! We only had one slight upset during the week we stayed there, and that was on Tuesday we returned to the lodge to find the family's French Bulldogs running loose, we were assured by Caris that they were all friendly, so we went through the gate with our two dogs. Unfortunately, both our dogs were attacked by two of the French Bulldogs, we quickly picked up our dogs, but one of the French Bulldogs continued to jump up,pulling on our dogs tail. Once Caris realised what was happening, she rounded her dogs up and took them back to their kennels. Both Kerry and Caris have apologised to us, which of course we accept, but unfortunately, since it happened, our smallest dog became very wary of going out of the lodge door, nervous of what dogs were around. We have been reassured that Kerry is going to make a seperate area that his dogs can exercise in future, so this will not happen to future guests, and it will not stop us staying there again.

"We had a wonderful stay in September."
The cottage was lovely, cosy and warm and very comfortable. Carys and Kerry were very friendly, welcoming and helpful and made us feel very much at home. We loved seeing the animals, especially Lexi and Coco who kept us company. The views were spectacular from the top of the hill and the nearby pub ideal. We were sad to leave after our 2 day stay but will definitely be back for more in the future
-
"Think most previous reviews have covered everything but just to echo the sentiment, A lovely place to spend some relaxing holiday time."
Run by a lovely couple, (Carys and Kerry), set in a stunning location with an abundance of footpaths and cycling trails on the doorstep and just a short drive to the coast. Perfect.
-
"We had an amazing time at this lovely farm."
We couldn’t even imagine more welcoming hosts. The location is beautiful.The lodge is small but cozy and lovely decorated. We loved the place and our children didn’t even wanted to leave for a trip as the animals on the farm and our hosts made them much happier than anything we offered. They told us there is no place they would like to go for holiday except the Caner Bach farm. Says it all.
-
"The cottage is set high up on a hill that overlooks the three valleys in the county Bridgend in Wales."
It is such a peaceful and beautiful spot. We spent our second evening on a hill, as guided by our hosts, to watch the sunset. The cottage is very lovely, and super clean. The two hosts were there to greet us upon our arrival - and were so incredibly lovely and helpful during our stay. The cottage itself is cozy, clean, and provides the perfect little escape from day to day life. The bed is comfortable and the showers hot! The place was immaculate as well. We had some really great recommendations on things to see from the hosts, and thoroughly enjoyed our time. Would highly recommend this place!
-
"Amazing location and accommodation."
Very friendly owners who couldn’t do enough for us. One of the best places we have been to and can’t wait to return.
-
"Very relaxing time spent at the lodge."
The hosts very warm and friendly. All viewpoints extremely good.
-
"We had a lovely relaxing break in this wee cottage."
It was very comfortable, clean and located in the most beautiful Welsh hills. Despite the rain we had amazing walks over the hills, enjoying hearing and watching the skylarks, and simply getting away from it all. The owners were so welcoming, kind and friendly, leaving us apple pie and custard, bread and milk in our cottage for our arrival, and providing us with the most amazing home made sausages and fresh eggs for our breakfast. We would thoroughly recommend Caner Bach Lodge, and would love to go back for longer.
-
"It was the best place ever, the owners are fantastic and their children are so lovely."
They made me feel like part of the family. Everything I wanted there and more. The place is better than described on your site. It should be it's heaven. The peace and quiet is fantastic and the views are beautiful. I would have stayed there for the rest of my life if I could. The biggest disappointment was that I had to leave such a fantastic place and such a wonderful family xxxxxx
-
"Lovely place."
Cottage was very cosy, location felt out of the way which is what we wanted but was also surprisingly close to near towns etc. Lovely location and beautiful scenery. Me and the kids thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the family were lovely and very welcoming (and so were the pets).
-
"Everything about the holiday was amazing, from the warmth of the owners to the wonderful facilities of the lodge."
The views of the surrounding Welsh hills were breathtakingly gorgeous. Could not fault anything. We have already booked the lodge again , and we can not wait.
-
"Caner Bach Lodge is a rare and beautiful find."
It is set high in the hills above Blackmill with breath taking views. The hosts, Carys, Kerry and their family, could not have been more friendly and helpful and are dog lovers too. We cannot thank them enough for their kindness. We are going back again in a months' time and you cannot get a better recommendation than that!
-
"Fantastic location and very friendly owners."
Made to feel very welcome and daughter was even invited to join their Halloween party. Cracking weekend away.
-
"The cottage is in a great location very clean and comfortable the owners are very nice and very friendly people would love to go and stay again would highly recommend this cottage."
many thanks top marks

"Great out of the way retreat the owners were fantastic ,there farm is in a beautiful spot and the family dog we wanted to take her home with us ,a must is their sausages and eggs."
Had a great time .
-
"The accommodation was spotlessly clean, fantastic facilities, and the hosts were exceptional and couldn't do enough for us."
The views are stunning and the surrounding countryside was perfect for walking our dog. With the cottage only a few miles from the MacArthur Glen outlet village and 20 minutes from the local beach at Porthcawl as well as being only 30 mins from Cardiff bay, the location is perfect for visitors of all interests. The added bonus is the animals on the farm and the owners family, who were so lovely. I can't recommend Caner Bach farm highly enough.
