Arriving at the dwelling, off-road parking for one car welcomes you, inviting you to make your way up the steps and into your temporary abode.

Whip up a quick breakfast in the kitchenette using the handy two-ring hob, before sitting down at the breakfast bar to plan your day's excursions. After a long day of discovering the local area, sink into the sofa and admire the countryside views across the private menage, before flicking on the TV to watch a film for the evening. In the warmer evenings, take advantage of the outdoor space at the property, home to an enclosed garden with a lawn and patio, as well as furniture and a barbecue so you can take you full dining experience outdoors and into the fresh country air. If you can tear yourself away from this pretty property, head to Pontrhydfendigaid, the closest village to your new home that has both a convenience store selling homely essentials, the Siop y Bont, and a pub within the Red Lion Hotel, which serves hearty food and refreshing drinks to locals and tourists alike. During your time in the area, why not treat yourself to a traditional Welsh pub meal at one of the local pubs such as Y Ffarmers, which boasts a delicious menu using fresh and local produce. Being surrounded in tranquil, rolling green fields ensures an abundance of walking and cycling opportunities within the immediate area, why not venture out to Bwlch y Geuffordd Gardens for a peaceful day of wandering the picture-perfect gardens? Embrace Welsh history and make your way to the Frongoch Mine Ruins to marvel at the ruins of a once-prevalent industry for the area, or perhaps enjoy exploring the Lisburne Metal Mine Waterwheel, which is just a short drive from the abode. Slightly further afield is the thriving coastal town of Aberystwyth, home to Aberystwyth Castle Grounds, 13th century ruins which still offer an amazing viewpoint across the sea. Railway and train enthusiasts will also enjoy Aberystwyth for its Vale of Rheidol Railway and Aberystwyth Cliff Railway experiences, but if that is not your cup of tea, you can always spend an afternoon soaking up the summer sun at the beach with an ice cream and some fish and chips! Whatever the weather, Caban Glas is a fantastic base for a memorable holiday to Wales.
Pontrhydfendigaid is a small village in Mid Wales between Devil’s Bridge and Tregaron. The village lies on the edge of the Cambrian Mountains in beautiful countryside. It sits on the River Teifi and his home to a local shop and two nearby pubs, the Red Lion and the Black Lion. Devil's Bridge has been a tourist attraction for centuries and was celebrated by author George Borrow who wrote Wild Wales in 1854. This famous bridge spans the Mynach, a tributary of the River Rheidol and is unique as it is actually three bridges in one, the original built around 1100, the second above this in 1753 and the third in 1903. The bridge is at a point where the River Mynach drops 90 metres (300 ft) in 5 steps down a steep and narrow ravine before it meets the River Rheidol. The set of stone steps leading down to the lowest bridge at the waterfall are known as Jacob's Ladder. The attraction offers viewing points and after the steep walk there is a hotel and cafe for refreshments. This whole area boasts stunning scenery and wildlife and is renowned for walking, cycling, fishing and bird watching as well as trips to the beautiful Cardigan Bay coastline with its wild cliffs and sandy beaches.
