A note from the site themselves...

We love nature, wildlife, and most of all, we love our Welsh heritage. We're a young family and speak Welsh as our first language. Cae Lal is a place where we showcase all of our passions. We enjoy bringing people together and allowing people to have a space to reconnect with themselves and with our wonderful nature.

We'd like to think of Cae Lal as a retreat and hope that our guests feel completely rejuvenated after their stay here, Bethan
