Hi all just wondered if anyone has stayed in these cabins at Afan and could give me a quick review.

Certainly have. Stayed there a number of times.

Plus;
Location - Straight on to the Wall or W2
Size - Plenty big enough inside, really nice layout too
Evenings on the terrace out front - Great open space
Other users - Everyone else will be a rider as well

Minus;
Location - It's hard to find up a dirt track!
Location - Not within real walking distance of a pub!
Kit - Often find that the pan/knife set up is rather poor. Take your own knife at least

Overall, though, really good place to stay! Recommended.

I agree, stayed there for a weekend and they were fine, basic as you would expect but perfect for trail access. Take plenty food and beer and there is a bbq so possibly charcoal.

Yup -stayed there quite a few times - usually a big group of us take it over at Easter.

They do the job. Nothing fancy. The heaters are a bit hit and miss (important in the winter!) and a pensioner with prostate trouble could piss harder than the showers. Kitchen stuff is a bit basic - as above take your own sharp knives.

It's about 3 mins off the top of the Wall descent, which can make for a fairly sharp wake up call when you start in the morning (worth doing the Graveyard first as a wake up). They're also building a very cool looking 4x track and some monster DJ's in the field behind the cabins.
