Orme View Lodges

Self-catering lodges and shepherd’s huts near Bangor

Orme View Lodges is a small, highly rated collection of self-catering log cabins and shepherd’s huts in a peaceful rural setting just outside Bangor, in the north-west corner of Wales. With sea views, private outdoor space and a genuinely exceptional guest rating, it makes a relaxing base for couples and small families exploring the North Wales coast, Anglesey and the mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia).

A choice of cabins and huts

The site offers a few different options to suit the size of your party. The two-bedroom log cabin sleeps up to six, the one-bedroom cabin sleeps up to four, and there are two cosy shepherd’s huts — the Snowdon and the Puffin — each with a queen bed for a couple’s getaway. The cabins come with fully equipped kitchens, comfortable living areas, flat-screen televisions, central heating and en-suite shower rooms, so everything you need is to hand for a self-catering break at your own pace.

Sea views and outdoor space

The setting is a real highlight, with sea views across towards Anglesey and a large shared garden with barbecue facilities for long summer evenings outdoors. There is free private parking on site and free WiFi throughout, and the whole place is non-smoking. Pets are not accepted. The peaceful, rural position — yet only a few minutes from the city and the coast — is exactly what earns it such glowing feedback from guests.

Bangor, the Menai Strait and beyond

The cathedral city of Bangor, around three miles away, sits on the Menai Strait and is home to a historic university, the restored Victorian Garth Pier and the bridges across to Anglesey. From here you are wonderfully placed to explore: the Isle of Anglesey is just a few minutes’ drive over the Strait, the mountains of Snowdonia National Park are around twelve miles away, and the castle town of Caernarfon is a short drive down the coast.

A great base for North Wales

Few spots put so much within easy reach. In one direction lie the beaches and coastal walks of Anglesey; in another, the peaks, waterfalls and steam railways of Snowdonia; and along the coast, the Victorian seaside resort of Llandudno with its pier and the Great Orme. Bangor itself has shops, eateries and the Pontio arts centre, while Penrhyn Castle and its grounds are close by. With a comfortable, well-kept cabin to return to and a glowing 9.5 out of 10 from hundreds of guests, Orme View Lodges is a reassuring, restful choice.
