“Exactly as pictured and described - a shepherd's hut, on a working farm - even so, it's fitted well enough to cater for most needs (shower, hob, fridge, and even wi-fi broadband!”

) Heating is mainly supplied by a small log-burner which when lit provided more than enough heat for us both and this was in January with 50 MPH winds outside!! (We can assure everyone that the hut is well anchored!) ...

) Heating is mainly supplied by a small log-burner which when lit provided more than enough heat for us both and this was in January with 50 MPH winds outside!! (We can assure everyone that the hut is well anchored!) It was a perfect base for my wife and I to go walking, and when weather was bad, to sit in, read, write, edit photo's and enjoy the peacefull views. Apart from weather conditions out to sea, the ocean is visible from every window along with livestock, open fields, mountains - the only visible habitation seemed miles away! you really are alone here. However, our host was very approachable, easily found or contacted and nothing we asked for was too much trouble. We hesitate to recommend this property only because it would mean less available dates for us - but seriously, if you want to escape into a beautiful landscape where the main noises are the weather, an occaisional bleat of sheep and the calling of birds this is the place. A perfect cosy retreat for one or two people and an inspirational haven if you're of the creative persuasion.

Mr Gentle October 2021

“Well thought out facilities along with the extra touches on our arrival, very friendly owner.”

Lovely and peaceful with beautiful sunsets and walks in the area. We would love to revisit in the near future and a perfect place to unwind and relax, the property was warm and comfortable.

- Mr Gentle, October 2021
Mrs Davies August 2021

“I loved that it was quite basic accommodation but also comfortable, out of the way and so quiet and peaceful.”

I appreciated the radio but glad of no TV (not that you could have fitted one in). I was also pleased to find a pint of milk and 2 small bottles of cold water in the fridge. There was no hot water to the sink but the kettle provided enough for my needs. The shower worked very well so there was enough hot water to keep me clean. I loved Anglesey and found it easy to get around to visit places and after a busy day it was bliss to come back to the peace and quiet. Would I come again? YES most definitely. Friends have already asked for the details after seeing my photos.

- Mrs Davies, August 2021
Ms Rigby August 2021

“The location was extremely peaceful and relaxing.”

The sunset was amazing and the accommodation was lovely. Everything that we needed was provided. The host was very helpful and we had a great stay!

- Ms Rigby, August 2021
Mrs Reeder August 2021

“The hut is quirky and cosy.”

It has everything you could need. There's bags of hot water in the shower. The bed is extremely comfortable and the towels are big and soft! The welcome items were a nice surprise. Mrs Campbell is the ideal owner. She's very friendly and responds immediately to any queries. If you're thinking about booking this hut, just do it!

- Mrs Reeder, August 2021
Mrs Bruce August 2021

“Lovely place to stay.”

Comfortable bed and good facilities. Shower difficult to get the right temperature but managed to eventually. Amazing views from this Shepherds hut with beautiful sunsets to admire. Very windy at times so good idea to bring warmer clothes. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

- Mrs Bruce, August 2021
Mr Kelley July 2021

“The view was fantastic.”

A really great place to retreat to (but not a million miles away from everything).

- Mr Kelley, July 2021
Mrs Irwin July 2021

“The only means of heat was a woodburner.”

No fuel was supplied. A fan heater or similar would have been welcome as it would have been simple to use and can be easily switched off.

- Mrs Irwin, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback. Customer comments are very important to us. The property has a starter pack for the woodburner but after this is used, Customers needs to buy their own wood. Due to the size of the property we dont have the space for a fan. Property Owner
Mr Jay June 2021

“We were absolutely blown away by our stay.”

The hut itself was surprisingly spacious, with a lovely little kitchen, more than adequate wood burner, and a superb little bathroom. The shower was spot on after a day kayaking. The views from all sides, both day and night were breathtaking, with a wonderful view of the sea, and closer to home so much wildlife with birds of prey observed metres away. Not to mention the inquisitive cows in the field next to us. Overall, we really wished we could have stayed longer. The peace and tranquillity really makes this stay a must for busy people, and busy lives! Stay here and admire the wonderful view with a glass of wine!

- Mr Jay, June 2021
Mr Oliver May 2021

“Beautiful scenery, can walk from the property or short drives to different walks or beaches.”

Everything you need in a well though out shepherd's hut. The owner was friendly and helpful too!

Mr Baldwin September 2020

“Water pressure is low therefore the hot water in the shower and hot taps is intermittent or at worst none at all”

- Mr Baldwin, September 2020
Mrs Parcell September 2020

“Wonderful Shepard’s hut we had a perfect week with the weather so able to explore the area and days out kayaking and paddle boarding.”

The views of the sunset in the evening was magnificent, the cows and sheep in the field was a delight. WiFi was brilliant, great not to have a TV but the only problem we did have was the water pressure, once we read previous reviews we decided to buy 2 buckets and a big sponge so we filled them up every day so we could have a wash down after our adventures in the sea, this was not a problem to us as we are very adaptable and it was fun, we had to boil the kettle to get hot water but as long was we filled up every day this was not a problem either. We did mention it but I don’t think they could do anything about it, this did not spoil our holiday.

- Mrs Parcell, September 2020
Mr Curry September 2020

“The Shepherds hut was in a fantastic location and the owner really helped us get the best out of our stay, the hut itself was so comfortable and inviting and clean.”

The views were amazing

- Mr Curry, September 2020
Ms Van Gestel September 2020

“The hut was well made and solid and cosy in the very windy weather.”

The views were stunning. However the water facilities were next to non existent. In the morning the two sinks either had no water or a trickle and neither had hot water at all. The shower was similar but even when water flowed it just kept quickly alternating between very cold and scalding hot so we were unable to shower at all. We called round to the house but no one was in so we rang later that day while we were out. The host was apologetic and offered us to have a shower in her house if need be which was appreciated. She also explained this was a recurring problem as the water facilities are simply not up to the job particularly when the cows are thirsty and she is doing a big laundry wash! There are plans to rectify this by putting in a larger tank at some point. We returned quite late that evening, about 10pm, so could not take advantage of the offer of a shower at the house. In the morning the water situation was exactly the same and we left again without showering. Fortunately the next similar type of place we stayed at - at about two thirds of the price BTW - had a very good shower room that worked. We are seasoned campers/glampers and are used to roughing it sometimes but feel that we paid a top price for the hut. This was not in any way justified by the inadequacy of the facilities. Feeling very dissatisfied, we think we deserve some money refunded.

- Ms Van Gestel, September 2020
Miss Cawley August 2020

“A really lovely hut in a perfect spot full of peace and relaxation.”

The views from this hut were amazing and made us want to sit out on the balcony during day and night. The hut contains all the essentials and there is an equipped kitchen area that we were able to make full breakfasts, lunches and dinners. The log burner was a nice treat when it became a little cooler in the evenings. It is a short stroll from a couple of pebble beaches. Apart from that, a car is necessary to get you to further attractions, supermarkets and pubs and restaurants. Mrs Campbell was a really welcoming host. She briefly checked on us one afternoon and was always willing to answer any questions or give suggestions. We will definitely be going back!

- Miss Cawley, August 2020
Mrs Birchenough August 2020

“Lovely peaceful location with views to die for.”

The host couldn’t do enough for us - super helpful and friendly, giving us fresh eggs and milk and lots of advice about where to visit.

- Mrs Birchenough, August 2020
Mr Creber March 2020

“Fabulous accommodation.”

Remote and cozy. Perfect for a getaway from life’s busy hustle. Gwyneth was lovely and couldn’t have been more helpful. The Shepherds Hut is small, compact and basic and just perfect. We loved it. Very windy and the Wifi is very sketchy but who cares when you are in the middle of nowhere and enjoying a glass of wine on the deck watching the sun going down. Perfect

- Mr Creber, March 2020
Miss Davies October 2019

“We had a fantastic time at the Shepherd's hut and would definitely book again.”

Very clean and lots of extras which we were not expecting such as milk, coffee, washing up liquid, tea towel, sponge, toilet paper, toiletries and the kitchen was well equipped for cooking and utensils. The stove kept the hut very cosy and warm too so gone were concerns about being cold. Brilliant location for scenery and local beaches. Also only a few minutes drive to South stack Lighthouse. Easy to find too. Highly recommended to anyway wanting something different.

- Miss Davies, October 2019
Mrs Sharples September 2019

“Stunning location, wonderful views to the sea in the distance, very peaceful and quiet.”

We liked the 'quirkiness' of being in a shepherd's hut, which though very compact was comfortable and contained all we required. The owner was friendly and helpful. Beautiful night skies. Lots of places to visit on Anglesey, lovely scenery and coastal walks. We would definitely like to return to stay here again.

- Mrs Sharples, September 2019
Mrs Singleton August 2019

“Had a lovely time , spotlessly clean, stylish interior.”

Was so cute and cosy. The views from each window were amazing. To see sea and country side wherever you looked. Lovely to sit outside with a glass of wine in the evening and watch the sunset. Was exciting in the storm too , log burner going watching the rain come in. Love that towels provided and a heated radiator to dry them on.. Mrs Campbell was lovely and we were able to collect some eggs from the chickens to take home. More than 10 out of 10 highly recommend.

- Mrs Singleton, August 2019
Mrs Von Loeben August 2019

“Absolutely stunning views, the peace and quiet is priceless.”

The property is so well equipped and the bed is very comfortable. Highly recommend!!!

- Mrs Von Loeben, August 2019
Mr Perry July 2019

“The shepherd hut is situated in the best position with amazing views over the bay.”

You are able to sit and enjoy the complete peace plus also enjoy seeing the farm animals. The accommodation is cosy, very clean with quality facilities. Mrs Campbell is very friendly and informative of the area giving great suggestions of restaurants and hidden gems to be found in the area. Highly recommend if you are wishing to completely chill.

- Mr Perry, July 2019
Mr Burke April 2019

“Absolutely fantastic accommodation with spectacular views to the sea.”

Mrs Campbell was also fantastic and brought us fresh eggs which were lovely. Can't recomend this enough. Really enjoyed our stay.

- Mr Burke, April 2019
Ms Mullins April 2019

“The holiday and shepherds hut were perfect for a fantastic weeekend break.”

Thoroughly enjoyed and would definitely recommend. Many thanks Becky

- Ms Mullins, April 2019
Ms Kemp April 2019

“The shepherd's hut that we were booked had someone else staying in it, so we went into the other one that was available.”

It was lovely and we were not disappointed at all but it would appear that the owner did not know which one we were supposed to be in. This did not have a bearing at all on our experience but I have put that the accuracy of our booking was not fulfilled. I would stay here again and highly recommend it.

- Ms Kemp, April 2019
Mrs Eardley March 2019

“Beautiful location with stunning views, a very delux shepherds hut which we would recommend to anyone wanting a different experience.”

- Mrs Eardley, March 2019
Mrs Glover October 2018

“Accommodation was beautiful.”

Problems with water pressure so sometimes impossible to shower, apart from that would definitely return. The owner was So lovely and went out of her way to make the holiday just perfect.

- Mrs Glover, October 2018
Mrs Clough September 2018

“The shepherds hut was all it was advertised & more.”

Beautiful setting with a panoramic view of sea, mountains & fields. We didn't bring the car so I need to mention that the nearest shop or pub is a bit of a walk away but it is a scenic walk. The shed had all we needed, it was cosy, clean & romantic. I cannot compliment the owner enough. What a lovely lady. We were provided with fresh eggs from her own chickens and milk on arrival. We will be definitely be going back!!!

- Mrs Clough, September 2018
Ms Fox August 2018

“Gorgeous little place with a fantastic view.”

Loved the extra treat of the surprise newly laid eggs

- Ms Fox, August 2018
Mrs Bell July 2018

“The shepherd’s hut was brilliant.”

We couldn’t have asked for more. There was everything you needed but the best thing was being able to throw open the doors and you have complete privacy and fantastic views. It was like bringing the countryside and the sea into your accommodation. We would definitely stay here again. Gwen, the owner, is really lovely. She brought us eggs for breakfast one day and clean towels were supplied half way through the week. She was great to talk to but never bothered us. I cannot rate this property highly enough and there is loads to do on Anglesey.

- Mrs Bell, July 2018
Mrs Hallam June 2018

“My husband & I had a perfect week, the hut exceeded our expectations.”

Perfect location & stunning views. Mrs Campbell was very welcoming & always stopped to have a chat. We would definitely recommend Bodwarren Farm.

- Mrs Hallam, June 2018
Mr Dover June 2018

“The shepherds hut we stayed in met all our expectations we had had everything ...”

The shepherds hut we stayed in met all our expectations we had had everything that we needed and it was spotlessly clean Mrs Campbell the owner went out of her way to make us welcome and during the week checked to make sure everything was fine bring us clean towels and fresh eggs It was a great experience and one to be recommended

- Mr Dover, June 2018
Mr Frankland June 2018

“Wasn’t sure I’d done the right thing being shacked up with the misses in a hut for a week with no tele.”

.....but I needn’t have worried because we had a wonderful weeks holiday. The hut itself is very cosy , we slept very well on the bed , the halogen hob is a great bit of kit , as well as toaster , kettle and lots of other kitchen utensils. Yes you do have to adapt to living in a small hut environment but that’s part of the fun. There was a slight problem with the water pressure which wasn’t a major issue and Gwyneth the lovely owner was on the case ! A very determined women whom I’m sure will find the fault and have it fixed in no time. Gwyneth by the way is lovely to talk to , very knowledgeable, friendly and always there if you need help. Finally the best asset of the hut is the view ! Open both doors and suddenly from a small hut to open green fields , sea , sky , mountain, sheep , cattle , birdsong, fantastic. We were very lucky with the weather and made best use of the outside space, I brought 2 recliner chairs from home and there is a BBQ to use with the hut so taking in all that scenery, very relaxing and peaceful.

- Mr Frankland, June 2018
Ms Haylor May 2018

“We would highly recommend the Shepherds Hut at Bodwarren Farm.”

We have just returned from a weeks stay there and had a fabulous time. Mrs Campbell was a wonderful host and made us feel very welcome. We had amazing weather (lucky I know!) but it is the location of this beautiful hut that is so superb. Set in peaceful countryside with amazing sea views, it is a truly stunning location. The hut itself was beautiful, with everything you need. Having a bbq provided was a lovely touch, and we had some great meals on the balcony. Many thanks to Mrs Campbell and Sykes for a glorious holiday!

Ms Collins May 2018

“This is a wonderful place to stay!”

Surrounded by cows and sheep on a farm. Ms. Campbell was a wonderful host and even let us visit the few lambs that were being bottle fed and sent us back to the Shepard’s hut with fresh eggs for breakfast.

- Ms Collins, May 2018
Mr Packwood March 2018

The Shepherds Hut was beautifully done and for the size, very well equipped. Well recommended. Thank you.

About the location

HOLYHEAD

Trearddur Bay 3 miles.

The bustling town of Holyhead rests on the North West coast of the Isle of Anglesey, the largest town on the island and perhaps known best for being the main ferry port to Ireland. Steeped in history, the town boasts the remains of Roman town walls and forts, medieval burial chambers and stone village foundations. Explore the Breakwater Country Park, a former quarry, which offers designated walks through the grounds. The park is full of interesting wildlife, most notably the seals who visit the Holyhead coast, and outlines the amazing construction of the world's longest breakwater, some 1.8 miles, which today protects the harbour. Visit the colourful marina with its yachts and tall ships, or the town's maritime museum, with its tales of 100 shipwrecks in the vicinity. Day trips to Ireland can be enjoyed easily from here, with Dublin just 90 minutes away on the fast ferry. With spectacular cliff top walks over Holyhead Mountain, golden sandy beaches at the award winning Trearddur Bay and the Snowdonia National Park just a 20 minute drive away, this is a superb holiday location, at any time of the year.
