  • Cosy ensuite shepherd's huts at a 20-acre Denbighshire smallholding
  • Ruthin 15 minutes' drive; half an hour to Llangollen or Lake Bala
  • Meet the animals on site, including peacocks, alpacas and goats
Roaming about in the gorgeous Welsh hills by day, cosying up in a lovely little hut by night – doesn’t that just sound like a fabulous plan for a rural break? It’s exactly this sort of schedule that tempts people to Hafoty Boeth, in the Denbighshire hamlet of Brynsaithmarchog, about 10 minutes’ drive from Corwen. It’s only half a mile from the A494 (a handy road for getting out to explore the area), but this is a supremely peaceful spot with gorgeous views all around, and plenty of little lanes to wander through nearby. The owners of this 20-acre smallholding have been living here for more than 40 years, and over that time they’ve gathered quite the menagerie, including alpacas, llamas, sheep, goats, geese… and a pet squirrel called Hazel. Guests are encouraged to meet the animals while they’re here – and will definitely get to know the peacocks that roam freely around the place too. Accommodation here is in comfortable and well-equipped shepherd’s huts, each of which has both underfloor heating and a separate heater to make sure you’ll be warm and cosy at all times. The self-contained huts have their own kitchen (with fridge, cooker, microwave and all the crockery and utensils you’ll need) and an ensuite shower room, along with a sitting area and TV. Outside, a barbecue is provided so you can cook while soaking up all that splendid scenery.

Liked Everything. The views, the peace. The hut had everything we needed. It was comfortable, warm and just perfect for what we needed.

The Peacock shepherd's hut

Liked Loved our overnight stay in the peacock shepards hut. On the day of arrival Got a text off carol the owner told us how to get there where our hut was located . On arrival the hut was spotless heating was on so lovley and warm . Very well equipped lovley decorated.the place is very peaceful at night . In the morning was lovley to wake up to the guinea fowls noises and the other animals there was alpacas, peacocks im the field outside the hut . We also met the owner carol lovley lady with her 2 dogs and a cat who told us about the animals we were allowed to go look around and go say hello to the goats , larmas , turkeys , geese and horses couldn't ask for a better stay would definitely recommend we will be returning. There is a bbq and firepit with wood provided aswell absolutely loved it would recommend the curry house valley spice in the village corwen

Disliked Just one small dislike the bathroom was freezing no underfloor heating like the rest of the hut definitely a draft from the window

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your review.The underfloor heating is not in the bathroom because it would cause problems with water from the shower etc. guests usually leave open the door from the main hut to the bathroom to give some warmth before getting a shower. It helps. Thanks again, Carol.

The Peacock shepherd's hut

Liked We had an amazing stay in the Peacock hut this weekend! The location is beautiful, lovely views, and very peaceful and relaxing. We loved wandering around the fields and meeting the animals. The pod itself is very cozy with the underfloor heating, immaculately clean, and well designed and thought out. Carol and her husband were so lovely and friendly, made us feel very welcome. Would definitely recommend and we will be back!

The Peacock shepherd's hut

Liked A wonderfully relaxing stay in a lovely peaceful location. The Shepherd's Hut is very comfortable. Warm and cosy in the rain, relaxing sitting in the swing chair in the sunshine with stunning views and the animals and birds pottering around. Enjoyed exploring Llangollen and Ruthin.

Local attractions

Once you’ve warmed up on the local lanes, perhaps you’d like a longer walk? If so, you could walk the woodland trails in Clocaenog Forest (20 minutes’ drive), head to the hills of the Clwydian Range & Dee Valley National Landscape (20 minutes) or venture into the mountainous landscapes of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park (half an hour). If you do head into Eryri, you may like to look beyond walking to some more adventurous activities – perhaps rafting at The National White Water Centre (half an hour) or ziplining and riding the forest coaster at Zip World Betws-y-Coed (40 minutes). For a more gentle outing, perhaps try canoeing or paddleboarding at Lake Bala (half an hour). For a bit of town time, Llangollen (half an hour) is a lovely choice – the town itself has lots of nice shops and cafés, and there are good walks to Horseshoe Falls and Castell Dinas Brân, or heritage rides on the Llangollen Railway. Medieval Ruthin (15 minutes) is another good choice, as is the city of Chester (55 minutes), home to all sorts of historic attractions as well as the famous zoo.
