Situated in the wonderfully stunning Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is also perfect for walkers, cyclists, birdwatchers, wildlife lovers, artists, photographers, yogis and yoginis! Beehive Cottage enjoys an idyllic, peaceful location and is set in stunning scenery that no photograph can do justice. There are beautiful gardens situated around the cottage with an acre of wild flower meadows and meadow grass lands. This detached, former stable has been lovingly transformed into a beautiful holiday sanctuary and the owner, a holistic therapist, has paid attention to every detail to ensure that visitors experience the same sense of well-being. The open-plan living area with a cosy wood burner has full width patio windows from which to enjoy the lovely views that surround the property, so even on a rainy day you can bring the outdoors in. The comfortable and beautifully presented bedroom also has patio doors that lead directly out onto the garden. Complete with several seating and dining areas and barbecue, the garden is the perfect place to unwind and relax. There is even a herb garden so that guests can pick their own herbs to cook with.
Beehive Cottage is located in the Denbighshire village of Bodfari, which is within the Clwydian Range Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Ideal for walkers, you can access the Clwydian Way directly from the property grounds, and Offa’s Dyke footpath is just a quarter of a mile away. Beehive Cottage is also in an Area of Archaeological Interest, with the ancient hill fort Moel Caer being close by. The medieval market town of Denbigh with its castle is just five miles away. Here you will find walking tours which take you around the town and castle. This is also a great place to stock up on the essentials. Other market towns worth visiting include Ruthin, 11 miles and Mold, 12 miles. Bodfari, where the cottage is located has a lovely art gallery you can visit, and within half a mile is a good pub serving food.
Whilst Beehive Cottage enjoys the idyllic rural location with 360° views of open countryside and rolling hills, the coast is also very accessible, and the beaches of Rhyl, Prestatyn and Talacre can all be reached within a short drive. Other places of interest within a short drive include St Winefride’s Well, nine miles, Llangollen, 28 miles, the Victorian seaside town of Llandudno and the Great Orme, 26 miles. National Trust’s Bodnant Garden, 25 miles, and Erdigg, 28 miles, are also worth a visit. Snowdonia is accessible from here and can be reached in around 45 minutes via the scenic Denbigh Moors. On the other side of the border, you can easily visit the historic cities of Chester and Liverpool. For overseas visitors, Manchester airport is just 45 minutes drive away. For evening entertainment, apart from pubs and restaurants there is Theatre Clwyd in Mold, Llandudno Theatre and Rhyl Pavillion.
Apart from being ideal for walkers, the area is fantastic for cycling. Golfers wont be disappointed either with two courses in Denbigh, and three others within a short distance.
Beehive Cottage was named after the owners’ love of bees and who are beekeepers themselves, but the property was originally named The Sanctuary, which says it all.

The prettiest cottage with most beautiful views we have ever seen. There are plenty of hiking paths and gentle walks from the property but you will not find a better view wherever you walk to. The gardens have been maintained so perfectly and all the different seating areas gives the opportunity to capture the most amazing sunsets, birds, bees, rabbits and nature at its finest. The cottage is spotless with lovely furniture and linens with a well equipped kitchen. The bed is comfortable and shower is great. Kim and Angus are the ideal hosts, available if you need them with extra logs for the fire and recommended walks but give you the space for privacy. We visited back in 2016 when the property was quite newly converted and we were so impressed with how well maintained everything is as it still feels very new. We have visited approximately 20 cottages around wales always looking for a beautiful retreat away from the city and this one is still our favourite. Although I always try to offer a balanced review, it would be impossible to find a negative… it’s like a little piece of heaven on earth! Pics do not do it justice!!

Couldn’t recommend Beehive Cottage enough. Stunning location with beautiful views. Everything we could possibly need provided. Thank you to Kim and Angus for being such great hosts, very friendly and accommodating. We hope to come back in future.

What a fabulous little house That had everything you could want. In a small but beautiful village.
The owners, Kym and Angus, were genuinely lovely people who would do anything to try and help you enjoy your holiday. We particularly liked the little touches of welcome pack, basic condiments, cleaning items and toiletries all being included.
Hoping to go back in the spring 2021. Garden space is fabby and if you loves nature and bees you will love this house. Amazing energy.

Absolutely beautiful cottage. We stayed here for our anniversary and it was the most wonderful weekend. The cottage was spotless and cozy, kitchen was well kitted out, hot tub was wonderful and very private.. nothing better having some bubbly under the stars.
Breath taking view to wake up to.
Our hosts were the most welcoming, lovely people, even had home made bread and scones for our arrival.
Great area, really recommend the Dinorben arms for a bite to eat. It was only a 15 minute walk from the cottage or 5 min drive.
We will definitely be coming back in the future!
