    "Incredibly beautiful, peaceful place."

    As previous reviews have stated. Everything had been thought through with care and attention to detail . What a wonderful setting to sit back relax and re-charge your batteries. Amazing woodland walk for humans and four legged friends alike. Chris has put so much into making the walk, not only easy to follow with signposts and different coloured routes. But boardwalks to keep feet dry in boggy areas and places to just sit and enjoy. I loved the natural moss carpets everywhere. Trees and ferns. Keeping it cool and shaded. Particularly as we had intense heat during our stay. No complaints about that. The shepherd huts are just gorgeous! We will most definitely be returning, what a gorgeous place. Also an extra thank-you for allowing us at very short notice to book an extra night while we were there. I know cleaners had to be juggled. So much appreciation to all. Thank you so much Chris and Fern for a truly beautiful stay. And for making us feel so welcome. Scott, Jan and Summer. Xx (Bedwen June 2025)

    Thank you so much for your amazing review Scott and Jan and we loved having you to stay along with the gorgeous Summer. We really appreciate you choosing us for your holiday and look forward very much to welcoming you all back in the future. X Property Owner

    "Absolutely perfect - I stayed here with my two dogs for a week and it was the most relaxing holiday I've had in years - Chris and Fern have thought of everything and more, the shepherds hut is so beautiful and comfortable, the generous outdoor space was secure for my hounds and offered a lot of variety for sitting out in the peaceful surroundings - the woodland walk became our daily ritual and really set us up for the day."

    It ticked all my boxes and more and I intend to return before the year is out!

    Thank you Clare for your lovely review. Chris and I really appreciate it and we’re so glad you and the adorable Jess and Bramble enjoyed your holiday in Bedwen. We look forward very much to seeing you all again in the future. Property Owner

    "From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations."

    The hut was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and stocked with thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. The attention to detail did not go unnoticed. The location was perfect: peaceful and scenic, yet close enough to enjoy local attractions, dining, and activities. We especially loved all the nearby beaches and towns to explore. Our hosts were incredibly responsive, kind, and welcoming. Communication was seamless, and they went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable stay. We’re already looking forward to returning and will absolutely recommend this gem to our friends and family. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

    The owners have thought of everything to ensure their clients have a truly relaxing break. A lovely welcome pack on arrival, super comfy king size bed. Nice toiletries in the shower room. Garden furniture to sit outside. We had very nice weather and used the garden a lot and also enjoyed the woodland walk which they have mapped out on their land. We will definitely book again!

    "We had a wonderful few days stays at Bedwen which exceeded our expectations."

    The owner Chris was very helpful and had obviously put his heart and soul into this venture. On arrival we had a very generous welcome hamper and even the outside furniture/fire pit etc was outside ready for us (very impressive for February!). The hut was super cosy, clean and welcoming. The location was so peaceful and calm. Waking up seeing horses was a bonus. Chris has also spent so much effort in creating an enchanting woodland walk (a few different coloured distance markers are clearly signposted) which was a joy to walk around.

    "We thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay at Bedwen Shepherd's Hut for our wedding anniversary."

    The hut was impeccably clean and equipped with everything we needed. Our dog, Bailey, loved exploring on the woodland walk. Chris, the owner, was incredibly welcoming throughout our visit. Bedwen is situated in a stunning part of Wales, with plenty of activities in the surrounding area. A visit to Cardigan Coastal Farm is highly recommended. After a day of exploration, we loved returning to roast marshmallows by the fire pit. Thank you xx
