Llethr - Shepherds Hut Reviews

Amazing shepherd's hut, has everything you need for a perfect week away. The views and surrounding areas are magical. The warm welcome was much appreciated. If you want a true escape from modern life , then this is the place. Close enough to all the things north Wales has to offer but truly off the beaten track and away from the chaos. We will definitely be back. Many thanks

Peter Graham

Beautiful location which was just right for getting away from life. Lovely owner, really friendly and helpful. great to watch someone else doing work down at the farm. we are already recommending this location to our friends. just sorry we had to leave. thankyou

Katherine

The shepherds hut is beautiful. Absolutely spotless and had everything and more that you could want Set in the most stunning and idyllic location The family are lovely and very welcoming We hope to return very soon and will be recommending them to our friends and family

Hannah

Wow what a place to stay its honestly so beautiful and quiet. Yes its out in the sticks but it is just so worth it. The most friendliest hosts nothing was too much trouble. I love Wales and this place will not disappoint if you want a relaxing stay away from it all. Fab having a hot tub taking in the views. All the equipment you could need for the perfect stay. Im sure we will be back in the future!

Excellent stay. Peace and quiet in a very splendid location. I was surprise at how good the WiFi is... quick with no drop outs. I could watch live football with no problems. Listed directions are wrong on Sat Nav and what3words miles off. The right three words, a simple process, would make the huts far easier to find!

The shepherd hut is located in a quite stunning location with amazing views and rewarding walks on your doorstep. Hut has everything that you require and is very comfortable.

Jennifer

Great shepherds hut ideal for 2 people with all the mod cons, loved the wood fired hot tub and fire pit. Very scenic with good walks right on the door step, good pub in the village for food and drinks a few miles away, the shepherds hut is quite remote but has everything you need.

Jasmine

We stayed in this Shepherd's Hut on our MiniMoon after just getting married and it was the perfect getaway to switch off and relax. The views are absolutely stunning. The hut was really clean and provided everything you would need for your stay. Eleri and Gwyn are amazing hosts, informing us about the local area and letting us see the lambs! We would love to come back and visit again in the future.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The shepherds hut is amazing and is exactly as listed online. The guest book was really helpful for learning information about the local area and where things are kept in the hut, etc. Even in January, despite not using the hottub, we used all facilities and the log fire kept us so warm in the evenings. The views are amazing, and we found this a good location for driving to climb Snowdon in the early hours of the morning. The local town has a couple of pubs for the evening and petrol stations and a little food shop if you need to get food whilst on your stay. The hosts were lovely! Have nothing bad to say or any improvements it was great and we are so happy we booked to stay here thank you!

Great hosts the shepherds hut was perfect . We will be defiantly be back

Absolutely amazing stay! Cosy, lovely cabin with breath taking views to wake up to each morning! We had the best bedroom in the world. The hosts were so so caring and helpful during our stay, making our stay extremely relaxing. We enjoyed firing up the hot tub each evening and the lovely walks in the area, 1010 would recommend this as a getaway! We really enjoyed ourselves here xx

Alison

Llethr and its location were stunning. The hosts had thought of everything, and were lovely. Accommodation was perfect, extremely clean, well looked after and comfortable. The distance to the pub is a gorgeous 7km walk over stunning scenery, and there was plenty of other walks around to with a map in accommodation to check out. We later enjoyed a lovely soak in the woodfired hot tub. We will certainly be revisiting this place, and would highly recommend others to.

Isabel

We had an absolutely magical weekend away in our shepherd's hut. The owner was so lovely and recommended us a brilliant walk across Rhinog Fach just opposite the hut, which was the perfect way to spend our 10 year wedding anniversary! If you want peace and quiet then this is the place for you, the hot tub under the stars was amazing. One thing for future guests, be sure to do a food shop or or researchbook restaurants ahead as you are genuinely a 15 minute drive from the village!

Amazing accommodation and the hosts were lovely and welcoming

Louise

Such a wonderful location and lovely place, we really enjoyed getting the hot tub fired up each evening, watching wildlife watching a barn owl from the hot tub was a real treat! , the star gazing and the lovely walking on the doorstep. The shepherds hut was well equipped, and had everything we needed. Lots to do around, just a fab place to stay!

We had a fantastic stay at the shepherd hut this weekend. The views surrounding the property are breathtaking and the hut itself is comfortable and clean. The hot tub is wood fired and all the wood, kindling and matches are provided. There is an outside stovebbq pit which is a nice addition to book breakfast and dinner outside too. I couldnt fault this place , we had such a nice time and the hosts are welcoming and super friendly. My only tip would be to bring bug spray or repellent. I came home with lots of bites which cant be helped but wish I had taken some spray with me!

Gorgeous hut set in the most beautiful location. The owner was kind enough to greet us with a warm welcome as we arrived, plus the additional touch of a bottle of wine and some welsh cakes was lovely. Both owners were very kind, attentive and provided us with plenty of information regarding the local area. The hut itself catered for everything that youd need for a break away and it is evident from the finishing touches that the owners have put there heart and soul into the hut to make it a very special place.

Wonderful holiday property located in the beautiful national park region of Wales nestled amongst the Rhinogydd mountain range absolutely stunning views, especially for those interested in hill walking and exploring the mountains, which are literally on your doorstep. This location has much to offer any type of holiday maker even during the rainy periods from those wanting to be 'off grid' to those wanting to explore further by visiting various heritage sites, such as castles, travelling in style on real steam railways, walking on the beach or participating in more adventurous activities at Zip World. The owners are very friendly, attentive and quick to respond to any questions or issues you may have overall, a fantastic holiday destination during which we explored everything that Wales has to offer highly recommended.

Michelle

What a stunning place! Very friendly, helpful people! It was exactly what we were looking for, nestled in the mountains. The bed was really comfortable, and it was cosy and warm. We didn't feel cold at any point. We have shared and recommended it to our friends and family, and we will definitely be back .

Courtney

We met Eleri on the day of arrival and she was so welcoming and lovely. The Hut itself was beautiful and very clean! We enjoyed our much needed weekend and the hot tub was very easy to use after her showing us what to do. Me and Connor would definitely return one day. There was complimentary wine and Welsh cakes to make the experience even better. Very peaceful and quiet place!

Oliver

Perfect hosts, perfect location.

We booked for 3 nights but I wish it was 3 weeks! We booked a little time away for our 10 year anniversary and being in the hut and being able to lock away the world for 3 days is the best thing we have ever done. We actually managed to spend quality time together away for day to day life. The location was breathtaking and the Shepards hut is everything you could ask for, already looking forward to going back next year Jay

Danielle

This place will take some beating it really is out of this world! We have visited many places but this by far was the most breathtaking. The attention to detail, the well made Shepards huts and the welcoming hearts of the owners make it even more special! Thank you so much for sharing your farm and land with the world as its just so beautiful. We feel so lucky and will definitely be retuning in the future. A huge thank you and we will see you soon

Samantha

The most relaxing week imaginable, a real escape in a cosy, clean and beautiful Shepherds Hut, owned by a truly lovely family, who were very welcoming and informative. Were really grateful that they have chosen to share this beautiful part of the world. Thank you!

Azizur

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights for our anniversary and it was incredible. The beautiful Shepherds hut was as it was described in the listing but the view was just perfect. An ideal stay for avid walkers, star gazers whilst in the hot tub of course! or even just somewhere to relax with your loved one. Definitely will be returning! Thank you Eleri&Gwyndaf.

The hut is gorgeous! Loved all of the little details and how much thought had gone into making use of the space. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you!

Matthew

The shepherd's hut was beautiful, the owners were kind and welcoming, everything was clean and tidy and the surroundings were beautiful will be coming back here again in the near future.

Dominika

We had a wonderful time, a beautiful place with amazing views and calming silence. Very friendly and helpful owners.

Taylor

We celebrated our 30th Wedding anniversary here and wouldn't change anything. We received accurate directions, were kept fully informed and received the warmest welcome from Eleri. Her knowledge about the history of the farmhouse and her passion for her surroundings is evident when speaking to her. Everything was just perfect. A huge thank you for sharing the beautiful location.

Absolutely stunning place to stay. Just what we were looking for. The hut was fantastic and the views to match. We will definitely go back

Frances

My husband and I were taken aback by the beauty of the area and the property itself. Perfect for those who want to get away from it all but hate the idea of camping. We definitely will be coming back.

Samantha

Absolutely beautiful shepherds hut. Amazing area. The owners were so so so nice very friendly. We would highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Edward

My wife and I had a wonderful stay in a shepherds hut. Very cosy, very clean and an amazing location. The view was breathtaking and interesting walks right on the door step.

This beautiful shepherds hut is perfect for a couple who want a semi rural get away. The hut is comfortable well equipped with most things but if you need anything the hosts Gwyndaf & Eleri, are very helpful. We wished we couldve stayed longer!

Super place to stay. In a wonderful location. If you are craving peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle this is the place to be. Very welcoming owners, had plenty of time to talk to us and help us settle into the area. Bottle of wine and welsh cakes was a lovely touch and much appreciated after a long journey. Shepard's hut was immaculate and well stocked with everything you need. Will definitely be visiting again.

Ashleigh

I cannot recommend this absolutely beautiful location enough! Eleri the owner met us on arrival with such open arms as she guided us around the Shepard Hut. Accommodation was absolutely spotless with such a homely feeling and Eleri provided us some red wine and welsh cakes, so sweet! The photos really dont give this place enough credit the views and mountains were beyond breathtaking! My partner and I enjoyed our wine in the hot tub taking in the views, as it went dark we watched the stars came out. We thank you and cannot wait to see you again next year!

We had such a fantastic stay! The shepherd hut was incredibly cosy and clean, with everything you could need for a weekend away. We loved the hot tub and cooking with the fire pit. We didn't want to leave it was in such a beautiful location. Fab hosts who were extremely helpful and friendly.

Perfect ! Wonderful location, beautiful hut, everything thought of to make a wonderful holiday ! Friendly owners, very helpful, highly recommended.

Fantastic location, so peaceful. Accommodation was spotless, hot tub was a real treat, Eleri even stoked it up for us while we were out to make sure it was ready for our return. Would go back in a heartbeat.

Lovely little hut, very luxurious and amazing views. A beautiful location and a great holiday.
