About this property

For a stay you will never forget, Bodorgan Railway House is the perfect place. This historic former public house has been immaculately converted, maintaining its former glory, traditions and atmosphere. Located directly opposite Bodorgan railway station on the island of Anglesey and set amongst an acre of mature gardens and grounds, this fabulous holiday home can host up to twenty-four guests across its ten bedrooms.

Throughout the renovations, modern amenities and touches of luxury have been planted among the charm and character of the building. A sleek kitchen, stylish dining area, outdoor barbecue and hot tub are just a few of the updates that make a stay here feel more lavish and special.

As you walk in the original entrance to the pub, a bright and spacious hallway welcomes you in. With 160 years of character to show, every nook and cranny of the building has something to say, and in the hallway, the grand staircase steels the attention! This floor offers useful storage space, a cosy reading nook and the fabulous, modernised kitchen with a breakfast diner. With floor-to-ceiling doors, the kitchen opens to the decking outside, with a barbecue and hot tub sure to delight all of your guests.

On the first floor you will find the main entertaining spaces. To one side is the formal dining room which can be set for all twenty-four guests, ideal for special occasions and big celebrations. Opposite the dining room is the beating heart of this building, the lovingly restored original bar room, offering a fully functioning pub-style bar which can be stocked by the team in advance of your stay if requested. This remarkable room has in-built window bench seating, bar stools, working beer pumps, drinks fridges, log burner, and Sky TV, so you pick who your landlord is and start pulling pints and entertaining in this fantastic space.

The top two floors of the building offer ten good-sized bedrooms. Muted tones and simple styling let the character of the building continue to shine through in every space, with comfy beds and plenty of storage. The second floor has seven bedrooms, with two en-suites and two-family bathrooms. In the attic, there are three bedrooms and another family bathroom; the former publicans’ living quarters.

Completely unique and full of hidden delights, Bodorgan Railway House is a brilliant choice for large family get-togethers and groups of friends that want to explore Anglesey.

Bodorgan Railway House is located directly opposite Bodorgan railway station on the island of Anglesey and set amongst an acre of mature gardens and grounds. A countryside location with serene views across rural farmland, this is the perfect choice for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle, with long walks, great pubs and lovely beaches to explore. Full of historic spots and beautiful nature, Anglesey is an island off the north-west coast of Wales. The island can be accessed by train, or the 19th-century Menai Suspension Bridge and the Britannia Bridge, which was rebuilt in the 20th century. 

Bodorgan itself is a historic village in southwest Anglesey. Situated three miles from the nearest beach, and a short drive from larger villages, it is a great location for exploring the area. For fresh produce and store cupboard essentials, there is a great corner shop in the village you can utilise. The village’s Grade II listed railway station located directly opposite the Inn, makes travelling as easy as possible. Local trains cross the Anglesey Island line with onward connections to Chester, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham and beyond.

The beaches in this area are lovely to visit all year round. Aberffraw beach is just a five-minute drive away, as well as the popular resort of Rhosneigr and its beautiful beach which can be reached within ten-minutes. Rhosneigr beach is great for swimming, kite surfing, paddle-boarding and has plenty of restaurants and pubs where you can get all the refreshments you might need!

Newborough Forest is another great area to visit, about five kilometres south-east of Bodorgan. An rspb reserve, Newborough offers endless walks, with birdwatching and long sandy beaches where you can spend the whole day relaxing.

    Me and my family of 17 had such an amazing time in the accommodation. The second floor bar area is perfect! Sooo many lovely spaces that I didn’t know which one I wanted to spend my time in more! Great for all types of weekends!

    What a brilliant stay we had at Bodorgan Railway House! As a group of 16 adults, 2 children, 2 toddlers and 1 baby (plus furry friends) there was ample space for us all to spread out, relax and enjoy the beautiful house and it’s surroundings. We were really impressed with all the facilities and small touches that the owners have thought of that made our trip as easy and enjoyable as possible. From the soft play equipment, toys and highchairs for the younger members of our party to the very well equipped kitchen and lovely toiletries in each bathroom. The house was spotlessly clean and beds/linen very comfortable. All the bedrooms and bathrooms were great sizes and the ‘pub’ inside the house was a real hit, a really lovely original feature! Jon and the team were superb and always responded extremely quickly before we arrived as well as when we were there. A really great place with lots of wow factor, would highly recommend.

    Perfect stay for a birthday weekend. Absolutely loved the bar and the host provided kegs. Beds were super comfy and the house had everything we needed. Already looking to book again!
