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.

A Perfect Welsh Countryside EscapeWe had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage in the heart of the Welsh countryside. The views were absolutely breathtaking — rolling hills, peaceful fields, and the kind of scenery that instantly makes you slow down and breathe a little deeper.The cottage itself was spotless, cosy, and thoughtfully prepared, with everything we needed for a relaxing break. Waking up to the sunrise over the hills and ending the day with quiet evenings by the fire made our stay truly special.If you’re looking for tranquillity, comfort, and stunning natural beauty, this cottage is an absolute gem. We can’t recommend it highly enough and can’t wait to return.

We had a lovely week at Beehive Cottage. It is clean, comfortable and very well-equipped, both inside and outside. The location is great with the choice of walks from the cottage or places to visit within a reasonably short drive. Local pub serves lovely food. Beehive Cottage owners are very welcoming and considerate hosts. We plan to return!
