Review of Bodfan
Reviews from our community
4 reviews We had a super time at Bofan. There was plenty of room for us: 2 couples, 2 grannies, 2 kids and 3 dogs. Gillian was so helpful, efficient and welcoming right from the enquiry to arriving. We've stayed in other houses as a group and usually find although there is enough bedrooms there isn't that much space, particularly in the lounge. Not so at Bodfan, there was plenty of room and the sitting room is comfortable for us all to sit around in front of the lovely stove. We only had the stove lit 2 nights though as we were blessed with fantastic sunny weather. Again, Bodfan was very well equipped for both with plenty of comfortable deck chairs and loungers. Although we has good weather the evenings were a little chilly and Bodfan is very well heated and we were all cosy. The gardens are really lovely and with the field in front of the house available to us the dogs raced around it having the time of their lives. The house is in a quiet location but surrounded with trees and birds and with supper views over the Snowden. Although we originally wanted to be near the coast we found that Bodfan was the better choice as it is well placed for everywhere, so our trips to the north coast or Beaumaris were easy. Overall, it was a well equipped, comfortable and peaceful location and we definitely want to go back.

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Bodfan. The weather wasn't kind, but the house warm and welcome retreat. Gillian has been warm and welcoming from enquiry stage and throughout our stay.
The grounds are tranquil, views stunning and our family (including five dogs) have thoroughly enjoyed our break.
We feel refreshed and relaxed and will definitely be back.

3 reviews Three generations of our family have just spent a fantastic week at Bodfan. The farmhouse is perfect for a large family group, sleeping 8 comfortably. Lovely spacious rooms, well equipped kitchen and well stocked library were all greatly appreciated. The house is huge with plenty of room to have a quiet time if needed or play games together on the large tables. Gillian, the owner, lives close by and is such a lovely friendly lady, her dog Isis equally so! Isis called for our springer spaniel regularly and they had a great time romping around the garden and the huge field in front of the house - real doggy paradise! We also booked a meal for the night of our arrival with Denise(via holiday contact details) which was absolutely delicious and really appreciated - the last thing you want to do on arrival is go searching for shops or restaurants when you arrive. Lasagne, garlic bread, jacket potatoes, salad and a lovely dessert were waiting for us on arrival - just perfect! I can't recommend this farmhouse enough, it was absolutely perfect and we will certainly be back as soon as possible.

We have just returned from a great week's break at Bodfan. What a wonderful place for all ages.
The farmhouse is so spacious and well equipped. All the bedrooms were of a decent size and comfortable. There was ample comfortable seating for everyone.
The owner is very welcoming and always at hand though not interfering in any way.
The grandchildren loved the garden with plenty of space for playing.
The location is ideal as is so central and makes it easy to reach any part of the island.

From the moment we arrived at Bodfan I knew we were in for a treat. From the lovely gardens to the homely cottage it all set our holiday off on the right foot. Gillian is the perfect host who looked after us well. The cottage is well stocked with essentials and brilliant for extended family holidays. There were 7 of us and it didn't feel like we were getting in the way of each other. My children loved the horses the geese and isis the dog. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you Gillian. Hopefully will get to come back one day.

A tremendously good space for families and for those with dogs. Secure garden and field are a huge bonus. The house is more than adequately furnished with a good supply of equipment for small children.
The owner is delightful and enormously helpful.
There is no doubt that all members of our party would like to return particularly as this is a central base for exploring Anglesey.

We stayed at Bodfan because of it's great reviews and were not disappointed.
It is a large comfortable farmhouse with a great garden and paddock for energetic dogs.
The welcome pack provided by the owner Gilliain most appreciated.
The beds are comfortable and made for a relaxing sleep in peaceful surroundings.
The farmhouse is only 10 minutes drive from great beaches will allow dogs.
We would like to than Gillian and Isis her very friendly whippit for their great hospitality.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and already planning our next visit.
