A shepherd's hut for two.
A LITTLE PLACE TO STAY, WITH PLENTY OF SPACE AROUND IT.
Our shepherd’s hut sits within the working farm at Plas Uchaf, beside the historic walled garden and overlooking the pond.
Made for two, the hut has a compact kitchen, ensuite shower room, underfloor heating, an electric log burner, WiFi, books and games, and everything you need for a comfortable stay.
Outside, there’s a private seating area surrounded by wildflowers and raised beds, with local walks nearby and countryside to explore.
You’ll also have access to the 17th-century walled garden, ancient woodland paths, wildflower meadows and orchard.
The hut is private and peaceful, but it is very much part of a working farm. There may be sheep in the neighbouring fields, tractors passing by, or the occasional peacock making its presence known.
A stay at Plas Uchaf is as much about the place around the hut as the hut itself.
YOUR OWN LITTLE SPACE
Everything you need for a comfortable stay.
Our handcrafted shepherd's hut combines character with the practical comforts of home. There's a double bed, a compact kitchenette and an ensuite shower room, with underfloor heating to keep things comfortable throughout the year.
Settle in with a book, make a cup of tea, or simply enjoy having a place of your own within the landscape of Plas Uchaf.

OUTDOORS AT PLAS UCHAF
Room to roam, whatever the weather.
Step outside to your own seating area, with the farm pond nearby and the wider landscape of Plas Uchaf all around you.
On dry days, light the firepit or explore the orchard, historic walled garden and surrounding grounds. When the Welsh weather has other plans, take a cup of tea into the greenhouse or head to the tractor shed for a game of table tennis.
The hut offers a private place to return to, within a working Welsh hill farm that has been cared for by our family for generations.

GUEST EXPERIENCES
"As keen shepherd hut goers, Kerrie's hut is by far our favourite that we've stayed in! The hut is incredibly thoughtfully presented, with so many lovely touches - a Welsh welcome basket, local toiletries, logs & starters, a welcome pack guide book, picnic baskets & blankets, to name but a few! Everything is of high quality and design, and made the hut feel very comfortable - a peaceful home away from home! The grounds, like the walled garden, greenhouse, and firepit, mean that you could absolutely enjoy this hut any season of the year, especially as the hut has underfloor heating and an electric log heater to keep you cosy. Kerrie was super communicative, friendly and helpful, and we really got the sense that the hut is a labour of love done out of enjoyment rather than purely for profit. We really were blown away by our stay, and will look forward to returning soon!" Grace
"Such a lovely air bnb, as described and outdoes expectations. The shepherds hut is stunning and well equipped with everything you need. The surrounding was very quiet and peaceful. The peacocks and peahens were lovely, the peahens even joined us in the green house for shelter from the rain and fell asleep. Kerrie was lovely, brilliant communication. Would definitely recommend staying here if you’re looking for a place to unwind." Harley
"Absolutely gorgeous! Perfect locations for a beautiful hut! Gorgeous throughout and the attention to detail didn’t go unnoticed, every detail had clearly been thought of. We had a lovely few days away! The bed was so comfy… and lovely to go away to proper pillows and a lovely duvet!
We’d love to come back in the winter and experience a nice cosy getaway!
Thank you so much for a perfect break!" Soph

A year at Plas Uchaf.
01 · Spring
New life on the farm
Daffodils brighten the garden, the days grow longer and lambing begins on the farm from early April.
02 · Summer
The garden in bloom
The historic walled garden comes into its own, with flowers, longer days and evenings to enjoy outdoors.
Wander through the garden and orchard, sit outside with a drink, or head to the tractor shed for a game of table tennis.
03 · Autumn
Changing colours & cooler days
As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, the farm takes on a different character.
Come back from a walk to a warm hut, dry your boots in the tractor shed, or take a cup of tea and a book into the greenhouse when the rain arrives.
04 · Winter
A warm base
Frost, winter rain and bare branches bring their own atmosphere to the landscape.
Inside, underfloor heating and the electric log-burner-style heater make the hut a comfortable place to return to.
On wet days, settle into the greenhouse with a hot chocolate or enjoy a game of table tennis.
Make a stay of it.
Spend a few days at Plas Uchaf and there’s more to discover than the hut itself. Explore the walled garden, wander through the orchard and woodland, or head out to the hills and historic places of North Wales.
Our shepherd’s hut was created as part of the continuing story of this farm. Each stay helps support the care of the historic house, garden and surrounding landscape.
With thanks to our supporters
The development of our shepherd’s hut was made possible in part by funding from the Clocaenog Forest Wind Farm Fund. Their support has helped us develop a small-scale rural tourism offering at Plas Uchaf, with income contributing towards the ongoing care and restoration of our historic farmstead and its landscape.
