“The cottage is at the end of a track so very quiet but a good location to visit anywhere on Anglesey.”

It has an "old fashioned " and cosy feel. The house has everything you need its very well equipped. Margaret is very helpful a real mine of info she's about most days but not intrusive. We absolutely loved it.

“Ty Fferm Bodlasan is in a fabulous location…but the cottage itself needs updating, decluttering and a good clean……there were only two of us but there was so much clutter in the dinning room we couldn’t use the table…I appreciate the cottage is very old and that was one of the reasons we booked it ,but sadly it was very disappointing and needs some work.”

Adina August 2024

“We had a great time, it's the 2nd year we have visited and it won't be the last.”

The views are amazing and being able to let the grandchildren run around without worry was priceless. Close to shops and beaches but we were happy to spend most of the time at the house.

Sally July 2024

“We spent a wonderful week at this beautiful location and still now a week after we have been home I sit back and smile every time someone asks how was your holiday.”

It truly is a stunning location with the best Cosy feel that starts the minute you arrive. We met the owner and family and loved all the places that was recommended for us to visit. The welcome on the first day with the welcome back was a lovely touch and the whole family loved every room, from playing the piano to chilling in front of the fire. The kitchen was full with everything you needed and more, I wanted to take the bed home as it was so comfortable. Myself husband and 3 teenagers felt so incredibly relaxed and would highly recommend this to anyone. Thank you for making our week away so special and giving us some precious memories.

“The pictures don't do the cottage justice, it's absolutely beautiful and where it is , is so beautiful.”

We are thankfull that we had great weather , which was a added bonus. The views and breath taking and the it's so nice for my two kids who are autistic to just feel free and run around without any worry. The cottage it self was stunning and had everything we needed . We all had a wonderful time, so much we didn't want to leave. However we are coming back next year. Margaret and alwen are lovely and we especially like our chats with Margaret she made us feel part of the family . My kids highlight was seeing if the chickens had been let out, they loved the chickens so much they even named them. We had our first night back at our home and we hated all the noise, it's so busy and hectic. The cottage is a little haven where you can relax and be comfortable.

“Our second visit to this property and we plan to visit again next year.”

The walk down to the beach might have been very muddy after all the rain (since October!), but well worth it. Spacious sitting rooms and bedrooms. Handy for anywhere on the island, but we just enjoyed the peace and quiet most.

- Penelope, March 2024
Steven December 2023

“We absolutely loved this cottage.”

Nice and remote with amazing views across to Holyhead Harbour. Cottage was beautifully kept and was extremely cosy in the living room with the fire going on a cold January night. We will definitely be staying again

“We were very lucky with the weather which made our stay.”

Whilst the property has unique character we did feel the property needs a lot of TLC, especially when comparing living room with the kitchen and dining room. Dining room was very uncomfortable to sit at, and very tight seating area. Kitchen has a lot of equipment beyond use (frying pans rusty,plated and cups chipped, utensils rusty / damaged, door from kitchen to dining room could not be closed as did not latch to properly. Beds were very uncomfortable - some new mattresses would improve them. Shower leaked badly in the bathroom and lots of mould. Needs to be a warning on the description about the extremely low roof areas as some door frames had no padding and I personally made my head bleed 3 times, if you have a bad back this may be worth a miss as bending a lot. Think the fire provisions on arrival were sparse, thankfully we brought our own logs too. Area was very secluded which was great, and muddy track to beach was good - bring your wellies though! Finally thanks for returning a coat I left in the cottage.

- Mark, October 2023
Trevor September 2023

“It was a super location to get away from it all and the owners were really helpful and friendly.”

Comfortable and in a very tranquil spot with stunning views across the bay and well located to get round the many sites of Anglesey with the village shop and pub only a mile away and Holyhead nearby. Good location for accessing the beaches along this part of the coast and walking on the coastal path around Anglesey

- Trevor, September 2023
Adina August 2023

“Beautiful setting, so peaceful.”

The boys were able to run round without worry. Made to feel very welcome and the boys loved the chickens. Everything else was superb.

- Adina, August 2023
Richard July 2023

“The property was in need of a good clean there was a lot of things that needed maintenance which we did point out to the owner.”

We had a large infestation of flying ants in the hallway which we dealt with then an infestation of beetles the owner said it was because it's an old house. The toaster only has two slots working which we reported., the kitchen drawer the front kept coming off which we tried to glue back on the washing line was broken and were told it was only a couple of weeks old but this didn't help us so we got a washing line ourselves as it was the only way to dry clothes. The bath leaked so did not use . The area was lovely and great for walking Margaret was very nice we met her every day when she came to feed the chickens and let the dog out for a walk. She seemed to know about the problems and said they had changed the cleaner

“We enjoyed a lovely family holiday at Ty Fferm Bodlasan”

Jo-ann June 2023

“We had a magical stay.”

Really felt like a home from home and had everything we needed. My daughter (nearly 2) absolutely loved the run of the garden and the little wendy house and sand pit outside. Such a safe space for her to play in. We walked down to the beach everyday (5mins down a beautiful wild flower path) and explored Anglesey by car easily from this spot. The owners were really welcoming and informative. Such a wonderful place to stay. We definitely plan to visit again soon.

- Jo-ann, June 2023
Linnhe April 2023

“We’ve had the most wonderful stay at this very beautiful cottage .”

We had two toddlers under three and it was a great property and garden to explore with them. Because this is a period property the owners were not able to fit stair gates as advertised - this wasn’t an issue for us - but something to bear in mind if you have a really little toddler. The owners are so welcoming and it’s a beautiful location. Highly recommend!

- Linnhe, April 2023
Warren April 2023

“Well what a fantastic place home from home, everything you would need to have a ...”

Well what a fantastic place home from home, everything you would need to have a stress free holiday, the walk to the beach is five minutes, the welcome basket was a surprise and that makes you feel special, i would go back in a heartbeat, great place to go sight seeing from, great garden if you have kids can sleep 6, wildlife in abundance and owners are very very nice, if you want pure relaxation then this is the place to go, love it xx

- Warren, April 2023
Anne April 2023

“Beautiful cottage set n stunning surroundings.”

The Owens were very welcoming and the hamper was greatly appreciated. We had a fantastic holiday and will definitely be back. Diolch.

- Anne, April 2023
Penelope March 2023

“A lovely location, with a glorious view, just a short walk to the beach.”

Just a few minutes drive away from many Anglesey attractions. Spacious sitting rooms.

- Penelope, March 2023
Yvette September 2022

“Fantastic property and a true home from home experience.”

There is nothing fake or pretentious about the property. We all loved our stay here from age 2 to 53. There was everything we needed in the kitchen and a nice touch with the welcome hamper. There were plenty of toys for little ones inside and out as well as an array of dvds. The views are simply stunning. The owners were lovely and friendly. We would stay again in a heartbeat and happily recommend to friends and family. Please don't change a thing about this property it was fantastic.

- Yvette, September 2022
Wendy July 2022

“We had a really lovely family get together in this homely and surprisingly spacious cottage.”

Archie the toddler had the benefit of a garden which he does not at home and we were able to thoroughly enjoy family time with both Archie and 8 week old Oscar which we were very sadly unable to with Archie due to the lockdown in 2020 when he was born. We loved the wonderful views of Holyhead which were ever changing and the toing and froing of the ferries. We went swimming at Treaddur, Church Bay and conveniently down the track from Bodlasan Farm at Llanfachraeth.The beach in the late evening is superb with a setting sun, the cries of the curlews, the heron fishing on the foreshore and the tooting of owls on the way back. We found the Owen family utterly kind and friendly, a lovely hamper of goodies was left for our arrival including eggs from the chickens. There are ample places to visit, too many for just one week! We went to NT Plas Newydd, a trip to Puffin Island, Benllech Beach leading to beautiful Red Wharf Bay. A great place to leave worldly problems behind just for a week and share the clearly treasured childhood home of the owners.

- Wendy, July 2022
Susan June 2022

“This is the third time we have visited Bodlasan Fawr and again it didn’t disappoint, it is a comfortable home from home set in a lovely location.”

The house was lovely and had everything we required for a great holiday. The Owen family are very friendly and we enjoyed our morning chats. This was my Granddaughter’s first holiday and she especially loved the chickens and sheep, so all in all a great time was had by all.

- Susan, June 2022
Pamela May 2022

“Brilliant cottage in a fantastic location.”

Cottage was well equipped and could not fault anything. Hosts were friendly and helpful, ensuring everything was ok. Definitely one of the best holiday cottages we have visited and would definitely recommend it if you like being away from it all. Would love to go back again soon. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

- Pamela, May 2022
Sarah April 2022

“Lovely cottage in beautiful location.”

We had a great holiday here and will definitely try to come back again. The owners are friendly and the place was nice and clean. The Wi-Fi was slow, which I think might be due to the remote location, but 4G had strong signal, which was good.

- Sarah, April 2022
Anne April 2022

“This farmhouse is beautiful, well equipped, and set in stunning surroundings with a short private track down to the beach which has outstanding views.”

The owners are very friendly, welcoming and helpful - thank you for the welcome hamper, fresh eggs and wine - it was very much appreciated. We loved the chickens coming to say hello every morning and also Jac, the collie too. We would highly recommend this property and hope to stay again . Massive thanks to the owners for making our stay so memorable.

- Anne, April 2022
Julie March 2022

“The farmhouse was in a great location.”

Main living room needs an extra radiator found it quite cold in the evenings and it could do with a new sofa in there the black sofa was a bit passed its best and very low. Kitchen is well kitted out plenty of pans plates cups etc. Bedrooms were big and spacious. The owner was a lovely accommodating man any issues were dealt with immediately all in all yes I would stay there again. The website need updating because it doesn't provide towels anymore.

- Julie, March 2022
Elizabeth October 2021

“We had a brilliant stay, thank you.”

It was a great base to explore Anglesey and so quiet! Very comfortable and cosy. Although if you want to a short walk to a local pub that is quite tricky, it's probably more accurate to say the local pub is over a mile away.

- Elizabeth, October 2021
Susan September 2021

“This was our second visit to Ty Fferm Bodlasan and it certainly didn’t disappoint it was just as we remembered , lovely comfortable house ,fabulous location, fantastic hosts , home from home really relaxing.”

Anglesey itself has something for everyone and the beaches are some of the best We have visited , will definitely be back. Sue & John

- Susan, September 2021
Norma September 2021

“This is a lovely farmhouse, beautifully renovated to make a comfortable holiday home, and hosted by a lovely family.”

On a working farm but in a secluded spot - only near neighbours are 5 hens in the barn and Jac, the very friendly sheepdog. We had wonderful weather so had breakfast in the garden, watching the ferries sail in and out of Holyhead. Our daughter and grandchildren walked the short distance to the almost private beach at least twice a day. They even swam! Perfect for bird-watching and star-gazing. This was our second visit and we'll be returning.

- Norma, September 2021
Carly May 2021

“Fantastic cottage in a fantastic location and wonderful family running it.”

Just returned from a weeks stay, the cottage had everything we needed and more. Beach only a few minutes away and more or less your own. Pub is very friendly with a good atmosphere local shop is well stocked and again friendly. Can't wait to return.

- Carly, May 2021
Roger May 2021

“This is an excellent property located in a fairly isolated spot, up a track approximately 1 mile from the road which was perfect for us.”

We had an excellent holiday there and would recommend it to anybody looking for a restful holiday with plenty of peace and quiet!

- Roger, May 2021
Arthur April 2021

“Bodlasan Fawr is an excellent location for those seeking an away from it all holiday.”

A warm, well equipped farmhouse in a superb location commanding superb views across Holyhead Bay. The owners are most helpful and a mine of historical information about the property and local area.

- Arthur, April 2021
Joanne April 2021

“We had such a lovely time at Ty Fferm Bodlasan.”

The cottage was fabulous. Full of character and so homely. Had all the facilities we needed. Loved the real fire in the living room and the roll top bath. Then the location, wow - just a short walk down a private track and you are on the beach. Perfect if you want to get some peace and quiet and relax. Mrs Owen was only a text away if you needed anything and was really lovely when we happened to bump into her as we were leaving. Oh and how can I not mention the five chickens! We bought some wild bird seed on our first shop and then every day they would come over and see us. Mrs Owen even gave us some eggs. Most places were still closed due to Covid restrictions so we did loads of walking including two days straight from the cottage and took picnics each day.

- Joanne, April 2021
Thomas October 2019

“We were disappointed to find a piano that was unplayable.”

We had specifically booked a house with a piano so that our children could practice during our stay. Otherwise the welcome was warm and the house met our expectations. Crockery and cutlery were not always very clean. A second toilet would have been a bonus with five people in the house.

- Thomas, October 2019
David September 2019

“Peaceful location, within easy reach of the beach.”

- David, September 2019
Steve September 2019

“The location of this old farmhouse is what makes it a standout place to stay.”

It is near to so many of the great places to visit in Anglesey but also is in a unique place on its own - 5 minutes walk along an almost private track to a good beach; a mile further down a very accessible track than other properties & the only accommodation on the farm - ensuring peace, tranquillity & privacy.

- Steve, September 2019
Andrew August 2019

“Such a beautiful farm house in absolutely stunning surroundings.”

We were made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived by the host and his daughter. We loved the addition of the farm dog Jack and the three, free range chickens. The welcome pack was just what we needed for our first night after a lovely stroll along a very quiet beach. Thank you! In the week that we stayed here, we enjoyed many a walk down the private road to the beach. The children and ourselves loved every minute of our holiday and would recommend this house to everyone: we will be back!!

- Andrew, August 2019
Jane July 2019

“Bodlasan Fawr is a beautiful and especially peaceful cottage - one of the best places we've ever stayed in.”

The cottage itself is a delight - an historic farmhouse with original features, wonderfully appointed, comfortable, beautiful bedrooms, plus all mod cons so pretty much perfect. The location itself is brilliant, a few minutes walk from the cottage door down a private country lane brings you to a delightful and deserted beach; a few minutes away in the car is Holy Island where we visited (and climbed to the top of) the spectacular South Stacks lighthouse and visited amazingly beautiful sea coves and cliff top walks and nature reserves. A fantastic holiday, we couldn't recommend it highly enough - thank you ! :o)

Noel May 2019

“What an amazing cottage this is.”

Spacious and comfortable with all the facilities we could want. An isolated, peaceful location but actually only a mile from the village and a very short walk down to the beach. The owners were friendly and very helpful.

- Noel, May 2019
Hazel April 2019

“Really friendly owners, who personally greeted us within an hour of our arrival.”

When we entered our cottage we were greeted with the lovely sight of a bottle of wine and a pack of nibbles. The sights and friendliness of every on Ynys Mon was exceptional in every way. The only working mill on Ynys Mon was being refurbished by it's new owner when we tried visiting on the Tuesday, he invited us to revisit on the Thursday/ Friday when he would open early to accommodate us. Not only did this gentleman keep his word, he gave us a private personal escort round the mill, explaining much that we would not otherwise have known. Considering he wasn't due to open until the Monday after our holiday ended, we felt really welcomed and privileged. This gentleman refused our offer of payment, until I pressed him, declaring we wanted to be his first paying customers. We will be following the progress of the mill. And this young man's hospitality really made our holiday. His name was Richard ? (I don't recall his surname - wish I did) He is a credit to Wales.

- Hazel, April 2019
Margaret March 2019

“Love the quiet and the solitude.”

Lovely farmhouse

- Margaret, March 2019
Norma October 2018

“A beautiful, cosy cottage.”

Our daughter and grandchildren loved being able to walk straight to the beach without needing transport or to cross a road. It's 'our beach' now and we'll be returning. The house is warm and comfortable with everything we needed.

- Norma, October 2018
Anthony October 2018

- Malcolm, September 2018
Karen September 2018

“Ty Fferm Bodlasan was better than we could have expected.”

The directions to the cottage were spot on, the key was exactly where it should be, the cottage was lovely and clean, warm and welcoming. A real bonus was our private track to the beach!!!!

- Karen, September 2018
Nigel September 2018

“Had a great time in a lovely cottage and would return in future.”

- Nigel, September 2018
Cathryn July 2018

“The farmhouse was located in the perfect spot.”

So close to a beach that was empty almost every day. Our children loved feeding the chickens and had use of the owner's mountain bikes to ride around. Inside the farmhouse, it was airy and spacious. We will definitely be returning!

- Cathryn, July 2018
Jane June 2018

“The hosts were very welcoming and friendly.”

The setting is beautiful in all directions. Our 2 year old grandson adored his private route to the beach, the friendly sheep dog and the hens. A very peaceful, remote yet safe setting for all generations. Spectacular views and sunsets over the sea and quiet breakfasts with views across open fields. The weather and the setting were truly spectacular. Very homely and comfortable house with plenty of space. We will definitley be returning for another family holiday soon.

- Jane, June 2018
Jacqueline May 2018

“It was a beautiful cottage in lovely tranquil location.”

Perfect for a relaxing holiday but also easy to explore the island.would definately return here.

- Jacqueline, May 2018

Our 2 and 4 year old love exploring around the farm and down the track to the beach. Great location and lovely cottage

- Dan, March 2018
David May 2017

“Lovely clean, well equipped cottage.”

Fresh clean bedding & soft fluffy towels. Nice welcome pack. Situated very close to, practically, our own private beach.

- David, May 2017
Dan May 2017

“2nd stay now and the kids still love the swing and the garden.”

Having the track down to the beach on your doorstep is a bonus. The actual cottage is well equipped and comfortable. Really enjoy the lack of noise, the feeling of space and the view across the bay is lovely. Mr Evans is really helpful and we've have another great stay.

- Dan, May 2017
Keily April 2017

“Fantastic cottage - perfect base for exploring - had everything we needed.”

- Keily, April 2017
Jennifer October 2016

“We had an amazing week here!”

It's a perfect location from a shallow sandy beach. We saw 2 dog walkers in a week, so it's quiet too. The house has everything you could need for the week and the owners are very polite and welcoming. We had a lovely little welcome pack, including the freshest eggs I've had in a while. It gets really dark out there at night so it's a perfect spot for stargazing. We had a clear view of the milky way and watched the Orionids peak on our last night. I've never seen it so clear. No negatives, we cant wait to go back!

- Jennifer, October 2016
Sharon September 2016

“Really great experience”

- Sharon, September 2016
Dan September 2016

“Great building, lovely location and very helpful owners, been a pleasure”

- Dan, September 2016
Jennifer August 2016

“Lovely cottage, well equipped with everything we could need.”

Toys and play area for the children. Well situated with a short walk to the nearby beach.

- Jennifer, August 2016
Neil August 2016

“Considering how busy Anglesey can be, and the number of large caravan sites and developments with multiple holiday homes cheek by jowl, this cottage is ideal for those wanting peace, quiet and great views (for now at least - there is a small cottage adjacent to this that looks as though it is being developed and it although the buildings are listed there is always the possibility of barn conversions too, which would change things considerably).”

The beach is perhaps not as picturesque as others nearby but very few people seem to know about it, so often we had it to ourselves. It is safe for swimming, though it's a long walk to the water at low tide, is easily accessible on foot down a sheltered private lane between hedgerows and lined with meadow flowers going down to small dunes.

- Neil, August 2016
H July 2016

“Comfy, homely feel to the house, good location and views.”

We like the isolation and the wonderful friendly owners. This was our 4th visit and it was as good as ever, roll on next years trip!

- H, July 2016
Karen July 2016

“A delightful cottage and location.”

- Karen, July 2016
Christine June 2016

“The property was just as described, close to local amenities yet far enough away to enjoy total peace with only birds rabbits and cows for company, total bliss.”

It is a fabulous location, a real Enid Blyton 'Famous Five' place for children of all ages (even our age). I cannot fault it and I am sure we will return. We have returned home feeling as though we have had the best holiday ever. Congratulations to the owners who were very friendly but discreet, their execution of the renovation and their choice of décor was just perfect, thank you.

- Christine, June 2016
Keith May 2016

“The kitchen was the best equipped we have come across with all the white goods you would expect at home!”

The setting and the views were truly stunning and offer a fantastic tranquil break whilst also giving access to the beach. Truly brilliant holiday.

- Keith, May 2016
Philip February 2016

“Beautiful location, quiet and isolated while still being near places and shops etc.”

Ty Fferm Bodlasan is a wonderful old house, full of character and within walking distance of the sea. We had a wonderful holiday!

- Philip, February 2016
Simon September 2015

“It is a lovely place to relax, a real sun trap and great private walk to the beach.”

- Simon, September 2015
H July 2015

“This holiday cottage is in a fabulous location, the perfect place to relax.”

This has been our third visit to the property and we will definitely be visiting again in the nearby future!

- H, July 2015
Nicola April 2015

“The location is absolutely gorgeous; peaceful and tranquil with virtually its own private beach.”

The sunsets each evening were breathtaking. The farmhouse is beautifully decorated and finished. It was cosy in the evenings with a real fire in the sitting room. The owners were welcoming and supplied us with bikes to ride and fresh eggs to eat.

- Nicola, April 2015
Jane August 2014

“Quiet, relaxing property and garden.”

We had a warm welcome from the owners. The beach was just a short walk along a track and the views were lovely.

- Jane, August 2014
H July 2014

“Another amazing week!”

The proximity to such a wonderful safe beach for our children is the reason we returned this year and we were not disappointed. The Welcome pack of goodies and the extra touch of 2 pots of bubbles for the girls was lovely and again, the family were so friendly and welcoming. The house provides everything we need in a quiet and beautiful location. I am sure we will be back!

- H, July 2014
Paul June 2014

“Fabulous farmhouse in lovely location.”

Very friendly owners. Welcome hamper was very much appreciated. Would love to go again. Anglesey is a great holiday destination or in fact a place to live!

- Paul, June 2014
Susan May 2014

“The owners had thought about everything - and more - their guests would need whilst staying at the house.”

The location was wonderful and the house had a very warm and welcoming feel to it.

- Susan, May 2014
Shaughna May 2014

“Beautiful and very private location with fabulous walking and easy access to a sandy beach.”

Very well equipped, comfortable and warm property. Friendly helpful owners - you could not ask for more.

- Shaughna, May 2014
Sally April 2014

“Lovely cottage, very warm with good central heating, and a beautiful setting overlooking the sea and fields.”

We were very pleased. Also liked the concern of the owners to ensure we were having a nice time, and they genuinely wanted feedback on how they could improve. A lovely cottage and perfect getaway!

- Sally, April 2014
Sarah March 2014

“The cottage had been very well decorated and was very cosy.”

It was great that there was a stair gate and high chair all helpful with a little one. We thought the upstairs in particular had been decorated very nicely. We also appreciated the log burner in the lounge. The location was excellent as so close to the sea.

- Sarah, March 2014
Fiona February 2014

“What a wonderful cottage.”

Truely isolated and utterly peaceful, enjoyed spectacular views across both the coast and the Anglesey countryside. What better way to spend a windy evening than toasting your toes in front of the log burner, before going to bed in one of the beautiful and cosy bedrooms? The pictures of the cottage really don't do it justice.

- Fiona, February 2014
Maria August 2013

“Beautiful house and location.”

Very friendly and helpful owners. Fantastic views. Easy to travel to other parts of Anglesey. The bathroom was fantastic, large, pretty and lovely to sit in the roll-top bath with a glass of wine, candles and watching the sun set. We felt very lucky to have been able to experience the former home of the owners, and know their history. Will revisit.

- Maria, August 2013
H July 2013

“This cottage is in the most fabulous location with a child friendly safe beach close by.”

We found the accommodation provided everything. We loved it so much we have already booked for next summer! Thank you for sharing this lovely place with us.

- John, July 2013
Ann June 2013

“The property was lovely and in a stunning location.”

It was quite isolated, which is just what we had wanted and expected. The owners were very friendly and attentive. The farmhouse itself is gorgeous and we loved the fact that so many old pieces of furniture were used and original features retained.

- Ann, June 2013
David June 2013

“We loved the peace and tranquility and also the location.”

- David, June 2013

- Geoff, December 2012
Matthew October 2012

A very good place to go if you want to get away from a busy lifestyle. There were so many places to go to and so many things to do.

- Matthew, October 2012

It is remote with no interference from neighbours. The owners were co-operative and helpful at all times, supplying logs and firewood as required. Views are good and easy access to the beach.

“The location is absolutely first class, just a few minutes stroll to the local beach and two more popular ones just a short drive away.”

Very secluded and you feel at ease with your surroundings from the moment you arrive. Will visit again!

The property

Llanfachraeth 1 mile. A delightful, stone-built detached Grade II listed farmhouse on a working arable farm, in an isolated position at the end of a long track, 1 mile from Llanfachraeth village and its local pub, yet just a few hundred yards walk to the coast, deserted coves and beaches found along this craggy western coast of Anglesey.

This lovely Anglesey cottage is a Grade II listed building dating back to 1849, and has been sympathetically restored to retain many original features, with exposed beams, sash windows, slate floors, and low doorways throughout.

This Anglesey cottage offers a fitted kitchen with pantry/utility room, a separate dining room with exposed beams, Rayburn stove and upright piano, and two delightful sitting rooms, allowing the adults to relax in one room, whilst the children play in the other.

Outside, this Anglesey cottage is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and there are fantastic views of Holyhead Bay and the cottage has its own private track down to the coast.

There is an enclosed lawn, a safe place for the children to play whilst you sit and soak up the sunshine, or cook the catch of the day over the BBQ.

This Anglesey cottage is in a secluded location, set in the centre of 100 acres of the owners' farmland, next to some of the farm's old outbuildings, now used for storage, offering a fantastic chance to get away from it all.

This cottage on Anglesey is also in a great location for Melin Llynon windmill, South Stack Lighthouse, Anglesey Sea Zoo, Plas Newydd NT mansion, beautiful Snowdonia and is close enough to Holyhead Port to even enjoy a day-trip to Ireland.

An ideal Anglesey cottage to enjoy a year-round seaside holiday in a lovely, peaceful coastal location.

About the location

LLANFACHRAETH

Valley 2 miles; Trearddur Bay 7 miles.

The village of Llanfachraeth, lies on Anglesey’s west coast and is named after a sixth century saint, St Machraeth. The village is set on the banks of the river Alaw, which flows from the Llyn Alaw reservoir, where it is possible to fish for coarse and game fish and salmon. Amidst spectacular cliffs and sandy beaches, this small village provides a local shop and pub, while the surrounding countryside boasts excellent fishing, birdwatching and coastal walks, with climbing on offer on the mainland in Snowdonia. Indulge in fabulous watersports, including kitesurfing, diving and sailing at the stunning Rhosneigr beach, or enjoy 18 holes at a choice of three local golf courses. Spend the day at Anglesey Sea Zoo, visit the historic town of Beaumaris with its medieval castle and array of shops and restaurants, take a boat trip past NT Plas Newydd country house or indulge in a day trip to Ireland. A wonderful, all year round holiday location.
