    “Dear Pip and Rik We are completely smitten with this cottage (East) and love what you have done with it.”

    We are making some suggestions for improvements / maintenance, but only because you asked for them in the welcome book. They are not complaints! Here they are: It would be good to have somewhere to hang wet coats. The hooks by the back door would be ok if the wooden table were moved to somewhere else. It would also be good to have somewhere to put wet footgear to dry out – maybe a mat in the porch and another mat by the back door would do it. (NB: the day after we arrived it poured all ...

    We are making some suggestions for improvements / maintenance, but only because you asked for them in the welcome book. They are not complaints! Here they are: It would be good to have somewhere to hang wet coats. The hooks by the back door would be ok if the wooden table were moved to somewhere else. It would also be good to have somewhere to put wet footgear to dry out – maybe a mat in the porch and another mat by the back door would do it. (NB: the day after we arrived it poured all day but after that it was a really lovely sunny week). We noticed on our arrival that the door to the kitchen cupboard on the left of the cooker is being damaged by the cooker hood, which it opens against. We put an Elastoplast over the corner of the cooker hood to give some protection but it really needs a protective plastic cover. The kitchen tap is hard to turn off. It may need a new washer. The door to the main bathroom (at the end of the hall) is hanging on one hinge. The outside pipe from the kitchen sink leaks buckets. It doesn’t affect the guests, but it won’t be good for the wall to have that much water draining down against it. It would be good – and probably save you money – to have some instructions for the central heating. A lot fo the time we have been too hot. We kept turning it off at the boiler, but it’s obviously on a timer and kept turning on again. We turned down the radiator thermostats but this didn’t work for some of them, and we couldn’t find a central thermostat. Bulb gone in shower furthest from kitchen. And bulb gone in back lobby. Useful to know where landfill goes, we couldn’t see the black bin and were trying to work out whether to put in bottom recycling bin. As I say, we aren’t complaining, just giving you information! We had a really lovely week and intend to come back next year.

The property

Amlwch 2.4 miles.

East Lighthouse Keeper's Cottage is a three-bedroom holiday home in the most breath-taking location on the coastline of Anglesey, enjoying some amazing sea views!

Nestled on the northeastern point of the Isle, in Llaneilian near Amlwch, as the name suggests, this home is a quirky, former lighthouse keeper's cottage, oozing character.

Step inside to reach the sitting room, with wooden flooring underfoot, plush sofas to relax into, and a TV for entertainment.

In the dining room, you’ll experience the most incredible views through the large pine window whilst enjoying breakfast, lunch, or supper, with a delightful woodburning stove to light for some extra warmth.

The kitchen has all you need including an electric cooker and hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, small freezer and washing machine, easing your self-catered stay, where you can prepare meals to be enjoyed outdoors, or light the barbecue on warmer days!

There are three bedrooms to select from, including a king-size, a double, and a twin, all serviced by two handy shower rooms.

The nature and wildlife surrounding the cottage are incredible, nestled within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty; spend time spotting porpoises, dolphins, birds, and gorgeous wildflowers in the spring.

Ornithologists will delight in spotting Wheateaters, Choughs, and Stonechats.

The local beach, which can be seen to the left, just prior to the private drive up the peninsula to the Lighthouse, is a hidden gem called Traeth Eilan.

Just a short walk from the property, this stunning rocky beach is reminiscent of a smugglers cove, with rugged cliffs protecting this secluded cove and providing mill-pond conditions, perfect for your morning wild swim, paddle board adventures or sea kayaking.

A quick stroll along the coastal footpath brings you to a lovely sandy cove called Llaneilian, which is ideal for bathing, rock pooling, or just having a relaxing afternoon.

Travel south to reach the attractions of Beaumaris, with its 13th century castle, bustling pier and the Beaumaris Gaol and Court ready to be explored, whilst further activities lie near the border, including Pili Palas Nature World, Plas Newydd House and Gardens, and Anglesey Sea Zoo.

Tour the Isle of Anglesey with a stay at East Lighthouse Keeper's Cottage.

Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1140457, together sleeping up to 12 guests.

For lovers of fishing and golf, both are available in Amlwch, with the Bull Bay Golf Club close by, and sea fishing a very popular pastime.
