“What a find!”

We were so pleased with our stay at Pentowyn. The welcome note, cake and other treats were really appreciated, and the cottage was equipped with every thing we needed. It’s a very comfortable place to stay. The dog loved the spacious garden and it was great being so close to the beach. We would highly recommend a stay here as a base to explore Anglesey.

It’s a lovely cottage the shower cubicle is on the small side and the roll top bath would be nice if it also had a over head shower with curtain didn’t realise how low the beams actually were up stairs although it does state it in over view fantastic garden and living space downstairs unfortunately my partner is 6ft so we require a bit more standing space in bedroom so if your tall it’s probably not for you but overall great little cottage

“Fantastic cottage, very cosy and very well equipped.”

The garden is big and very well secured for big dogs. It is also on the doorstep of a nice dog friendly beach. Lots of beautiful coastal walks around, very nice beaches and beautiful forest with red squirrels. Shops are also few minutes from the cottage. Overall, a big 5 star rating! AMAZING holiday cottage with beautiful sceneries around.

Joanne June 2024

“Lovely stay in a spotless cottage.”

Everything you could possibly need. Only negative (a little nitpicky) could do with some bigger bath towels.

“A great cottage in a beautiful location.”

Don’t let the fact that the two bathrooms are downstairs put you off. Lovely size garden and ample parking with the beach and costal walks on your door step. Really enjoyed our stay.

“Wow! Fantastic cottage.”

We throughly enjoyed our stay at Pentowyn. The beach a few steps away. Great for our dog and lovely walks from the doorstep. The cottage was immaculate and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The garden fully enclosed and spacious. No issues from the campsite next door or the car park. Honestly sad to leave and will definitely book here again.

Steven March 2024

“Beautiful cottage, very well equipped with everything you could need and very comfortable.”

The garden was fully enclosed as detailed. Highly recommended. The ceilings in the bedrooms upstairs are not restricted height, they are low.

Barry February 2024

“This is a beautiful cottage, perfect location for beach, coastal walks and sightseeing.”

The choice of shops in walking distance was an added bonus. The cottage is very comfortable and myself husband and our dogs didn’t want to leave- so much so we have already booked again for next year!! A true gem of a place.

- Barry, February 2024
Kevin February 2024

“Gorgeous cottage in a prime location.”

Literally across from a wonderful dog friendly beach. A wonderful walk along the coast path through the forest and on to lovely coves to explore. There’s also the bonus of having everything you need on your doorstep shopping wise. The only thing that let us down was the weather. But even that couldn’t dampen what was a wonderful time. Would certainly go again in the future. 5*

- Kevin, February 2024
Gail January 2024

“This is a gorgeous, well appointed cottage.”

It's cosy, comfortable and fully equipped with all mod cons. Dog friendly, the owners even providing dog towels and blankets to make your furry friends welcome too. The dog friendly beach is literally over the road and was perfect. Shops are within walking distance. We spent the best week here Jan 2024 and returned home fully rested. Highly highly recommended.

Clive November 2023

“Pentowyn was extremely clean and comfortable.”

The enclosed garden was ideal for our 2 dogs. With the beach a few feet away and Penrhos Coastal Park (we saw red squirrels) a few minutes walk, you don't need a car. With a big Retail Park 5 mins and main roads not far away Pentowyn is in a very good location. We had a lovely relaxing time. Thank you

Lynne October 2023

“We had an absolutely amazing holiday at Pentowyn.”

The cottage is perfectly situated next to the beach, with Penrhos Coastal Park on its doorstep and only a short drive from Trearddur Bay and other beautiful locations. The cottage was very clean and comfortable and well equipped. Two bathrooms made it perfect for us and we particularly liked the bath after a busy day exploring. The kitchen was excellent and had everything we needed. The master bedroom was generous in size and very comfortable. The upstairs single was a tight squeeze (we had an adult in there - it’d be fine for a little one). The garden was perfect for dogs - fully enclosed and very spacious. Thank you for a wonderful holiday. I cannot recommend it enough.

- Lynne, October 2023
Kate October 2023

“What a fabulous cottage!”

We loved our stay and wished we’d have booked for longer. The cottage had everything and more and the little touches were lovely. The yummy chocolate cake and milk in the fridge were a welcome surprise after a long journey. The location was perfect and right on the beach and the views from the window were beautiful. Round the corner are supermarkets and a retail park so the best of both worlds. The cottage had a lovely garden with seating area that was great for our dog to wander safely. Inside, everything was clean and furnished to a high standard with cosy and comfortable beds. The only small things I would say to improve the property would be the size of the towels. The bath towels were very small so I’d recommend taking your own. Also as a bit of a snob, I’d have liked to see a better offering of drinking glasses. More larger glasses for lager or gin and Prosecco glasses would be welcomed for the fizz. If you book this cottage you won’t be disappointed and I’d definitely book again Thank you Jane and family for having us x

- Kate, October 2023
Jo September 2023

“Fabulous cottage, very clean and a homely feel.”

Everything we needed was provided, down to dog towels and poo bags. Immaculate garden of good size and huge frontage with ample parking. Lovely beach just a few steps across the road. We had a little problem, we text the owners who replied very quickly and came to the property within the hour. Very helpful and friendly and problem sorted immediately. Would definitely return 10/10.

The cottage was fantastic very clean well equipped very dog friendly with a large garden for the dogs only a throw away from the beach and the shops are just a short walk away no problem with the camp site next door we've already booked again for next year so try it for yourself and enjoy

Jane August 2023

“Fantastic holiday cottage, well equipped, clean and comfortable.”

The garden was amazing and well kept. Situated in a very good position near a beach and close to shops. Lots of space downstairs, although the low beams upstairs were a slight issue for us. This wouldn't stop us booking again though, as the positives outweigh the slight negative. Thanks, we had a lovely week.

- Jane, August 2023
Emma August 2023

“We had a lovely wk away at Pentowyn perfect location not to far from anywhere, we loved been so close to the beach and our dogs loved it to, the garden was nice and private even if there was a caravan park over the fence it didn’t spoil our stay, it was very peaceful on a evening .”

The only niggle was the low beams at the top of the stairs they needs to be some bright tape actually on the beam as you can’t see the sighn behind it , my son is tall and he did bump his head on it, My daughter loved the bedroom downstairs it was cute. The cottage was very clean plenty of towels which is always good.

- Emma, August 2023
Angela August 2023

“The cottage was immaculately clean, lovely comfy sofas and we appreciated the dog throws and towels lovely big garden for dogs to run and easy access to beach.”

There was lots of info on things to do during our stay

Sarah July 2023

“What a lovely holiday cottage!”

We have really enjoyed our stay here, especially with the beach being so close, literally steps away from the front door! The house is pretty well-stocked, although a quiche and lasagne dish would be good additions to the kitchen cupboard. The heating issue was quickly sorted by the friendly owners, many thanks! The log burner is wonderful and most welcome on the chillier evenings. The 2 bathrooms downstairs are good; although we missed a toilet upstairs (ageing knees going up and down in the night!!) But this is clear in the cottage description. The shops are very close by and proved a great convenience for stocking up the fridge and cupboards. Overall, we've spent a lovely week here. Our dogs loved the large enclosed garden too. The weather hasn't been great but the cottage has been a lovely place to sit in, relax, get dry, warm up and chill out. Highly recommended.

- Sarah, July 2023
Amanda July 2023

“So close to being 5 star.”

House very clean and well maintained. It is well equipped and included cleaning materials (not many do that). New mattresses would be good and as it is a quirky cottage perhaps yellow warning tape on the beam at the top of the stairs! There is a step down into the downstairs bedroom and one bathroom but you got used to that! Being at the end of the road and next to the beach was amazing for our dog- her favourite place and still a sandy area at high tide. Good size garden but no privacy during summer months as camper vans in field next door but hopefully the hedge will grow a few more feet then it will be perfect! Would definitely come back out of season.

- Amanda, July 2023
Kate June 2023

“Well presented and stocked cottage, totally secure for pets with a fabulous location for those poochies who love the beach (20 paces and you are on the sands!”

). In approx half a mile you have Tesco including a petrol station, Aldi, Lidl,Morrsons B&M etc with KFC McDonalds not far either for kids. Great place for exploring ..... Only niggle is that there is only a single bedroom downstairs rather than a double but this is fully explained in the details. You will certainly enjoy your stay

- Kate, June 2023
Karen June 2023

“What a great holiday cottage!”

Perfectly located for the beach, local amenities and as a base for exploring Anglesey and North Wales. Four adults and two small dogs thoroughly enjoyed our break which was accompanied by weather that could not have been bettered. The cottage contained all of the comforts of home, and some extra, together with a superb garden enjoyed by all of us. Although the cottage's details did mention the sloping bedroom ceilings upstairs, we do think that the smaller room upstairs is only really suitable for a child. Better facilities for refuse and recycling would also be appreciated. However, despite our minor criticisms, we fully intend to return to the cottage as soon as time allows. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage.

“Exceptionally clean.”

!0 yds. from beach. Plenty of private parking space. Every facility but couldn't locate any WiFi. Lovely location for accessing Coastal Path.

- Geoff, May 2023
Carolyn May 2023

“Fabulous place, spotlessly clean.”

Great location. Very little headroom upstairs although we had been warned of this in the description of the cottage so we were aware. Everything else lovely except the shower could do to be a bit bigger as my husband did struggle with the limited room. ( time for a diet I think

Amy March 2023

“We have been away for the last 9 years and this is the best property we have stayed at for location.”

All necessities on your doorstep but with a beach view.. I didn't think that existed. Jane and her family came to help us when we needed something straight away. We have 2 big German Shepherds Axel & Skye who absolutely loved the enclosed garden. The outside hose was a massive help for washing sandy dogs down. We even had dog towels provided in our welcome pack with cakes and assorted coffee/tea and even milk in the fridge. There are so many walks from the doorstep and others a very short drive. The island of holyhead is absolutely breathtaking. The house is full of everything you need and the log fire is stunning. Make sure you book you will not be disappointed. Amy Lanigan-Deeks

Lesley February 2023

“Such a lovely place, has everything and right on the beach but also close to the shops.”

I am recovering from surgery and not very mobile at the moment so to get away to such a perfect place was great medicine. Need to come back when I’m better so I can enjoy the many walks close by.

- Lesley, February 2023
Heather January 2023

“Loved the cottage right next to the sea, lovely setting, but being January the weather was wet and windy.”

But that didn't stop us going out with teddy, our dog. Now he was confused in the cottage to many doors!

- Heather, January 2023
Kate December 2022

“Perfect property with lovely large enclosed garden and right on the beach.”

Would recommend very highly.

- Kate, December 2022
Sue December 2022

“Loved our short break at the beginning of December, lovely cottage with an enclosed garden for the dogs.”

A nice touch was the basket provided with towels and throws for the dogs. Brilliant straight across the road to the dog friendly beach. There is a caravan site over the fence next door, which was closed during our visit. The wood burner in the lounge made it very cosy together with Sky TV including movies. You did have to bend down to go into the bedroom upstairs and the bathroom and shower room were downstairs which we didn't find a problem. I would say though we were woken at 6.30 am on 2 mornings by the council worker coming to empty the waste bin in the car park next to the property with loud music blaring out. The dog walkers turn up at all times of day, parking in front of the gates to the property on the other side of the road, making it difficult to enter and leave the drive. All in all a lovely cottage which I would definitely recommend.

- Sue, December 2022

“Our second Holiday at this little gem of a cottage.”

Very clean and comfortable, had everything we could need and great views. The kitchen is well equipped. We will defiantly be coming here again, hopefully next year. Thank you for the card it was a lovely thought.

Sharon August 2022

“What a beautiful little cottage, very welcoming, clean and no sign of any dogs ever being there.”

Perfect location for the dog friendly beach right across the road and coastal path walk. Lovely big secure garden for the dogs to enjoy. Nice little touches with the welcome hamper, coffee, tea and milk and the cake was delicious. Doggy items also provided just in case you forgot yours. All cleaning items were provide. Lots of books and games for rainy days, not that we needed them as the weather was glorious. The cottage had everything you could need for a comfortable stay. We were sad to leave but look forward to returning

- Sharon, August 2022
Chris August 2022

Sue May 2022

“The property is beautiful and a fantastic location.”

The dogs loved the beach and going into the sea for the first time! Pity the sun didn’t shine on our coastal path walk yesterday, and we were very wet when we got back, but apart from that, all great

- Sue, May 2022
Josie May 2022

“Beautiful property.”

Everything was perfect from entering to leaving. Relaxing and inviting. Felt homely. Perfect little location. Superb enclosed garden for our dog, knowing he couldn’t escape helped us to relax and not worry. He couldn’t wait to walk over to the beach, beautiful view from the bedroom window. We will be back. Nice touches from the owner, tray bake left for us to enjoy. I miss it already.

- Josie, May 2022

“It was such a pleasure to stay at this beautiful cottage, it was so comfortable and lovingly furnished.”

Clare March 2022

“Ive had a lovely midweek break at this cottage, and it didnt disappoint, beautiful, clean and everthing you need.”

Great location for taking a pet. There was no signs of pets having been there, immaculately clean. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone

- Clare, March 2022
Sheena March 2022

“What an amazing place.”

The cottage was comfy and cosy and we felt so at home here. My dog had the most amazing time being so close to the beach for an early morning walk with no one around but the seagulls and oystercatchers was bliss for us both. We all felt a little sad at having to leave but we will definitely be back.

- Sheena, March 2022
Sue March 2022

“Absolutely amazing place.”

The location is fantastic, a few steps from the gate and you are on the beach. The dogs loved the garden too, nice and secure for them to explore. Property was well equipped and comfortable, furnished to a very high standard. Just be careful of the beams upstairs lol. Would definitely stay again.

- Sue, March 2022
Tracey February 2022

“Wonderful cottage, a stones throw away from the beach.”

We arrived at the tail end of storm Eunice, and had delayed our arrival by a day. The owners had thoughtfully provided a flask of hot water and flashlights in case the water and electricity had gone off. Fortunately, they weren’t needed, but it was a very nice touch.. A welcome hamper with milk, cake, tea, coffee and sugar was a treat too. The cottage was spotless, warm and cosy. Very well appointed, with all you could need. Our dogs enjoyed the garden. Thank you for sharing your lovely holiday home with us.

- Tracey, February 2022
Anna February 2022

“Fantastic break at Pentowyn.”

Everything was as described. Downstairs was roomy yet cozy, with excellent facilities. The lounge area was great, we loved the log burner! Upstairs was as described - the headroom was reduced but it didn’t cause any issues. Very comfortable beds. We loved being on the beach, perfect for taking out our dog, and we did some great hiking too. Very useful books and maps on dog walking we’re provided too. The finish of the cottage was superb, as was the level of cleanliness. We’ll definitely return.

- Anna, February 2022
Samantha January 2022

“The cottage is situated at the end of a street opposite the beach.”

Very close to main supermarkets and has everything In the cottage you would require for a nice stay. Books and games are also available and we completed the 1000 piece jigsaw on a rainy day. The only downside was that people are constantly pulling up and parking their vehicles outside the property and main bedroom window from 7am for beach access and arnt the quietest. A lovely stay overall

- Samantha, January 2022
Dawn November 2021

“The property was just beautiful, done to a very high standard, there is limited head space upstairs, but the rest of the cottage definitely makes up for that,everything you could ask for and a beautiful garden.”

We couldn't get over how close to the beach we were!! Out of the gate and cross the road and your there, it was perfect for taking my dog for walks, it is a popular dog friendly beach, even in November,so does get busy outside but this wasn't a problem for us. We will definitely be back Dawn and Carl

- Dawn, November 2021
June November 2021

“Stayed here for a long weekend, wish I had booked the whole week, did not want to come home.”

The cottage is spacious very clean and comfortable. The view is fab and has a lovely garden as well. Walks straight from the door so our dogs loved it. We will be back again as its a little gem of a find.

“Our second stay at this lovely cottage.”

The property is very clean and comfortable Welcome pack on arrival & logs for the fire Nice outside seating area and secure garden for dogs . Close to the beach .Perfect base to explore Anglesey and nice walk to Penrhos coastal park Already booked for next year

- Susan, October 2021
Anthony October 2021

“A stunning cottage loved the low beams upstairs made to the character and fun of property.”

The well maintained and garden size was impeccable.great location for dog walking.we do have a couple of suggestions for the owners.the chest of drawers in ground floor bedroom is too high my elderly mum could not reach for glasses or drinks also the bathroom floor drops as a step and blends in so do not see the step could do with a black yellow strip there.apart from this enjoyed staying very much would like to come back.

- Anthony, October 2021
Tim August 2021

“The low ceilings and beams upstairs are a challenge for taller people.”

Hard to avoid banging your head several times during a stay.

- Tim, August 2021
Matthew August 2021

“Had a wonderful stay in cottage full of character.”

The owners left a lovely welcome pack. The location is absolutely perfect and we found it a great base to explore Anglesey.

- Matthew, August 2021
Khurram July 2021

“Great location.”

Very close to the beach and shops. Beautifully appointed cottage. Felt like home. The bedrooms however are very small and upstairs in particular very restricted headroom. The smaller bedrooms are suitable for children only.

- Khurram, July 2021
'andrew July 2021

“The cottage was roomy and comfortable a bit tight upstairs for headroom but that is to be expected with the conversion.”

Kitchen faculties very modern and good with bath and showers all new. This is a newly converted cottage and done to a good spec we had the fortune of the heatwave so utilised the large garden and took the advantage of using the beach which is as close to your front gate as you can get. An added bonus is that the local amenities are a minutes drive away. A great place all in all and definitely worth a consideration when looking at a place to stay

- 'andrew, July 2021
Caroline July 2021

“Found the constant cars pulling up outside with dogs from 6am to late barking a reason we wouldn't go back as this disturbed sleep in the mornings although we have dogs ourselves it was causing them to bark as well.”

Shame people don't use the carpark next door. Very hot in the restricted head room bedroom

- Caroline, July 2021
Nikki July 2021

“A real home from home, had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.”

A really well thought out property, renovated to a high standard. Super close to the beach which was perfect for our beach loving pups. Within walking distance to the shops & pretty central to many beautiful walks. Really good to see the owners take on board comments from previous visitors too - the garden is now enclosed, something which had been previously mentioned as a problem. Can't rate this property highly enough, really sad to leave but hope to return soon.

- Nikki, July 2021
Steve May 2021

“Pentowyn is a cute little cottage perfectly situated just a few steps from the coastal path and a nice wide beach.”

When the tide's out, there's a huge expanse of sand to exercise dogs and humans alike! And at the far end of the beach there's the lovely Penrhos nature reserve where we found secluded coves and wonderful woodland walks. The owners have renovated the property to a high standard with great fixtures and fittings including a fabulous log burner which guaranteed a cosy day spent indoors when it was wet & windy outside. We were lucky with the weather for most of our week and we were able to make full use of the spacious garden and the little patio area with table and chairs (these weren't on any of the photos of the cottage when we booked so think it would be a good idea to update them to show this nice outdoor dining area). We noted that a previous visitor had mentioned that the garden wasn't totally enclosed, but we found it to be completely fenced off (perhaps new?) and our cocker spaniel was safely confined no matter how hard she tried to find an escape route! There's a plethora of shops, takeaways and restaurants all just minutes away, making Pentowyn a really convenient choice too - we had a really great week and would highly recommend it for a memorable break.

- Steve, May 2021
Jacky April 2021

“It was a lovely cottage right by a busy dog walking beach, which was great But I take a great deal of time looking at the right cottage for us and our 2 dogs and the 1 of the main things we look for is an enclosed garden.”

Unfortunately it was not, so we were unable to let the dogs out on there own and when we did go out with them they managed to escape so easily as in jump over the low wall while people and dogs walking past or just step through the roped wall which just led them onto the ajoining car park. We could not relax and so did not enjoy the experience as we should. If your garden is not enclosed please say that so people can make the right choice.

- Jacky, April 2021
Kenneth October 2020

“Very nice property very close to the beach, dog walkers have a good path and the beach.”

a shopping park for supermarkets close by. we had a comfy stay the bed very comfortable. we would highly reccomend this property.

Nathan September 2020

“Beautiful cottage in a nice location.”

Stones throw away from local amenities. Short drives to beautiful beaches, Snowdonia and tourist hotspots. Nice to escape amid the crazy pandemic.

- Nathan, September 2020
Natalie September 2020

“Me and my hubby (and our cocker spaniel) booked Pentowyn for a long weekend away to celebrate our second anniversary and what a weekend we had.”

The cottage it’s gorgeous and has been renovated really well and tastefully. We book these type of places for the location as we like to go out walking and this location was better than we anticipated, it’s literally right on the beach and should be advertised as a sea view property. I found myself setting alarms for earlier than normal to appreciate the sun rise views out of the bedroom window and even popping across to the beach to really take it all in as the place was so quiet and peaceful at that time. Short drives away took us to Holyhead mountain, red dwarf bay and other beautiful walks perfect for dogs. The garden was huge and the same with the drive, all enclosed so perfect for just letting the dog roam around but could imagine would be great for families too. For tall families/people, upstairs has very low ceilings, this isn’t a complaint as it’s an old building and the property is quirky, we were fine with it as we didn’t really spend our time up there. More tea towels or maybe a kitchen roll would have been good but that is literally the only slight niggle we could find with this place. Thank you for an amazing weekend and we will be back in future I’m sure. Nat, Chris & Paddy the dog.

- Natalie, September 2020
Anne August 2020

“The cottage and its location were amazing.”

Couldn't have asked for better. The beach was great for taking the dogs for long walks and enjoying the scenery. The perfect place for a relaxing holiday and close enough to visit many more outstanding beaches. Hoping to visit again soon.

- Anne, August 2020
Karen July 2020

“The cottage is beautiful & was sparkling clean on arrival.”

It had everything we needed for a wonderful holiday. The owner Jane responded to a couple of queries immediately and was very helpful. The cottage is located just minutes from Penhros Coastal Park with woodland walks as well as access to the coastal path. Would definitely stay here again.

- Karen, July 2020
Hannah March 2020

“Beautiful cottage.”

Perfect location for taking the dogs on a beach walk every day. Lots of useful/ large supermarkets within a 5min walking distance. Lovely views, you can watch the ferries come in and out the dock all day long. The island was beautiful and some absolutely amazing views.

“Absolutely loved the cottage, loved it's location and had best holiday for a long time and the best we've had in UK.”

First time we ever had a cottage that was even better than we had hoped, let alone expected.

“Wow this is such a gorgeous cottage.”

Immaculately clean and everything and more to have a relaxing break . The weather was shocking but the log burner made it very cosy . The roll top bath also helped with bubble baths . Our girls ( dogs ) loved the beach right at the side of the cottage . Only one tiny problem was the low beams upstairs. This only added to the character and charm though .

“The cottage was very cosy and warm.”

Everything was of good quality and having an outside tap was a boon for rinsing off the dogs after time on the beach. A few steps out of the cottage and we were on a green walk which led to the beach. We stayed for 4 nights and came away refreshed and relaxed.

About the location

HOLYHEAD

Trearddur Bay 3 miles.

The bustling town of Holyhead rests on the North West coast of the Isle of Anglesey, the largest town on the island and perhaps known best for being the main ferry port to Ireland. Steeped in history, the town boasts the remains of Roman town walls and forts, medieval burial chambers and stone village foundations. Explore the Breakwater Country Park, a former quarry, which offers designated walks through the grounds. The park is full of interesting wildlife, most notably the seals who visit the Holyhead coast, and outlines the amazing construction of the world's longest breakwater, some 1.8 miles, which today protects the harbour. Visit the colourful marina with its yachts and tall ships, or the town's maritime museum, with its tales of 100 shipwrecks in the vicinity. Day trips to Ireland can be enjoyed easily from here, with Dublin just 90 minutes away on the fast ferry. With spectacular cliff top walks over Holyhead Mountain, golden sandy beaches at the award winning Trearddur Bay and the Snowdonia National Park just a 20 minute drive away, this is a superb holiday location, at any time of the year.

Electric Vehicle Charging is available without charge from 12am-7am only, at all other times, please negotiate with property owner, charger is untethered so customers need to bring their own charging cable.
