  • "Beautiful cozy stay in a wonderful location, fantastic sea and mountain views from the sun room, even had red squirrels in the back garden!"

    Plenty of great hill and costal walks around the property. Perfect place if you want to get away from it all and enjoy some peace and quiet, whilst only being a 10 minute drive to Beaumaris

  • "This property was situated in a lovely location with stunning views especially from the front lawn we spent most our time up there, short walk to the beach and walk up to a panorama of mountains and sea."

    There were good facilities and it was a well thought out holiday home the garden was very well maintained however we were not informed when the gardener would come. He came earlier than mentioned on the information due to the good weather. The house and sunroom were surface clean a few let downs such as unclean hand towels with toothpaste marks etc. and on both beds the linen had many black hairs on the sheets as if a dog had been in it. Once reported to Gill it took a few nights for the cleaner to change to clean ones.

  • "We had a lovely relaxing week in Bron Heulog ."

    It is in a lovely peaceful area with beautiful views. The cottage is small but has everything you need. The stairs are quite narrow and steep and the mattresses are on low bases which some people may find difficulty in getting down to , we are 70 and we were fine . The summer house is an added bonus , lovely to sit and read in . The drive is narrow so you need to take care manoevering in and out . The cottage is very close to Beaumaris and several beautiful beaches , lots of lovely places to eat too.

    The inside was cosy, well presented & clean. There was everything we needed for our stay. The beds were low but they were really comfy & as a couple in our 60s we didn't have any issues with them. The sun room in the garden is lovely & a great place to relax & read whilst enjoying the fantastic views. Gill was easy to communicate with & has a brilliant folder with all the information you need to make your stay special.

  • "No mention of being up a steep hill neither my husband or I could walk anywhere."

    I was looking fwd to taking my dog on walks in the adjoining countryside but far to steep. Kitchen was OK but several pans seen better days and same for cutlery and crockery. Bedrooms were a nightmare as mattresses on floor I had to use the z-bed and there is no handrail on the extremely steep stairs. The toilet being downstairs was quite demanding when needing it in the night. All in all very disappointing

  • "The kitchen facilities were very poor indeed."

    One cupboard under the sink for crockery (not hygienic) and 3 drawers for cutlery and pans. No cupboards for food at all. We had to keep our food in bags on the floor or on top of the cooker. It really needs a dresser or cupboard and worktop installing as there’s plenty of space to do this. The window in the lounge was painted shut and the bedroom windows where tricky to open - need refurb or replacing. We had to keep the front door open for fresh air. The lounge and bathroom were very nice though. Don’t stay here unless you’re under 5ft tall as both bedrooms have very low beams to duck under and beds on floor.

  • "A lovely cottage in a beautiful part of Mon/ Anglesey, right on the coastal path."

    It was very peaceful, with the sun room offering amazing views in comfort, over a beautiful garden. The cottage is traditional, with low bedroom ceilings and beds, but we loved that, as it is very authentic. For a small cottage it is well equipped apart from no laundry facilities. A washing line for hanging out swim wear in the garden would be good as there are lots of great swimming opportunities nearby! The cottage is lovely, with a homely atmosphere in a perfect location and we'd love to return.

    It was a perfect base for us to explore more of the Island, than we have seen previously. The cottage was beautiful and was packed with original features. The addition of the sum room, enabled our son to have his own space but we within touching distance. The views were amazing and I just wish we had been there for a whole week, not just 5 days. Diolch yn fawr

  • "The photos and the write up do not give it justice."

    The views from the cottage and summer house over the sea and mountains are amazing. House backs onto a nature reserve. If you like walking there are many pubic footpaths around in walking distance but be prepared to walk up banks.

  • "The cottage was a bit tricky to find but well worth it."

    (Its at the top of the hill not as it starts to climb). Full of charm and character....really delightful. Better than the online photos. Worth walking up behind the cottage for fab views over the Strait. We took throws for the sofas as we had our dog with us, best idea.

  • "Perhaps a more welcoming approach, not particularly friendly when spoke on phone re arrival just an insistence to put all bedding and mattress covers in black bags when we were leaving."

    This is fair enough in these covid times, however in addition to the 9am check out and 5pm check in and the email from Sykes on the last day of the holiday insisting on the numerous things we needed to do before check out made us felt like we couldn't be trusted with leaving the property as we found it. Despite this the cottage was cozy, although it did have a strong smell of wet dog when we arrived and which seemed to linger. The summer house was nice with amazing views. In our view the cottage would be even better with some decoration to bring it up to more contemporary standards. WiFi would also be a much needed addition in order to book tickets, restaurants etc in the local area as mobile reception could not be relied upon. Car park space was very tight and if I remember rightly said for 3 cars, they must be very small cars if they 3 can fit in the allocated space.

  • "A very enjoyable break on the lovely island of Anglesey in a pretty, quirky cottage perfectly proportioned and very cosy."

    A good base for exploring the area by car or foot - the Wales coastal path is well marked all around the island. The closest town of Beaumaris is charming, with its pier and Castle for interest and relaxation, Jolly's cafe for refreshments and the Red Boat for delicious ice creams. The cottage itself is well equipped and has the addition of a lovely sun room which was a bonus. There is no washing machine which might be a drawback for some families - perhaps utilities could have been included in the sun room instead of a shower? The shop in the village was closed for refurbishment during our stay unfortunately so we had to go further afield. The track up to the cottage is rough, steep and has a drop to one side and the driveway should be negotiated with care. Lovely cottage in a great location with room enough for a small family.

  • "The views were wonderful, photos don't do it justice."

    Can see the sunrise from even the toilet! The garden and summer house were great, so relaxing. Yes the beams were low in the bedrooms and stairs steep but that was part of its charm. Tip: to get to stunning beach walking distance from house - carry on past turn off to house up the road, follow first footpath sign on Right, you go along side of a house, then through a wooded area. The beach is called Traeth Gwyn.

    Quirky layout - the shower room and toilet being downstairs, through the lounge and kitchen then up a level from the bedrooms. Shower small. The sun room, seperate from the house, was a bonus and did have a larger shower.

  • "Cottage was a delight- the photos do not show it off."

    Views across to Snowdonia stunning- sitting in the sun room watching the evening light play; waking mornings to an expanse of blue... Well kept garden a super relaxing space. Nature reserve at the back totally amazing- hell of a vantage point- butterflies and orchids too. Google maps does not show that beach access on foot from the cottage pretty steep. Would have been very tempted to return, next time for a fortnight to get to more beaches, but post-covid price hikes seem to have made that prohibitive...

    -We were very pleasantly surprised at having such good views.The location was better than anticipated, too.Thanks for warnings, but bedroom ceiling heights did not prove a problem, and neither did "steep stairs", as they are quite enclosed making them safer.Cottage was warm & comfortable.Showers were efficient(although drainage proved a tad slow to clear at times). Sunroom is brilliant (especially for watching thunder-storms over Snowdonia!)Turning space for car was a little tight,but it was good to have it so conveniently close on site.

    Luckily we were able to have variety while unable to walk as we had the cottage and the sunhouse and the pretty garden , we slept in the sunhouse on the convertible settee because my husband couldn’t use the stairs which was another bonus especially as it had its own Loo and shower. The cottage has fantastic views and is very close to Beaumaris. A good selection of DVD’s kept us entertained at nighttime . Lovely and peaceful , all you can hear is nature. Would definately recommend but please be careful on the slope down to the road .

  • "Brilliant location with stunning views great base to explore the island from."

    Older children maybe disappointed as no Wi-fi. Also I know this is an older property but cleaner needs to concentrate more on the cobwebs. Also sapling growing out of kitchen sink. Hard to tell from photos of property the beds are not proper beds with a base unit, basically mattress on the floor, although they were comfy less mobile may find difficult to get up and out of bed. Great place if you love quirky older properties and getting away from it all. Perfect to sit and read in piece and quiet curled up in front of the fire after a great day exploring

    A very small quiet nature reserve at back of the cottage for early morning walks with the dog only ever met one dog walker once. The sun room is fantastic giving lovely views down to the sea where we also watched the harvest moon rise and a couple of sun rises, gorgeous. The cottage is cosy and comfortable. Limited headroom in the bedrooms so watch your heads clunked mine a couple of times lol. Just a few mins drive to Beumaris where you can anything you need or forgot. Lovely best holiday in a long time and Luna the dog LOVED it.

    the lodge was outstanding for the 2 of them and the cottage roomy enough for myself and my other son to sleep and all 4 of us to eat and relax. The gardens were I think outstanding in character with views of the sea and mountains from the front. Through the back gate led to nature reserves and open countryside. Overall a great cottage . The only drawback was I didnt have a large enough pan to do a single meal for all of us. Not a criticism but a suggestion. It is also close enough to snowdonia to get there within 30 minutes.

  • "Loved the location - good for staying on Anglesey or going back to the mainland."

    Headroom in the bedrooms was a bit restricted (and we are not tall). The open fire was a nice feature and was enough to take the chill off in the evenings. The initial driveway up to the cottage is a bit tricky due to a loose, uneven surface and you need to take a run at it to avoid getting wheelspin or stalling. On Thursday we came back to find several bits of dog mess near the front door and were lucky to spot it before it got walked inside. The gardener comes that day and whether they let a dog run loose while they are working I wouldn't like to say. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much and the only thing that might put us off returning was the bedrooms, but that said we could always use the summer house which is well equipped and we didn't really make enough use of.

The property

A quirky and charming semi-detached cottage in a slightly elevated position in the hamlet of Glanrafon, on the outskirts of the village of Llangoed, just three miles from Beaumaris on the beautiful Isle of Anglesey.

Enjoying wonderful countryside and sea views, and located just off a country lane and up a private track, this cosy cottage enjoys a peaceful setting and appeals to couples and friends who wish to enjoy the riches on offer in this lovely part of Anglesey.

The cottage has a wealth of character features, such as exposed beams, roof timbers and purlins, with the original part of the cottage dating back some 200 years.

The sitting room is welcoming and cosy and benefits from a warming open fire with a staircase up to the two double bedrooms which are charming with low doorways and sloping ceilings, so please mind your head!

The shower room and cloakroom are modern and well-appointed, while the kitchen has a comfy dining area for a leisurely breakfast or a late supper.

The paved patio and lawned garden is perfect for alfresco dining, or you can simply relax and enjoy the wonderful views and sunsets from the comfort of the detached sun room.

This is a wonderful addition to the cottage with a sofa bed and en-suite shower room ensuring flexibility for your party's sleeping arrangements.

There are many pretty walks from the door including a delightful walk through the garden gate to the Mariandyrys North Wales Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve, taking in spectacular scenery and views on the way.

The white beach is within easy reach and is a really hidden gem, a favourite for birdwatchers and fishing enthusiasts.

Just three miles away is Beaumaris (there is a bus and taxi service), which provides a lovely day out where you can explore the 13th century moated castle and array of boutique shops.

Further afield there are wonderful beaches with coves to explore at Rhosneigr, Trearddur Bay and Benllech, or hike the coastal path visiting South Stack Lighthouse on the way?

Alternatively, you can head for the mainland to explore the many castles, the coast and the mountains of Snowdonia.

This holiday cottage provides a great base for a holiday, to be enjoyed at any time of the year.
