"Everything you could possibly need is provided Whole apartment is beautifully designed Best place we have ever stayed!"
-
"Perfect apartment with beautiful views."
Really clean on arrival, hosts kept in contact only when needed. Well equipped kitchen. A great central point to explore Anglesey. No problems at all would love to return again in the future!

"An incredible property, perfect for those with a young family."
The grounds are beautiful and spacious and the location was so close to everything we wanted to see and do. The apartment was kitted out with so many things that were helpful for a family trip away: a picnic/ cooler set, a slow cooker (with a cookbook!), lots of family games. My husband and I said we would need to bring much less next time. The local produce given to us was a sweet bonus. And the views! Wow - we cannot wait to stay again.

"We loved our week in Nyth y Fran."
Wonderful apartment, thoughtfully presented and the views over the Menai Staights were fantastic. It was a great base to explore Anglesey from and the guides and local information provided were helpful. The Welsh treats for us and the dog treats were really thoughtful
-
"Nyth y Frân is a beautiful apartment with stunning views."
We found it really well equipped and comfortable. Rachel, the housekeeper, had left it spotlessly clean and Kerry and Steve, the owners, were swift to respond to any queries. We enjoyed a circular coastal path walk from Bull Bay, a visit to National Trust’s Plas Newydd, the long, sandy beach at Newborough Warren and the magical Hidden Garden just down the road. All in all, Nyth y Frân is a superb base from which to explore Anglesey.

"What a gem!"
The apartment is wonderful, full of quirks & character- comfortable, well equipped, spotlessly clean, amazing views. Had a truly lovely stay. So enjoyed the wonderful views and our trips out and about to discover Anglesey.

"Absolutely fantastic property."
The views are amazing! The telescope is an absolute bonus. We loved everything about the property.

"Our second visit to Nyth Y Fran."
We love it. Top class apartment, well positioned to visit every part of the island and to hop across the Menai Straits to visit attractions on the mainland. We’ll be back again!!
-
"Outstanding property."
Furniture and fittings well chosen to give a very modern, efficient, attractive environment. Glorious views from every window. We couldn’t fault the property in any way and are waiting to see dates released for future visits. Kerry and Steve have created a wonderful apartment and private garden. We loved it. Thank you too for the thoughtful selection of local selection of local produce.

"We have stayed in a lot of holiday cottages and lodges and Nyth y Fran was the best we have stayed in."
It is stunningly situated and the property is furnished and maintained to an extremely high standard - the owners had thought of everything.
-
"A truly stunning apartment pack full of top quality fixtures & fittings."
Great comms from host Kerry to make sure everything was ready for our arrival. It was our first holiday being accompanied by two of our grandchildren. They loved the apartment, especially having their own little den in 'the crow's nest', where there were various board games etc to keep them amused in the evening before bedtime. We all had a fab time.
-
"Absolutely perfect in every way - spotlessly clean, top quality equipment, views to die for - so many superlatives!"
We had a lovely holiday, thank you.
-
"Wow what a fantastic apartment in a beautiful stunning building with views that are magical."
The apartment was clean, tidy & immaculate (well done cleaners). Top quality furniture, fixtures & fittings. Pictures are so accurate but the views have to be seen to be believed. We had fantastic weather while on holiday & was able to enjoy the private garden. Would not hesitate to return or recommend Nyth y Fran.
-
"Suburb apartment, well equipped fantastic views."
It is possibly the best apartment/house we have ever stayed at, full marks to the owners.
-
"A beautifully furnished, decorated and equipped apartment."
It is in a location with wonderful views and ideally situated to explore both Anglesey and Snowdonia.
-
"Great spacious place with wonderful views ."
-
"Outstanding accommodation in terms of facilities, cleanliness and location."
The apartment was very comfortable, warm and welcoming. We enjoyed the welcome gifts of cake, biscuits and preserves all of which were local. Views from the apartment were breathtaking! I have no doubt that we’ll be back.
-
"Nyth y Fran is a delight."
The property is very clean, bright, well-kept and the owners' provide excellent instructions with all things considered, even down to recycling being carried out by a commercial company. The property location is fabulous sitting on the Anglesey side of the Menai Strait with views across the water and out to the mountains, which are an ever changing panorama of weather, light and shade. A private garden is also available, although a tad chilly in Feb. Near by amenities are available in Menai Bridge and Beaumaris as well as further afield. Overall, we had a relaxing, enjoyable and lovely stay. highly recommended.

"Nyth Y Fran was a beautiful, well appointed, high end apartment."
The finish to all the fixtures and fittings was clearly top class and it was spotlessly clean. The welcome gifts we received were not only thoughtful but delicious as well. The only thing I would ask for differently would be a bath sheet rather than a bath towel but that is really being micro picky. The views from the apartment are lovely (even though we had shocking weather). I would say that as long as the lift is working it would suit anyone of any age and mobility but if it ever broke down I think the stairs could be an issue for some older guests. The steps down to the main road and the Gazelle pub were closed off for safety reasons( understandable) so it would have been a longer walk to the pub, which going down would have been fine but coming up a different matter. If you want easy, short walking distance to pubs and shops this may not be the place for you. Menai Bridge is just 5 mins or so away in the car but a good 40 mins walk I’d guess. Beaumaris is a drive not a walk away. Loved the place and we will be returning. Thank you Kerry and Steve.

-
"Beautiful and immaculately clean luxurious apartment in a stunning location."
Amazing views across the Menai Strait. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners have thought of everything and could not have been more helpful. Highly recommended.
-
"What a remarkable property!"
Everything you need; very clean and comfortable. And then there’s the view. Wow! Terrific! Thank you.
-
"An amazing property with stunning views, set in a fabulous location."
-
"A fabulous apartment over looking the Menai Straits, beautifully decorated and furnished."
All facilities you needed and more provided. Thoughtful welcome pack provided which was a bonus. Kerry and Steve have provided a wonderful place from which to explore what Anglesey and North Wales has to offer.
-
"Nyth y Fran was the most perfect holiday apartment - we loved it!"
Its views over the Menai Strait and the North Wales mountain range are stunning. The apartment is beautifully decorated and well equipped, a real home from home. Its location is also ideal - quick and easy to get to wherever you want to go around the island or back on the mainland. So glad we've found it, we'll definitely be back sometime!
-
"This is a lovely apartment that is well-situated with great views over the Menai Straits, across to Bangor and to the peaks beyond."
Spectacular in any weather. The apartment was very clean and tidy upon arrival but also inviting. I don't think we lacked for anything. The welcome pack of local produce was a nice touch and appreciated. The lift links all floors and there are ramps for wheelchairs at the main entrance. Both bathrooms have modern walk-in showers and are effectively wet rooms. A word of warning - the apartment is built into the roof space and not ideal for tall people as there are beams and angled ceilings wherever you go. These are marked and even bear luminescent strips. However, taller visitors should be careful. We experienced weather that included high winds and lashing rain. During this we felt comfortable and snug, appreciating the atmosphere as the wind howled and rain hammered on the windows. The bad weather barely impacted upon us whilst within the accommodation. We visited in late October, which is hardly the best time to enjoy the gardens (both general and private) but can easily recommend these amenities - when the weather cleared the views from the property are well worth descending from the apartment. The directions to the apartment were helpful and accurate. The location is very convenient for reaching both Menai Bridge and Beaumaris locally, but also for visiting Anglesey and the mainland. As recommended, we tried the Gazelle Inn/Hotel nearby: well worth the visit (well, two actually): great location, great food and ambience, and lovely staff. Not cheap, but we thought it good value. However, one word of warning: the new flight of wooden steps to and from the residence are both steep and can be very slippery in wet conditions.

"An exceptional property, facilities to a very high standard."
Wonderful views from every room, tranquil setting. Highest standards in every aspect of the holiday.

The owners are looking into it now though

"The accommodation was perfect."
The setting, the view , private garden. Every detail was wonderful . The holiday was delayed due to Covid but it was worth the wait.
-
"Accommodation was first class and its ease of access to touring the island and North Wales is superb."
-
"The apartment was lovely."
Very clean and well equipped.Beds very comfy.Enjoyed looking out of the windows at the Menai Straight.This time of year the migrating geese were flying by. Very handy for Beaumaris and Menai town. Have to be careful you dont bump your head on the sloping ceiling. Would have loved to book it for next year but it has nearly doubled in price.
-
"This is the second time my family and I have stayed here because we were so impressed the first time, and I can honestly say it was just as impressive the second time."
We would definitely stay here again. It is like a home from home, everything has been thought of and the views are amazing.

-
"We have stayed in many, many holiday properties over the years and we can honestly say Nyth Y Fran is the best."
We have never stayed in an apartment before and were unsure what to expect. When we arrived we were presented with a stunning, yet beautifully quirky apartment and amazing views. The crows nest turret 'snug' is full of guide books and helpful information, the kitchen area very well equipped with one of the best washing up views ever and the other rooms are tastefully appointed and comfortable for a holiday at any time of the year. The addition of the private garden area is perfect and also provides more wonderful views across to Bangor, the sea and the iconic bridge across the Menai Straits. A small point - not really enough towels provided. A single hand towel and a medium size one each is not enough for a week's holiday and we would have expected at least one bath sheet. This apartment is a great base for days out and or to simply sit and admire the view - or both! We have used your company before and were glad to see that booking is still easy, communications excellent and pictures and descriptions accurate - many thanks.

"We thoroughly our week staying in this lovely apartment."
The unseasonable wet weather prevented us from going out as much as we had planned, but meant that we spent more time in the apartment enjoying the views, television and reading matter.

We would definitely stay again.
-
"I love staying with Menai Holidays we have been coming to Anglesey for over 10 years and we have loved every single one of the cottages we have stayed in."
The cottages are always ready, well equipped and the cakes, tea etc are really nice touches that make the place a home from home from the minute to arrive and you know you can enjoy the holiday without worrying about anything which is why we have booked time and time again. This holiday was no exception Nyth y Fran was an amazing place, fantastically well equipped and amazing views even when the weather wasn't the greatest.
-
"What a truly amazing spot!"
We found it so easy to access lots of National Trust properties from the holiday accommodation, as well as being so close to all the lovely beaches on Anglesey. The flat was a perfect base, with lovely views, and it was so quiet and peaceful.....a gem of a place!
-
"We felt relaxed and comfortable as soon as we walked in."
This is our perfect apartment and not too far away. Everything seemed carefully chosen to make our stay feel relaxing and look beautiful. We enjoyed walks into Beaumaris, next day through the wood to Newborough beach and finally around the house and gardens at Penrhyn Castle. The Lobster Pot at Church Bay was the ideal venue for my husbands birthday lunch.
-
"It was like spending a week in a 'Next' directory, great apartment everything we needed and more."
Fabulous weather too! A great location in terms of views - amazing and from where we could explore Anglesey and North Wales. Thanks for the teacakes and milk.
-
"Immaculate, tastefully decorated."
Excellent location with STUNNING views.
-
"Fantastic home."
Superbly well equipped, very well thought out for visitors. Walk to Menai in 40 mins, walk to Beaumaris in 45 mins (bit hairy). Visited Moelfre, Trearddur Bay, Red Wharf Bay, all stunning. The Gazelle is a 5 minute walk down the steps, great spot for a drink & throwing stones. In Menai itself there is Dylan's (try and get a seat overlooking the straits). Liverpool Arms and Anglesey Arms worth a visit. George & Dragon in Beaumaris very friendly. The Ship Inn (Red Wharf Bay) stunning spot. So many lovely places to visit. Thank you for a lovely spot to use to explore lovely Anglesey. We will be back!

The property
As soon as you start to descend the curving drive, passing the pretty pond, the breathtaking landscape starts to unfold.
You will be greeted with a beautiful Snowdonia mountain backdrop with Penrhyn Castle, Porth Penrhyn harbour and Bangor's Victorian pier in the foreground.
Once you approach the final corner, with gorgeous views along the Menai Strait, you will arrive at the manor house which is located in Glyngarth, between the popular towns of Menai Bridge and Beaumaris on Anglesey. The open plan kitchen, dining and sitting area is a lovely space with a view from every window.
We especially love the clever Velux balcony with fantastic views to Mount Snowdon and the Britannia suspension bridge. The main seating area has comfortable sofas and chairs, a Smart TV and telescope.
There is an additional snug area in the turret with two easy chairs and a SONOS system. The well equipped kitchen has an electric oven and hob, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine/dryer, microwave, toaster and Lavazza coffee machine.
While there is a dishwasher no one is going to object to washing up with the view from the sink!
There is a dining table and 6 chairs. There are two bedrooms.
The master room has a king size bed, TV and ensuite with a wet room with multi-function shower, loo and wash hand basin.
The twin room has two single beds and a TV. There is a further wet room with multi-function shower, stand alone bath, loo and wash hand basin.

A handy cool box with ice packs, BBQ tools and a picnic set are stored in the apartment's kitchen. The rolling lawns of the extensive grounds include a small orchard, pond and patio areas.
The newly built walkway and steps down to the bottom is great for a visit to the Gazelle for a spot of lunch.
