"Great place to stay, everything you could need."
Location perfect for exploring anglesey.

"Thank you again ,will definitely be returning such a lovely place spotless with everything you need"
-
"Just come back from a wonderful holiday at Bryn Eglwys Bach."
The property is spotlessly clean and very modern with everything you need. We visited a few places with my favourite being Beaumaris only 15 minutes away. This is our second time at the cottage and we have booked it again for next year. Can't wait! Thank you Carol and Mark for a fantastic holiday. Excellent. Highly recommended.
-
"Such a lovely house, had everything you needed and the host was nice and friendly."
Nice secluded spot but only a short drive to all amenities. Hot tub and house spotless and beds so comfy.
-
"My family of four had a great stay in August, the location is great with a lot of the attractions such as Newborough Beach (with the light house and wild horses), The Anglesey Transport Museum, Beaumaris Castle and Plas Newydd House and Gardens within 30 minutes and plenty to do what ever the weather."
The facilities at Bryn Eglwys Bach are great with a hot tub, good size fridge and freezer as well as washing machine and dishwasher.

"Ah, where to start?"
! Such a beautiful, clean and comfortable self-catering holiday property (with a washing machine and dishwasher). We stayed for 7 nights in Aug 2024 as a family of 4 and instantly felt relaxed due to the remoteness of the location (but still has so much within easy reach) and the actual home itself. It was extremely clean and modern and had everything we needed to prepare a packed lunches each day and a variety of meals throughout the week. The hot tub was a great treat for our children and for us after climbing Snowdon! Carol, the property owner is so lovely and helpful and even though they live next door - we very rarely saw her, only once during the week when she arranged a visit to check levels on the hot tub. You must book this :)
-
"We had a wonderful holiday and this house was absolutely perfect!"
Everything you would ever need; it was super clean and a pleasure to stay in. Carol was incredibly warm and welcoming as a host and couldn’t do enough to help us settle in and have a great time. We thoroughly recommend this holiday house in such a beautiful and peaceful location.
-
"Carol was lovely, welcome pack on arrival."
Lovely and quiet a great base. Views of Snowdonia from the hot tub . Anglesey is easy to navigate, there is a full map on the premises. Easy to use amenities. Sad to leave highly recommended 5stars easy.
-
"Excellent and comfortable accommodation."
Met all our needs. The welcome pack and fresh flowers were a nice touch. Carol was very helpful. Pristine clea liness. Great location, peaceful surroundings yet ideal for reaching all parts of the island and North Wales. Lovely views of Snowdonia from the superb hot tub.
-
"Are second visit and will be booking again love this place"
-
"Thank you to Carol and Mark for their hospitality."
Amazing welcome pack of wine, flowers, Welsh cakes, coffee pods, tea, sugar, milk and water. On mentioning we had forgotten our own tea & coffee we were supplied with more. Cottage was clean, homely and was equipped with everything you could want and more you never dreamed you would want. The hot tub was amazing and just what was needed after walking. Plenty to do and see in the area, note if you want to see red squirrels the best place to do so is The Dingle, but buy some walnuts from the Asda before you go into the wooded area. Great place to stay and even though the weather was not great it did not stop us getting out and enjoying the surrounding area. We will definitely retun in the future. Thanks again Doreen & John from Bedford
-
"We had a wonderful week in this modern, well equipped cottage."
The beds very comfortable and the hot tub was a bonus after a day of sight seeing and walking. Carol was helpful and informative but not intrusive. We visited Newborough forest and had a long walk on the beach also The Dingle is a nature reserve with red squirrels. Cadnant gardens are worth a visit as are Plas Newydd and Penrhyn Castle. A very memorable week! Thank you Carol.
-
"All lovely, including our host."
-
"Fantastic property with everything you could possibly need for a break in Anglesey."
New throughout, spotlessly clean; great kitchen, dining and lounge area. Comfortable beds and great showers. Hot tub available with stunning views of Snowdonia. This property is a real find. Thank you Carol.
-
"Fabulous week!"
Lovely accommodation with everything and more for a comfortable stay. Friendly and always available host but never intrusive. Perfectly situated to get to everywhere on Anglesey within 30 minutes. We would love to visit again
-
"We loved every minute of our stay here, the house is delightful and has everything you need, amazing views, peaceful but easy access to beaches and mountains."
The house was immaculate, well thought out indoor and outdoor spaces, perfect for relaxing and spending time together, comfortable beds and sofas. We cannot recommend highly enough, loved the extra touches of flowers, milk etc. Carol is wonderful host and this house is a little jem.
-
"The house was in excellent condition, all facilities first class, everything was so clean and all the utensils that we needed were there."
Everything was excellent the hot tub, the snooker table and carol the host met us on arrival, went through everything and gave us ideas of places to visit, and she also checked in mid week to make sure everything was okay as well as the chlorine on the hot tub! There was a lovely welcome pack on arrival of tea, cakes and more, would highly recommend and would love to go back some time in the future.
-
"Such an amazing bank holiday weekend spent in this beautiful cottage."
We’ve stayed in a lot of Sykes Cottage and this has been our favourite so far! Perfect location, nice and quiet but only a 10/15 minutes drive from everything. Spotlessly clean, fantastic hot tub, especially with the sheep and bunnies coming over to you. Really comfy beds and blackout blinds to get a great night sleep. Carol the owner was so so lovely too, really helpful. We would recommend in a heartbeat and would love to come back!
-
"Lovely people lovely cottage and absolutely immaculate."
A great position for visiting the best of Anglesey yet totally peaceful. Carol could not have been more helpful yet unobtrusive.
-
"Property was spotless clean ,nice and modern with everything you could need , countryside views from every aspect and so peaceful and quiet ."
Location was good to explore all the island or go over to the mainland. Hot tub was great to chill out in after day out. Would definitely recommend.
-
"We have just returned from an amazing break at Bryn Eglwys Bach."
What can I say… A truly stunning holiday home; absolutely immaculately kept in every sense! A perfect base for exploring the delights on the beautiful Isle of Anglesey. Carol obviously takes such pride in making sure her guests have a fantastic stay. She was extremely welcoming and her hospitality and recommendations for our stay were absolutely second to none. The hot tub was fantastic and we very much enjoyed the wonderful views from the property and regular visits from the sheep & lambs just beyond the garden! Overall a 5 star review from us all and we will definitely be booking to stay in the future!
-
"We really enjoyed our stay in Anglesey."
The property was excellent, clean, well presented and in a fantastic location for exploring both Snowdonia and Anglesey. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub and features such as a coffee machine really gave it a homely feel. Carol was an excellent host and we’d really recommend this as a base for Anglesey.
-
"Beautiful setting, the cottage had everything we needed, the bed was so comfortable and the hot tub the best I've been in and immaculate."
Some lovely extras for over Xmas, thank you Carol
-
"The property was absolutely beautiful."
Immaculately presented and so modern. The views were breath taking and the place itself was very remote and quiet. Such a lovely place to stay. Too nice for such a loud family like us
-
"We had a wonderful stay in a beautiful clean warm cottage."
Every need was thought of, and it was delightful to bubble in the hot tub after a day’s sightseeing. Close to good eating pub, central for touring. Hosts were lovely, and we would have no hesitation in returning to or recommending this cottage. Thank you!
-
"We really enjoyed our stay."
Felt welcomed. It was a Great location and we easily explored the many attractions in the area. It was clean & comfortable. We borrowed Carol & Marks filter coffee machine. Love our coffee. Also a mattress topper. Hot tub had the best jets. Really helped my arthritis. Loved visiting the lighthouse, Beaumaris castle, penryhn castle & slate museum…. And more. Definitely would recommend.
-
"Carol welcomed us when we arrived and explained how things in the cottage worked, which was very helpful."
Everything in the cottage was of a high standard, extremely clean and well equipped. The heating was very efficient and easy to use. The king size bed was extremely comfortable and we slept very well. There were views from the garden across to Snowdon. Carol's knowledge of the local area was helpful to us, especially about where to eat. We tried most of her recommendations and were not disappointed. We would love to come and stay again.
-
"An amazing place to stay!"
A wonderfully quiet and peaceful setting. A home from home, very clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything you would need and more. The hot tub was a blessing after climbing Snowdon. Carole and Mark were very welcoming and friendly.
-
"Wonderful property in a beautiful location."
We really enjoyed our stay and will hopefully return soon. Thank you.
-
"What a brilliant holiday."
A lovely place to stay. Very modern and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed. We were made very welcome. We enjoyed it so much that we have booked again for next year. We are really looking forward to it. Many thanks to Carol and Mark. 10 out of 10. Excellent.
-
"We had a lovely week, the property itself has everything you may need (even oven gloves which I had forgotten) the furnishings, fittings etc give it a high quality luxury feel."
The added touches like toilet roll, milk in the fridge, fresh flowers when we arrived were lovely, there were even a selection of toys for the kids. The main bedroom is very spacious with a large en-suite, the twin bedroom is smaller but still lovely and benefits from a TV which our kids loved in the mornings. The hot tub was amazing, it was used several times a day especially by the kids, they also loved seeing the sheep and cows in the surrounding fields and amazing views of the mountains from the terrace. Anglesey is very picturesque with has so much to see, we especially loved the rockpools at Penmon point, crabbing off Beaumaris pier and visiting and walking up South Stack lighthouse. Would also recommend visiting Cable bay (rockpools at low tide) and Church bay. We would definitely recommend staying here to anyone.
-
"Beautiful holiday let."
Stunning location. Excellent hosts. Perfect for young children (my girls are 9 & 6). Loads of places to visit close by. Thanks Carol and Mark for a fantastic family holiday.

"A modern and tastefully decorated cottage in a quiet rural location with beautiful views from the hot tub."
It’s within easy reach of the main roads to access the whole island for exploring. The cottage was spotlessly clean, and had all the facilities you would need. The owners were helpful and made us feel very welcome without being intrusive. Would highly recommend and will be top of our list to stay next time we visit.
-
"Wonderful property,that was immaculate and modern."
In just the right setting,not too far away from all amenities etc! But lovely and quiet,with cracking views towards the Eryri National Park. Fabulous hot tub! And the owners couldn’t have been more helpful!
-
"Really great place to stay, the accommodation was really nice and the owners Mark and Carol could not have been more helpful and friendly."
Can recommend it and the island of Anglesey is a wonderful place to visit . We had a smashing holiday and there are some nice places to go to. Could not fault it .
-
"Recently returned from this lovely cottage."
Due to its close proximity to the Britannia Bridge and A55, it is very well placed to travel to all locations on Anglesey, as well as onto the mainland, within a very short time. The cottage is very modern and beautifully presented. It was spotlessly clean on our arrival, and there was a welcome pack including fresh flowers, wine and coffee pods. The owners are very friendly and were always happy to chat, but they are not intrusive despite living next door. The rear terrace is a sun trap, with sun (in June) from about 9am until sunset. There is also a patio table and chairs at the front that is ideally placed to enjoy an early morning cuppa. The hot tub is fantastic and sparklingly clean; it is emptied and cleaned after every guest. We will definitely return next time we are staying in this part of Wales.
-
"This excellent accommodation is well placed to visit Anglesey and Snowdonia."
We were made very welcome by the owners who were only too pleased to advise on best places to eat at and where to visit. The accommodation was excellent, comfortable, spotless and well maintained. We would happily return.
-
"The property was great, very clean, modern and fully equipt compared to a lot of places I've been to, toilet roll, hand soap and even coffee pods are offered which is absolutely lovely."
Carol was a great host, lovely to talk to. The view from the garden was amazing, you could see for miles. We used the hot tub everyday and it was incredibly relaxing, Carol changes the water for every customer no matter how much or little the last customer used it. The only thing I would point out to future guests is the main bed is a bit hard/ springy but that was personal preference and due to another review saying this we took out own duvet to allow us to use the other duvet as a mattress topper and it was fine. I would absolutely love to come again, I'd even move there if I could! Shame I had to come back to reality :).
-
"The cottage is in a beautiful location, countryside views from every window, just a short drive to shops, restaurants etc."
The cottage is well looked after, clean and modern, with everything you need. Hot tub was fantastic. Netflix on all TVs, which was a bonus. Carol was helpful and friendly, and there if we needed anything. A Wonderful stay!
-
"Excellent centrally based if you plan to try varied walking routes particularly around the many varied Coastal Paths and lighthouses etc."
Set in a rural situation with fantastic views all round especially over the Welsh Mountains to the south of Anglesey with many farm animals and rabbits for company. Accommodation itself is ultra clean with all modern facilities. Most enjoyable visit helped by very helpful and friendly owners.
-
"Absolutely beautiful place to stay!"
Incredible views when relaxing in the hot tub...we enjoyed watching the sheep in the field behind too. Everything in the house and more had been thought of, it was better than we even imagined! It was very clean and having two bathrooms was such a bonus. Carol is so welcoming, helpful and kind. Would definitely love to come back. Thank you!
-
"We had a fabulous week at Bryn Eglwys Bach."
Nothing was too much trouble for Carol, the accommodation was comfortable and the hot tub was appreciated by all of us. Huge bonus was finding out Carol put a fresh tub of water for each set of guests and the accommodation was immaculate. Would wholeheartedly recommend as a great base to explore Anglesey and to come back to rest and recharge for the next day.
-
"We had a wonderful week stay."
The property had so much more than we expected, it was all so new and clean. The welcome pack treats were very much appreciated. Our stay was comfortable, the location was perfect and the hot tub an extra treat after a day out walking. We will certainly book again.
-
"Loved our stay here."
The location was perfect; quiet but a short drive away from pubs, shops, beaches, and mountains. The place was spotlessly clean with everything you could need. The hottub was a bonus, along with the beautiful view of the mountains. Carol gave us privacy but was there if we needed her. We found the bed a little uncomfortable, however that could be our personal preference. We would stay again
-
"We had a 3 night stay."
Excellent location and the views over the Straits to Snowdon with snow on. 10 out of 10 for the accommodation
-
"Fantastic stay, Carol was very welcoming and attentive."
The property is in a lovely quiet location for the ultimate chill, hot tub was AMAZING after we put the little one to bed some time to really relax. Very spacious and comfy beds, modern with everything you would need. You are in a good location for Anglesey but also for the mainland too, a great base. Thank you Carol!
-
"Lovely cottage and friendly owner."
Welcome pack was a nice touch. Also the lady i booked through at Sykes gave recommendations on where to go. Would definitely recommend and would stay again as a great base for sightseeing.
-
"Brilliant 7 night stay!"
The cottage is modern but still super cosy and had all the amenities you’d need plus a lot you might not have thought of! The hot tub was amazing after a long days walking even on a cold February night. It’s situated in nice quiet countryside but was never more than half an hour to get anywhere on the island and is significantly closer to Menai Bridge and Beaumaris. Carole was an excellent host who struck a perfect balance of affording us privacy whilst still always being on hand should we need anything. Highly recommended!
-
"Amazing relaxing stay!"
House was very comfortable and clean, had everything you could wish for. Hosts were very friendly but did not impose on your privacy. Hot tub was fabulous! Will definitely come back again and recommend to friends and family.
-
"Only one word for our stay."
. Perfect! The property was excellently equipped with every single detail catered for, comfy bed and beautiful location too. The host Carol, was really warm and friendly and we took her advice on which places to visit and we were really happy with her suggestions. Hot tub was brilliant touch and it was fab on freezing nights when we wanted to stargaze. We will certainly be returning.
-
"The house looks great, is really comfortable and is kept beautifully clean."
Rooms are cosy and warm with smart heating making it easy to set the right temperature. A warm welcome from Carol, who checked we had everything we needed and left us some nice treats including delicious Welsh shortbread and a nice blend of Welsh tea. Good WiFi provided but also found we could connect to our phone's mobile network as we weren't too far off grid. A highlight was sitting in the hot tub at night stargazing - even on a cold night you can be warm in the tub and the low light pollution makes for a fantastic view of the stars.
-
"Loved this place, Carol greeted us upon arrived, very nice lady - a welcome basket was there for us, nice thought and considerate."
Property was extremely clean, modern and spacious. Hot tub was used every night after a day out sightseeing. Perfect. Would definitely recommend this property and will be visiting there again.
-
"We had a lovely time at Bryn Eglwys Bach."
We met one of the owners Carol when we first arrived who advised us if we needed anything to just let her know. The welcome pack was a lovely touch also. The property is very modern and comfortable. The hot tub is a lovely feature especially if you have had a day out walking and exploring Anglesey. We would love to book the property again in the future and would recommend the property if you are wanting a relaxing break.
-
"Excellent location, property, well maintained and spotlessly clean."
Carol and Mark very welcoming and friendly couldn't do enough for you. Would definitely recommend the property. Regards David, Irene & Andrew.
-
"We were Welcomed by owners on arrival and received a lovely mini hamper."
Accommodation was immaculate. Lots of little extras were included making it feel like home. The views from the back garden were amazing with both cows and sheep saying hello which my granddaughter loved. Although the weather wasn’t fantastic we had a great week where we visited many lovely places including Foal Farm, Pila Palas and Abel Falls. Fantastic holiday and would highly recommend. A big thank you to the owners.
-
"We had such a great 4 night stay, can’t recommend Bryn Eglwys Bach enough."
The place was absolutely spotless, and I mean sparkling clean! Nice little welcome package waiting for us on arrival. Very cosy has everything you need. Lovely views from the hot tub, and in a great location, Minutes drive from most places. The owner carol was lovely and gave us some great recommendations for places to visit and eat. All in all a great holiday from start to finish. Thanks again!

"Perfect accommodation, so clean, bright and comfortable, well equipped, lovely welcome pack, very nice wine, coffee and Welsh tea."
Ideal location for visiting locations in north Wales as well as the island of Anglesey. Loved the hot tub, lovely views while relaxing in hot tub. Will definitely return. John and Carolyn

"Immaculate property handily located as a base for exploring Anglesey & Snowdonia."
The post code directs satnavs & google you to a property on the right as you come up the road but it's just slightly further up on the left
-
"We had a wonderful time at Bryn Eglwys Bach."
Everything was spotlessy clean. Loved the basket full of goodies and the fridge with milk & bottles of water was a nice touch. The hot tub was amazing especially when the cows came for a nosey. The cottage is in a very quiet & peaceful area with wonderful views over Snowdonia. The location is ideal and nowhere in Angelsey is too far away. Holyhead is only a 30 min drive and South Stack Lighthouse only 35 mins. Everything was just perfect. We enjoyed sitting out the front in the morning watching the sunrise with a morning cuppa of Welsh tea supplied by Carol & Mark. We did have great weather during our stay. This was our first visit to Angelsey and wondered why we'd never been before. There's so much to see and do. A week just wasn't enough. For a great meal visit the Four Crosses only a few minutes drive away. The Sizzlers are fantastic. We ate there twice. The Pili Palas Nature World which is nearby is also worth a visit especially those with children. Beaumaris which goes without saying is amazing, the castle, prison and courthouse are a must. Lovely pubs & shops in the picturesque little town with river cruises available at reasonable prices. We were spoilt for choice when it came beaches and opted for a day at Llanddwyn beach. Get there early as the car park does get busy however the beach goes on for miles with enough space for everyone. Go for a walk and you'll find several hidden beaches too. I was a little reluctant to write this review because we wanted to keep Bryn Eglwys Bach our little secret however it deserves this review and we wish Carol & Mark all the best in the future. Next time we visit Angelsey Bryn Eglwys Bach will be our first choice for accommodation. Thank you Carol & Mark.
-
"Absolutely beautiful property and location."
Loved the hot tub, we sat in it the first night looking out over the mountains, glorious. The owners are so lovely and brought over toys for our girls and the location is just perfect for exploring, 10 mins away from all of the best attractions and beaches. The accommodation itself is fab, couldn't reccomend more. We will definitely be back!
-
"Thank you for sharing your home with us, we had a lovely week."
The accommodation was super! Clean, bright, and obviously prepared with thought and attention to detail. Stepping in and finding fresh flowers was a very nice touch. After our busy days out, relaxing into the hot tub was just a real treat, some super views and some peace and quiet. Local wildlife in the form of sheep, rabbits, and the occasional avian all made for a wonderful holiday. Thanks again, from all of us...
-
"What a superb cottage in a stunning location!"
Lovingly restored to a high standard by the welcoming owners. A real home from home, every little detail has been thought of. The hot hub with a gorgeous view of the Snowdonia range was an added bonus. We would love to return at some point, we had a fantastic time. Thank you.
-
"We booked Bryn Eglwys Bach as a last minute weekend break and we were so pleased we did."
Our hosts Carol & Mark were so welcoming and could not have done any more to make it so enjoyable. We were their first ever guests as they have been busy renovating the property and have done an amazing job to very a very high standard. The welcome pack on arrival was a nice surprise and was much appreciated. The location was rural with outstanding views and the beautiful weather made it just perfect. We made full use of the hot tub and found it so relaxing on our return from a long day out. We will definitely return in the future and have no hesitation in recommending such a beautiful gem of a place.
Thank you so much for your kind comments. It was lovely to meet you and so nice to have such lovely people as our first guests. We hope to see you again. Property Owner

About the location
LLANFAIRPWLLGWYNGYLL
Menai Bridge 2 miles; Beaumaris 6 miles.
Affectionately known by the locals as Llanfair PG, the Anglesey village of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrnd robwllllantysiliogogogoch, also known by its shortened name of Llanfairpwllgwyngyll has the longest place name in Europe. It was artificially named back in 1860 as a publicity stunt for the railway station and translates from Welsh as "St Mary's church in the hollow of the white hazel near to the fierce whirlpool and the church of St Tysilio of the red cave". Situated close to the Menai Straits, just off the Britannia Bridge, Llanfair PG has much to offer families. After having your photo taken next to the village nameplate at the railway station, head into the popular visitors centre for local tourist information. A short walk past the octagonal Toll House, towards Menai Bridge, will bring you to the Marquis of Anglesey statue and column which, for a small fee, you can climb the 115 steps to the top for superb views of the countryside and coastline. Nelson’s Monument can be easily reached on the banks of the Menai Straits, passing St Mary’s Church on the way. With several good pubs with restaurants, craft and gift shops and cafes, plus the beautiful Anglesey coastline within walking distance, there is plenty to entertain you all year round.
This property offers the following short breaks:
- Winter
- Off-season
- Last minute
- Christmas
