On your way up to the double bedroom, don't miss the fantastic view from the window. The open plan bedroom also houses a bath and basin, tucked up behind the bed. The toilet is downstairs. Idyllic in summer, snug and cosy in the winter, this lovely little holiday cottage is the perfect place to relax at any time of year.

Located on Holy Island, three miles from Trearddur Bay, Rhoscolyn is a small village with a church and primary school and is the most southerly place on Holy Island. Rhoscolyn also offers an excellent pub on the lane down to the beach, which is renowned for its gastro food, and the beach itself with its slipway, ideal for small dinghies and power boats, is a popular family destination throughout the summer owing to the sheltered cove and gently sloping sands. Also excellent cliff-top walks can be enjoyed and an abundance of wildlife can be seen, often including seals on the headland. Just two miles away is the village of Valley, which has a Post Office, chemist, shops and eating places, plus the nearby resort of Trearddur Bay is situated on the western shore of the island and is truly beautiful with a great sweep of low grassy coastline indented with rocky coves and fine Blue Flag sandy beaches. There are shops, pubs and restaurants in Trearddur Bay itself and nearby Holyhead offers a wider range of amenities, including a very good leisure centre, supermarkets, harbour front, a marina, the world’s second longest breakwater and exciting day trips to Dublin on the ferry. Watersports, bathing, sailing, windsurfing and horse riding are the main activities in the summer months, plus golfers will enjoy the excellent Holyhead 18 hole links golf course, and the area is also a great place for nature lovers with renowned birdwatching at the South Stack Lighthouse RSPB Reserve. An excellent location with plenty to see and do!

Reviews

This little cottage is set in a wonderfully peaceful setting. However, a little more thought on comfort would've made a difference to our stay. There is only a very small 2 seater sofa, which was a bit too cramped for 2 average sized adults, (separate dining table and chairs). The cottage is surrounded by a nice grassed lawn, but the garden furniture is old and very basic, some nice new furniture would certainly enhance the outside and guests could relax in comfort whilst enjoying the peaceful outdoors. 2 nights out of our 3 night stay the weather was cool and raining, just to take the chill off the cottage we turned up the thermostat a little, no heat materialised, so due to the notice written above the thermostat stating not to turn it up above 21 degrees as this will overload the system I could only presume it wasn't working. It wasn't a big issue as we just put on a fleece. On a negative point there were quite a lot of stipulations to adhere to upon checking out, emptying bins and removing to communal bin across the way, stripping bedding and putting in laundry bags alongside the towels, emptying dishwasher and leaving all furniture etc. exactly as you'd found it upon arrival, this would not necessarily have been too much of a negativity but a check out time as early as 0900 left us with no time to enjoy a last peaceful breakfast and run a bath - well, not unless we'd set the alarm for 0600! I'm sure other guests would appreciate a later check out time too.
