“In addition to all the benefits of the cottage we enjoyed the amazing views of the Snowdonia hills from the comfort of the settee!”

- Mr Knott, May 2021
Miss Worthington May 2021

“ThIs charming, spotlessly clean cottage is in a lovely quiet location opposite a church (which is sadly now closed) with lots of birds to spot and superb ever changing views of the Snowdonia mountains according to the weather conditions.”

The landscaped garden is a pleasure to sit in and there is a very ample private parking space which could easily fit 2 cars if needed. The interior is modern and fresh with a well equipped kitchen and bright living area. The wifi is excellent. The beds are extremely comfortable which meant we slept very well. Although the sofas are a little tired and you tend to sink into them everything else is a lot newer. We did have an issue with the toilet flush system while we were there but this was rectified by the owners and their plumber. We loved our stay here and would happily book this delightful cottage again.

“Wonderful location, walks straight from the door.”

Cottage was very clean, beds comfortable and garden private. Excellent parking. Beaumaris is only a 20 minute walk away.

“The cottage was delightfully situated in a quiet and beautiful area - the views were excellent.”

The cottage was clean and warm and well appointed. All facilities required for a nice holiday were provided. The only problem we had was with the large sofa in the lounge. It was unfortunately difficult to sit on and practically impossible to get off due to its poor and worn condition.

“Fantastic cottage to stay, it’s not overlooked so you have privacy.”

Great seating area outside to enjoy a drink. Only 1 mile from Beaumaris, easy access by foot and car. Great local walks, locals very friendly. Very enjoyable stay will definitely go back.

“The cottage was very comfortable, immaculately clean and had everything we needed.”

The owners gave us lots of recommendations which we followed up and some of the highlights of these were Newborough beach and Llanddona beach. Our little puppy Frankie loved the garden and you could tell the owners had thought about dogs when renovating the property. The island of Anglesey is beautiful and despite some very mixed weather we had a lovely time.

“We rented church cottage last minute due to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

We feel so lucky with our last minute holiday!! The house was very clean and we felt confident that it was being cleaned thoroughly between rentals. The beds were really comfy and we all slept well. The cottage was so peaceful- opposite a lovely little church with no through traffic as it is at the bottom of a lane. It felt like a lovely retreat. The kids really enjoyed their time there and had a lovely little garden to play out in which was a massive bonus. The kitchen was well equipped and the appliances were easy to use. Thank you so much- would really recommend this house to anyone.

“Church Gate Cottage sits in a small hamlet opposite St Catherine’s Church.”

The cottage is lovely, with a small, sun trap garden with a dining table and chairs. The area is very tranquil with views of Snowdonia. Good parking facility and a large shed for bikes, wetsuits etc. There is a outside tap to clean off sand etc. The owners emailed in advance of our arrival which was appreciated. Welcome pack detailed all aspects of the property. We had a great week at Church Gate Cottage and would be happy to return.

“The cottage was exceptional and exceeded all expectations.”

What a great location and such a comfortable place to stay. It’s roomy, very clean, has everything you need for a vacation and just a beautiful part of the island. Lovely neighbours too. It is highly likely we’ll be back again to this cottage. Cannot recommend it enough.

“We have had a very relaxing stay here in your lovely cottage by the church.”

It is so quiet and comfortable, we couldn't ask for anything better! It's well furnished with everything that you might need and well thought through! I am sure that we will visit again.

The property

Church Gate Cottage sits in the little village of Llanfaes, within easy reach of the town of Beaumaris (1 mile).

It is one of a small cluster of traditional Welsh cottages, constructed in the early 19th century, next to the historic St Catherine’s Church. This countryside retreat is the perfect base for exploring North Wales’ glorious coastline and rugged mountains.

The all-ground-floor accommodation comes with two well-presented bedrooms comprising of a king-size double and a twin bedroom. After an action-packed afternoon look forward to unwinding into the evening within the open-plan living room, where the wood-burning stove offers cosy tranquillity during the winter months. Fulfilling your culinary needs is the contemporary kitchen where the designated chef of the group can rustle up a delicious meal whilst socialising with everyone around the dining table. After dinner, sink into the sofa and tune into the TV whilst the wood-burning stove offers a gentle warmth. To the outside of the property is a wonderfully peaceful enclosed garden, where you can enjoy a spot of al fresco dining during a balmy afternoon whilst your canine companions stretch their legs on the lawn. If you don’t feel like cooking one evening head into the town of Beaumaris where you will be spoilt for choice by the amenities that await you, catering to all tastes and requirements. Locally there is plenty to do, whatever your interests.

Venture along the coastline and soak up the sun at Red Wharf Bay or explore further along the 130 mile coastal path.

About the location

BEAUMARIS

Menai Bridge 4 miles.

Beaumaris is a well known historic town on the Isle of Anglesey situated on the Menai Strait and overlooking the Snowdonia mountain range, making for the most stunning of sunrises. With its medieval castle (now a World Heritage site) dating back to the reign of Edward I and its Victorian pier, gaol and courthouse, it is also known as a major centre for yachting. Beaumaris is rich in history and retains much of its medieval street pattern. It’s setting, diversity of architectural styles and periods, differing scale, open spaces, varying roofs and overall quality contribute greatly to the town’s character. There is a good selection of shops, restaurants and public houses, as well as fishing opportunities and boat trips in the town, plus a golf course nearby. Along the coast is a large bay called Red Wharf Bay; its Welsh name is Traeth Coch (Red Beach) and the area is renowned for its glorious sunsets. The bay is very shallow and at low tide, almost 25 square kilometres (10 sq. mi.) of sand is uncovered providing safe bathing, perfect for wonderful family fun, fishing and miles of stunning scenic walks. Further afield is the port of Holyhead, which has regular ferry links to Dublin. Beaumaris is a good central base for touring Wales, in a beautiful location on the south coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey, within easy reach of the spectacular mountains of Snowdonia.
