“We loved the cottage, the views and Beaumaris but there were a few niggles.”

...

The first bag of logs and kindling were supposed to be included as outlined in the cottage’s pack, they weren't and we had to buy some as it was chilly late in the evening We’d have liked a bbq Batteries in the tv remote were dead and there were no spares so we’d to buy some I didn’t appreciate having to remove the previous occupants’ dog hairs from the vacuum by hand before I could use it The mop and bucket in the cupboard next to the sofa smelled so bad that I’d to leave it outside Think the kitchen sink needs drain cleaner down it too.

- Ms Wilson, September 2019
“A lovely cottage with amazing views from the bedrooms and bathroom.”

Our dog loved the garden but was easily able to escape and explore further afield! It would have been nice to sit outside but unfortunately the garden furniture was in a state of disrepair and needs replacing. Location was good as a a short walk brought you into the centre of Beaumaris. All in all a great week.

- Mrs Malpass, August 2019

Thank you for your feedback and so pleased you enjoyed your holiday. As the season draws to a close we will be checking all items for repair or replacement. Owner relations
“Mesmerising beautiful ever changing views over the Menai Straits and into Beaumaris.”

The photographs don't do the views justice. Good sized garden for 6 yr old to run about. Quirky unusual cottage features. All in all a great location and week spent on the Isle.

- Miss Bradshaw, August 2019
“Gorgeous cottage in superb location, walking distance to the centre of town, although situated on a steep hill which certainly sorts out the fittest.”

Dogs loved it, 50 yards up the road is an old road/railway line ideal for walking dogs along, as well as all of Anglesey’s gorgeous beaches. Well equipped, very spacious cottage, ideally suited for all our needs. Would definitely use again.

- Mr Birtles, August 2019
“The cottage facilities were excellent and it is within easy walking distance of Beaumaris.”

However, it is situated at the top of a very steep hill which is quite taxing if on foot. As it is an old cottage with thick walls and small windows, the lounge is quite dark, although there is plenty of light in the extension where the downstairs bedroom, shower and kitchen are situated. We did not use the upstairs bedroom or bathroom - they have marvellous views but very limited headroom.

- Mrs Glazier, July 2019
“Quirky cottage as described in details .”

Great location for walking into Beaumaris . Kitchen had everything we needed . Bedroom lovely views from every window and very comfortable bed. Garden lovely but not secure enough for our two dogs may be fine for others.? Our only issue was the sitting room. We felt it needed some attention ie painting and new windows. Also the seating was extremely uncomfortable especially the armchairs. We would definitely return to this cottage but only if the seating was improved as this did affect our enjoyment during our stay.

- Mr Kent, July 2019
“The cottage was extremely well appointed with beautiful views over Beaumaris and over the Menai Straits.”

- Mrs Horvath, June 2019
“Cottage in an perfect position,views spectacular especially from the bath amazing.”

Everything you could need lovely little garden to sit out in and enjoy the countryside..

- Mrs Armstrong, June 2019
“Have stayed at Rallt Goch Bach many times and never been disappointed.”

Its a beautiful quirky cottage which we have come to love over the years. The views are spectacular, its peaceful, and I love to feed the birds and watch the red squirrels, pheasants and listen to the woodpecker. The accommodation is comfortable, the kitchen is to die for and so are the views. I love wallowing in the bath and looking out over the strait towards Snowdon. It will always be a special place in my heart.

- Mrs Driver, May 2019
“We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.”

The cottage exceeded our expectations as it was really well stocked and had a number of added extras for children which was fantastic, it even had a potty! Our experience with Menai Holidays was very good and the whole process was smooth and straight forward. We would definitely use you again and would recommend you to friends and family.

- Mrs Latham, May 2019
“Cottage is very comfortable, has everything you need and is exactly as described.”

Beautiful views and very convenient location.

- James Sladen,
“Well equipped beautiful cottage”

- Stephanie Curran,
“Beautiful cosy cottage in gorgeous surroundings - clean and well equipped - stunning views especially from the bathroom”

- Rachel Holden,
“Cottage was lovely and cosy.”

- Carolynn Holifield,
“Great location but a few niggly items need correcting - bed head needs connecting to bed to stop it banging every time you move, ceiling in bedroom needs painting, poor pillows, uncomfortable sofa.”

Having said all that we enjoyed it and would go again.

“Wonderful! Just our style of cottage, with lots of character and nooks and crannies.”

Very warm and comfortable, especially with the wood burning stove, and wonderful views over Beaumaris and the Menai Strait. We think there could be a safety issue with the stairs up to the first floor as they were immaculately clean and gloss painted, but slightly slippery. We think that if there could be strips of carpet attached to each of the stair treads, this would then make them easier to use.

“Location, location !”

!!! + lovely views & red Squirrels in the garden.

- Michael Reeves,
“A wonderful quirky cottage in a very quiet setting with magnificent views over the Menai Straits.”

Luxurious amenities, very well appointed therefore guaranteeing a restful holiday, even if the weather is not always good!! I have stayed in this cottage several times now; its always a winner!!

- Suzy E Driver,
“Nice location, downstairs nice layout, however online details should have mentioned restricted headroom in upstairs bedroom and very restricted headroom in upstairs bathroom, would not have booked cottage if I had known about the fact that had to bend double to get into upstairs bathroom (and I'm not tall) upstairs not really suitable for adults.”

- ,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. Situated in the eaves of the cottage, headroom can be a bit limited in the upstairs rooms. As the photos show the low beams we have never received a complaint, but will reconsider whether this needs to be mentioned in the cottage details. Owner relations
“Stayed in a large number of cottages and this only warranted 3 stars.”

- Roy Dakin,
“Could do with some money spent on the interior.”

Also, does anybody read the visitors book? Same problems are mentioned time and again.

- D Light,
“Generally very comfortable and well equipped.”

Some of crockery past its best. Television subject to interference on occasion (perhaps due to very hot weather). At beginning of our stay central heating came on during the night and cottage became excessively hot; we had to switch off, not the easiest controls to operate.

- Duglos Bdaid,
“Cottage lovely and quirky.”

Well equipped with stunning views (especially from the bath!). Deducted one star because of slippery stairs (do not attempt to descend wearing socks) - they are painted with gloss paint and some treads slightly sloping - they really should be covered by a non slip surface. Other than that - excellent

- Christine Holohan,
“Lovely cottage, great views & location”

- Helen Mcgeough,
“Well equipped cosy cottage but some attention to detail lacking”

- ,
“Picture perfect cottage that is well equipped.”

The location is perfect for walking into Beaumaris and well located to drive to a number of lovely beaches. We were a family of four, with two children under 10 and two dogs and the cottage met our needs beautifully.

“Ideal for short break.”

Well appointed

- Rhys Davies,
“Cosy cottage in quiet location with amazing views.”

- Carol Robinson,
“The Cottage was great but we had some problems with the keys (and the key box!”

). Tall people might have banged their heads a lot as there are a lot of low beams.

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.

Note: The wooden stairs to the upstairs twin and bathroom are narrow and quite steep.
