“The cottage was decorated to a very high standard, fixtures and fittings were beautiful.”

They had everything you required and my guests thoroughly enjoyed staying there. A few downsides. The smell outside was constant for the whole of our stay (don't know if it was the septic tank). The bottom step (flagstone) into the cottage needs fixing/concreting into place, as my elderly aunt nearly had a fall, as it wobbled. The quilts (although beautiful) were too warm and could possibly be changed for lighter ones in summer months.

“My family and I had a great time at Hen Gilfach at the end of June this year.”

This lovely house was the perfect fit for our family get together, with ages ranging from 6 months to 94 years. Fortunately the weather was mostly dry and sunny, but had it not been Tracy had supplied plenty of books, DVDs and board games to entertain us. The play area outside and the bedroom with a dolls house and toys were loved by my granddaughter and last but not least, the hot tub was amazing and had gorgeous views of the countryside and sea beyond. We were sad to leave!

“Brilliant! New hot tub amazing.”

.. Big! Towels for use with hot tub, excellent idea. The interior is beautiful and spacious. Kitchen big and plenty of equipment. Bedrooms fab too. Views amazing. Lovely welcome from owner too. Thanks for a super weekend. See you next year!

- Mrs Marsh, June 2019
“We enjoyed a week at Hen Gilfach to celebrate a special birthday.”

It was a family affair with ages ranging from 2 yrs - 70 yrs. The accommodation was ideal, spacious and clean. Kitchen was well equipped.The garden was great for the children whilst the adults enjoyed the hot tub! Walks nearby and beach not too far, We really had a lovely time. Thank you!

“Excellent”

- Sheena,
“We had a lovely time and the house was a good size and set-up for us (four couples each with a baby/toddler).”

The only issues we wanted to pick up on were that the septic tank outside is located right next to the (lovely) children's play area and it was rather smelly at times. The other issue we had was that with 8 adults there was only one shower (in the downstairs bathroom). There was plenty of space to install one in the main bathroom upstairs which we would highly recommend. I appreciate there's a shower head on the bath upstairs but it's not the most practical for an adult. Great for kids though. These were the only downsides to a lovely stay. The house is very well equipped, the hot tub was lovely and warm, extremely clean and had a wonderful view of the sunsets in the evenings. Great location near to some of the most beautiful beaches. We'd highly recommend the Wavecrest Cafe and Lobster Pot as well as the Oyster Catcher. Thanks for a lovely week away.

“Fantastic cottage wonderfull view from the hot tub !”

- Richard Wormald,
“Fantastic venue, comfortable and romantic accommodation.”

- Sally,
“An excellent property in a superb location.”

The quality of the furnishings and fittings was very good and the cottage was not short of anything we could have needed. The owner was very welcoming and helpful.

- David Lewis,
“Great location very clean had everything you would need in the kitchen.”

Very comfortable and beautifully furnished

“Cottage was great but lane leading to it left a lot to be desired.”

Sports suspension and low profile tyres do not mix well with large potholes.

“Attractive photos presented by Menai Holiday unfortunately the reality was different.”

The downstairs two bedrooms had a damp fungus smell. One of the bedroom was particularly very bad as the mould was all over the window, with black dirt, dust and cobweb so our little one had to move upstairs due to her asthma. There is a serious luck of lighting in the downstairs shower room. Again mould all behind the sink, shower cubical, tiles which clearly is not being dealt with. I could provide photos but I do not want to completely put people off. I sincerely hope it will be dealt with as Menai Holiday and the owner have been informed. Kitchen again very bad lighting and flickering little ceiling light. So cooking during a date is fine but if you come to the cottage later on you seriously find it difficult. The dirt track which leads to a house was particularly bad! We have been to many places all over the Wales and Anglesey but that was something one off. (we have 4x4) the view is lovely if you have the weather to sit outside but it does not have a lovely maintain feel around the property. Our children were looking forward to using the outdoor play area which was not there( no one informed us about it) There will be a new one being build. For £1200 per week we certainly did not feel it was worth of money. We believe you get what you pay but that's was not the case. From our view we would not go back and not recommend it to our friends even thought we still had a great time as we try to blank it all.

“Lovely location, excellent furnishings and everything you needed for a short break”

“Compact and very pleasant Thoroughly enjoyed our stay”

“Just a perfect location.”

Beautiful Views. Lovely cottage. Our second visit and definitely not our last

- Lisa Mikolajewicz,
“Would be 5 but for the very bumpy track to the apartment and the fact that it is advertised as a peaceful location which it is until families in the 5 bedrooms barn located close by enjoy their holiday.”

We couldn't relax outside as we felt we were overlooking them whilst admiring the views and the noise of children playing broke the peace. Feel that this needs to be made clearer, as lovely as the Stable is we would not of booked.

Great hot tub for the adults and brilliant play area for the kids and all with lovely countryside and sea views.

- Elizabeth Knobbs,
“Superbly equipped and very clean.”

The shower was a nice bit of luxury.

- S Brown,
“Wonderful property with excellent facilities.”

It was secluded and the perfect setting for a week away. We were able to explore beautiful Anglesey and return home for relaxing evenings the hot tub was a bonus! We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning again soon.

- Anne Stanley,
“The cottage was amazing, we had a wonderfull time, relaxing and enjoying the peace and quiet, great for all our children who are begging to go back, I'm in the process of booking it again for next year.”

I can say it was so good that my brother is hoping to come over from America to stay next year.

- Natasha,

The property

In spring and summer, the quiet lanes in this beautiful corner of north west Anglesey are a mass of wild flowers, and as you turn the corner of the drive to Hen Gilfach you'll see the ocean in front of you.

This is your first glimpse of the view from this fantastic holiday house! "A great spot for meeting up with friends or family - a really nice spacious house with hot tub and the views are so good we doubt you will want to go far!" Hen Gilfach, a barn conversion with a careful mix of old and new, is such an interesting cottage to stay in.

Pretty windows, rough-coated walls, wonderfully comfy beds, contemporary furniture - and look for the collection of keys!

You could want for nothing more, except good friends or family to share it with. The views are breathtaking, and we doubt you will want to go far from the cottage!

There's a Blue Flag beach just around the corner at Church Bay, as well as two good places to eat.

The Anglesey Coastal Path is nearby, and many of Anglesey's best attractions are within easy reach. If you like to holiday with friends and family and still enjoy the privacy of your own cottage you may like to look at nearby Hen Gilfach Stable.
