    “This property and location is by far the best I have ever stayed in absolutely perfect in every way .”

    The only problem was we couldn't get to the beach or walk anywhere because of large herds of cattle with bulls and calves roaming freely on this section of the coastal path. The path is well used with many walkers and their dogs who weren't bothered by the cattle , but we were terrified . We have dogs and a small baby so way to risky for us

    Thankyou for your lovely review. I realise the cattle were a bit intimidating but as a family who have lived amongst both sheep and cattle there for over 50 years I can tell you 100% that that there is no bull in the field.These are without doubt a very passive group of cows and calves and the farmer is extremely aware that a well used coastal public footpath goes right through this field and therefore he would not allow the public to be wandering through an area where there are dangerous cows. Nevertheless I completely understand your misgivings and I’m just sorry this may have impacted in anyway on your holiday because as you say it is the most perfect location – literally less than 10 minutes walk from the back of our house onto Silver Bay and the coastal path to Rhoscolyn! I hope one day you will return! Property Owner

The property

It is hard to describe the character, charm, and happiness that oozes from Borth Arian - you simply must visit to see how lucky we are that the family share this much loved holiday cottage with us.

Set in a peaceful location near Rhoscolyn, on Holy Island, on the north west corner of Anglesey, it has fantastic views and is just yards from the coastal footpath and a five minute walk to the beach.

"I absolutely love this house!

It just opens its arms to welcome you all year round.

Sit and on the veranda and soak up the sea views.

In the winter snuggle up by the fire.

This is a house that is so loved and waits to welcome you." The accommodation is all on the ground floor and with full central heating will suit every generation in every season. Borth Arian was designed and built by Sir Leslie Patrick Abercrombie, best known for the re-planning of London after it was devastated by enemy bombardment in World War II.

You can read about Sir Abercrombie and this history of the house on our blog here. This is the perfect house for making special holiday memories that will never fade away.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

RHOSCOLYN

Valley 2 miles; Trearddur Bay 3 miles; Holyhead 5 miles.

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!
