“The bed 100% needs a new mattress - lovely cottage but I won’t return until it’s confirmed to have had a new mattress.”

Thanks other than the mattress excellent !

“Just very frustrating acquiring a signal through WiFi other than that brilliant”

- Mr Rigby, October 2019
“We had a wonderful few days staying at Plas Bach.”

It was a brilliant base to discover Anglesey from, and our dog loved coming home from the long walks to the underfloor heating - as did we. The cottage kitchen was adequately equipped and the the cottage was spotlessly clean and comfortable. My husband, over 6ft, had to keep his head down, but he coped with the bath under the sloped ceiling without problem! We had a lovely meal at the pub a few minutes walk away. We would love to come again.

“Clean comfy and very relaxing.”

- Mrs Moran, September 2019
“The cottage is lovely , super location and amazingly secure garden for dogs to enjoy.”

However, a couple of things would help make it 5* . A washing machine instead of the dishwasher would be helpful especially for people staying for more longer than a weekend. A bucket chair, to complement the sofa would be nice, that way you could both relax after spending the day doing some of the wonderful coastal walks in the area. A blind on the velux window upstairs would be useful.

- Mrs Pillow, September 2019
“Lovely little cottage, nice and cozy, perfect for walkers, which my partner isn’t, due to health issues, so for us I think we’d somewhere closer ,to , maybe Beaumaris were there’s a bit more going on.”

But apart from that it’s a lovely setting and peaceful, and perfect for our dog

- Miss Ferguson, September 2019
“The cottage was very poorly equipped compared to other Skye’s or Menai cottages in which we have stayed.”

For example there was insufficient crockery to use the dishwasher. The wall cupboards were almost empty. If we had stayed for more than a few days the lack of a washer would have been difficult. But I appreciate that space was an issue The toilet seat was broken. The sky tv wasn’t working even though a man came and replaced it. The lack of headroom made using the bath difficult for my husband.

“Outdoor furniture could be a lot better, when people book a cottage like this they expect to spend much of their time outdoors but to do this decent chairs and table are required.”

- Mr Young, June 2019
“Great cottage in a good location, ideal for my 2 cocker spaniels with an enclosed garden.”

Generally, excellent, with the only snag being rubbish disposal - when we arrived, the bin allocated to paper waste was full of empty beer cans and fag ends, not what you hope to see in a not inexpensive cottage

- Martin Thorne,
“Well furnished with everything you need.”

Underfloor heating amazing.

- Glenis Charles,
“Very cosy little cottage near the beach for walks and a fantastic dog friendly pub nearby for meals and drinks.”

- Edward Johnston,
“Beautiful little cottage very cosy”

- Jayne Keith,
“We loved Plas Bach it was so warm and welcoming, the under floor heating was ideal for both us and the dog too.”

The views down to the bay were gorgeous, we were treated to the most stunning sunsets over Rhoscolyn bay. We also loved being so near to the coastal path, so many great walks and so near to the White Eagle too. We had the most wonderful relaxing break, thank you Menai Cottages.

- Jayne Chapman,
“Love love love this cosy little cottage, we were back for our 2nd visit and it seemed even more delightful second time around.”

Perfect location, loved the rural outlook, lots of fabulous walking from the doorstop, amazing beach and pub round the corner. What more can you ask for.

- Jayne Chapman,
“NO CORK SCREW !”

!!!!!!! Quite dark & cold. Would benefit from stable front door with glass in top. New front door needed as rotten. Could have been cleaned better. Cupboards with crumbs & oven dirty. Matches damp so couldn’t light fire first night. Bins could do with being at end of road so bin lorry doesn’t wake you at 7.30. Painters arrived at 8am !!! Bad communication !! Didn’t appreciate paying extra for dog.

- ,

I would also be horrified and we are so sorry that this essential piece of kit was missing for your stay! The owners are making some improvements to the exterior of the cottage although you should not have been disturbed by any painters so we will look into this. Unfortunately pooches do mean some extra cleaning so we do have to ask for a little to cover their room and board :) Owner relations
“It's so lovely and peaceful”

- Karen Moran,
“Great cottage in a great location.”

Only a 10 minute walk to the beach and even less to the White Eagle pub! The cottage was charming and more than suited our needs. The welcome pack was a nice touch too. The only reason I have given 4 stars instead of 5 was down to a very minor issue of cleanliness. There were lots of cobwebs, particularly in the windows that I know are hard to reach but a little more attention to detail would have awarded this 5 stars,

- Sue Lowe,
“The cottage is nice but there are a few areas that might make it even nicer: The bath and shower could be a better design for the cost of the stay; maybe a proper shower could be installed.”

wifi from the cottage across the lane was unreliable and it would be better if it was within the cottage itself. The area for hanging clothes smelled damp.

“Cosy and well equipped for us”

“Beautiful cottage, well equipped, comfortable, very peaceful location, very warm& cosy.”

Great pub two minutes away that was excellent,loved it!!! Would have given 5 stars.parking bit difficult, storage space limited. Would still go back though because of location. Would recommend for couples for peaceful break.

“This is the 4th time in 2018 that we have stayed at Plas Bach and we just love this beautiful quaint Cottage, it certainly ticks all the boxes for us.”

Warm, cosy, homely and the most wonderful location. Couldn't ask for more.

- Jayne Chapman,
“Clean and quirky.”

Possibly worth advising potential customers that bedroom carries a concussion risk.

“Cosy , warm cottage, perfect size for 2 people.”

Log burner great.

- ,
“A delightful cottage, very well presented.”

Sophie, the caretaker, made a real effort to be welcoming. The welcome pack of milk and bara brith was a lovely touch, and suggests an owner who cares about customer service. Well done!

- Andrew,

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!
