We have previously stayed at this property and have already booked for next June - so that in itself speaks volumes!
This is a very old cottage - previously the post office! It has magnificent views of the Straits from all of the windows at the back of the house! It is on the main road from Menai to Beaumaris so you do get road noise but to be honest an extra glass of wine at night and oneâs sleeps through without hearing it too much! There are a couple of stairs in the property but my 94 year old father managed them easily! The small terraced area is seperate to the house - you have to go out of the front door and walk less than 10 yards to the gate and there are approximately 10 steep steps down to it! I sat out there every morning with my dog and a brew watching the heron get its morning feed on the waters edge! Yes there is a build up of algae but come on guys - what do you expect ⦠itâs on the straits and is a welcome addition to the facilities! We had a couple of barbecues on it last year - granted the steps are steep so be cautious! It does not have direct access to the waters edge/beach⦠but a short 5 minute walk to the Gazelle and you can skim as many stones as you want and have a pint - sounds perfect to me! The property does require a few things doing to it and it would benefit from the carpet being replaced in the lounge (or replaced with a decent solid wooden flooring) but look this is one of the few properties where you can take your dog and you step straight into the house from the road side so yes there are a few marks but this does not take away from the comfort and serenity of this place! The bath in the main bedroom is out of this world! There is a property underneath the cottage but you do not hear anything and occasionally you may see their delightful Jack Russell running around like a mad thing! Itâs a dogs life afterall !! All in all - I accept that some work is required but we love it and would recommend it all day long â¦

Superb property!
I will certainly recommend Glan Dwr Bach for the views and the quality of accommodation, these were excellent. Please mention to owners the dripping tap in kitchen - not a problem for us, at all, but Iâm sure someone will complain. Iâve used Menai Holidays for years and never had a problem, they have always exceeded my expectations. This time I am far from happy that I had spotted GDB was not shaded out on the booking website, the week before we were travelling. This was resolved, eventually. I was told it had not been shaded out due to joining up with Sykes! There was absolutely not need for me to have been put in a stressful situation, the week before travel, and there still has been no formal apology. It was merely brushed off with âat least the property is freeâ. YES it should be free for me and my family as I booked and paid for it months ago. I do feel the latter should be shared with Menai Holidays themselves, as I say after years of no difficulties I feel that this blip, having merged with Sykes, and the response given is far from acceptable for such a previously professional business. I have paid a lot of money for a gorgeous property and expect a much better standard of âvoice to voiceâ customer service and a formal apology for such a basic confusion. Luckily for Skyeâs and Menai Holiday GDB was not double booked!

Loved the setting of the cottage, great conversion of presumably once farm buildings, quiet, great views.
Enclosed gardens. Cottage was clean and reasonably well equipped. Lovely little balcony but sadly unable to use due to awful weather we had! ( note doors to balcony were extremely stiff and difficult to open) Could do with some storage in main bedroom, was only a small wardrobe with 2 hangers so wouldâve been better with large set of drawers and a few hooks with hangers . Was quite cold when we were staying, wouldâve been nice to have had a couple of blankets accessible. Although cottage says dog friendly, we found this particular one was no good for our dog. Steps difficult to negotiate for a dog in to garden (/only access to garden is from balcony] and he couldnât cope with narrow wooden stairs on inside as too slippery for him without carpet and as this was an â upside down houseâ he had to live in the hallway without us all week so that he could get outside again! Obviously not owners fault but something to bear in mind especially if you have a large dog , ours is a lab, went home a night early in the end. Also re. Maintenance cold tap was faulty and difficult to use in kitchen. Would be nice to put some tubs in kitchen to keep opened food fresh or to use for picnics etc. overall tho, this is a charming little place to stay and a good base for exploring the island

We have had a wonderful week in the cottage, it was everything we expected and more.
The addition of a newly fitted kitchen with full size fridge freezer and every cooking accessory we needed was a massive bonus, and the newly finished private patio was a real surprise. As others have already commented, the views from every window on the coast side of the cottage are amazing, and even when the weather wasnât the best, we found ourselves gazing out watching the clouds and boats passing by our windows! We did not find the noise from passing traffic to be too intrusive, although the cottage is adjacent to the main road to Beaumaris. This is a small price to pay for the excellent views and really handy location for exploring the island and the nearby Snowdonia countryside. As a person who has some mobility issues, I personally found the accommodation to be excellent, with everything on (almost) the one level, and the effort the owner has put into creating the private patio is to be commended. We are already looking at booking our next break here at the cottage and we havenât finished this holiday yet! Thanks for letting us share your fabulous home and we canât wait to come back!

We love going to Anglesey and had a lovely week away.
Gwalia Cottage is in a great location, so near to Llanddwyn beach and Newborough Forest, but not too far to drive over to one of the other fabulous places on the Island. Overall, the cottage was clean and comfortable and is in very nice peaceful surroundings. Unfortunately, it has an oil boiler which emits a fuel type smell. We were unlucky in that the boiler had a leak while we were there which increased the smell, however, the owners were quick to react and fix the issue which we were thankful for. Sadly, it did taint our week as the boiler is situated within the kitchen/living area which meant whenever we were in the cottage we had all windows and doors open. This is okay to do during summer but not sure it would be as easy during the colder months. After speaking to the owners through Sykes, they did say that depending on the weather the smell could be stronger... I would suggest that the boiler needs either moving to a different area or potentially the flue outside needs to be changed. While the cottage itself is nice enough, the whole experience wasn't quite what we wanted.
