Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews noting it as 'spotless' and 'well maintained'. One review mentioned an issue with kitchen items not being clean, but this seems an isolated incident.
The location is frequently described as peaceful and ideal for walks, with easy access to Beaumaris and other attractions. Its remoteness is appreciated by many, though it may not suit those seeking a more central location.
Comfort is consistently highlighted, with mentions of a 'comfy bed' and 'cosy' setting. However, a couple of reviews suggest the mattresses may need updating, slightly lowering the score.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with the property being described as well-equipped. Some maintenance issues are noted, such as heating problems and a sensitive smoke detector, which slightly impact the score.
While some guests mention a warm welcome and thoughtful touches, there is not enough consistent information about gifts to accurately score this category. Therefore, the score is set to null, and guests should note that gifts are not guaranteed.
About this property
Beaumaris 3.2 miles. Situated on the outskirts of Llangoed, a quaint village upon Anglesey is Brook Cottage, a delightful single-storey dwelling with views towards Snowdon from the front of the property. Enjoying a tranquil base, whilst a short distance from the beach and a range of amenities, Brook Cottage invites four guests for a getaway, perfect for couples sharing, families and friends. Park upon the private driveway before travelling through the wrap-around garden and into the entrance, firstly reaching the country-style open-plan living space, adorning plush seating, a rustling wood burning stove, a well-equipped kitchen, and a dining table for six; here you can prepare meals, dine, socialise, and delve into one of the many books on offer. If you'd prefer to dine alfresco, head outdoors to set the table upon the patio, enveloped by a luscious lawn. As sleep calls, select between two well-appointed bedrooms, including a king-size and a twin, both dotted with ample storage, before awakening to a refresh in the bathroom; select between an indulgent roll-top bath and a walk-in shower. Kickstart your itinerary in the local area, travelling towards Traeth Gwyn, reaching Penmon Point for coastal vistas, or feel at one with nature at Penmon Nature Reserve. The bustling town of Beaumaris is a short drive away, home to a magnificent castle and a busy pier, where you can board one of the many boat trips on offer towards Puffin Island. Continue to Menai Bridge, and the nearby attraction of Pili Palas Nature World, perfect for all of the family, before travelling across to the mainland, possible to tour Bangor, Caernarfon, Snowdonia National Park and many other areas of interest. Experience all of this at Brook Cottage.
The most beautiful sunrises may be seen in Beaumaris, a well-known ancient town on the Isle of Anglesey that is situated on the Menai Strait and overlooks the Snowdonia Mountain range. It is also well-known as a significant hub for sailing, with its Edward I-era mediaeval castle (now a World Heritage site) and Victorian pier, jail, and courthouse. With a long history, Beaumaris still has a lot of its original mediaeval street layout. The town's environment, diversity of architectural styles and eras, variable scale, open spaces, different roofing, and overall quality all play a significant role in the character of the community. In addition to a golf course close by, the town offers a good assortment of stores, eateries, and bars, as well as options for boat trips and fishing.

Lovely setting, we had a nice quiet relaxed break.

It has been beautifully renovated and was very homely with comfy chairs and sofa. It was also spotlessly clean! We had to phone the owner to ask for the heating to be turned up after the weather changed and John couldnât have been more helpful and courteous. Even with two wet and cold days we were cosy and comfortable. The only thing we felt could have improved our stay was to have mattresses that were firmer, as the ones in both rooms felt rather soft and saggy. However that one thing would not stop us from rebooking this cottage in the future. It really is a delightful place.

There are pleasant walks from the cottage and the coast is easily reachable. There is a babbling stream running through the edge of the garden to cool off dogs and children alike. The cottage interior is comfortable and well equipped with a full size smart t.v and good wifi if that is important. The island has a slow lane feel, and is very easy to drive around to the many places of beauty and interest, due to its size no where is unreachable, beaches, RSPB, National trust, walks it has it all.
