We have had a wonderful week staying here. The views are stunning and the walks from your door are amazing. The cottage is well appointed but I would take your own outdoor chairs to sit on as there is only a round wooden table and seats like you get in a pub to sit on. It also means you can take your chairs down to the stone platform which is down the steps to the beach (although not really a beach) and you can sit with drinks and watch the sun go down. The local pub the white eagle is fantastic food but really need to book if you wish to dine in the restaurant. Trearddur is great to visit and one night we went in for a few drinks and food and left the car over night and got a taxi home. If you like seafood the local spar in Trearddur does fresh fish and lobster which was amazing, well stocked shop as well. We loved our stay and will definitely return a week really wasn’t long enough!
