Second visit to Swallows Nest. Love being out of the way in the countryside, yet so accessible to all the places to visit on Anglesey; beaches; villages; wildlife; burial chambers and lovely coastal walks. The property is perfect for us with our dog and well equipped and comfortable. Don't expect luxury but it is homely and Chris and Sharon are very helpful and live next door.
