The cottage's location is frequently commended for its quietness and proximity to local amenities and coastal walks. The scenic views and secure garden are also appreciated, enhancing the location score.
Comfort receives positive remarks overall, with guests finding the cottage cosy and the gardens enjoyable. Some guests, however, have suggested firmer mattresses and seating due to personal preferences and back issues.
Facilities are generally well-received, with mentions of a well-equipped kitchen and secure garden. However, suggestions for additional kitchenware, a washing machine, and minor maintenance issues slightly lower the score.

About this property
Hafod Cottage is an attractive, detached, seaside cottage situated in its own half acre grounds in the pretty coastal village of Cemaes Bay on the Isle of Anglesey. This cottage has been thoughtfully renovated to a high standard to provide cosy, welcoming accommodation suitable for small families or even for a romantic break on the coast. Hafod Cottage boasts a single-storey layout and has a comfortable sitting room with a woodburning stove and distant sea views, making it a great place to relax after a full day out and about. There is a well-equipped kitchen and a conservatory with dining table and chairs, making a good place to enjoy those delicious home-cooked meals. There are two bedrooms, a double and a single, both with pleasant views of the garden and the far-reaching countryside. To the outside is a large, enclosed garden with patio and furniture; a great place for children to let off steam as well as enjoying some alfresco dining. The cottage is just a short walk from the village centre with its selection of shops, pubs and restaurants and has easy access to the lovely sandy beach which is good for young children due to the gently shelving incline and sandy shore. Cemaes Bay also has a host of activities to enjoy, from sailing and water sports, to birdwatching and seal spotting. The well-known Sea Zoo and a variety of National Trust properties and gardens are all within reach on this beautiful island. Further afield take a day trip to Snowdonia National Park, visit the spectacular Llyn Peninsula or travel across to Dublin from the nearby port at Holyhead. Holyhead offers a wider range of amenities, including a very good leisure centre, an interesting harbourfront, a marina and a wide range of shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy. Whatever the weather, choose Hafod cottage for a break on the Isle of Anglesey.
On the North Anglesey coast, the seaside village of Cemaes Bay is home to three pubs, a few shops, a sheltered harbour and a Blue Flag sandy beach, where you can paddle the shores, soak up the sun or tuck-in to fresh fish and chips as you watch the world go by. The Isle of Anglesey is renowned for its miles of coastline offering walking and cycling, birdwatching, watersports, fishing and golf courses. For a fun-filled day out be sure to stop at the Sea Zoo where you can meet the local marine life!
