Menai Cottage is consistently praised for its cleanliness, superb location with stunning views, and the thoughtfulness of the host, Richard. Guests appreciate the comfortable setting, though some find it more suitable for two adults. The enclosed courtyards are a hit with dog owners, and the proximity to local amenities and attractions adds to the charm. While most reviews are positive, a few guests suggest minor improvements in comfort and maintenance.

About this property
A charming end-of-terrace cottage resting in the heart of Brynsiencyn, Menai Cottage is a snug bolthole for two to four on the magnificent Isle of Anglesey. Offering a stylish interior along with a great location, Menai Cottage is a wonderful choice for your romantic retreat to North Wales. Take in the pretty white-washed exterior after parking up on the roadside in the village, heading through the front enclosed patio and into the open-plan living and dining room. Spend quiet evenings snuggled on the sofa with your other half streaming the latest release on the Smart TV, while the fire in the multi-fuel stove crackles away in the background. There is also a sofa bed in the lounge and while 4 adults are welcome at the property, guests may find the sofa bed more suitable for children or teenagers. A dining table and chairs is the perfect spot for a meal for two, with the kitchen in the next room boasting all you need for a self-catered stay, including an electric oven and ceramic hob, fridge and a microwave, so you can rustle up a delicious dish. Also at hand is a washing machine, convenient for those longer stays allowing you to pack light, while the ground floor is completed by the shower room here too, offering the best way to begin the day with an invigorating rinse. Make use of the pretty rear courtyard in the summer months, great for alfresco dining with your canine companion at your side. When you’re ready to retire for the day, head back through underfloor heated ground floor and up the stairs to the mezzanine first floor, here you’ll find the wonderful bedroom with a roomy king-size bed, enjoying quaint and fresh décor, with a lovely dressing table and plenty of storage for your things. Bunker down at Menai Cottage to enjoy a romantic retreat to Anglesey. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1151985, together sleeping up to 4 guests.
Resting on the banks on the Menai Strait in Anglesey, Brynsiencyn is a small village boasting views over towards Caernarfon and the Snowdonia Mountain Range in the distance. The village is home to a shop, pub, Post Office and a takeaway, so caters wonderfully to self-catered stays.
