Y Felinheli, formerly know as Port Dinorwic, is situated on the beautiful Menai Strait between the historic town of Caernarfon and the cathedral city of Bangor. Home to a small, established yachting marina with an interesting lock (allowing boats to enter or leave before cruising down the Straits to the open sea), this small village also has a couple of pubs, a restaurant and cafe in the dock area, a shop and Post Office, a beautician, a hairdresser and several great restaurants on the nearby Island of Anglesey. Visitors to this lovely region are spoilt for choice, with stunning Snowdonia, the beautiful Llyn Peninsula, or the sandy beaches of the Isle of Anglesey all within easy reach.

Larger than expected, well presented with a good kitchen and appliances, and plenty of pans, crockery and cutlery. Small front garden but safe for our small dog. The large bed in the second bedroom limited the space available for bedside cabinets, but the main bedroom with an even larger and comfortable bed was roomy. Our problem was no coat hooks in the hallway, so we had no option but to leave our outdoor clothing on the hall floor, which is not desirable in wet and cold weather. Also the new tin opener doesn't work - also mentioned by a previous guest. Otherwise, a very good cottage in an ideal location with lovely views across to Anglesey.

We particularly liked the roomy, well-equipped kitchen. Outside it is only a few seconds walk to the edge of the Menai Strait and we enjoyed watching the water, the bird life, the sunsets and the morning mist. Nearby is a general store and pub. There were a couple of issues in the kitchen: the cold tap hardly ran and a window wouldn't close fully. More significant perhaps was the lock box which is only a few inches off the ground. We had to kneel to use it which is not ideal when it is night-time and raining! Despite these issues, which will hopefully be resolved, we recommend this cottage and its lovely location and would be happy to stay there again.
