Fantastic, fully enclosed garden. Kitchen has everything you need and more. Bathrooms are spotlessly clean and really lovely . Perfect location. A couple of minutes to town centre yet really quiet and peaceful. We always managed to park in front of cottage apart from one occasion where we were just 2 cottages away, so no issue at all. This was our second visit and weâll definitely be back again.

It is well equipped and has plenty of space. Beaumaris is a great little town with plenty of dog friendly places to eat out if you want. We would definitely recommend this cottage.
