This historic town on the Isle of Anglesey sits on the Menai Strait overlooking Snowdonia's mountains, making for a breathtaking sunrise. Beaumaris has an Edward I-era mediaeval castle, which is now a unesco World Heritage Site, as well as a Victorian pier, gaol, and courthouse, it is also well-known as a major yachting hub. Many of Beaumaris's mediaeval streets are still in use today. The town's location, variety of architectural styles and periods, differing scale, open spaces, varying roofs, and overall quality all contribute greatly to the town's personality. The town offers a wide range of amenities, including a golf course nearby, as well as fishing and boating excursions. Red Wharf Bay, also known as Traeth Coch (Red Beach) in Welsh, is a large bay on the coast that is well-known for its spectacular sunsets. There are nearly 25 square kilometres (10 sq. miles) of sand that can be seen when the tide is low, and the bay is shallow making it safe for bathing and ideal for family outings, fishing, and scenic walks. The port of Holyhead, which has regular ferry connections to Dublin, is close but a little further out. Beaumaris is a great starting point from which to explore the rest of Wales, as it is sited on the south coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey and close to the stunning Snowdonia mountains.

Both clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Ideally situated. Parked the car upon arrival and didn't use it until we left. Highly recommended

I contacted the owner who wasn't much help. So we had no tv. We noticed a lot of dust & fluff under the settee, also cobwebs up the staircase. The quilts on the beds were very thick, ideal for winter use. The was no plug on the bathroom sink on the first floor. Parking was quite a way from the cottage. We left last Saturday 13th July after only one night, i tried to contact the owner, but had to leave a voice message, he never returned my call. All in all we were very disappointed in the cottage and would not recommend it to a friend
