Return to the light-filled hallway and head to the rear of the property to the compact, yet well-equipped kitchen, home to an electric oven, grill, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, providing everything you will need for an excellent self-catered stay. From here, a doorway takes you into the dining room, where you can relish in a home-cooked dish or a tasty takeaway, whilst admiring the overlooking views of the garden. Concluding the ground floor of the dwelling is a conservatory, offering a peaceful spot for you to delve into a good book or to savour the sunshine with a cup of tea on a balmy afternoon. Head up the staircase as the evening draws to a close to find your sleeping spots, the master suite boasts a plush double bed, whilst bedroom two boasts twin beds and the final bedroom houses a single bed with a good wardrobe storage. To the exterior, there is private off-road parking and a rear garden, where you can look forward to enjoying a spot of alfresco dining on the patio. A short stroll from the cottage will bring you to the plethora of places to eat and drink in Holyhead, ranging from cosy cafés, takeaway options and fine dining restaurants, such as the Harbourfront Bistro, where you can soak up the stunning views as you sample the great seafood menu. Brush up on the town’s history by visiting St Cybi’s Church, which was founded in 550AD and is surrounded by the original fort wall, where you can also get a good view across the port and of Skinner's monument on Alltran rock. Avid ramblers can don their walking boots and enjoy the network of coastal walks within the Breakwater Country Park, a spot littered with interesting wildlife, most notably the seals who visit the Holyhead coast.

If you want to venture further afield, hop on board the fast ferry from the port and reach Dublin within 90-minutes or take the car to the mainland to explore the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, home to even more walking opportunities, mountain biking and other outdoor pursuits. Glasfryn promises to be a wonderful getaway for the whole family.
