A delightfully spacious cottage, forming the end part of a large house which has been converted into a number of apartments, located very close to the banks of the Menai Straits, on the outskirts of the village of Llanfairpwllgwyngyll on the popular Isle of Anglesey. This quality Anglesey cottage, which is part of the old rectory to St. Mary's and St. Tysilio churches which form part of the town's name, is situated less than one mile from the railway station at Llanfairpwllgwyngyll, down a secluded lane. Accessed through electronic gates, the sweeping drive leads up to this large Llanfair PG cottage, which has been tastefully decorated and furnished throughout, and boasts wonderful views over the Menai Straits and towards Snowdon. Your Anglesey holiday home offers superb living accommodation with high ceilings and mosaic tiled hallway, plus the light and airy sitting room has a cosy woodburning stove, a social dining area and patio doors that lead onto the pretty garden. A well-equipped kitchen and three comfortable bedrooms, one benefiting from an en-suite bathroom and balcony offering stunning views along the straits, complete the accommodation at this cottage on Anglesey. This Llanfairpwllgwyngyll cottage has ample private parking, a lawned area and patio with furniture on which you can enjoy the changing views of the sea, and a path leads down to the straits where you can barbecue in peace and quiet whilst relaxing and listening to the water lapping against the shore. The Anglesey Coastal Path passes by this Llanfair PG cottage and opens up miles of unspoilt tracks and beaches, allowing access to Menai Bridge and the village. This charming Llanfairpwllgwyngyll cottage is a perfect getaway for families, at any time of year.

Spotlessly clean, all the facilities you need and with the bonus of having the most stunning views. Easy to get to and within reach of so many beautiful locations. Barbara was very helpful prior to our stay and provided all the information we needed.The only (very small) criticism is that I found the mattress in the master bedroom a little uncomfortable, but we all have different preferences when it comes to mattresses! That would definitely not stop me returning and recommending the property to others. Thank you for a memorable stay.

We enjoyed exploring the area. We hope to return to Menai View.

The settings and surroundings are beautiful. Myself and my husband slept in the smaller of the two doubles to allow my dad on crutches easy access to the ensuit. Being tall (my husband is 6ft3 and I'm 5ft9) we found the bed too short and cramped. We did fear that the bed was also going to give up as it did not feel very stable and was extremely creaky even with the slightest movement. I loved how comfortable the mattress was but the noise of the bed did not make for a good night's sleep. The bedroom furniture in the small double and twin room was quite dated too. That aside the rest of the property was perfect for what we needed and well equipped. We would love to stay again.
