About this property
Llandyfrydog 2.3 miles. On the outskirts of Llannerch-y-medd, a village in Anglesey, is this quaint dormer bungalow, Glan Gors. Boasting sweeping views of the surrounding hills and lake, this property would be ideal for a family or a group of friends looking to come together in this beautiful rural haven, whilst still being within easy reach of the coast. After coming down the quiet lane and through the gate, enter through the front door and into the country-style kitchen/diner with exposed stone walls and wood cabinets, creating a traditional and homely feel, where you can enjoy your morning coffee at the breakfast bar as you decide what the day’s activities will be. The dining table offers a lovely space to join together in the evening while you tuck into a family-favourite meal, and share stories old and new. On a winters eve, retire to the sitting room on the sofa arrangement and put some logs on the fire in the woodburning stove and you'll be toasty warm. When sleep calls, there are four delightful bedrooms to choose from; on the ground floor you will find two doubles and a twin room, whilst upstairs there is a further lounge containing a sofa and a desk, leading to the final double room, laid out beautifully with a built in wardrobe, dressing table and chair, and bedside tables, all looking out across the rolling hills. Take in the sun on the patio and watch the little ones run about on the large lawned garden, and embrace the tranquillity of being in this amazing secluded spot away from any reminders of a hectic city life. Not far from Llannerch-y-medd is Anglesey's largest lake, Llyn Alaw reservoir, with two bird hides, three picnic sites and a network of paths to ramble along, and for those keen anglers the lake supports a recreational trout fishery for which fishing permits are available. For some seaside fun, travel over to Benllech beach, one of the island's most popular beaches with fine golden sand and clear blue waters, you'd think you were in the south of France, and at low tide the sand stretches for miles so there's plenty of space to play or stroll along. Glan Gors will be a home-from-home where you can enjoy a quiet, secluded break, with some fantastic days out to Anglesey's best attractions.
Llannerch-y-medd is located in the north east of Anglesey in North Wales. Its location allows those who visit to easily get to the coast to find beaches at Benllech, Moelfre or Red Wharf Bay, while being within the countryside so you can enjoy rolling hills, steep climbs, and leisurely strolls from your doorstep. The large reservoir Llyn Alaw is not far away so you can spend some time walking around it for some stunning views.

Dog run looks an eyesore. Has lots of space.ideal For a family.Suggest that in the description that single track roads leading to property. Get rid of the dog run,concrete space ,enabling people to turn cars around on drive.

Lovely setting and very well equipped holiday house . Peace and tranquillity guaranteed. Kids really loved the walks around the area and perfect location if you want to be surrounded by countryside. Close enough to Moelfre and Red Wharf Bay / North Coast but car is essential if you are staying here . Only suggestion is that it would have been nice to have some firewood for the wood burner .

Cottage was very clean and well equipped for all eventualities. 3 generations stayed and the spaciousness gave everyone the opportunity to do their own thing or get together in the great kitchen or lounge areas. Local amenities were a 10 to 15 minute drive away. Beach, reservoir and other things to do also close by, but far enough away from the hustle and bustle if you want seclusion. Only improvements needed are for the garden to be more secure for dogs, who wanted to escape into the lake. And for better / bigger signage because the property is easy to miss. Also the postcode given is wrong on the directions and states LL71 8BD rather than the correct LL71 8BG - this needs changing as we initially got lost. My family and I will definitely be returning. Thank you for a wonderful week away from it all.
