About this property
This detached property sits in a large plot within the village of Llandegfan on the delightful Isle of Anglesey. Enjoying beautiful views over the Straits and towards Snowdonia, Dolwyn is a magnificent abode for up to eight guests looking to explore the scenic splendour of Anglesey. After a day of meandering the coastline, retreat inside and make yourself at home in the living area, catching up on your favourite shows or planning the next adventure. Head into the kitchen, where you can impress the group with a home-made dish, before gathering at the dining table and celebrating to this North Wales retreat. Step outside and enjoy a moment in the enclosed garden before starting your evening routine in the bathroom. The bedrooms are situated upstairs and include three doubles and a triple bunk, plus there is a sleek shower room to serve them. Within the village there is a pub where you can reward yourself with a pint after a long hike, plus there is a convenience store for grabbing any essentials. Within two miles lies the town centre of Menai Bridge, where you will find a larger selection of places to eat and drink with something to suit all palettes and pockets, as well as a plethora of shops to browse. Whilst here, be sure to brush up on the local history by visiting the Menai Bridge Heritage Museum before taking a boat trip down the Strait to visit Church Island, home to the well-known Saint Tysilio. If you’re feeling adventurous, head to Menai outdoor activity centre and learn to windsurf, or venture deep into the Snowdonia National Park and scale the heights of Snowdon. Choose Dolwyn and experience the beauty of Anglesey and North Wales.
The charming Menai Straits and the mountains beyond are seen from the small settlement of Llandegfan, which is perched above their sloping banks. Wonderful Beaumaris, with its moated castle, unique shops, cafes, and pubs, is only three miles away. You may travel 3 miles in the opposite way to reach Menai Bridge, which has an iconic suspension bridge, lovely footpaths, and a range of dining options, including a Michelin-starred restaurant. The town has its own lake for coarse fishing and is conveniently located near a vast network of pathways. One favourite is to make the inclining descent to the Gazelle hotel for a pint.

Everything we need was included ,there was plenty of space for us all and the hot tub was brilliant. The views from the front of the property were incredible. Would definitely recommend the property and would be happy to go back.

It's a good base for exploring the island, from beaumaris and menai 5 minutes away to South stacks 35 minutes away, we would certainly use it again. The comfort and layout make it an ideal family base.
