Plas Elyn

About this property

Beaumaris 2.9 miles. Hidden away in peaceful Llangoed, close to Beaumaris in Gwynedd, is the magnificent Plas Elyn, built in the nineteenth century. Plas Elyn is a great option for large groups or families sleeping up 10 with its convenient proximity to the beach and its breath-taking views of the Strait and the Snowdonia Mountains. Built in 1861 as a stable block for the prestigious Cornelyn Manor, the property features a fully enclosed garden with furniture, a barbecue, and an Ooni mini pizza oven—ideal for enjoying a meal outdoors while taking in the scenery. Keep an eye out for the red squirrels and other birds that call this area home. The kitchen is fully equipped, so feel free to whip up a feast for your guests to enjoy at the dining table with antique Anglesey chairs. Relax on the plush Duresta sofas in front of the woodburning stove as your favourite show plays on the Smart TV with soundbar in the first-floor sitting room after dinner, which offers spectacular sea and mountain views. The kids have their own play area with toys, games, books, bean bags, and a screen you can hook up your own gaming console to if you bring one. Head back down to the ground floor and freshen up in the luxurious bathroom with a beautiful freestanding bath and walk-in shower before retiring to one of the five tastefully decorated bedrooms: a super-king-size, a twin convertible into a superking, and a double with en-suite shower room, all on the ground floor with garden views; and two twins also convertible into superkings, both on the first floor. Convenience stores, the Tir Comin nature reserve, the ruins of Castell Aberlleiniog, and the stunning Traeth Lleiniog beach are all available in this hamlet. Visit Beaumaris to take a sea safari to Puffin Island, dine at The Midland Tapas Wine Bar and Pier House Café and Bistro, stroll along the seafront with an ice cream in hand, or explore the town's rich history at Beaumaris Castle, Beaumaris Gaol and Court, and Beaumaris Courthouse Museum. If you're willing to travel a bit further, you can visit Menai Bridge, where you can learn about the area's past at the heritage centre and enjoy meals at restaurants like The Freckled Angel and Jade Village, or you can head to Bangor, where you can visit attractions like Penrhyn Castle & Garden, Clwb Golff St. Deiniol, and the Roman Camp, all of which are maintained by the National Trust. For a truly memorable escape choose Plas Elyn.

Located on the Menai Strait and offering breathtaking views of the Snowdonia mountain range, Beaumaris is a popular historic town on the Isle of Anglesey. Also well-known as a yachting hub, it is home to a castle from the time of Edward I (now a World Heritage site), as well as a Victorian pier, gaol, and courthouse. Historic Beaumaris still has many of its original mediaeval streets. The town's atmosphere, variety of architectural styles and periods, scale, open spaces, roof types, and general quality all play significant roles in shaping its unique identity. You can go fishing or on a boat tour, or even play a round of golf; the town has everything you could want. Red Wharf Bay is a sizable bay along the coast; in Welsh, it is known as Traeth Coch (Red Beach), and it is well-known for its breathtaking sunsets. Due to the bay's shallow depth, almost 25 square kilometres (10 square miles) of sand are exposed during low tide, making it ideal for safe swimming, great for family outings, fishing, and miles of breathtaking scenic strolls. Farther afield is Holyhead, where you can take a ferry to Dublin whenever you like. Beaumaris is ideally situated on the south coast of the picture-perfect Isle of Anglesey, making it a convenient home base from which to explore the rest of Wales and its many attractions, including the majestic Snowdonia Mountains.
