Beaumaris is a well known historic town on the Isle of Anglesey situated on the Menai Strait and overlooking the Snowdonia mountain range, making for the most stunning of sunrises. With its medieval castle (now a World Heritage site) dating back to the reign of Edward I and its Victorian pier, gaol and courthouse, it is also known as a major centre for yachting. Beaumaris is rich in history and retains much of its medieval street pattern. It’s setting, diversity of architectural styles and periods, differing scale, open spaces, varying roofs and overall quality contribute greatly to the town’s character. There is a good selection of shops, restaurants and public houses, as well as fishing opportunities and boat trips in the town, plus a golf course nearby. Along the coast is a large bay called Red Wharf Bay; its Welsh name is Traeth Coch (Red Beach) and the area is renowned for its glorious sunsets. The bay is very shallow and at low tide, almost 25 square kilometres (10 sq. mi.) of sand is uncovered providing safe bathing, perfect for wonderful family fun, fishing and miles of stunning scenic walks. Further afield is the port of Holyhead, which has regular ferry links to Dublin. Beaumaris is a good central base for touring Wales, in a beautiful location on the south coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey, within easy reach of the spectacular mountains of Snowdonia.

The best self catering property we have been to. It has everything you could possibly need and more. Spotless when we arrived. A lovely welcome pack. Furnishings and fittings were beautiful , like a home from home.

It was extremely comfortable and in a perfect location - just a couple of minutes walk (if that) to pubs, restaurants, shops etc. Very handy to have parking as well. The house was spotless when we arrived and the quality of appliances and furnishings were very good. Really appreciated the welcome basket and milk and fizz in the fridge. Beaumaris itself is a gem. Quite small but very friendly with everything on the doorstep. I can heartily recommend the Liverpool Arms and Sarisa Indian Kitchen for food. All in all it was a lovely break.

The combination of 2 car capacity parking in such a conveniently central but quiet location in lovely Beaumaris was also most welcome.
