Located on Holy Island, three miles from Trearddur Bay, Rhoscolyn is a small village with a church and primary school and is the most southerly place on Holy Island. Rhoscolyn also offers an excellent pub on the lane down to the beach, which is renowned for its gastro food, and the beach itself with its slipway, ideal for small dinghies and power boats, is a popular family destination throughout the summer owing to the sheltered cove and gently sloping sands. Also excellent cliff-top walks can be enjoyed and an abundance of wildlife can be seen, often including seals on the headland. Just two miles away is the village of Valley, which has a Post Office, chemist, shops and eating places, plus the nearby resort of Trearddur Bay is situated on the western shore of the island and is truly beautiful with a great sweep of low grassy coastline indented with rocky coves and fine Blue Flag sandy beaches. There are shops, pubs and restaurants in Trearddur Bay itself and nearby Holyhead offers a wider range of amenities, including a very good leisure centre, supermarkets, harbour front, a marina, the world’s second longest breakwater and exciting day trips to Dublin on the ferry. Watersports, bathing, sailing, windsurfing and horse riding are the main activities in the summer months, plus golfers will enjoy the excellent Holyhead 18 hole links golf course, and the area is also a great place for nature lovers with renowned birdwatching at the South Stack Lighthouse rspb Reserve. An excellent location with plenty to see and do!

It would be extremely useful if there were details of the wifi code left in a prominent position. We did not use the upstairs of the cottage and that is where the box was placed, in an unobvious position. Visitors should be advised to bring their own devices to watch tv on as BBC channels, ITV1 and C4 were unavailable. And although itâs not crucial, we booked the cottage in the belief that we would be able to relax in front of the tv at night. Finally there are no details on recycling. We did find somewhere to take ours during the course of the week but had no time on the morning of departure as we had to vacate by 9am.

Clean & tidy. Everything was as expected. Was a little worried regarding the reviews and the track leading to the property, but this had all been resurfaced and was fine. Only downside is, departure at 9am. With a child, this was just impossible. We cut our stay and came home a day earlier to save the stress in the morning. Cleaner popped in to say hello, and ensure everything was ok which was nice. Near an RAF base, so noise was expectedâ¦.. but the sight of the planes going over was incredible! Was very much enjoyed by us all, fascinating to seeâ¦. & daughter loved it! ânoisy planes!â Insisted on sitting outside every morning to watch!
