Views for miles in a maritime village location
Ideal for families and outdoorsy couples – or those after real adventures. The coastal paths radiate out from the doorstep and the shingle beach a short amble.
This handsome fisherman’s terraced cottage is tucked away from the village of Moelfre and has sweeping views across Y Swnt, to the Island/Ynys Moelfre, home to many sea birds. In the winter, sit and watch the weather. In summer, relax in the cute cottage garden or get out and about as there is heaps to do. Your pooch is welcome.
After the longest walk, there is a comfy sofa to collapse into and a big log fire with plenty of logs when you get back. With oodles of interesting books and games to play and carefully thought out personal touches, this place feels like home. The kitchen is neat as a pin and has all the stuff you need, but if you fancy a night off, you can eat at The Kinmel Arms in the village. Up the steep stairs, the two bedrooms are small but perfect. Wake up and gaze to sea with a morning cuppa from the double room. The twin beds are great for children or older folk. The bathroom is simple and spotless. There’s a handy cloak room on the ground floor.
Moelfre village is a picturesque and understated gem with a long maritime history and a base for the RNLI. Stop for a sneaky treat on the sheltered shingle bay in the village and have an indulgent feast at Ann’s Pantry – plus the best cakes locally.
To the north is Ogof Arian an old smuggler’s cave locally and you have such a choice of fine beaches spread in every direction -Traeth Bychan, Porth Yr Aber, Porth Helaeth and Traeth Lligwy. For a slice of history, there are 17 ancient monuments to visit - Din Lligwy and Lligwy burial chamber are the most famous and sit evocatively placed on the coast up the road.
Or stay put and watch the sun set, glass of wine in hand.
