Full Description

Dinas Cottage sits above beautiful Traeth Bychan on the sheltered east coast of Anglesey between Moelfre and Benllech. Traeth Bychan is one of Anglesey's favourite beaches and it's literally just a stone's throw from the cottage.

This coastal holiday cottage itself is adjoined to the owner's house. Downstairs, you'll find a roomy dining room for six and a modern kitchen equipped with a fridge/freezer, microwave, an electric oven and hob and dishwasher. In addition, there are three ground floor bedrooms (two kings and a twin) and a family shower room.

Dinas Cottage is an "upside-down" holiday house - climb the stairs to the sitting room where patio doors open out onto the balcony. This is simply the perfect place, sundowner in hand, from which to enjoy the evening as the sun begins to set. Step through the sitting room into a quiet living room again with coastal views. There's also a second shower room on this floor.

Outside, to the rear of the cottage, there is a peaceful decked area with seating for six and four reclining loungers. There is plenty of private parking at the front of the cottage. Dinas Cottage is so wonderfully located that you may not wish to explore further afield than this Hideaway with its close proximity to the Anglesey coastal path. Just above Traeth Bychan, you'll also find the best-woodfired pizza in the area at The Beach Shop. Here you can also hire kayaks to explore the bay.

Close by, the stunning beaches at Red Wharf Bay, Benllech, Moelfre and Lligwy beach are accessible along the Anglesey coastal path. Each is just a short drive away.

Walk across the beach or take the coastal path and head for breakfast at The Beach Shop. Visit Ann's Pantry in Moelfre for lunch and afternoon tea. Book a table at the Tavern on the Bay, The Boathouse or the Ship Inn, all popular places to eat out in Red Wharf Bay.

Or venture further afield into the coastal town of Beaumaris with its medieval castle, Victorian pier and eclectic range of independent shops, cafes and restaurants.

Please note access is by a narrow uneven track which may be unsuitable for low vehicles.

We felt right at home and loved that the cottage had everything we needed. The views over the bay were wonderful and even though the weather was wet for most days we enjoyed the close proximity to the beach, went paddle boarding, beach walks, shell collecting with the smalls, coastal path walking into the town. We made some great family memories and would love to come back!"

"Fantastic place to stay. Home from home with all we needed. Beautiful views & walks. Fabulous hosts who were on hand to give handy hints & recommendations"
Greg & Susie Smith, Brodie, Andy & Liz White, 2nd February 2023
"We stayed at Dinas Cottage in August 2022 and had an amazing time. The directions to get there were very helpful as it's not the most obvious turning from the main road. The single track road to the cottage was a little worrying at first with a biggish car but it wasn't a problem. The hosts Marc and Avis were super friendly and very welcoming. Although we arrived much earlier than expected, they said the cottage was already ready for us so we unpacked and got straight down to the beach which was literally a 5 minute walk away!

The cottage was spotless and we loved the upside-down format with the lounge and balcony giving you stunning views over the beach. The beds were very comfortable and the shower powerful which is always a plus. The kitchen had everything you could ask for. On the side of the decking area was a grassed area that was all enclosed making it safe for our Frenchie to roam around and sun bath!! It was a real sun trap at the back and with recliner garden furniture it was heaven in the evening with a glass of wine.

We visited Beaumaris Castle over the bank holiday weekend when they always have a medieval theme. My 8 year old son has an amazing time and dogs were allowed too! We had the best time in Angelsey and would definitely recommend staying at Dinas Cottage.
Thank you Avis and Marc"
Liz , 16th August 2022
"We had such a wonderful time here, the house was perfect, and the views were spectacular! Being able to just walk down to the beach of an evening after a fun-filled day was the cherry on top. Thank you for letting us stay x"
