Porth Trefadog Beach is one of Anglesey's best kept secrets, 300 yards of golden sand accessed down some of Anglesey's prettiest winding lanes. At it's southern end sits Dryll y Gro; originally a fisherman's cottage, it has been extended and recently renovated to provide the setting for a perfect beach holiday.
Full Description
The original cottage is now the vaulted sitting room with whitewashed stone walls, a huge chimney built of beach pebbles and ship's timbers which contains the wood burning stove with sofa's and armchairs gathered around. An upturned wooden boat suspended from the ceiling has been repurposed to provide lighting to this room. French windows lead outside to the sunken terrace and beach beyond and internal doors lead through to the kitchen. This is a large social space with dining areas and a raised sun lounge which feels like being on the bridge of a ship about to launch into Porth Trefadog. A staircase leads up from this area to the two first floor bedrooms- a King room and a twin room which share a bathroom. The King room has french windows out on to the balcony where the views, unobstructed by the glass balustrades, are outstanding.
Follow the corridor from the sitting room in the opposite direction past the old torpedo and you'll come to the three ground floor bedrooms (one of which has the crog loft above), the utility room and the hot tub glass room beyond. Mirrorring the sun lounge on the other side of the house, this also provides incredible views over the beach and sea and is a great spot to sit and relax either pre or post a dip in the hot tub which is immediately outside. The hot tub is perched on a raised area of terrace so that it has views across the beach and sea. The main area of dining terrace is slighly sunken to give shelter on blustery days.
We cant imagine many places we'd rather be; whether storm-watching in the winter from the glass rooms or spending long summer days hopping from the hot tub to the sea.
