Llanfechell is 1.5 miles from Cemaes Bay on Anglesey's northern tip in an aonb. The village is named after the 12th-century Mechell Church, where St. Mechell is buried. The ancient Parys mountain copper mines, with their lunar-like landscape, are seven miles away. The area is popular with geologists and archaeologists due to the rock formations at Mechell Mountain and the several ancient monuments scattered around. Llanfechell has a village pub that serves traditional ale. Nearby Cemaes Bay has three pubs, a few shops, a natural sheltered harbour, and a sandy beach edged by grassy cliffs. Anglesey's miles of stunning and varied coastline offer walking, cycling, birdwatching, watersports, fishing, and quality golf courses. Anglesey Sea Zoo and National Trust properties and gardens are on this beautiful island, and Holyhead offers a day trip to Dublin. A family-friendly location.

An idyllic setting and well situated for touring the island or relaxing in the garden watching the many different birds that feed there. Thanks for a nice time Gwen.

It's like staying at your Grandma's I'm not a bird fancier but you can't fail to be impressed by the gardens that are so inviting to the amazing bird life. For accommodation on Anglesey at this price point, you'd struggle to beat it. The metered electricity may put some off but it cost a lot less than anticipated and Gwen leaving 2 x £1 coins on the side was generous. Would we stay again? Yes we would, in a heartbeat. In summer the garden would be jaw dropping. I'd have to say, the best place we've stayed on the Island in 5 years of going there. A huge part of staying in self catering accommodation is the owner and Gwen bless her , she's amazing. A real pleasure to meet and make a new friend.. Gwen, we'll be in touch soon to rebook.
