It has a village church that dates back to the 12th century and is located between Llanddona beach and Red Wharf Bay, which has over 4.5 miles of sandy beach.

The large bay attracts a huge number of waterfowl and wading birds, including shell duck, grey plover, purple sandpipers, curlew, oystercatchers and dunlin. Only 6 miles away is the delightful medieval town of Beaumaris which boasts a 13th century moated castle, excellent shops, pubs, restaurants, bistros and museums, as well as a golf course and exciting pleasure boat and sea fishing trips.

Was exremely well appointed and had everything we needed. Both bedrooms with own bathrooms was fab. Just one suggestion for a shower mat as my mother found the shower base slippy. perhaps also a visitor book for feedback- which I am sure would be very positive but people staying can pass on suggestions for walks and places to eat and visit. Other peoples recommendations can be very helpful.

Hugh the owner popped over to check we had everything we needed and checked we knew how to operate the heating etc. This was a lovely touch, he is a very genuine lovely man. The accommodation had everything we needed and more. We only used 1 bedroom and bathroom, but there was another bathroom with a bath ,loo and sink and twin beds, and wardrobe and plenty of space. We had a double bed and bathroom with a walk in shower, loo and sink our room was spacious and had wardrobes also. Their was a cupboard with cleaning equipment which is great when you have dogs etc. The living space has a big leather sofa and chair, tv, dining table and a kitchen running along the wall. This worked really well for us, as it meant we were all together and could keep am eye on the dogs. From the living room there are sliding patio doors that open up onto a decked area that is as long as the bungalow, this was great for our dogs as they were contained, we also sat out side and enjoyed a drink watching the sunset. The decking overlooks a play area which is quite large and has a trampoline and an sorted swing set. There is also a field next to the accommodation where you can walk your dog. All in all we had a wonderful break, the weather was sunny, and the location and accommodation were fab
