Gorgeous little cottage in a fantastic location - easy access to N Wales coast, Anglesey, Lynn Peninsula and Snowdonia. The cottage was incredibly well equipped and hosts are very welcoming and friendly.

Fantastic stay
The cottage was spotless and was very comfortable. The location was just perfect for Anglesey and Eryri National park; as well as for lovely walks directly from the cottage. Thank you to the hosts too who were so friendly and welcoming. We look forward to coming back!
This was just perfect for us and two of our grandchildren. A very comfortable cottage. Pamela was a very helpful and kind hostess. Some lovely touches, such as fresh flowers on the table.

Beautiful cottage
The cottage was lovely - clean and had everything we needed. The hosts were very welcoming and always hand if we needed anything. The location was ideal for exploring north Wales and Anglesey with Bangor just down the road for a supermarket and Bethesda a short drive in the other direction for takeaways. All in, a beautiful cottage in a beautiful location.

Excellent!
We were fortunate to stay at Ysgubor while having renovation work done on our house. The host was very pleasant, helpful and accommodating. The cottage had everything we could absolutely need and more. It was comfortable, very clean and the fittings and furniture were all of a high standard. We couldn’t have asked for more and we highly recommend the accommodation. The location is very convenient being close to the A55 and there is ample parking. The dogs , cats ⬛ and chickens were an added bonus as were the beautiful, fresh eggs that we could provide on site.
Very well finished apartment converted from cattle shed with old stone walls but interior finished to high spec. 2 single and 1 ensuite double bedroom, all comfortable. 1 additional toilet + shower. Small courtyard at back facing onto fields - ideal for BBQs and late evening gatherings. All BBQ equipment is included. Owners stay next door so easy access for any requests, including fresh farm eggs, available to purchase. Besides which, owners were friendly and responded promptly to any requests including fans etc. [It was a warm, sunny weekend] Pet friendly. Property is just outside village, so surrounded by countryside and interesting walks. However, close to main roads. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful barn stay
Stayed for half term with wife, two Teens and a dog. Welcomed as we arrived and left milk and Welsh Cakes to enjoy. Such a lovely place and well equipped converted barn. Lovely having the wood burner which warmed us up well, all the amenities you need in a home away from home. Maybe a more comfortable mattress that’s less springy, but otherwise a perfect stay, and we WILL be returning!

Wonderful cottage and host!
We had a lovely stay here and it felt like home away from home! Super clean and Pamela was a great host... thank-you for the Welsh cakes and milk in the fridge! My mum also absolutely loved hunkering down to read while we were out walking. The cottage had such a lovely feel to it and was in a great location for where we needed to get to for our walks and photography... actually planning on coming through again it was so nice!

Nice cottage
We loved the place. Pam and Paul are friendly and they gave information about Wales. We had good weather and liked the view on the fields with sheeps. Cottage is near A5 and A55 and close to all the nice places. Wales is beautiful and friendly.

Beautiful cottage
Ysgubor is a beautiful cottage, it was very clean and well equipped. Our host was very welcoming and on hand if you needed anything ( which we didn’t as it’s all there)
Our son loved looking the chickens over the wall in the garden. Ideal location to get to everything we wanted to see in North Wales we would definitely return

Lovely cottage, great location
Ysgubor is a lovely place to stay - spotlessly clean and comfortable with everything that a family needs whilst on holiday. The little touches made us feel welcome (Welsh cakes, milk and fresh eggs). It’s a great base for exploring North Wales and Anglesey: beaches, castles, steam trains, walking etc.

Cosy Cottage away from hustle and bustle
Delightful cottage and a rare find with separate single rooms for the kids and two bathrooms, one was en-suite.
Kitchen was very well equipped and living area very comfortable.
The views of the countryside were stunning and location was just a few mins from A55, but you wouldn’t know it as was so peaceful.
Anglesey is a must to visit. Some of our favourite places are Beaumaris, Cemaes Bay, Rhosneigr and Aberffraw.
Pamela our host was very welcoming and on hand for help and advice.
Highly recommend this cottage as a base for exploring North Wales coast and surrounding area. We will be back.

Perfect Family Cottage for North Wales

Lovely country cottage with modern facilities.
Lovely cottage with extra touches for added comfort. It is conveniently located, but tucked away so it is nice & quiet. Lovely sunny garden to sit outside surrounded by fields. The hosts are friendly & helpful. We enjoyed our stay here & would definitely choose to book again.

Weekend stay for local wedding
Although tricky to find the cottage initially as the whole mountain uses the same postcode we enjoyed our stay very much.
The property was very clean and the showers were excellent.
The homemade jam and marmalade were also excellent.
Thankyou Paul
