Across to Holy Island in Snowdonia, Gwynedd

Across to Holy Island Self-Catering

Nestled above the Cymyran Straits, a stunning stretch of beach that separates Anglesey from Ynis Cybi, known as Holy Island, stands this characterful cottage. Just a few hundred yards from the water’s edge, and surrounded by five acres of sprawling landscape, this home makes for the perfect setting for a coastal escape to Wales.

With a multitude of windows, you can make the most of your rural location from every room. The verdant garden is the perfect spot for sipping your morning coffee accompanied by the sea breeze and spending evenings at sunset as you enjoy a barbecued dinner and a glass of wine. Thanks to the rurality of this location, clear skies allow you to spot the constellations from your terrace – ideal for city dwellers seeking a restorative stay.

There are endless trails to hike in the area, including the Wales Coastal Path, as well as horseriding and bicycle routes to explore. After a long day on your walking feet, you’ll love coming home to this cosy cottage. Throw a log in the wood-burning fire, stretch out on the plump sofas and cheers to a fulfilling day with a glass of red.
