The views from Glan yr Afon are wonderful, not least from its balcony which catches the afternoon and evening sun as it sets over the sea. The whole design of the cottage is aimed at optimising the views, with an upside down layout where the bedrooms are on the ground floor and the living area is upstairs. This is a very pretty corner of Anglesey, with lots of little villages, coves and beaches to explore, including the spectacular strand at Rhosneigr which is famous for its surfing and other watersports. First Floor Open Plan Living Space The cheerful upstairs living area has views over the countryside, the coastline and the Irish Sea. On one side is the well appointed kitchen with all necessary appliances including an electric oven and hob, dishwasher, washer/dryer and microwave. On the other side is a light and bright seating area with smart TV. Sliding doors open to a balcony from which to make the most of the terrific views. Ground Floor Bedroom 1 King size bed with sliding patio doors Bedroom 2 A single room Bedroom 3 A cosy twin bedroom Family Bathroom A walk in shower room with WC and sink Outside To the back of the house there is an open plan garden leading onto the lobster pot restaurant. There is reserved parking for Glan yr Afon guests. The Local Area Located just next to the fabulous Anglesey coastal footpath, Glan yr Afon is a brilliant base for exploring the north section of the island. There are wonderful walks and lots of secluded beaches, many of which are only accessible by foot. Also nearby is Melyn Llynon (Llynon Mill), which is well worth a visit to see one of the last working windmills in Wales, where they also serve some of the finest doughnuts in the country. With the well-known Lobster Pot restaurant on the doorstep and Catch 22 just a short drive away, there are some excellent options for eating out. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transport -

Glan yr afon is a beautiful property in a beautiful location. Less than 5 minutes walk to the gorgeous church bay, coast path & wavecrest cafe and 10mins walk up the hill to the church bay inn - (great for kids outside & they often seem to have food vans during the summer). The property had absolutely everything we needed and the view from the balcony is fantastic. We absolutely loved it & would love to stay there again :-) ##### Alison F. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa T. 1 Jun 2025 #### Beautiful house in Church Bay Stunning location. House lovely and well equipped. Nothing to fault - would definitely book the place again. ##### Lisa T. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue G. 14 Apr 2025 #### Great spot Great location - minutes from the beach and the coastal path. Wavecrest cafe has great reviews but sadly was not open. ##### Sue G. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 4 Oct 2025 #### Glan Yr Afon September 2025 Our 3rd time here, everything was perfect, The cottage, as previously, was excellent, roomy, comfortable and with everything you could need. And, to top the week off, we had virtually a week of sunshine. The cottage is very convenient for seeing Anglesey, with the wonderful Church Bay 2 minutes walk from the cottage. Already booked for 2026\. Thank you.

House is clean and comfortable, with amazing views from upstairs. Admittedly this house is quite remote if you are planning on going on day trips to various places of interest. However the peaceful nature of Church Bay more than makes up for this. Having the beach so close is added bonus. Lobster pot restaurant right next door. If you visit and love seafood we recommend speaking to the guys at lobster pot seafood on the other side of the cottage and buying yourself some lobster/crab and cooking yourself. Something special about enjoying those views from your balcony while having dinner. ##### Craig L. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 2 Sept 2025 #### Great weekend away A party of 4 ladies stayed at the property for a long weekend. The view was fabulous, the house clean and comfortable but there are a few areas that need addressing. The hot tap in the toilet is the wrong way round. The sink in the bathroom takes a long time to drain. The quilts on the single beds are not full single quilts they must be off children’s beds as quite small and would not have been adequate if it was cold. We toured the area from Church Bay easily. Our favourite place was Moelfre and lunch at Annie’s Pantry. We also visited Trearddur Bay (and saw dolphins )and Rhosneigr. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 6 Aug 2025 #### Lovely place to stay but some issue with the building Lovely place adjacent to the beach & coastal walks. Beautiful view from the full-width window. Some concerns. No information to say there was an unprotected deep ditch yards from the house (we had our 3-year old grandson with us). No window in main bedroom to open for ventilation - only a full-length sliding window. No blinds on full-length window upstairs - also window very heavy to open. Instructions on how to use the cooker would be helpful (+ some cooking tins) ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Macdonald Plas Talgarth Holiday Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Machynlleth-Hotels-Macdonald-Plas-Talgarth-Holiday-Resort.h13232286.Hotel-Information) > > [The Anchorage Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holyhead-Hotels-The-Anchorage-Hotel.h30459397.Hotel-Information) > > [Château Rhianfa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Menai-Bridge-Hotels-Chateau-Rhianfa.h5103718.Hotel-Information) > > [Blanco's Hotel Port Talbot](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Talbot-Hotels-Blancos-Hotel-Port-Talbot.h31632244.Hotel-Information) > > [The Towers Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Neath-Hotels-The-Towers-Hotel-And-Spa.h2305564.Hotel-Information) > > [Lake Vyrnwy Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oswestry-Hotels-Lake-Vyrnwy-Hotel-Spa.h879530.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Cabin Sleeps 5 Glan Gwna Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Caernarfon-Hotels-Stunning-2-Bed-Chalet-In-Caernarfon.h58060470.Hotel-Information) > > [Seiont Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Caernarfon-Hotels-Seiont-Manor-Hotel.h486288.Hotel-Information) > > [Plas Maenan Country House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llanrwst-Hotels-Plas-Maenan-Country-House.h41741536.Hotel-Information) > > [Lion Quays Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oswestry-Hotels-Lion-Quays-Hotel-Spa.h1379396.Hotel-Information) > > [Trearddur Bay Beach house](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holyhead-Hotels-Trearddur-Bay-Beach-House.h36498018.Hotel-Information) > > [Quay Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Conwy-Hotels-Quay-Hotel-And-Spa.h1517268.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott St. Pierre Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-St-Pierre-Marriott-Hotel-Country-Club.h65879.Hotel-Information) > > [Rossett Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wrexham-Hotels-Rossett-Hall-Hotel.h574570.Hotel-Information) > > [Tre-Ysgawen Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llangefni-Hotels-Tre-Ysgawen-Hall.h3499549.Hotel-Information) > > [Beaufort Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mold-Hotels-Beaufort-Park-Hotel.h912336.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Aberavon Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Talbot-Hotels-Best-Western-Aberavon-Beach-Hotel.h865770.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Newport Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Mercure-Newport-Hotel.h46182979.Hotel-Information) > > [The Druidstone Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Haverfordwest-Hotels-The-Druidstone-Hotel.h23532098.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cliff Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardigan-Hotels-The-Cliff-Hotel-Spa.h11900793.Hotel-Information) > > [Tŷ Magor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Ty-Hotel.h3928584.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Portmeirion & Castell Deudraeth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penrhyndeudraeth-Hotels-Hotel-Portmeirion-Castell-Deudraeth.h10075714.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel St David's, Nr Chester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Deeside-Hotels-Village-Hotel-St-Davids.h903462.Hotel-Information) > > [The Valley Anglesey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holyhead-Hotels-The-Valley-Anglesey.h35080247.Hotel-Information) > > [Nant Ddu Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Merthyr-Tydfil-Hotels-Nant-Ddu-Lodge-Hotel.h15447245.Hotel-Information) > > [Trearddur Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holyhead-Hotels-Trearddur-Bay-Hotel.h15717627.Hotel-Information) > > [The Beach Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holyhead-Hotels-The-Beach-Motel.h4781022.Hotel-Information) > > [Herons Lake Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mold-Hotels-Herons-Lake-Retreat.h33266089.Hotel-Information) ---
