  • "My partner and I really enjoyed our stay at the lovely location."

    Will certainly be returning for future breaks. Mr and Mrs Parry were the perfect hosts. No complaints whatsoever, thank you ...

  • "A lovely warm and cosy cottage, very well equipped with everything that we needed for a wonderful relaxing holiday."

    Perfect for us with the two en suite bedrooms and for all the space around for the dog. I think this was our ninth visit and as always we had a wonderful stay! Mr and Mrs Parry are so welcoming and helpful and always there if we need anything.

  • "Draughty front door making living room really cold, not what you expect on your holiday, owner said he didnt know about it but people have mentioned it before so he was telling porkys and not doing anything to fix the problem."

    No cleaning products, one toilet roll, no kitchen roll. very sparse kitchen with very blunt knives...it felt like stepping into an old canteen, everything is very very old and dated inc furniture and beds. Driveway up to cottage is horrendous... One washing line between 3 cottages. we would not return and feel robbed..sitting in a cold room on first night was an ordeal. Owner has no intention of fixing the door. they will take the money though. Sykes should sort this as its not right, i will be calling about it.

  • "Really lovely cottage, very nice quiet location and well laid out/setup."

    Suited us perfectly as a family of 4 (2A,2C) and two furry companions. The weather was typical February weather but didn’t dampen our spirits and we will definately look to use the black horse cottages again when we return to visit family! Met one of the owners (Huw) who was very friendly and very helpful letting us know all we needed to. Really pleasant, enjoyable short break

    .it was spacious and cosy at the same time. The views from the verandah were lovely. Owner Huw very helpful and good friendly pub and Chinese takeaway only 5 min drive up the road. Also very close to Bennlech bay and Red Wharf Bay and Moelfre definitely worth a visit..thank you.

  • "Our second holiday at Black Horse Cottages and again it didn't dissapoint."

    Nice and clean and very well presented. Nice welcome visit by Mrs Parry to see if everything was to our liking, told us to knock her door if we needed anything. Playground area was a big hit with our grandaughter who we couldn't keep away. Grass nicely mowed and all areas around the cottages very neat and tidy. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful place to relax in. Will definitely be back again for another holiday next year. Super cottages and given a well deserved 5 star rating.

  • "Nicely presented getaway; positioned well to access the whole island as well as some of the main attractions of North Wales and of the Snowdonia national park."

    Well equipped and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay very much. Only two very minor points to consider for the owner are the state of the access being a rough unmade road and that the entrance door seals were allowing draughts into the main living/dining/ kitchen area - only an issue in cold windy weather, though!

  • "We had a lovely stay!"

    The cottage was clean, comfortable, and cozy. It was in a good central location for getting to everywhere we wanted to visit. We would definitely go back again. The only thing we found lacking was that there was no hand soap in either of the bathrooms and there was only one toilet roll per bathroom, which was not enough for 3 people staying 5 days, but it was easy enough to go out and buy some extras.

  • "Overall a very comfortable and welcoming stay."

    It's a 5 Star from me - from the friendly and helpful owners on site, through to the cottage being beautifully presented, immaculately clean, and the location fantastic too. I highly recommend this cottage, and for those with restricted mobility, the ease of accessibility throughout the cottage is a plus. Thank you for a wonderful stay and we will most certainly be returning.

  • "We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage which was very well equiped."

    Just a few very minor suggestions that would make it even more perfect! 1. Not everyone likes very fragranced conditioner. For the first couple of nights we found the smell of the bed linen overpowering unless we slept with the window wide open (but it faded eventually). 2. Some hand wash in the bathrooms and kitchen would have been nice. 3. We worked out how to use the smart TV but some instructions would have been helpful. :

  • "The location was very good for our needs with good seclusion and parking."

    The property was comfortable but much of the kitchen equipment was a bit of a 'hitch-ptotch'. Sadly there were no instructions for the appliances apart from the very basic microwave. However the owners were very helpful with assistance when it was required. Whilst the weather was very good for our stay, when we had a rain shower the patio decking became very slippery.

    Cottage exceptionally clean and hosts welcoming.Our dog had a fantastic time too and we enjoyed watching the horses, cows,rabbits,swifts and pheasants. Very close to Red Wharf Bay and scenic drives into beautiful Beaumaris with Snowdonia in the distance. Chinese takeaway in Pentraeth was very good quality and value and catered for the dairy allergy of one of our group. Panton Arms was dog friendly and boys loved the pizza - staff were excellent and very friendly. A really enjoyable and relaxing holiday. Anglesey scenery stunning and the cottage was an ideal base to explore the island.Highly recommend.

    It was exceptionally clean and comfortable. It was very quiet with plenty of open space around it, ideal if you have a dog. We met the owner and he couldn't have been more friendly. You can reach anywhere on the island within about 30 minutes and there are so many places to go to. An added bonus was one of the best Chinese takeaways that we have ever had only a couple of miles down the road. The service we received from Sykes Cottages was top class.

  • "This is a well-equipped cottage, situated in a good position for touring near Pentraeth."

    I was concerned about going on holiday in the UK in October, but can confirm the cottage was well heated during our stay, despite being greeted by ‘Storm Alex’ on our arrival. I was also concerned about the quality of the wi-fi connection, as I use the internet on a daily basis, but I can also confirm the wi-fi was excellent and I encountered no problems whatsoever. Despite some bad weather, we did manage some nice trips out to most of the islands popular beaches and it is worth mention that Red Wharf Bay and Benllech can be reached by car in 15 minutes. We very rarely stay in the UK, but both my wife and I (and our puppy) thoroughly enjoyed this holiday.

About the location

PENTRAETH

Red Wharf Bay 2 miles; Benllech 3 miles; Beaumaris 6 miles.

Pentraeth is a small attractive village on the banks of the River Nodwydd on the north-east coast of Anglesey. 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. Red Wharf Bay’s Welsh name is Traeth Coch (Red Beach) and the area is renowned for its glorious sunsets. The bay is very shallow and provides safe bathing, perfect for wonderful family fun, fishing and miles of stunning scenic walks. 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. This is a great location on the east coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey, yet only six minutes from the Britannia Bridge to access the mainland.
