Church Gate Cottage

• "Church Gate Cottage was lovely - warm, cosy and comfortable."

  It's enclosed garden was great for my dog, but wet weather made me anxious about bringing mud indoors. Llanfaes was a great place to stay, next to Beaumaris with its independent shops and eating places. I loved going to Llanddona beach - a vast, usually empty stretch of sand. I think my only criticism of the cottage would be that some of the depleted crockery sets need replacements, as do the teaspoons. I would advise future guests to be wary of the small step down into the bathroom, as it's very easy to forget. I am looking forward to a return visit to Church Gate Cottage.

• "This was our 3rd stay at Church Gate Cottage and it won't be our last!"

  We just love it here. The cottage is well appointed and in a lovely, peaceful setting. This year we particularly appreciated the new seating both in the lounge and the garden. The sofa and chairs are much more comfortable than the ones still shown on the website. We had the pleasure this year of hearing some young tawny owls and saw one by the front door.

• "This was our second visit to Church Gate Cottage and it was all we remembered!"

  Cosy, spotlessly clean and well equipped. My husband has difficulty walking so most of our days were spent on site. Excellent walks from the cottage for our dog and myself. The large garden is a bonus. This year we only ate out once and thoroughly enjoyed a meal at The Boathouse in Red Wharf Bay. We certainly hope to return again next year. Ps. Thank you for the very welcome wine!

• "Whilst the property would be dog friendly for many, the rear garden was not fully secure and was not fully suitable for our young Irish setter who did her best to escape, so she was kept under control."

  The property was in excellent order and the kitchen lounge diner area was all that you need. only the shower in the bathroom was not to our taste as it just flooded the floor area..

• "As a couple with a aging Border Collie, we found Church Gate Cottage a wonderful place to stay."

  It's clear a lot of thought and effort has gone into the setup and that made for a really relaxing break, thank you. Things such as a well equipped kitchen, enclosed garden, wood burner and clothes washing/drying facilities meant we were able to really relax and enjoy our stay. Great views and a short walk to Beaumaris were the icing on the cake.

  Well appointed and comfortable. It was lovely of the owners to leave us a bottle of wine. I couldn't find a hairdryer but I rang the owners and they bought one for future guests. Hope to return, as we like the area and pleased we have found a lovely cottage to stay in.

• "We liked the cottage very much."

  I would have given a maximum score but there were a couple of issues. We had a problem with the shower. Hue, the owner did come over and it was sorted to a degree. The toilet flush was another thing. The cistern was very slow filling up, which mean’t. It was impossible to flush for quite some time after use. All this is odd as the bathroom facilities are new. No hair dryer. I have not experienced this anywhere else I have stayed. I had to go out and buy one. I did mention this to the owner. Also I couldn’t find the laundry bags for soiled linen ( as stated in the file.). Other than these things we enjoyed our stay, at Church Gate Cottage. Nice garden, quiet and peaceful,yet well positioned for. Beaumaris and lots of beauty spots.

• "Generally an excellent cottage in a beautiful,location."

  The single beds had slats which easily came apart and we had to put them back several times. They were being used by adults so we’re not being jumped on ! They may need some extra fixing underneath. The pillows were rather poor and caused some neck ache. Otherwise the fittings and decor are superb, and it was very pleasant to come home to such spacious accommodation after a day out.

  Thanks for your feedback. So sorry you had problems with the beds. The slats have just been replaced with better quality ones and the pillows will be renewed before the next guests arrive. Property Owner

• "The cottage was wonderful and was spotlessly clean with lots of lovely points."

  We loved the location and the beautifully maintained garden was a fantastic added bonus. We had a great week and will definitely return to explore Anglesey further. However, we did find the bedrooms slightly damp, the main bed was extremely comfortable but felt slightly small to be a king-sized (which was what was advertised), the sofa felt past it's best (not helped by only having one cushion) and the fridge was smaller than the one we have in our caravan fridge. None of these impacted on our enjoyment of the cottage but might be areas to consider for future improvement.

• "This is our second visit to Church GateCottage."

  It is set in a tiny hamlet on the outskirts of Beaumaris. Neighbours are very friendly and welcoming. We took our pet - the garden is very safe and well fenced, we didn't have to worry about him. There is a car parking space for the cottage so the car was off the road. The cottage has been very tastefully decorated. Great thought has been put into what visitors may need. Everything we could possibly require was there -including Netflix and Amazon Prime. The new 'fridge was a bonus because we wanted to keep shopping to a minimum. Beds comfortable/clean. We had a wonderful relaxing time. Our only puzzle was where to the rotational washing line - we couldn't find a spot in the garden!?

• "ThIs charming, spotlessly clean cottage is in a lovely quiet location opposite a church (which is sadly now closed) with lots of birds to spot and superb ever changing views of the Snowdonia mountains according to the weather conditions."

  The landscaped garden is a pleasure to sit in and there is a very ample private parking space which could easily fit 2 cars if needed. The interior is modern and fresh with a well equipped kitchen and bright living area. The wifi is excellent. The beds are extremely comfortable which meant we slept very well. Although the sofas are a little tired and you tend to sink into them everything else is a lot newer. We did have an issue with the toilet flush system while we were there but this was rectified by the owners and their plumber. We loved our stay here and would happily book this delightful cottage again.

  The owners gave us lots of recommendations which we followed up and some of the highlights of these were Newborough beach and Llanddona beach. Our little puppy Frankie loved the garden and you could tell the owners had thought about dogs when renovating the property.

  We feel so lucky with our last minute holiday!! The house was very clean and we felt confident that it was being cleaned thoroughly between rentals. The beds were really comfy and we all slept well. The cottage was so peaceful- opposite a lovely little church with no through traffic as it is at the bottom of a lane. It felt like a lovely retreat. The kids really enjoyed their time there and had a lovely little garden to play out in which was a massive bonus. The kitchen was well equipped and the appliances were easy to use. Thank you so much- would really recommend this house to anyone.

  The cottage is lovely, with a small, sun trap garden with a dining table and chairs. The area is very tranquil with views of Snowdonia. Good parking facility and a large shed for bikes, wetsuits etc. There is a outside tap to clean off sand etc. The owners emailed in advance of our arrival which was appreciated.

  We were thrilled to bits with Church Gate Cottage , it is sat in a peaceful little hamlet next to a beautiful old church. The cottage is spacious and pristine clean. The living room/ dining area/kitchen is bright with windows in all directions with two large comfy sofas , a large screen tv , wood burning stove , lovely kitchen with everything you could possibly need . The bedrooms have comfortable beds and sufficient hanging space . They are placed in such a position that when it’s a windy night you can’t hear a thing . The wet room is modern with a powerful shower sink and loo and you are provided with plenty of lovely quality fluffy towels. The entrance is spacious which we found useful fine erecting our dogs crate without being in the way. The garden is pretty and would be lovely to sit in in the summer . There are walks from the door. Beaumaris is a short drive down the hill , even if you don’t own a car there is a bus stop just around the corner . The views of the mountains are stunning and changed constantly . I would definitely recommend this cottage and we will be returning when we can.

  Beautiful decor and comfortable furnishings, plus its proximity to beaumaris and local beaches make it perfect for a relaxing holiday. We visited in winter and the weather was pretty awful so we spent quite a lot of time in the cottage. There is a range of DVDs provided which we made use of and we enjoyed family time playing games together. Our dog benefitted from the outdoor space and I was able to walk him down to the local beach or in the fields behind the church. We will definitely be coming here again.
