Mr Jones
October 2020

“Super cottage will certainly go back, ideal location for west and east of the Island.”

A beautiful place.

A beautiful place. Single beds are not as good as the main bed - feel all the springs.. maybe for children.

- Mr Jones, October 2020
Mr Gough September 2020

“This is our third stay in the Henblas Granary and again was very enjoyable.”

It is set in beautiful grounds and is quiet and peaceful, within easy reach of lovely beaches. The garden and woodland is home to red squirrels, a delight to watch!

- Mr Gough, September 2020
Mrs Guise August 2020

“Unfortunately we were not informed that the washing machine was not available, apparently Sykes Cottages should have told us.”

Otherwise the cottage was lovely, especially the grounds.

- Mrs Guise, August 2020
Mrs Carr August 2020

“Beautiful location.”

Absolutely stunning area. Lots to see and do. Cottage close to local shop and lovely pub a short drive away. Supermarket in a village about 3-4 miles away. Nice cafe there too. Lovely people EVERYWHERE we went. Near to lovely beaches. Aberffraw Beach and estuary about 3-4 miles away. Great for little kids as lots of shallow pools. Lovely cafe there too.

Mrs Evans September 2019

“The accommodation was extremely pleasant and ideally situated to various tourist sites in Anglesey.”

I received a lovely welcome from the owner together with flowers and Welsh cakes which were very well received. I was lucky enough to see a red squirrel and a barn owl on the premises and would highly recommend a holiday vacation there.

“Henblas Granary is a very comfortable and well appointed cottage, set in beautiful gardens and woodland complete with red squirrels.”

The scenery on Anglesey is stunning and most of the beautiful sandy beaches are dog friendly. Mr and Mrs Davies made us very welcome and we look forward to staying there again in the future.

- Mr Gough, May 2019
Mr Whalley May 2019

“Wonderful setting - located within a quieter area on the Island - the only place on our travels around Anglesey that we found to be busy was Rhosneigr [although our break was taken inearly May] and this appears to have always been the case - will happily return for another holiday in the future.”

- Mr Whalley, May 2019
Mr Lord April 2019

Mr Davies March 2019

“A beautiful old granary in a super location in the grounds of an old house with lovely wooded walks.”

Mrs Gilks April 2018

“This is a lovely cottage in a wonderful scenic location.”

The stairs leading up to the accomodation are the only downside and we had to be careful when the toddler headed for the door, however the swing in the garden was a great favourite. There's an enclosed paddock available for dog owners which is very safe. We very much enjoyed our stay at Hen Blas.

- Mrs Gilks, April 2018
Ms hilton April 2018

“A warm welcome by the owners and always at hand if we needed anything.”

a beautiful grade 2 listed building with gorgeous well kept grounds. A private paddock where you can exercise your dog. Everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing holiday. A fantastic location, not only very beautiful and tranquil but well placed for all the gorgeous blue flag beaches but also not far from the centre of Llanefgni for shops and supermarkets. An ideal place for both singles, couples and families especially if you have pets and want to share your holiday with the whole family. Would definitely return and recommend to friends and family.

- Ms hilton, April 2018
Mrs Collick March 2018

“Lovely accommodation and in a beautiful setting and close to wonderful walks and beaches.”

perfect for us and our two dogs.

- Mrs Collick, March 2018
Mr Hillier-davies November 2017

“We spent a perfect week at this lovely cottage on Anglesey.”

The property is not far from the bridge onto the island and approached down a tree-lined drive. It’s set in beautiful, peaceful countryside, surrounded by woods and fields with grazing sheep. The cottage is accessed via a flight of outside steps and is very comfortable and spacious, with everything you need for your holiday - and perfectly snug and warm, even in December. Our dog had a great time, walking in the woods and running off his lead around the enclosed paddock area. Everywhere on Anglesey is within easy reach, just a short drive to Holyhead or Beaumaris and any of the great beaches and hiking areas. We can’t recommend this property highly enough.

- Mr Hillier-davies, November 2017
Ms Reed October 2017

Beautiful grounds and great for dog owners

- Ms Reed, October 2017

Mrs Edwards December 2016

“Lovely quiet location could hear owls talking at night!”

Lovely paddock to let dogs off in. Overall a good place to relax and get away from the maddening crowd.

- Mrs Edwards, December 2016
Mr Palmer October 2016

“Lovely cottage and woodlands for the dog”

- Mr Palmer, October 2016
Mrs Rickard October 2016

“We booked this cottage for a relaxing week with our two springer spaniels and had an amazing time.”

The granary is set in the most beautiful surroundings and the cottage itself is like home from home, I have never stayed anywhere that is so well equipped and comfortable. The dog area is totally fenced in and has trees and bushes which our dogs loved exploring and sniffing round without us worrying they would go too far. It was our first trip to Anglesey but we will certainly be back in the near future.

- Mrs Rickard, October 2016
Mr Gough September 2016

“The Granary is a very comfortable cottage in a beautiful setting of gardens and woodland.”

It is very quiet and peaceful there. Mr. & Mrs. Davies are very welcoming and helpful. We spent a most enjoyable week exploring Anglesey with our dog, and were delighted to find that nowhere was very far from the cottage. There are plenty of dog-friendly beaches within very easy reach. The scenery and views of Snowdonia are stunningly beautiful and we should certainly like to stay there again. Many thanks for a lovely holiday.

- Mr Gough, September 2016
Mr Joyce September 2016

“The fenced in paddock was much enjoyed by TED our saluki.”

The area gave us much to explore especially new borough forest & fabulous beach.

- Mr Joyce, September 2016
Miss Fletcher July 2016

The garden was exceptional and the enclosed field for dogs was brilliant. All of the grounds are beautifully kept and the owners were attentive.

- Miss Fletcher, July 2016
Mrs Dixon July 2016

“Location was fab.”

Really lovely garden and woodland. Owner was very welcoming and friendly. Not stayed in a dog friendly property for a long while and was happy to note that it didn't smell doggy! Lovely location, easy access to beaches and great owners.

- Mrs Dixon, July 2016
Mr Miller June 2016

“This property is in a great location and has excellent décor with wonderful grounds.”

The owners very friendly.

- Mr Miller, June 2016
Mr Gittings June 2016

“A delightful cottage in superb grounds, with friendly and helpful owners.”

Particularly appreciated the fenced area for playing with the dog. There were many local footpaths and a well stocked shop about 2 miles away. It was very convenient for anywhere on the island as it is only a couple of miles from the A55.

- Mr Gittings, June 2016
Mr James May 2016

“We can certainly recommend Henblas.”

The gardens were lovely and Mr. and Mrs Davies were very helpful and directed us to some really great places to visit.

Henblas Estate Cottages

Malltraeth 3 miles. Two unique character cottages located in extensive grounds, comprising of mature woodland and carefully tended gardens, close to the owners’ home, on the edge of the hamlet of Llangristiolus, three miles from Malltraeth and around five miles from the popular coastal villages of Aberffraw and Newborough, on the South coast of Anglesey. These two charming cottages retain many original features dating back to the 17th century and are preserved by a Grade II* listing to ensure they are kept secure for future generations. Set around a large central courtyard and both accessed up external steps, they offer all the usual home comforts that you would expect from a quality holiday cottage. There is ample parking in the courtyard, away from the owners’ home, and you have your own private garden table at which you can sit and relax in the peace and tranquillity of the area. You are also welcome to explore the owners’ 8 acres of delightful gardens, which host a charity open weekend once a year, and woodlands with red squirrels, snowdrops, daffodils and bluebells. Within the grounds is an enclosed paddock, which provides an excellent opportunity for children to play safely and dogs to exercise in freedom. Superb sandy beaches can be reached in a short drive, and the red squirrel woodland at Newborough Forest offers some beautiful unspoilt walks with access onto Newborough Warren, where you can sit and watch wind and kite surfers skim across the bay for hours on end. In the opposite direction, the Anglesey circuit is easily reached within 15 minutes’ drive for racing enthusiasts and day spectators to enjoy the thrill of the track. Two excellent holiday homes with plenty to see and do within easy reach.

About the location

MALLTRAETH

Newborough 2 miles; Rhosneigr 8 miles.

The small village of Malltraeth lies in the south west corner of Anglesey, at the head of the long inlet formed by the Cefni Estuary and close to the popular Newborough Forest and Warren sand dunes. Malltraeth Pool and the magnificent sweep of marshes and sand dunes, which stretch south to Llanddwyn Island, are all part of a National Nature Reserve. The whole area is renowned for its birdlife and Malltraeth was once home to the famous wildlife artist Charles F Tunnicliffe. There are wonderful forest and coastal walks from the village, which has a pub, a cafe serving afternoon tea and a chip shop (also selling basic items/newspapers etc). Close by are beautiful beaches at Llanddwyn (reputedly the 4th best in Britain), Aberffraw, and Cable Bay, or head to Rhosneigr, which is renowned for its all year round watersports facilities.
