“Wonderful location, beautiful setting.”

Light, bright and a happy space. Perfect for our family- grandparents, mummy, daddy and baby. Mr Parry was very helpful. We had a great time.

Light, bright and a happy space. Perfect for our family- grandparents, mummy, daddy and baby. Mr Parry was very helpful. We had a great time. If there is one point for improvement it would be steps/slope directly into the garden area. We would definitely recommend Black Horse Cottages to our friends.

Christine September 2021

“Basic accommodation with no frills.”

Clean and adequate provision, but no welcome pack or guest soap, which have been standard in all other lets.

- Christine, September 2021
Neale September 2021

“This is our second stay at this property , the owners made us feel welcome and nothing was too much for them, we were even given bunches of grapes and tomatoes from their garden.”

We would 100% recommend Black Horse cottages and would suggest they are used as an example to other below standard lets of how to do it properly. We have been back to a number of properties over the years if they are good in all areas , our previous holiday with Sykes was a disaster and we'll never return to that holiday let.

“Very quite location out 3rd visit”

Mike June 2021

“Nice location, handy for all locations.”

Peacefull destination with nice views of surrounding countryside.Excellent outdoor veranda with chairs and table. Access road to cottage is terrible with lots of big potholes that need fixing urgently. not good for tyres and suspension, a real bone shaker. No helpfull information folder with regard to cottage instructions or places to visit or walks etc. 3- piece sofa and chairs are very old and uncomfortable, need replacing urgently, also badly scratched, presume by previous dog visits. Shower in double bedroom is leaking and needs replacing. regardles of above we had an enjoyable holiday

“The comfort, facilities and convenient location of this cottage are absolutely first class.”

Spotlessly clean throughout in all detail, well appointed light and airy accommodation with most welcoming attitude from the owner.

- Eric, May 2021
John May 2021

“This is the second time of going to Black horse cottages, and we will certainly be going back.”

The cottages a lovely, warm,clean and very welcoming. The owners are lovely people and will help anytime if there any problems or you need anything.

- John, May 2021
Fiona May 2021

“The sofa seating is quite low as the springiness has gone out of the cushions, so not that comfortable to sit on.”

Also, the single beds could do with some memory foam toppers, as they were a little hard. I would advise taking your own hand towels for the bathrooms and kitchen. Apart from that, the cottage is warm, cosy, very clean and in a lovely peaceful location. Ideal for travelling around Anglesey.

- Fiona, May 2021
Marilyn April 2021

“Comfy cottage, in the middle of quiet countryside but easy drive to beaches and other locations in this beautiful part of Wales.”

Cottage is down a rough track but there is plenty of space to park right outside your cottage. Well equipped, property with sunny balcony to sit and admire the views. Children love the playground and the friendly horses and donkey in the adjoining fields.

- Marilyn, April 2021

“Dogs are not allowed in the garden at this property nor was it accessible from the back door.”

We had requested a secure garden because of the dogs so not ideal. Wouldn’t recommend this property for dog owners.

- E, August 2020
Kenneth July 2020

“The accommodation was superb.”

The views are amazing. We watched a horse play with her foal in the field everyday. The weather could have been better but Newburgh beach and Benllech bay did not disappoint. The Liverpool Arms in Beaumaris had just reopened and the food and Covid precautions were outstanding. We spent week with my sister and brother in law and it proved to be a lovely antidote to lockdown.

- Kathryn, May 2019
Amanda April 2019

“Lovely cottage in a lovely rural location with horses, cows, pheasants and rabbits running around.”

Lovely decked area out the back to enjoy sitting in the sun and this was safely enclosed for our two dogs to come and go through the patio doors as they wanted. Situated just as you arrive on the island and a good base to explore from. Owner met us on arrival and was very pleasant. Would have no qualms returning but might try the Farmhouse Cottage next time if we take some friends with us.

- Amanda, April 2019
Diana March 2019

“Have been to these lovely cottages before so knew how nice they were.”

However this time we arranged to go with friends as we knew there were 2 bathrooms. However as there is no shower in the ensuite of the twin bedroom it meant we had to share the shower in the enquire off the main bedroom which was a tad awkward getting ready in the morning.... Only a small detail otherwise it worked really well and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Will book again in the future I am sure.

- Diana, March 2019
hilary March 2019

“Thought it was brill as the owner left milk for us and knocked and introduced himself to us.”

Over the years I have stayed in cottages with various firms and in a variety of different places Black Horse Cottage is the best by far I have stayed in It was spotlessly clean and we were made welcome by the family who own the property All the facilities were in excellent condition (take my word I have stayed in places where they weren't but not with Sykes) It was in a quiet location but not far from amenities I would highly recommend this property to any future visitors to Anglesey

- Audrey, September 2018

- Sharon, August 2018
Daniel July 2018

“A lovely place to stay.”

Very friendly owner who was really helpful even when I (temporarily) lost my door key. Quite secluded but if you are travelling without a car (like us) , then it is close to a bus stop to Bangor direct one way and Benllech the other. No WIFI, but good phone signal including 4G.

- Daniel, July 2018
Mark July 2018

Kenith May 2018

“Really enjoyed our 3 days in Black Horse Cottages.”

The weather was excellent which always helps. But the cottage was very nice. It was surrounded with fields and horses. The veranda always had the sun in the afternoon. The cottage had all facilities that you would need. And it is in a great location. It is 5-10 minutes drive from Red Wharf Bay. And within easy driving distance of all beaches in Anglesey (we went to 5-6 beaches in total) as well as South Stack and Beaumaris.

- Kenith, May 2018

- Joan, November 2016
Susan October 2016

“This cottage gave us all that we had hoped for: quiet location but easy access to mainland as well as island destinations, good facilities well laid out, spotlessly clean, well heated and comfortable.”

We very much appreciated Mr Hughes' helpful attitude. Honestly presented, no.3, Black Horse Cottages was spot on for me and my elderly mother, although it would also have been good for children. I would certainly recommend it.

- Susan, October 2016
Jeffrey September 2016

...disappointing, also no instructions on any re-cycling for newspapers etc otherwise was fine.

- Jeffrey, September 2016

Joanne April 2014

“This cottage and its location gave us the ideal setting for some much needed family time.”

We explored the island and its beautiful beaches, played with our girls and just enjoyed each others company. We do holiday abroad every year but I can honestly say that this holiday will be marked in our hearts as the best yet! Just proving that you don't need fancy expensive hotels and endless hours of applying sun tan lotion to have a good time, this week, the cottage, the island and all it has to offer, can be summed up by my 7 year old, this place is just awesome mummy, just awesome!

- Joanne, April 2014

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.
