Glan Yr Afon - sleeps 5 guests in 3 bedrooms
Church Bay is renowned for having some of the most spectacular sunsets in North Wales. 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.

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.
