Enjoy the complementary onsite course fishing lake or rest and recharge in this cosy cottage on the Isle of Anglesey. Sleeping three guests and one furry friend, the property makes a fabulous rural retreat or base for a small family. Enjoy relaxing walks along the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path (10 miles) or unwind on one of the many paw-friendly beaches. After a day of adventure, wander down to the shared decked area for a sundowner overlooking the lake.

The traditional property boasts many original features and is decorated in a country-cottage style. Five steps lead up to the spacious, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with its vaulted ceiling and exposed brickwork. You’ll find wooden flooring throughout, making it easy to deal with muddy pawprints, and a roaring wood burner for the hound to doze beside. Curl up in an armchair with your book or stretch out on the sofa to watch the TV/DVD. At dinner time, gather on the bench-style seating around the table. The cottage has a double and a single bedroom, as well as a contemporary shower room. Outside, dine on the small patio to the front of the cottage or in the shared area opposite. You are welcome to explore the extensive grounds surrounding the lake.

The charming fishing village of Moelfre is 10 miles away. Tuck into fish and chips on the paw-friendly pebble beach, or let Rover lead the way along the dramatic coastal path. The village is steeped in maritime history, and visitors are also welcome to explore the lifeboat station. Along the coast is the magnificent sandy beach of Traeth Lligwy (8.5 miles). It, too, welcomes furry visitors all year, and the dunes that run alongside the beach make a fantastic doggy playground. The bustling port of Holyhead is 13.5 miles away, and has a fabulous range of eateries, many serving local seafood.

Wonderful location for walkers, fishermen and dogs. Flash up your birdsong app whilst walking pooch round the lake in the morning. Very rural so a bit of a hike to the nearest pub.

Wonderful cottage in lovely grounds. Good location to be able to visit several places. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. This was our second stay and we wouldn't hesitate to return. Our dog loved exploring around the lakes.

The owner (and his dog) were very welcoming, the log burner had already been lit before we arrived. The cottage was spotlessly clean and warm, the log burner was superb and we used it every evening. We were even given a few more logs on our 2nd day. It is centrally located although quite remote but everywhere we visited on Anglesey was half an houRead morers drive or under. The fishing lakes were secluded and perfect for fishing if you wanted a quiet spot! Very dog friendly. We would definitely visit again. Hide

We had a fantastic week at the cosy Swallow Cottage. The spacious cottage is very well presented with modern living & featuring many period features. The wood burner was a great bonus over & above the separate central heating system . The picturesque fishing pond was great for walking our dog . The location is in central Anglesey so exploring the iRead moresland is only a short drive in any direction. Many wonderful coastal villages & towns to visit. The old copper mine not that far away was well worth a visit too.We knocked into Andrew the owner a couple of times when dog walking, he is very friendly & informative about the area. We look forward to returning in the future. Hide

We had the best holiday! In fact my son said it was the best holiday he'd ever had! The owners were wonderful, there if you needed them without being intrusive. My husband went fishing every day. Even the dog thoroughly enjoyed the holiday. It's a perfect location, quiet but close to so many places. A week wasn't long enough, so we'll definitely bRead moree back to Swallow Cottage! I can't recommend it more, you won't regret staying here. Hide
