Branwen is a lovely place to stay. This is our second visit with our son and granddaughter, lots of space, open and airy. The animals outside are an added extra. Easy reach of most places on the island, would highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay and had perfect sunny, warm weather 😎 The house is very comfortable, it had everything we needed including the standing fan which was used every evening to cool the living area. The outdoor area was fantastic to sit and stargaze every evening.The shower was great and bed was ok...We did however have problems with the sprinkler system alarm going off but this was sorted immediately by the owners. Remember to bring milk etc as there wasn't any on arrival, but there was 6 eggs and some Welsh cakes 😋We would definitely recommend staying here.

One of, if not the best holiday cottage we have stayed in. It is roomy, comfortable and well equipped. The large Tesco store in Holyhead made shopping easy, while the A55 makes driving to the Holyhead area from the Menai Straight bridges easy and fast.
