We have stayed here twice before and came back again as the cottage is great and it's location is superb. It has a beautiful river running through the back garden just a few feet from the patio doors so we can sit and watch the wildlife any time of the day.
Some lucky visitors have spotted otters - which I would love to see. We saw some red faced mergansers swimming down the river on one occasion which we had not seen before. The heron we have seen in other years was nowhere to be seen.
The weather was typical of Wales - cool, mainly cloudy and, at times, wet. Nevertheless we managed a nice walk on huge sandy beaches each morning (when the tide was low so there was a huge expanse of sand for Lucy to run on). We were treated to helicopter and (red arrow) hawk jet pilot training (from RAF Valley) a few times to amuse us on the nearby beach. From the cottage we could walk along the river and alongside a railway line for 20 mins and then arrive to a splendid view of Caernarfon castle and the harbour.
The railway line is the Wales Highland Railway at this point so runs with rather quaint steam trains.
Another place we visited was the Copper Mine in north east Anglesey. It was both fascinating and beautiful.
