Glan Yr Afon is a 3-bedroom holiday cottage on the pretty north west coast of Anglesey at Church Bay. It is very close to the stunning Anglesey coastal path and to the well-known Lobster Pot restaurant. It is also in the same grounds as the Anchorage, another holiday property which has four bedrooms.

Gorgeous

I picked a bad week for weather but loved my week here. The cottage is lovely, so comfortable and cosy. The view is amazing and I loved having the balcony door open on the one day the weather allowed. Its perfectly situated, right next to the beach and the coastal path. Very peaceful.

From start to finish we had a brilliant time. The house was just as described and was comfy and in the most fantastic location, great sea and sunset views from the balcony. The outdoor area was perfect for a BBQ in the heatwave and despite a cut through the garden to the restaurant next door everyone we met was super friendly and checked in with us about our stay. We were welcomed with a hamper of goodies and a personalised card which was a lovely touch. The lounge/kitchen area being open plan was great for our stay and the lounge itself super comfy. The balcony was such a sun trap in the evening and a great place to sit with a drink watching the sunset. We’d highly recommend a stay here and will hopefully be booking to come back soon.

We are a "mature" married couple walking the coastal path, and this is our third visit to Anglesey. We both thought that Glan yr Afon was the best house we've stayed in. It's comfortable, very well designed and in a wonderful position overlooking the coast and countryside. The outside balcony really comes into its own on a sunny evening. We had a meal in the Lobster Pot one evening and enjoyed it immensely, and we also bought some dressed crab from the office around the corner. It was excellent quality and really fresh. Yes, a great week in a lovely house!

The cottage is spacious, clean, modern, well-appointed, the hospitability team are super-helpful and set the place up with very welcome goodies. But the most wonderful aspect of Glan yr Afon is its superb first floor balcony, sliding window and the magnificent view! We were blessed with a week of excellent weather so this feature was magnified - from morning stillness with birds on the field and early light on the water, to magnificent sunsets over the sea and Holyhead mountain. You can't beat it! Thank you Tristan and the team.

We enjoyed our stay at this pretty location with great views over fields and the sea. We loved the balcony and the house was cosy even when we had terrible weather. Well equipped too. We knew the house was” upside down” but I think it worth noting the stairs to the living areas are very steep and narrow for anyone with mobility issues.

Our 3rd time here, everything was perfect, The cottage, as previously, was excellent, roomy, comfortable and with everything you could need. And, to top the week off, we had virtually a week of sunshine.
The cottage is very convenient for seeing Anglesey, with the wonderful Church Bay 2 minutes walk from the cottage.
Already booked for 2026.
Thank you.

This is our 4th visit to Glan Yr Afon.
We love Church Bay, this property is perfect for us, being only a five minute walk from the beach!
The accommodation is bright, clean and spacious, with a well equipped kitchen and stunning views to the hills and sea from the main living area.

A party of 4 ladies stayed at the property for a long weekend. The view was fabulous, the house clean and comfortable but there are a few areas that need addressing. The hot tap in the toilet is the wrong way round. The sink in the bathroom takes a long time to drain. The quilts on the single beds are not full single quilts they must be off children’s beds as quite small and would not have been adequate if it was cold.
We toured the area from Church Bay easily. Our favourite place was Moelfre and lunch at Annie’s Pantry. We also visited Trearddur Bay (and saw dolphins )and Rhosneigr.

Glan yr afon is a beautiful property in a beautiful location. Less than 5 minutes walk to the gorgeous church bay, coast path & wavecrest cafe and 10mins walk up the hill to the church bay inn - (great for kids outside & they often seem to have food vans during the summer).
The property had absolutely everything we needed and the view from the balcony is fantastic. We absolutely loved it & would love to stay there again :-)

Lovely place adjacent to the beach & coastal walks. Beautiful view from the full-width window.

Some concerns.
No information to say there was an unprotected deep ditch yards from the house (we had our 3-year old grandson with us).
No window in main bedroom to open for ventilation - only a full-length sliding window.
No blinds on full-length window upstairs - also window very heavy to open.
Instructions on how to use the cooker would be helpful (+ some cooking tins)

Stayed here at end of May and can honestly say we will definitely return.

House is clean and comfortable, with amazing views from upstairs.
Admittedly this house is quite remote if you are planning on going on day trips to various places of interest. However the peaceful nature of Church Bay more than makes up for this.

Having the beach so close is added bonus.
Lobster pot restaurant right next door. If you visit and love seafood we recommend speaking to the guys at lobster pot seafood on the other side of the cottage and buying yourself some lobster/crab and cooking yourself. Something special about enjoying those views from your balcony while having dinner.

Great location - minutes from the beach and the coastal path.
Wavecrest cafe has great reviews but sadly was not open.
