The Anchorage is a spacious 4-bedroom holiday cottage at Church Bay in the northwest corner of Anglesey. Located within the grounds of the well-known Lobster Pot restaurant and very close to the Anglesey coastal footpath and the Blue Flag beach at Church Bay, it’s a great base for a wonderful seaside holiday.

Perfect family get together venie

Celebrating turning fifty with my sister and brother, we stayed for a week with her son and daughter (also celebrating turning 30!), my husband (celebrating a birthday too!) and a friend (another twin, celebrating 40, but without her womb-sharer!) and from the moment we entered the chorus of "this place is gorgeous/perfect/fantastic" was being echoed by everyone.

Fabulous dining area where we spent most evenings playing card and board games, laughing, catching up, eating and drinking - it was easily the center of our "at home" life, exactly as a kitchen to dining area should be.

The comfortable lounge area where we could easily connect up various computers and games consoles for gaming was spacious enough that we could all get involved too, and everything being open plan meant that even if we split as a group into two different activities, we were still all communicating as a full family group and making the most of those moments where we finally all get together, a sibling event that seems to be rarer as we get older.

Meals out were easy to find, with plenty of eating places within short driving distance, and literally on our doorstep "The Lobster Pot" where we had booked for our main celebration meal.

Despite it being a little short of the real tourist season, places were opening up and starting to get themselves ready for the Summer, so we managed to experience most of what was on offer in the area, from the walks, to the activities and the adventure days.

Topping off with the amazing local eateries, again, many just warming up for the real season, we had a fabulous time.

The home itself proved to be perfect for the seven of us, well equipped, warm when needed (rarely, we were very lucky with the weather) and easy to air out when over-warm.

The kitchen, once we figured out the oven (seriously, seven adults scratching their heads trying to figure out an oven none of us had come across was hilariously embarrassing!), was equipped with the tools, pots, pans, baking sheets etc that we needed for any meal we cared to make, and easily accommodated full cooked breakfasts for seven most mornings.

All in, we would happily recommend The Anchorage at Church Bay to anyone looking for a slightly larger family/friend getaway.

Lovely house, our second stay, 5 minute walk from beach, spacious accommodation, and private parking space for guests of the property. Interior furnishings are tired, cooker function symbols worn off, gutter leaking in hallway, on suite shower rooms cramped and lacking shelving. Articlated lorries entering/leaving grounds so close to property to access warehouse/out buildings I found a bit unnerving at times.
