Thank you for such a wonderful stay at The Smithy, a cosy, clean and quiet base to explore Anglesey. We loved our stay so much, the children loved feeding the ducks, exploring the grounds and visiting multiple beaches that were only ever 10 mins drive away. We can’t wait to visit and stay at The Smithy again!

Had a lovely stay at The Smithy. Helen & Rick were very friendly and helpful, and we loved the resident ducks! Despite a rather wet week, we managed to get out and about exploring the island. Wonderful wildlife including Red Squirrels and a wide variety of birds, making it a peaceful and enjoyable break that we would highly recommend.

An excellent cottage in the heart of rural Anglesey. The cottage is very comfortable, warm and peaceful, with a great bed and a warm and cosy wood burner. The grounds are relaxing with ducks, red squirrels and even a weasel seen during our walk through the trees to the pond. The local bays and harbours are unspoilt by commercial development, feeling as though you have stepped back in to a gentler and more atmospheric time. Would thoroughly recommend.

The Granary was as described… comfortable and cosy, because of sloping ceilings and stairs may not be suitable for guests with limited mobility. The summerhouse, pond and woodland were lovely… The central location of the property meant it was easy to access all corners of Anglesey easily. Rick & Helen were excellent.

Red Squirrel is in a beautiful location a little out of the town. With ducks prancing around and trees softly dancing in the wind. Loved it!

David
30th August 2024

What a wonderful place to stay! The location is idyllic, with views over peaceful countryside. The Stables is very well furnished (including excellent wi-fi and Netflix for evenings in!). The mattress was softer than we would have liked, but others may prefer it that way. All in all, a terrific cottage in an absolutely perfect countryside location.

Bryan

The granary is the upstairs accommodation, all on one floor, kitchen, dining/sitting room, bathroom, twin bedroom and double bedroom. As the accommodation is in the attic there are low beams and the slope of the roof so be aware that a bumped head is always a possibility. It didn't bother us at all, it all adds to the quaintness of the property. Everything was spotlessly clean and well maintained. Helen the owner had left a welcome pack in the kitchen with tea bags, coffee, biscuits etc. There was a folder on the dining table with loads of information on the island, good beaches, local amenities and places to visit. All the rubbish is segregated for disposal or recycling hence there are 3 bins in the kitchen for the different types of refuse. Each property has it's own parking bay and we noticed that there was at least one EV charging point. The property is a little remote, very dark and quiet on a night but that suits us just fine. We can certainly recommend the granary to anyone who likes to get away from the busier areas of Anglesey.

What an amazing stay! The Smithy is gorgeous, it has everything you could need, beds are super comfy, gardens and views are really beautiful and peaceful. Helen and Rick were so friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make our stay the best. My daughter is autistic and loved the peaceful location. Helen recommended a quiet beach for her which was fab. Absolutely would recommend staying here to families, we will be returning soon.

We had such a lovely time. The area we stayed in was lovely and not to mention Helen and Rick were absolutely perfect.

What a lovely hidden gem of a place to stay. Our hosts Helen and Rick were amazing! The Smithy is an extremely well kept little cottage surrounded by beautiful countryside.

Beautiful surroundings, Red Squirrel Caravan is really nice and comfortable accommodation. Helen and Rick are very friendly and welcoming and gave great advice on local beaches to check out. The location is peaceful and quiet and set in beautiful countryside. It really is a stunning place. It's great for kids as they will love exploring the gardens and seeing the pond and wildlife. We will definitely like to go back and we will certainly recommend to friends and family.

Karen
6th May 2024

We had a fantastic stay at a wonderful, peaceful location. It was so relaxing to sit outside and hear nothing but the birds singing. We loved seeing the antics of the ducks too! Hedgehog caravan was spotless, and we had everything we needed for our short stay. Helen and Rick were very friendly and welcoming. My daughter enjoyed relaxing in the hammock soon after it was put up! Thank you Helen and Rick, we look forward to returning later in the year.

Janet

The Byre is a very comfortable cottage. A good base for touring the island. Very helpful owners, with suggestions of places to visit based on our interest in wildlife.

Ben
29th April 2024

The Smithy is a lovely comfortable little cottage, very clean, with everything you need, excellent quality in everything. Beautiful garden. Really pleased they had an electric car charger, saved worry about finding places to charge when we were out and about. We loved seeing red squirrels at Nant-y-pandy, the cliffs and seabirds at South Stack, and the huge beach & woods at Newborough. Hope to come back soon!

Gareth & Family
28th April 2024

Red Squirrel is in a perfect lovely peaceful location. Helen was lovely. Close enough to explore the island.

Gwen
26th April 2024

The Byre is a charming, clean and cosy little cottage, with comfy bed and good shower. Set in lovely grounds and surrounded by farm land, so lots to watch along with the resident ducks. Helen and Rick are excellent hosts and we hope to return!

Julie

Esther & family
11th April 2024

Helen and Rick were very friendly and our stay in Red Squirrel Holiday Home was amazing. We had some fantastic walks in the local area. The caravan was lovely spacious and had all the things we needed to self cater each night. The view from the caravan was sublime watching the local wildlife and the friendly ducks made my stay even more special. It had a lovely summer house stocked with dvds books pamphlets on local walks and a place to chill away from the caravan.

Jan
8th April 2024

I had a wonderful relaxed stay at The Smithy, with everything I needed to make me feel at home. It’s in wonderful tranquil setting, only a short drive to the coast and easy to travel to other places of interest. Everyone is so friendly on the island, which is reassuring when travelling solo.

Wojciech

Great hosts and accommodation. Hedgehog Caravan was very clean. We appreciated extras like the electric bed blankets and sharp knives in the kitchen. The gas heater kept us warm in the living room. Enough extension leads in every room.

Heather
9th March 2024

We had a great stay here and really pleased we found it. Helen and Rick the hosts were really lovely and welcoming and helped wherever possible. The Smithy is lovely, very clean and very well maintained. The garden around is also lovely and we enjoyed watching the ducks! It's in a very handy location fot reaching all parts of the island so we enjoyed visiting most parts of Angelsey. I hope to be back and I'd definitely recommend staying here to others.

Patrick
25th February 2024

The Byre was a lovely little place with a cottage feel. The views were amazing and the property exceeded our expectations. Sitting by the log fire made for a great evening after exploring Anglesey. Lots of beaches and pubs nearby with local shops and supermarkets a short drive away A supper comfortable king-size bed meant we both slept well.

First time staying on Anglesey and now wondering why its taken so long to discover this beautiful place. Made to feel very welcome on arrival and the very friendly owners were very helpful in sharing local knowledge. Beautiful grounds, lovely accomodation. Never more than a few minutes from a lovely beach. Really can't praise the owners enough. Lovely wildlife, saw dolphins off South stack, what a treat. Nothing but positive experiences all week. Will return without a shadow of a doubt. Thank you for making us feel so welcome at The Granary.

Jacqueline
8th September 2023

What wonderful hosts, providing information about places to go and things to see as and when needed. They were always on hand but not at all intrusive. If you want somewhere to rest and relax I cannot recommend it highly enough. The Smithy contained everything we needed to make our stay both comfortable and enjoyable.

Andrew & Janet
1st September 2023

Enjoyed every moment of our stay at the Stables, Helen and Rick were wonderful and the ducks were charming. Good location for traveling around the island, would definitely recommend going here.

Denise & Family
27th August 2023

Our holiday cottage The Stables was delightful. It was clean, tidy, comfortable and catered for our every need. The grounds were also fantastic, so peaceful and well kept providing a large garden and summer house should we want it with the added bonus of ducks that greeted us on arrival and came to see us everyday! The owners were superb (Helen and Rick) providing a beautiful welcome basket on arrival, offering homegrown tomatoes,cucumbers and chillies should we wish and were just so friendly from as soon as we booked through to when we left. My daughter and I are so glad that we chose to stay here. Thank you so much Helen and Rick and we hope to visit again soon!!

Michelle & family
26th August 2023

Well I’m a bit worried about saying what I think as I might not be able to book again for it being sold out lol. This place is stunning! Red Squirrel Holiday Home is quiet, private & picturesque. Everything you would want from a getaway. It’s so easy to get to anywhere on the island from here within 45 mins so the world is your oyster! Helen and Rick were absolutely amazing hosts and went above any beyond to make my little Attenborough wannabe feel right at home. We will be going back 100% and already looking forward to it!

Vicky & family
25th August 2023

We had a brilliant stay over bank holiday weekend in The Smithy, the beds were so comfy, cottage had everything we needed, the views were beautiful and the baby loved exploring the grounds and feeding the lovey ducks in the morning. It’s a great base to explore Anglesey and the hosts were lovely, had a good chat, made some recommendations on places to go and made a good fuss over the baby (she loves being fussed haha)

Gwen & family
21st August 2023

"This cottage flat had everything you needed home from home and the hosts Helen and Rick were so friendly and helpful, thankful for the free home grown tomatoes and cucumber." Thanks to Helen my Grand-daughter now enjoys eating tomatoes. My Grand-daughter was impressed with the ducks and freedom of the grounds which included an Orchard and Summer house with books, boules and binoculars and there were also hammocks to use

Jo
21st August 2023

Red Squirrel Holiday Home was situated in over 2 acres of lawns, trees and a pool, all which were well kept but perfect for the local wildlife. Birds, bees, bats and hedgehogs keep the pet ducks company and a hare and a stoat were spotted locally. Rick and Helen were the perfect hosts and so kind to share their piece of Paradise with others. The area is perfect for exploring by bike, foot or car and there are great local beaches, pubs and eateries without having to travel far. Highly recommended.

Keith
18th August 2023

Had a wonderful stay at The Granary. The cottage is in a brilliant location to visit the surrounding coastline. The property benefits from the use of an electric vehicle charger. The cottage had everything that we needed to make our stay comfortable, and the owners were the perfect hosts. Would highly recommend.

Caz & family
11th August 2023

The hosts have created an absolutely beautiful tranquil getaway. 4 stone cottages and 2 holiday homes which are set back from the cottages and positioned giving some privacy. The outlook was over the fully developed gardens, with tree canopies providing plenty of living accommodation for the numerous varieties of finches, blue tits, swallows, a rather tuneful Owl in the distance, a boat load of bats and a stunning wood pecker that visited the feeding station daily, never had the opportunity to see a woodpecker that close up! The resident ducks are happily taking themselves around the grounds from the pond at the bottom, to the gardens at the top, proper little characters! Unfortunately we only had a quick chat with Helen and Rick as they had family commitments but they were on the end of the phone if needed. Everything is well thought out here with aim to chill, and we have already booked for next year. Really worth a visit.

Rebecca and family
4th August 2023

Our second time at Deri Fawr and we were so happy to be back! Hedgehog Holiday Home is lovely and perfect for our family of 4. The kids love the spacious lounge, the grown ups love the electric blankets for those chilly Welsh nights! The grounds are so lovely and safe for the kids to play in (ages 5 & 8) and we feel like it's not just a base to explore Anglesey from, it's a destination in itself. We spent many mornings chilling and playing on site before we headed out anywhere! Helen and Rick are lovely, friendly hosts who make you feel so welcome. Our favourite beaches are little beach at Cemaes for rockpooling, Benllech beach for paddling in the shallow lagoons formed by the tides, Lligwy for size, beauty and pizza! We had a great day out at Pili Palas, we visited Parys Mountain for a stunning walk around the abandoned copper mining area (sunny day preferred for showing the amazing rock colours!) and we had superb wood fired pizza in the garden of the Panton Arms pub. We'll be back!!

Laura & family
4th August 2023

We loved our stay at Deri Fawr - its such a beautiful and peaceful place to be especially to appreciate nature and wildlife. We loved bat walks in the evening and star gazing. Whilst staying my boys enjoyed playing in the hammocks and the trees. There are plenty of beautiful places to see in the area - fishing and ice - creams in Moelfre, Dingle walk - we saw red squirrels, swimming in the sea and finding hidden beaches, a day trip to Dublin and many other hidden treasures of Anglesey. Thank you to Helen and Rick for being amazing hosts - so friendly and helpful. sending links for things to do, filling our bird feeder, giving us some hedgehog food and Helen's ice cream delivery! Thank you for our lovely stay.

Stephen & family
1st August 2023

We had a lovely stay in Red Squirrel Holiday Home. The hosts were very kind and there if we needed them. The Holiday Home was just as described and very suitable for our young family. The grounds are peaceful and private with plenty of wildlife to observe!

Fatima & family
30th July 2023

Fantastic hosts and fantastic place. Lovely peaceful area. Just the right balance of peace and quiet and not too far from touristy areas. My boys enjoyed the cows, the ducks and the swing and loved exploring the grounds. Helen and Rich gave us the privacy we needed but were always there to help when needed. The Holiday Home was lovely, clean, well maintained and had everything you need. Will definitely stay there again

Susan
28th July 2023

Wonderful hosts who were very welcoming and friendly and such a lovely piece of heaven. The Granary was small, but clean, well stocked and comfortable. The only problem were the ceiling beams which were low so could be a problem if you are tall. Ideal area for our week away. Would highly recommend this property.

Masie & family
28th July 2023

Absolutely beautiful place to stay! Very peaceful and the views are lovely. Not far from the local villages, Would definitely stay again x

Ali and family
23rd July 2023

What an amazing place! So good that we have already decided to rebook for next year. Red Squirrel Holiday Home is in a beautiful setting and is very well equipped and a perfect base to explore Anglesey. The shower is particularly good and the beds are very comfortable. We took our 6 year old daughter and there was plenty of space for the three or us. We were also lucky enough to see Hedgehogs and juvenile Hare in the garden.

Conrad

We had an amazing week at The Smithy cottage. Helen and Rick are really lovely and friendly owners and the property is a real credit to them. This is the first time we've been to Anglesey and the Island is amazing with lovely beaches and breathtaking views. We will return. Helen and Rick thank you very much.

Joe & family
10th July 2023

We spent a wonderful few days here in July and loved it. Helen was a wonderful host and made us feel right at home. Red Squirrel Holiday Home was spotlessly clean and had absolutely everything we could have needed. A huge amount to do nearby and this lovely setting was a great base to explore Anglesey and North Wales. The caravan is slightly elevated above some of the many trees in the garden, which our young son said felt like a treehouse. The garden is beautiful and the view from the bench at the bottom of the garden is just bliss. Will return. Thanks H&R!

Heidi
9th July 2023

Helen & Rick are a lovely couple. Very friendly and helpful. The caravans and cottages are in beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Loved watching the ducks and hearing the cows in the field.

Stephen
22nd June 2023

My wife and I had a lovely, comfortable, five night stay in Red Squirrel Holiday Home The Holiday Home is well equipped for self-catering and is comfortably furnished; the listing describes it well and accurately. Communicating with Helen was very straightforward and Helen was always helpful and responsive. The Holiday Home is sited in a lovely spot, surrounded by trees and hedges. Helen and Rick had a peanut bird-feeder on one of the nearby trees, and the variety of small birds going to and fro was wonderful to see.

Vivien
16th June 2023

Red Squirrel Holiday Home is surrounded by a lovely garden, it’s well equipped with even its own washing line! Though you have to drive or bike to get anywhere it’s in a great location for most things and a delight to get back to the serenity after a busy day touristing. Anglesey is such a great island with so much variety, I highly recommend a visit to Deri Fawr .

Elaine

We had a wonderful, peaceful week at The Byre. Everything was perfect. Cottage was cosy and warm and had everything the two of us needed for a much needed break.

Lisa & family
10th February 2023

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Smithy, the cottage is lovely, spotlessly clean and gave us everything we needed.

I picked this property for its eco credentials and beautiful gardens. When I arrived it was more beautiful than anticipated. I was delighted to meet the warm and friendly hosts on three or four occasions. They made sure I had all I needed and were very gracious about me charging my electric car with their accessible car charger. I took their advice to visit local scenic spots and had one of my best holidays for viewing wildlife and historic monuments. I would love to return one day.

Elaine

Janice
23rd September 2022

Deri Fawr Cottages are situated in an idyllic spot in the Countryside. It’s a peaceful haven in lovely natural grounds frequented by a wide variety of wild birds, squirrels, bunnies, hedgehogs, ducks etc. I have just spent a week in the lovely Granary with its sloping ceilings and beautiful beams. Nicely decorated, very clean and so well equipped. There are skylights in the roof, and lying-in bed, it’s amazing to gaze at the night sky and myriad of stars. No light pollution. Great Wi-Fi and TV signals for such a quiet, peaceful spot. Yet so well placed you are only 30 mins away from the furthest point on the island. Helen And Rick were so welcoming and always around if needed, or just for a friendly chat, but also unobtrusive. For me it was a superb spot and it comes highly recommended. My holiday was my first solo trip for some time and I was made most welcome, very comfortable and felt really safe. I will most definitely return.

Emma-Louise
23rd September 2022

The Stables: Exceptional A really cute cottage it felt like home away from home. Helen and Rick were really helpful and went out of their way to make the holiday feel really special. The little touches to the cottage from the food hamper to the spare blankets made us feel like we were staying with family. The surrounding views were absolutely stunning too. We even got to meet the little ducks that call Deri Fawr home. we will definitely be visiting again x

Lauren
23rd September 2022

We loved our stay in caravan 2, the electric blankets completely made our stay!!! A game changer for sure. The caravan is in a quiet little area with lots of birds and squirrels around and is in the perfect location to explore the island. Everything was lovely and clean when we arrived and the caravan was very well equipped and lovely and cosy. I’m sure we will be back next year! Thanks for everything! X

"We have just returned from a lovely clean, comfortable and well-equipped cottage." Helen and Rick were excellent hosts. We enjoyed our stay in The Smithy, which was set in beautiful grounds, unfortunately we did not see a red squirrel, but we did see plenty of birds.

David

Haylea
1st September 2022

We’ve had such a wonderful time at the absolutely beautiful and peaceful gem that is Deri Fawr. Helen and Rick are wonderful hosts, and very kind and thoughtful. We loved Caravan 2 which was spotlessly clean and comfy; the quaint summer house, and the hammocks to relax on! The whole place has a really nice feel and good vibes, and coming away we feel rejuvenated! Thank you Helen and Rick. We’ll definitely book again soon!

Rebecca & family
28th August 2022

A wonderful caravan with all the bits and bobs you need, plenty of space and a well-equipped kitchen. Caravan 1 is in a beautiful tranquil setting with lovely views, and although you are close to other guests it still feels very private. My boys loved exploring the grounds, watching the ducks, lying in the hammocks, visiting the summer house and searching for bunnies at dusk! it was all very idyllic. We spotted the red squirrels several times too! Helen and Rick are great hosts and lovely people, they gave us tomatoes from their garden and we had some good chats about beach recommendations. We've visited Anglesey before but never this area, we found it easy to get to and easy to get around from! We would happily book again.

Jenny
27th August 2022

"The Stables is an enchanting, clean, cosy cottage ideal for 2 or 4 people and the surroundings in which it is set are delightful." An added bonus is the wildlife to be seen right outside the front door: red squirrels, many varieties of wild birds and even ducks who arrive at the front door of the cottage looking for some tasty snacks in the form of wild bird seed - not bread! The owners do everything to make sure guests are comfortable and nothing is too much trouble. This is an ideal location for a quiet, peaceful holiday.

Jane
26th August 2022

Deri Fawr is a little gem, caravan 2 was perfectly situated to watch the wildlife including red squirrels. Great base to explore the beautiful island of Anglesey. Communication with our hosts was spot on, check in easy and straightforward. The caravan was spotlessly clean and comfy.

Steven & family
26th August 2022

Come home fully recharged after a wonderful week. Meeting Rick and Helen the owners , felt like visiting old friends as they made us feel so welcome. The Granary was fantastic in every way and we would not hesitate to return, would highly recommend. Only negative is, that after eating their home grown tomatoes, I can’t bring myself to buy them from the supermarket anymore!!!! Simply delicious. Huge thanks again

Craig & family
19th August 2022

What a great stay at Caravan number 2 with my family. I am reluctant to praise it too much for fear we will never get another booking. It’s a gem of a place. The caravan is in beautiful surroundings with a very attentive host in Helen who was kind enough to replenish the bird feeder so we could continue to spot Steven the red squirrel which me and my kids loved. Great base for exploring Anglesey and would visit again.

Susan
19th August 2022

"Lovely little cottage, snug and cosy, with everything needed to feel completely at home." Absolutely fantastic grounds to explore and enjoy, which we did each day. Reading each morning in the delightful summer house, after feeding the ducks, was next best to heaven. Thank you Helen and Rick, for providing such excellent facilities for a much needed peaceful holiday.

Lucia

We have had a lovely break. Caravan 1 was spotless with everything we needed. Helen was so warm and caring. Really made us feel not just a guest but a friend! Thanks for the crabbing gear. Will definitely be coming back, probably as a family group. So tranquil and easy to get to many places of interest and beaches.

This was our second stay at caravan 2 at Deri Fawr. Helen and Rick are wonderful hosts and Deri Fawr is in the most beautiful spot. We loved seeing the birds and rabbits from the caravan and our daughter even spotted a red squirrel! The caravan is spotless, spacious and well equipped. It is in a brilliant location for so many beaches, walks and days out. We hope to return again soon!

"We had a lovely holiday at the Granary." It had everything we needed to give us a good holiday on Anglesey. One of my main reasons for choosing it was the provision of electric charging for my car. This worked very well. The cottage was clean and comfortable and the owners Helen and Rick were very friendly and helpful. In a lovely location for a quiet holiday, with Snowdon only a short drive away.

Stayed for one week and the accommodation was delightful. Started with a lovely welcome pack and immaculately clean caravan so it was off to a good start! Really enjoyed our stay and will return.

Caravan 2 is well equipped and comfortable. The grounds are beautiful - we saw hedgehogs, rabbits and a red squirrel during our stay. Thanks Helen and Rick!

"Lovely well-equipped cottage. The owners Helen and Rick could not be more welcoming or helpful." Set in its own grounds which you are free to wander around red squirrels just outside kitchen window. We have stayed in many cottages over the years and The Smithy is definitely one of the best. Highly recommend.

"Helen and Rick are friendly and welcoming hosts." They kindly provided an excellent welcome pack upon arrival and offered helpful hints and tips on the local wildlife, walking and beaches. We really enjoyed our stay at The Stables and hope to stay there again in future.

Again we had a great week at Deri Fawr staying in Caravan 1. Rick and Helen made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble for them and they were always on hand if we needed anything. We had good weather all week. We can always find somewhere new to see on this beautiful island. We loved sitting watching the wild life and the family of red squirrels. The grounds looking better and better each time we come to stay as you are slowly cutting the trees down so as to open back up those stunning views of the surrounding countryside, keep up the good work. We loved the new extension to your house. It really goes so well. We can't wait to see it when you have finished the patio. Deri Fawr is a real little gem tucked away in a beautiful quiet part of the island. We highly recommend Deri Fawr if you are looking for a lovely quiet place to stay with all the facilities you need for your stay, stunning views, wildlife and lovely hosts, then Deri Fawr is the place for you. Five stars. We will be back again soon.

Idyllic location in a lovely tree filled garden surrounded by fields. Caravan 2 gave us a “birds eye” view of all visitors to the bird feeder including a red squirrel. We loved fishing for mackerel and swimming off the local beaches just 10-15 mins away. We needed a respite break and this location was perfect. Hope to return soon.

Claire

The location of The Stables was sooooo peaceful and beautiful very quiet and rural. The perfect place to unwind for a few days. Guests can relax in the summerhouse and the grounds were leafy and relaxing. Helen and Rick were lovely hosts and The Stable was very comfortable and cosy with a well-equipped kitchen and very comfy beds. Seeing wild rabbits and red squirrels outside the kitchen window was amazing.

The Stables: Perffaith! Hyfryd! Perfect! Beautiful! Helen and Rick have invested in making this a perfect, quiet, homely retreat and base for touring around Ynys Mon and North Wales. The cottages are perfect for families. Giving full marks for this place is fully deserved!! We spend hours wondering what could be improved or what might be wrong...sorry, couldn't think of anything. This is nothing we'd change about this place!

Mehmet
16th June 2022

The accommodation has exceeded our expectations. Our hosts were very welcoming and warm. We had everything we needed for washing and cooking. The location was very convenient for us to travel to Moelfre, Benllech and Bull Bay in Amlwch during our stays in Anglesey. The views from Caravan 1 are stunning. The caravan itself is very spacious and frankly more comfortable than our family-owned small chalet in Anglesey!

Chris & family
3rd June 2022

A fantastic hidden gem! Don't let the nostalgic interior of Caravan 2 put you off, it is immaculate and you can tell it is lovingly looked after by Helen and Rick. From the moment we arrived we felt peaceful (even with a 3yr old and 6yr old). The setting is idyllic, surrounded by lovely gardens and trees with a lovely summer house that we would have spent more time at had the weather been better! Helen was there to greet us once we'd unloaded the car and made us feel very welcome and that nothing was too much trouble if we needed her. We only wish we could have stayed longer....but we will definitely be back.

Clean comfortable caravan located on a quiet, peaceful private site with great views & lovely garden & only a short drive to several beautiful sandy Anglesey beaches. Everything needed was provided, we very much enjoyed our stay at Deri Fawr & would recommend it as a base for exploring the Island.

Michael & family

"We would thoroughly recommend The Smithy, this cosy comfortable cottage which is situated in beautiful grounds with far reaching countryside views." Rick and Helen are warm and friendly hosts and nothing seemed too much trouble for them, from starting up a freezer for us to showing us around their gardens, bringing us deckchairs, and even some home-grown rhubarb! We loved the herbs growing outside each cottage and the summer house. It was a most convenient base for completing our walk around Anglesey.

A great spot, beautiful gardens and incredibly welcoming hosts! Ample space in Caravan 1 with all the bits and pieces you need. Just a warning that the van doesn’t have central heating but we found the fire and toasty electric blankets were more than sufficient even in April. We will definitely be back!

Hazel
25th February 2022

Just spent a lovely weekend in The Smithy. It was the perfect place for a relaxing weekend but with lots to do nearby. Surrounded by countryside with lots of birdlife, it’s a great place for nature lovers and we were also lucky enough to see the red squirrel, which was a real treat. Helen and Rick are the perfect hosts, always on hand if you need anything. We visited Parys Mountain which was just amazing, well worth a visit and ideal for photographers. Other places close by that we enjoyed visiting are Amlwch and Moelfre. We would definitely recommend staying at Deri Fawr and we will be back.

"A fabulous cottage in a fabulous setting." Everything that we hoped for. A lot of work must go in to keeping the cottages so inviting and homely. The owners Helen and Rick were very friendly and always on hand to help with anything. Deri Fawr had a really welcoming atmosphere. Delighted to finally see a red squirrel along with all the other wildlife, including a woodpecker. Would definitely go back if we visit Anglesey again.

Very restful stay in a well-appointed caravan (two) which had everything we needed. Located in a quiet garden in a beautiful location- our neighbours were goldfinches and a red squirrel! Helen and Rick are very welcoming and friendly hosts. Highly recommended for an enjoyable break.

"Our fantastic hosts, Helen and Rick, made us feel really welcome, from the day of our booking to the end of our holiday." The Granary was well kitted out, clean and comfortable. The cottage is in a quiet, beautiful location, with lovely views over the Welsh countryside. It even has its own resident ducks and red squirrels!

Susan

This is a great place to stay if you like peace and quiet. It’s handy for the coast road too. The caravan (one) is roomy and very well equipped with everything you need. The grounds are beautiful, it was great to sit in the caravan and watch the birds and a red squirrel in the little woodland next to it. Our hosts were so friendly and gave us a very warm welcome. Check in was very easy too. I would highly recommend a stay.

Marcia

Hedgehogs, ducks & cows! Cosy accommodation situated in a peaceful location perfect for exploring all parts of Anglesey very easily. Hosts were very welcoming and extremely helpful with lots of ideas and suggestions on places to visit. The Smithy cottage was very comfortable for four of us although my husband had to mind his head in the bathroom due to the low ceiling! The cottage has all the necessary facilities and equipment, and was very well presented. The shared drying room was brilliant for getting wet beach clothes & shoes dry quickly. Kids loved the wildlife on site particularly the hedgehog and ducks. Highly recommended.

The Byre at Deri fawr Our first 'cottage holiday' after many years of caravanning. We were totally blown away by the reception from hosts Helen & Rick, captivated by the initial impression of Deri Fawr and then wowed by the set up and preparation of The Byre itself. The grounds are very large containing many flowers, shrubs, birds, ducks and visiting wild life. When eventually we ventured out pubs, shops, beaches are within 15 minutes with the farthest corners of Anglesey 30-40 minutes. Wonderful place - Highly recommended

"The Granary was a real home from home." We had a very relaxing and comfortable stay. The Granary had everything we could possibly need. Helen and Rick were both warm, welcoming, friendly and helpful people. The area is beautiful and lots to do and see.

Richard & family

A real find in a very peaceful location We managed to book Smithy Cottage, Stables Cottage and both (static) caravans for a weeks family holiday with all the grandchildren! Lovely quiet and peaceful location but not too far to drive to the beaches and amenities, so very well located. Very hospitable hosts. We're not keen on static caravans as a rule but these did the job and all the accommodation was reasonably priced and in decent, clean condition. Great drying room for wet beach gear. Plenty of outside space/grass for the little kids to run around in with no worries about traffic. We'll be back!

Christine & family
30th July 2021

A relaxing, peaceful holiday This is the third time we have stayed in one of the caravans at Deri Fawr. The location is quiet with beaches and shops just a short car journey away. The caravans each have outdoor space which is perfect after a day at the beach, there is plenty of room to dry wetsuits and beach towels. The wildlife is amazing, we enjoyed watching the birds, rabbits, hedgehogs and the neighbouring cows. Helen and Rick are approachable and friendly and are attentive to the needs of their guests. The caravan was equipped with everything we needed. We will definitely visit again!

Katie & family
23rd July 2021

We absolutely loved our stay at Deri Fawr. Helen and Rick were perfect hosts and we were sad to leave! The communication was great throughout and they were only too happy to help when we had any questions about either our stay or what to do in the local area. The caravan (two) was really well maintained and equipped with all the comforts you need for a simple holiday. The grounds were beautiful and we loved looking out of our caravan and just seeing fields and trees, a very peaceful retreat! Anglesey itself is gorgeous and we made use of everything it had to offer! Deri Fawr is perfectly placed to visit any part of the island within half an hour. I’ve recommended it to friends and family already and we’d love to go back!

Jess & family
20th July 2021

My husband and I stayed at the caravan with our 2 young children. The caravan (two) is a lot more spacious than the photos show, especially the living room area. The caravan is in a stunning secluded spot looking out over the meadow and summer house. It felt wonderfully private. The children loved playing in the beautiful grounds. There are lots of gorgeous beaches a short drive away. We hope to return!

Helen and Rick thank you so much, our stay with you was amazing. Deri Fawr is a haven of peace we rested very well, wish it would be more than only a week. We are very happy that we met you, such nice and positive couples are not so often to seen, stay like this. We will recommend your place to everyone who likes peace and countryside.

"Wow what a fantastic find for a romantic, quiet, idyllic retreat." The Byre is a quaint, cosy cottage for two, offering a peaceful haven away from the hustle and bustle of busier resorts in Anglesey. Helen and Rick are fantastic hosts, really friendly and live on site. They are extremely helpful if you have any questions or problems. The Byre is very well furnished and perfectly equipped for any stay of the year. The new modern log burner is fantastic and would be most welcome during the cooler months of the year. This cottage offers a private outdoor space with outdoor seating and beautiful views, including smoothing sunsets at the end of the day. The site is enclosed and also offers, orchard, seating at a duck pond with very friendly ducks, a summerhouse to relax in and beautiful surroundings of trees and flowers, attracting many birds. So impressed with this cottage, can't wait to return

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Smithy, The Cottage is quaint, well equipped, clean and in the most beautiful location." It is a wonderful experience to wake up to woodpeckers on the tree outside, rabbits and bunnies outside the living room window and regular visits for the resident ducks. The cottage is well located to explore the whole of Anglesey. Would highly recommend this cottage. The owners Helen and Rick are always on hand and happy to help with anything or just to chat to. Thank you.

"The Byre was a little oasis of tranquillity on Anglesey." Set in stunning countryside. Interior was immaculate with high standard of cleanliness. Not too remote for easy access to road network. It just oozed relaxation and tranquillity. Hosts were perfect and extremely friendly. Booked was simplicity itself. Perfect holiday....so much so ...I've booked to go again later on in the autumn. Absolute perfection itself.

"I booked the "Smithy" for a surprise birthday for my other half." Beautiful accommodation slightly bigger than expected and very comfortable. The hosts Helen and Rick are really lovely and made sure that we had everything we needed and advised of places that we weren’t aware of and are very knowledgeable of the area. The upkeep of the grounds and gardens you can see the hard work they put in and guests are rewarded with amazing wildlife by the many bird feeders. We had rabbits running pass the cottage and 3 waddling ducks came to greet us each morning. Would be brilliant for families & perfectly central location to see all parts of Anglesey. A very peaceful and relaxing holiday.

Janet & family

Just returned home from a wonderful break at Deri Fawr. We stopped in caravan one which was great and provided everything we needed. The site is set in a beautiful location and is a perfect base to explore the island. We had daily visits from the baby rabbits and residential ducks! Helen and Rick are the perfect hosts! We hope to return very soon!

Peaceful Retreat We arrived at Deri Fawr for the first time and were greeted by Helen our host who turned out to be so lovely and hospitable. We were staying in The Granary apartment and were not disappointed. Everything was in the apartment for our self-catering week and it was spotlessly clean. The grounds and seating area was so nice and very peaceful….this is where we met Rick, nothing was too much trouble for these two. We didn’t want to come home & have booked to stay in Caravan One for September.

Angie
20th May 2021

"Very welcoming." We felt like guests in a country house - Helen and Rick are delightful hosts who are determined to make everyone's stay a special experience. Extensive, well-kept gardens, including an orchard, ponds, a vegetable-growing area and a summer house. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, including a view of Snowdonia and the sea at the top of the property driveway. A perfect place to unwind, where the predominant sound is that of the wind in the trees and continuous birdsong. Truly peaceful.

We have just returned from a lovely week at The Granary, on arrival we were met by the owners Helen and Rick, a lovely couple who made us very welcome and were never too busy to have a chat and suggest places of interest to visit. The first apartment is excellent, very clean and well equipped with everything you need for your stay. There is a lovely garden with two ponds to walk around and the use of a summerhouse with comfy seating and tables. The house is situated in a beautiful rural setting central to the island which makes it an ideal place to stay as there is so much to explore on the island. We enjoyed our stay very much and will be booking again for next year.

Absolutely stunning place to enjoy and relax! The Smithy cottage was very cosy and enough space for the 3 of us who stayed there for 5 nights. Lovely owners Helen and Rick who made us feel very welcome and not to forget their lovely ducks that were a joy to watch waddling around the land! Would highly recommend and we will definitely return very soon.

Helen is a brilliant host, and gave us a very warm welcome. The place is very quiet and secluded, ideal for a peaceful stay, but with easy access to the beautiful isle of Anglesey. Not far from Benllech beach and the shops and restaurants around it. I would recommend it to anyone.

As we drove down the drive into the courtyard we were met and warmly welcomed by our hosts Helen and Rick. They are two of the friendliest and obliging people you could wish to meet. Nothing we asked for was too much trouble. We had two fantastic weeks staying in the cottage called The Byre. It is a well-equipped, comfortable, warm, cosy cottage for two people. With its own private patio area to soak up the sun with a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine or two. The wildlife, rabbits, birds etc and not forgetting the four ducks waddling past the door is a delight to watch. The surrounding grounds, summer house, ponds etc are all there for visitors to savour. We really enjoyed our two weeks there feeling very much at home and didn’t hesitate to book the same two weeks for 2021. A very big thanks to Helen and a Rick for making the two weeks so unforgettable.

“Deri Fawr is a gorgeous, tranquil little haven that we wholeheartedly recommend.” Helen and Rick were exceptional hosts and they made sure our short break was one to remember. It's fair to say that the photos don't currently do this justice. It's a gorgeous spot. The grounds are meticulously kept. It's a tranquil and serene place, with a beautiful summer house and lovely grounds which are perfect for a wander after a day at the beach. It's easy to drive to any of Anglesey’s beautiful beaches, yet secluded enough for any family (with or without kids) to get away from the busyness of day to day life. The real stars of Deri Fawr - in addition to the hosts - are the 4 ducks that wander the gardens and have their own little duck house. Chasing them back to bed was our son's personal highlight! We're hoping to return soon.

Steven
24th July 2020

We are currently staying in "Deri Fawr". There are 4 cottages and 2 caravans in extensive and beautiful grounds. Our cottage, the Stables is delightful, fully equipped and warm and comfortable and newly refurbished by the new owners. Helen and Rick are welcoming, cheerful and always prepared to supply/help in any way. I fell in love with the place on sight, the wildlife is amazing and the gardens exquisite. We will most certainly be back. It is so peaceful here and close to many beautiful places to visit.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Byre.” It was the perfect place to stay for a very relaxing holiday in a beautiful location. Rick and Helen made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and nothing was too much trouble for them. The attention to detail is obvious in this warm, cosy, comfortable cottage and the super-king size bed is an absolute luxury. The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed for self- catering and everything was spotlessly clean. There’s even a private patio area where we were able to sit out in the evening having a quiet drink. We would definitely return and highly recommend it.

“A lovely cottage in a lovely setting with very friendly” Welcoming owners who went out of their way to ensure that we had a lovely break, even providing buckets and spades for our grandchildren to use on the beach on a cold, sunny day in February.
