Description from owner
Description
The property, formally a Welsh long house has been tastefully restored and converted into two beautiful holiday Cottages. Both Cottages enjoy all modern conveniences whilst remaining full of character. The Castaways has two bedrooms and sleeps 4. Each property has its own private garden with table, chairs and BBQ. The Beautiful sandy beaches, Riding Centre, Anglesey Sea Zoo, Foel farm, and many other fabulous attractions are just a short drive away.
The essence of Penrhyn Mawr is one of peace and tranquillity; a chance to get away from the madding crowd and relax in this quiet location. Therefore, it is better suited to adults, and families with older children, who appreciate a quiet environment.
Saturday to Saturday bookings. Late availability and out of season stays - minimum of 3 nights.

“A slice of Welsh tranquility”
The Castaways is a very special place to stay. Everyone in the Visitors Book, and ourselves included, mention the peace and tranquility. It is cosy when it is cold and yet light and airy when it is … More

Response from the owner Thank you so much for your very kind words. It was a pleasure to meet you both. We try to ensure that The Castaways is a real home from home with the perfect mix of old traditional with modern facilities. Kitchens are very important even on holiday ! We are indeed a very peaceful location but still only 20 minutes from Menai Bridge and Brittania Bridge . Having Newborough beach so close is also a bonus ! I do hope you return - a warm welcome awaits.

“Perfect get away from it all location for quiet relaxation”
Need a car for this location for food shopping or eating out. Don't forget to take bed linen - or your waterproofs!

Response from the owner Thank you so much for your review. Great to meet you ! Delighted you found good relaxation too - it's what we do ! It's is true that we are not near to large shops and indeed Anglesey does necessitate a car for most places. Our local farm shop offers great local produce. But I hope that the peace and quiet makes up for it . It was indeed a shame about the rainy weather last week as the garden is usually a great place to chill and have a BBQ and listen to our birdsong. Bedlinen is available on request , especially for our overseas visitors and I will make this clear in our information . We try to keep the costs down for everyone which hopefully, keeps the cottage at a very competitive price .

“Home From Home”
Stayed here on 4 occasions in the past and booked next years stay on the day we arrived this year. Always receive a warm welcome, nothing is too much trouble and well behaved dogs are welcome! Secluded, clean, well appointed cottage - everything you need for a happy, comfortable stay and if you do not feel like cooking excellent food available at the Marram Grass only 5 minutes drive away. All local attractions are only a short drive away e.g. Newborough Beach, Plas Newydd plus plenty of leaflets in the cottage to plan your days out. Should you need anything then Clare is always there with a smile. Our favourite place to stay in Anglesey regardless of the weather.
