About this property
Y Goedwig is a contemporary stylish maisonette set over two floors in Newborough (Niwbwrch), Anglesey. Offering family-friendly accommodation by the sea, this stylish maisonette welcomes four guests to explore a beautiful region of Wales, plus one well-behaved dog. Be welcomed by a fully equipped kitchen/diner with all high-quality home comforts to cook with ease, whilst the dishwasher and washing machine do all the cleaning. A large dining table has space for everyone to enjoy dinner together, and why not follow with a cold beverage out in the courtyard with seating? However, back inside the sitting room has a sumptuous corner sofa enticing you to curl up in front of the Smart TV; lay down a blanket for your dog to rest their paws, too! Completing the ground floor is a twin room, painted with lovely forest colours, whilst upstairs the master double is ideal for couples. In the mornings, hang your towel on the heated rail in the characterful bathroom with a bespoke basin, whilst you relax in the bath or shower over. Well-located for adventures with your loved ones, the village of Newborough has plenty to offer, from The White Lion Pub to The Codmother fish and chips takeaway, and a convenience store providing the essentials. Be sure to visit the close by attractions of the Anglesey Transport Museum & Café, the National Trust's Plas Newydd House and Gardens, and Pili Palas Nature World. If you're looking for a day by the sea, Traeth Llanddwyn and Tywyn Niwbwrch nature reserve is a must see; stroll along the golden sands with your dog, lose yourself in the rich woodland, and trek to landmarks such as Goleudy Tŵr Mawr! For more local history and heritage, journey to Llangefni for Oriel Môn gallery and museum, or perhaps you'd prefer wandering through nature at The Dingle (Nant-y-Pandy) Nature Reserve. Watersports, Clwb Golff Ynys Môn Golf Club, and delicious seafood at the Oyster Catcher restaurant are all available at Rhosneigr, whilst Trearddur Bay, the bustling Holyhead, and Breakwater Country Park (Parc Gwledig Morglawdd Caergybi) offer plenty of walks, boat rips, fishing, and attractions. A drive across the Menai Bridge brings you to the historic town of Caernarfon, the vibrant city of Bangor, and the breath-taking Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park; why not challenge yourself to an unforgettable hike to Yr Wyddfa’s (Snowdon) peak? Y Goedwig has so much to offer on your next family-friendly holiday in Anglesey.
Newborough (Niwbwrch) is a small village in Anglesey's south west. Llanddwyn Bay is nearby, a beautiful beach ideal for swimming, canoeing, beachcombing, birdwatching, or just relaxing! The 1500 acre sand dune system of Newborough Warren is a National Nature Reserve and home to skylarks, meadow pipits, oyster catchers, toads and lizards. Anglesey Sea Zoo, Foel Farm, and Anglesey Sea Salt are all within 3 miles of the village centre. The Anglesey racing track in nearby Aberffraw will make for an exciting day.

Good location. Clean throughout. The only issue was the towels were a little worn out. Only one tea towel was provided. Minor really. Wouldnât hesitate to book again! Thanks.

Had brilliant weather so enjoyed exploring the island and gorgeous beaches. Even saw 2 red squirrels and a Sparrowhawk in the forest. Cottage was spacious and loved the decor. Such a comfy bed and sofa. Ate at the pub and had fish and chips from across the road. Shop well stocked. Perfect location for getting around. Loved the welcome treats. Thank you. Couldn't find the key to open the window. Hope we can return again. Enjoyed tea in a China cup after a day's exploration and watching the bats in the evening. Parked in the free car park as got quite busy on the road.

The cottage provided the perfect base to explore Anglesey. The beds were very comfortable and the decor was modern and cosy. The kitchen was spacious and very well equipped. A great location close to a very beautiful beach and the local pub was friendly and did great food. We did intend to leave a note in the guest book but unfortunately couldn't find a pen and were just about to leave. The only thing I think is missing is a washing line but otherwise the cottage had everything we needed. Thankyou for providing such a lovely place to stay!
