We had a wonderful stay at Hen Dy. The cottage is beautiful, very well maintained and cleaned to the highest standard. We had a lovely welcome from the hosts who were always on hand for recommendations for day trips etc. It's located within easy distance of Anglesey and the mountains so excellent for outdoor activities. This is our second holiday at Hen Dy and we will be back again!
