About this property
Galwad Y Mor is a charming detached cabin on the outskirts of Newborough on Anglesey. It is the nearest property to Newborough Forest and Llanddwyn Beach, both of which are noted for their beautiful scenery and wildlife. Galwad Y Mor is an excellent choice for a party or family of six, for its location and home comforts. The cabin is located in a fairly rural area, with spectacular views of Snowdonia, and features outside furniture and a wood-burning stove, making it ideal for an evening meal with a view. Inside, you'll find a contemporary, open-concept living space with lots of sumptuous seating, ideal for sharing stories over a glass of wine, as well as a fully-equipped kitchen, ideal for creating delicious meals for six people to share at the dining table. Continue on to the bathroom, where you can soak in the tub or refresh yourself in the overhead shower. When it's time to sleep, there are three wonderfully appointed bedrooms to select from: a king-size with an en-suite shower room, and two twin bedrooms. There is a local convenience store in the village, superb fish and chips at The Codmother, the Anglesey Transport Museum and Café, and the Llyn Parc Mawr Community Woodland, where you may observe local animals. Newborough Forest, managed by the Forestry Commission, is a red squirrel sanctuary with a myriad of species to discover; ideal for cycling, walking, or running, the forest also serves as a gateway to the shore and the Anglesey coastal path. Traeth Llanddwyn, on the edge of Newborough Forest, is a lovely site to spend the day at the beach while admiring Snowdonia's breathtaking surroundings. Anglesey Sea Zoo and Bodowyr Burial Chamber are two local attractions on the fringes of the village. Following that is Llanfairpwllgwyngyll, which has many sights to view, including the famed Plas Newydd House and Gardens, the National Trust Caeau Glan-y-mor, the breathtaking landscape along the Pont Britannia Lions & Coastal Path, and the fun and educational Pili Palas Nature World. Visit Bangor, which is home to the National Trust's Penrhyn Castle & Garden, a Roman Camp, and the Spinnies Aberogwen North Wales Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve. At Galwad Y Mor, you can get away from it all.
On the southwest part of the Isle of Anglesey, a little village called Niwbwrch was established in the 13th century. The community is today most known for having one of the biggest sand dune systems in the British Isles as well as Niwbwrch Forest, which has 2000 acres of land and is recognised as one of the most significant red squirrel conservation sites in the UK. There are additional ruins of a pre-Edwardian communal court at Llys Rhosyr, which likewise has stunning views over mainland Wales and the Snowdonia National Park. After touring the neighbourhood, be sure to refuel at The White Lion, a canine-friendly restaurant providing tasty pub fare and ales. The historical sites of Eglwys Santes Dwynwen and Goleudy Twr Bach are also close by, as are the golden sands of Treath Llanddwyn beach. Additionally, Niwbwrch is close to Snowdonia National Park, which offers a variety of treks and trails, and Bangor.

It's such a nice relaxing space with ever-changing views out towards Snowdonia. It's a pleasant 20 minute walk to the beach, or you can hike around the forest, both of which are unspoilt even though there's a good sized car park with facilities down at the other end of the beach. Bethan our host was friendly and quick to respond when we had questions. I can see that the two cabins would make a great booking for two families and there is lots of outside space for younger children to play.

However there was no washing machine which made it very difficult with a family of 6. The kitchen facilities need updating, there was no family frying pan. It was not a home from home accommodation like we have experienced on previous holidays. I felt it was very expensive for what it was.

Walking through the forest to the beach, seeing rabbits each time, the horses, the birds, just lovely. At night we lit the fire outdoors, melted marshmallows and watched the stars. Very peaceful way to spend an evening. The lodge itself is really nice, well furnished and clean. Very nice of the owner to leave some arrival gifts too. Thank you. My only critique would be the frying pans all have a rounded base which donât work on an induction hob. Thankfully Iâd brought my own pan so we cooked using that. The hob also turns itself off regularly during cooking. Other than that everything was great and we would definitely consider coming back. Many thanks for a wonderful stay.
