About this property

Beautiful, Modern Cottage, A Stone's Throw Away From The Water's Edge

Milverton is a fabulous cottage, newly extended and completely renovated to an exceptional standard in 2012.During 2022/23 we have given the cottage a completely new makeover, redecorated throughout, some new kitchen units and new Neff appliances, showers revamped, new bedroom blinds, new sofa and new Smart tv, new garden gate etc and so it’s looking even better than ever! The setting of the cottage is second to none, wonderfully positioned, just a stone's throw away from the Menai Straits. The cottage is located in a quiet, peaceful area, with restaurants, pubs, picturesque footpaths and cycle paths and a range of water sports nearby.

From Jan 2014 we have decided to do a 3 month trial of guests being allowed to bring one small well behaved dog with them in Jan, Feb and March and depending on how it goes will then decide if we make it a permanent feature!

Milverton is a comfortable, fully equipped, relaxing cottage with fantastic views. The four bedroom accommodation includes 2 double bedrooms, both with stunning views of the Straits, two single bedrooms. It also contains 2 bathrooms, with 2 showers and 1 bath, a kitchen, living room and dining room.

The living room has large French doors opening out into the garden, allowing you to enjoy the magnificent views from both inside and out. There is also gas coal effect fire to keep you cosy in the evenings.

The light and sunny cottage faces South East and is set in its own garden. The garden has its own glass wall to ensure optimum views and includes an eating area, allowing you to have a meal or enjoy a few drinks in front of the fantastic view.

- Off street parking, for Milverton guests, less than 2 minutes walk away.
- Fully equipped cottage
- Bed linen and towels provided
- WiFi provided
- 32' smart TV with internet
- DVD player
- Outside area
Please note, there are stairs down to the cottage.

Fabulous holiday cottage overlooking Menai Strait

Milverton Cottage didn’t disappoint. Clean, comfortable and well appointed. Our hospitable host, Anne, sent us a detailed welcome pack about the cottage and places to visit. She also checked in on us to ensure we were settled in. We had a fabulous stay in Anglesey and visits to Snowdonia capped with ever changing views of Menai Straits from the cottage. We’ll be back!

Amazing Anglesey

This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Anne is an amazing host and communication was a breeze. What a beautiful cottage Milverton is and Northern Wales is second to none. I highly recommend a trip to Anglesey and a stay at Milverton. It was a joy to come back there after a day of exploring.

Fabulous stay at Milverton

House, host & location all absolutely amazing. Spent blissful hours just watching what was going on on the strait. Excellent location, quiet but only a few minutes walk into town centre with all essentials nearby, good pubs & restaurants and Waitrose a stones throw away once you work out the shortcut 😊 A great base for exploring the island and handy for Bangor station. Totally recommend! We look forward to coming back.

great house great holiday!

Firstly Anne is the best host ever, all information is accuate and anything you think you need to know and even what you dont need to know she sends by email. very organised and attentive host! The house is perfect for 6 No parking except round the corner, with your own spot that is great, just DO NOT try driving down past the house! Its a dead end and extremely narrow to reverse back. go up the one way street where it shows. made the mistake only once when we arrived. View just incredible and location perfect for North Wales! Thank you Anne

Smart, modern but still homely. The house fitted beautifully into the eclectic mix that is Menai Bridge. Watching the everchanging tide from the balcony or lounge is just mesmerising. My husband said " its the best view we've ever had on any holiday. Beds comfortable, house warm, full of equipment. Anne and Gerald so helpful with instructions and answered questions. You can have peace here and nature or find shops and restaurants, Perfect stay and memories made for us all. Thank you.

Menai meet up

We were meeting up with London friends who have a place in Bangor..They had other friends stay at Milverton last year...loved it.. So...we were the beneficiaries of their experience and recommendation...We found the cottage clean and comfortable ... The water side view is nothing short of spectacular and the cottage is within walking distance of the village and market...The lodging was great for my wife and I. I think it would feel pretty tight for six or even four adults.

Comfortable base for exploring North Wales

The best thing about Milverton is the ever changing view of the Menai Bridge which can be seen from all rooms except the two single bedrooms. The kitchen is modern and very well equipped with appliances, crockery and utensils. The property has a very cosy feel and is a perfect place to relax after a day of adventure or hiking, or if the weather is inclement. Or just sitting outside enjoying the view with your morning coffee. We are a family of four with children aged 10 and 13 and the property was perfect for us. There is a Waitrose supermarket a convenient 5 mins walk away and a great restaurant, Dylan’s, also a short walk. The street outside is very narrow but you can park there for unloading or longer if there is space, else it’s 2 mins walk to the reserved spaces. Due to the parking and steps down to the property we wouldn’t recommend for a family with pushchairs or wheelchair users but it was no problem for us. We had a really great week in Wales at Milverton and would definitely stay again.

Perfect getaway

This is a delightful property with incredible views of the bridge and straits, within walking distance of some nice restaurants and pubs. The property was exactly as described, spotless and felt really homely. The communication with Anne was first class and everything was described in great detail. We even had the opportunity to check in early, which was great as we did arrive a little earlier than expected.
