What was it about Angorfa that made you decide it would be a great place for a holiday cottage?
Angorfa is a very special place. After viewing so many properties over the previous two years, we spotted Angorfa on the internet, a beautiful villa standing out on its own headland in the village of Cemaes Bay in Angelsey. We viewed Angorfa on a wet, cold, windy day, yet we knew it was The One. Compared with the few coastal properties we’d seen with limited sea views, Angorfa’s location was irresistible with sea views on three sides.
Was it difficult to find the perfect property that you knew would be appealing to holiday-makers?
It was very difficult finding any viable seaside properties that matched our criteria. Cemaes Bay is a rustic fishing village, attracting holidaymakers who prefer the unspoilt beauty that Angelsey has to offer.
Tell us about your property.
The first record of a cottage on this site is 1843, but it has undergone many renovations and extensions since then. Catering for up to 14 people, it’s ideal for large family gatherings. The house stands on its own headland, giving privacy yet has direct access down to the beach, and it’s just a short walk to local pubs and shops.
Do you have any plans for Angorfa Cottage in the future?
We do have some major improvements planned for 2016, that include breaking out walls to create an open-plan dining room with adjoining new bespoke kitchen. We are also going to extend the lounge out into a new extended conservatory with woodburners and oak flooring.
