How to find the right cottage for your North Wales holiday 

Abundant in beautiful beaches and unmatched culture, North Wales is teeming with holiday cottages just waiting to welcome you. From quaint stone cottages in chocolate-box villages to contemporary hideaways with hot tubs, there’s a perfect property for any kind of break. As experts in this area, we know that the choice can be overwhelming – where do you start?! 

Below, we’ve compiled a list of four questions to ask yourself when choosing the right style of holiday cottage for your North Wales trip. 

  1. Which part of North Wales are you visiting?

Narrow down your search for holiday cottages in North Wales by first deciding what area you want to visit. Some places will be more popular than others based on proximity to attractions, accommodation availability, and the seasonality of the area itself. Popular holiday destinations in North Wales include Anglesey, Snowdonia, the Llyn Peninsula and the coastal resorts of Llandudno and Conwy. 

Once you know which area you’re travelling to, you can begin the hunt for the perfect North Wales holiday cottage.  

  1. Who are you travelling with? 

The number of guests you’re visiting with, along with their ages and interests will also help you find the right style of cottage for your North Wales holiday. Narrow your holiday cottage search down further by considering things like the number of bedrooms, accessibility, facilities for children and parking spaces that you’ll need. 

With our handy holiday cottage search feature, you can tailor search results by things like ‘Beach View,’ ‘Near the Sea’ and ‘Coffee Maker,’ allowing you to skip right to the perfect properties for you and whoever you’re travelling with. 

Find pet-friendly holiday cottages in North Wales

We’re big believers that dogs shouldn’t miss out on all the fun. We have a range of pet-friendly holiday cottages in North Wales that will ensure you can enjoy blustery beach walks and scenic strolls to the pub with your four-legged friend in tow.  

  1. Will you have a car during your stay? 

Many people come to North Wales for the sense of rugged, rural abandon of the mountains and the coast. While this does mean that a lot of holiday cottages are in peaceful locations miles from hustle and bustle, there’s also a selection of village and town-centre properties where you can get around on foot. Ty Hydref is a perfect example, nestled in the back streets of Beaumaris – a stunning seaside town on the Isle of Anglesey.  

If you will be bringing your car for your stay, you’ll enjoy easy access to the entirety of North Wales, and so can choose a property that is completely rural should you wish. Not arriving by car but fancy having the convenience of one during your stay? Our concierge service can soon arrange one for you. 

  1. What type of holiday do you have in mind?

Last but certainly not least, you should consider what type of holiday you have in mind. Will it be picnics on the beach? Sundowners with a sea view? Is this the year you finally plan to climb Snowdon? Whatever your dream North Wales break looks like, our collection of holiday cottages will have the perfect place for you. Explore houses for large groups with hot tubs, family-friendly accommodation by the beach and everything inbetween.
