The Brackens commands breathtaking views over the Malltraeth Estuary. Huge windows in every room make the most of this coastal eco-friendly three-bedroom home. Featuring a rewilded garden that reaches down to the coastal footpath and estuary, perfect for nature lovers.



The magnificent open-plan living area features a double-height, cathedral-style ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer sublime views of the estuary and mountains. The stylish interior is minimally but comfortably furnished, creating a perfect space to curl up on the sofa with your morning coffee and enjoy the natural light and lovely views. Two steps up from the living area, you'll find a dining table for six guests and a fully equipped kitchen with an island/breakfast bar. Tucked away to the side of the living space is a TV snug with a sliding door, ideal for cosy movie nights or a quiet space for kids to play while adults enjoy dinner. A mezzanine area above the living space doubles as a study and a quiet reading nook with views to the front and back of the house.



The Brackens offers three ground-floor bedrooms, making it ideal for guests who have difficulty with stairs and for families with toddlers. The principal bedroom and the second bedroom both feature king-size beds, while the third bedroom has twin beds. There are two family bathrooms, one with a walk-in shower and the other with both a bath and a large walk-in shower. Both bathrooms are equipped with sinks, heated towel rails, and toilets. A separate guest toilet is located next to the utility area.



The rewilded garden at The Brackens is a haven for wildlife. A lawned area at the side of the property includes a den area amongst the trees at the back of the house provides a space for imaginative adventures. A patio wraps around the entire house, offering space for dining or relaxing while listening to the sounds of nature and the waves. A little path winds through the garden. Please note, parents will need to supervise children in the garden due to the unfenced pond.

There is ample enclosed parking for four cars.



The Neighborhood:

Malltraeth (said: MAHL-traith) is for nature lovers, walkers and cyclists, and another brilliant dog-friendly spot on the island. It's also a paradise for bird watchers, and its birdlife is popular enough to have landed on TV more than once.



The Cob, a mile-long path along the old estuary wall, is home to Shelducks and once painted obsessively by wildlife artist Charles Tunnicliffe. Head to Llyn Parc Mawr for red squirrels or cycle the trails through neighbouring Newborough Forest. Ten minutes further gets you to Newborough beach, one of the longest, sandiest, most beautiful beaches in the UK.



Refuel at the Red Squirrel Café, it does the best hot chocolate around, and return to the Joiners Arms in Malltraeth for real ales and a great atmosphere.



Getting Around:

This peaceful village is best accessed by car. On-site parking is provided. While there are occasional buses, we recommend a car to explore Newborough Forest and nearby beaches.



Other Things to Note:

An AHL Damage Waiver is included as standard with every booking. It’s there to protect the property and give you complete peace of mind, covering accidental damage up to £250, so that if something happens, it doesn’t cast a shadow over your stay.

Fabulous location. Great views and access to a beach to watch the birds. Would highly recommend. Loved the wildlife garden. As the temperature was over 30 degrees when we were there the glass fronted building was a bit hot although it was possible to open up the glass front onto the terrace and one fan was provided. Could do with air con but a bit much to ask of a property in this country, perhaps blinds on the window in the main seating area. Maybe an additional fan would be good too. Could do with a few more mugs, cups, bowls etc but that’s a minor point. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our stay despite the heat.

The Brackens has an idealic location on the estuary. Watching the birds in the morning & evening is so peaceful & relaxing. Its also a great location to explore the island. The property is amazing, very comfortable & lovely with its huge windows to make the most of the views. Absolutely fabulous place to stay

Lovely well equipped property in a very quiet and peaceful setting. Views are stunning and the house is very comfortable. Sainsbury’s delivery worked well and kitchen is very well equipped for keen cooks. Appliances are of excellent quality but the oven could do with a professional clean. Down sides: we found that the blinds in the bedrooms didn’t block out morning light so we woke early every day. Not a problem in March but could be during the summer. Visit to Anglesey salt was interesting and we enjoyed meals at The Oyster Catcher in Rhosneigr.

We did not find a "Luxury property set within a beautiful rewilded garden". It found an uncomfortable property set within a neglected garden ... where footpaths and ponds are no longer visible. You have to fight your way through waist high docs, ferns and nettles avoiding decaying dog poo other owners presumable failed to find due to the overgrown mess of the garden in order to locate the gate for the beach. Google maps show a rewilded garden with visible footpaths but this is not the case on the ground. One of our guests nearly fell in the pond as it was not visible. This property is not "comfortably furnished". Bedrooms are not "king-size rooms" but very small, no furniture other than a bed and side units. The "Principle" bedroom has a piece of wood as a shelf and basic school type chair for a dressing table, this is not "luxury", All the beds are so hard and seriously uncomfortable you'd be better off sleeping on the kitchen table. Having read previous reviews, the owner must surely be aware of the issues with the beds, The bedding is not luxury, duvet is too small for the covers and pillows are hard and not at all flexible. The property was not well cleaned and our teenage son found thick layers of dust on furniture where he was able to draw pictures in the dust. Outside there are several garden storage boxes but they don't have any garden cushions in just dead party balloons and old shoes. The garden table and chairs are old, 2 varnished 3 not all 5 dirty. The view is wonderful but it's not peaceful. We had three days of three sperate neighbours mowing their lawns which seemed to go on for hours. Two of the neighbours have barking dogs who bark at the sight of humans, boats birds and migrating rabbits from the neglect garden. So it was very noisy indeed. Anglesey Lettings were helpful allowing us to leave our boat at the property for some extra hours. But the "complimentary essentials to get your holiday started the right way" was an insult. The complimentary essentials were 2 black bin liners and 2 toilet rolls ! Bin liners and toilet rolls and basic essentials should be provided anyway. Milk and one or two items of local produce is what we usually receive from other Agents. I would advise anyone to look at Penrhyn Barn Dulas instead. Now that's luxury and comfort with a wonderful local hamper on arrival. We would not book again.
