Bod Hyfryd

About

 

Located on the coast of the beautiful of Isle of Anglesey, Bod Hyfryd (“Beautiful dwelling”) is a house with a fascinating history….a former Captains House, it was built for Captain Ishmael Williams in 1874; He was the master of a locally made 3 masted schooner called “The Gaelic”, which regularly sailed from Amlwch Port to South America and beyond.

Today it has been lovingly restored, but still retains a lot of the original features, including roof timbers reclaimed from old ships. You will find a warm welcome from your hosts Julie and Pete, and the promise of total relaxation and peace and quiet, due to our rural location. If you like waking up to nothing more than the sound of birdsong, or gazing at the stars whilst soaking in our eco-friendly wood-fired hot tub, whilst Owls fly overhead…then Bod Hyfryd is the place for you!

OUR ROOMS

At present, we have two double rooms, with exclusive use of our recently installed luxury shower room. Schooner is tastefully decorated in a nautical theme,whilst Rivendell has a relaxed luxurious ambience with embossed wallcovering, hotel style padded headboard and local artwork. Our beds have sumptuous feather and down mattress toppers, high thread count pure white cotton bedding and cosy feather and down duvets for a gloriously restful nights sleep.

We also provide fluffy towelling robes, for tip-toeing to and from our luxury guest bathroom or should you decide to take advantage of our lovely Scandinavian wood fired hot-tub during your stay (most people do!)

Out and About

Llaneilian is situated less than half an hours drive from Brittania Bridge over the Menai Strait onto the island. We are very close to excellent beaches, and Llaneilian Cove is a closely guarded secret place, not known to many visitors to the island.  
Bod Hyfryd is five minutes walk from the coastal path and some truly breath-taking views from the headland. Porpoise and Dolphin sightings are commonplace around these parts, so keep your camera handy! There is also a wealth of wildlife in the area, including rabbits, hares, hedgehogs, red squirrels, and a huge variety of bird species.

If all you want is a short walk to a quaint traditional local pub, the Adelphi Vaults in Amlwch Port is highly recommended, and only 15 minutes walk away.
