About this property
The Dog house, a country retreat.
The Dog and Duck House are a pair of beautiful, idyllic one bedroom country retreats, with all the comfort and cosiness you could wish for whilst on holiday on Anglesey. We also have a log cabin on site that can be found under a different listing called The Peacock Cabin.
Whatever the weather you will enjoy the comfort offered in either of these properties, and the fun and excitement of the surrounding area. The sitting rooms with their log burning stoves provide the setting for relaxing after a day out exploring the natural beauty of the Isle of Anglesey and the surrounding National Park.
We have sensitively renovated the properties over the last 4 years and have done much of the work ourselves taking into account every minute detail. Our hope is that we have created relaxing and calm spaces that enable you to fully unwind and enjoy time spent in this beautiful part of the world. The natural beauty of the area speaks for itself and if you enjoy the outdoors and love natural history this is definitely the place to visit - you will not be disappointed.
Both the Dog House and the Duck House have a sleeping capacity of 2 +2 people each, however we have an adjoining door (sensitively hidden between them and locked if each cottage is rented separately) that allows access to the adjoining cottage if required. This enables two families/couples or group of friends to enjoy both spaces together, or a larger family to be able to rent the complete space. The additional sleeping for 2 people in each of the cottages is a sofa bed so you would need to be organised and know each other well!

About the host
Hosted by Dr K D Bigham
I am a Clinical Psychologist and my partner, Ben is an Area Manager for a railway company. We have four children between us and three grandchildren, as well as lots of animals, including sheep, horses, dogs, hens, and peafowl (all of which you will see if you come and stay). As a result, we are very busy, and love meeting new people who come and stay at the cottages. We are always on hand to help in any way we can.
Why they chose this property
The Dog and Duck House are a beautifully renovated stable block. We have made them homely and comfortable with all you will need to enjoy a break away in the wonderful Welsh countryside. There is plenty of space outside to enjoy, wonderful walks from the door and beautiful beaches just a stone's throw away. Dogs are more than welcome, and they will find some biscuits awaiting them upon arrival.
