Welcome!

back of Y stablY Stabl is a fully-furnished self-catering holiday cottage on two floors at the end of the three terraced Ty Lon Cottages.

The original stone building was used to house animals for the Ty Lon farm, and is believed to be several hundred years old. The Ty Lon Cottages were purpose converted in 1991, and we acquired the cottage in January 2007 to use for our own vacations, and to let out for the remainder of the year. Since then, we have made a number of improvements and renovations to the house.

The cottage had Visit Walfront of Y Stables 3-star grading since April 2008. The cottage is fully furnished and has two double bedrooms, one twin room and one single room- comfortably sleeping up to seven adults.  We have a portacot/ highchair/ booster seat available for young children.

The cottage has designated car parking spaces, plus the use of additional communal parking, and guests have use of the stone outhouse (old stable) in front of the cottage.

We have no phone or internet connection in the cottage. The closest internet cafe is located in Holyhead town centre. The White Eagle and Valley Hotel have wi-fi hotspots. There are public telephones nearby.

The cottage has allocated car parking spaces in front of, and behind, the stable/ outhouse. Guests of Y Stabl have exclusive use of the stone outhouse (stable) in front of the cottage to keep boats, sports equipment, bikes etc and to use as overnight drying space. The outhouse is secured by a padlocked full-height door.

shared gardenY Stabl has its own private patio area (with outdoor table/bench) to the rear of the cottage, and shares a large grass area and a small children's 'football pitch' with the two other cottages.

The site borders on a conservation reed bed Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to its importance as a sanctuary for some unusual migrating birds. Refer to our links page for some details on the 'reed bed SSSI'.
