The cabins are located on Y Glyn Estate, at the following address:
- Y Glyn, Penmynydd Road, Llangefni, LL77 7SG
As you drive along Penmynydd Road, look out for the entrance to Y Glyn. There is a sign written Y GLYN at the driveway, and you’ll see a cottage set close to the road. Directly opposite the entrance, on the other side of the road, you’ll notice a polytunnel – this is a good landmark that you’re in the right place.
Turn into the driveway and continue until you reach the car park.

Where are the properties located within the Y Glyn Estate?
All properties are set within the Y Glyn Estate and are accessed on foot from the main car park:
- The Writer’s Cottage is located on the same level as the car park, making it the most easily accessible property on arrival.
- The Bothy is situated at the top of a hill, to the left as you walk up from the car park.
- The Mirrored Cabins are located beyond the Bothy. From the top of the hill, continue along the path past the Bothy to reach the cabin area.
Please note that both the Bothy and the mirrored cabins require walking up a incline hill — a little effort on arrival, but rewarded with peace, privacy and elevated views.
Are children or additional guests permitted in the Bothy and the mirrored cabins? The mirrored cabins are designed exclusively for two adults and do not accommodate children or babies.
The Bothy is also set up for two guests; however, we can provide a travel cot for one child up to 2 years old upon request. Please note that the Bothy does not accommodate additional adult guests.
Are your properties pet-friendly?
Yes — all of our properties are pet-friendly, and we’re happy to welcome one well-behaved dog per stay. A £35 pet fee applies to cover additional cleaning and care. To help us protect these thoughtfully designed spaces and the wider estate, we kindly ask that:
- Dogs are kept on a lead at all times when outside on the premises
- Dogs are not left unattended in the property
- Dogs are kept off beds and soft furnishings
- Owners clean up after their dog at all times
- Any damage or excessive cleaning required will be charged accordingly
Thank you for helping us maintain a calm, comfortable environment for all guests — two- and four-legged alike

Where do I find the shared sauna?
The shared sauna is located at the entrance to the mirrored cabin area. It is the first mirrored building on the right as you enter the cabin area. All cabins are located beyond the sauna, further along the path. Please note the walk includes a steep hill — but it’s worth it.
- From The Writer’s Cottage: Walk up the hill, pass The Bothy, and continue along the path behind it into the cabin area. As you enter the cabin area, the sauna will be the first mirrored building on your right.
- From The Bothy: The Bothy is already at the top of the hill. Simply follow the path behind the Bothy into the cabin area. The sauna will be the first mirrored building on your right as you enter.
- From the Mirrored Cabins: The sauna is located at the start of the cabin area. From your cabin, walk back towards the entrance of the cabin area — the sauna will be the last mirrored building you reach, on your left.
