What our customers say about their holidays

  Having had experience of other holiday cottages, I feel able to offer some constructive critique.

  Firstly I would say that we had a wonderful week in Trearddur - it’s a lovely location and conducive to restorative rest and relaxation. The location of the cottage is ideal. The cottage itself is comfortable and fine for 2 people. It lacks natural light so if the weather is not fine it can be claustrophobic in the living area. The amenities are fine, apart perhaps from a fridge which is difficult to access (particularly the lower shelves) in its current location and the lack of a washing machine/airer/washing line. Wi-fi is not really as advertised as you need to move away from the cottage to a nearby central area which is accessed by a key which hangs in the kitchen and was not noticed by us until the day before our departure. In this regard a welcome folder of detailed information might be better than sheets of A4 posted in the kitchen. The garden is nice although the garden furniture is pretty worn and not in keeping with the otherwise good quality provision in the cottage. We took our own chairs and were able to relax in the garden; this would not have been as enjoyable had we had to use what is in place. Finally the welcome pack, including the bottle of Prosecco was a nice touch and was appreciated.

  The house was perfect for a family of 4.

  The only thing we were unaware of was that the garden was not fully enclosed. Luckily our dog is well behaved and didn't stroll off. There was nice touches such as towels and bathrobes for the hot tub and the bottle of Prosecco for New Years Eve. It was lovely to all relax in the lounge on the amazing sofa and also have meals around the table. The only downside was on New Years Eve when the area had a powercut at 5pm. This was unfortunare as we was planning a night in and had got a lot of nice food in for us. We waited for 2 hours and then was informed from the website that it could be another 3 hours before it was restored. We had no torch in the house apart from out mobiles, which would not last another 3 hours and it was getting cold. I had called the caretaker when it originally happened, but we had no other contact. At 8pm we left the house, after packing up by torchlight and returned home. We was unable to stay in the house any longer with no electric, heating or torches as our phones were loosing power. The only thing we were unable to complete before leaving was the hoovering of the hall. I hope that the house was to the owners satisfaction. We were sad that our trip had ended in such a way.

  Enjoyed a long weekend at The Stables.

  It's a 2 minute walk to a long sandy beach and there are various nice restaurants close by. Considering it is a pet friendly cottage there was no dog smell at all. The accommodation was good, the kitchen is well equipped but the living room could do with an upgrade, looks a bit tired. Beach towels and bath robes provided which was a nice surprise. The hot tub is lovely. WiFi worked perfectly. Didn't use the DVD or conservatory. A welcome pack is provided consisting of all the essentials - tea, coffee, sugar, milk plus a bottle of wine and local tea cakes. There was a key on the hook for the "reception laundry room" but couldn't find it. All in all I'd give it 8/10 due to 3 niggles: 1. We couldn't use the shower on arrival as the plug was full of other people's hair, which my hubby unblocked - yuck. 2. The superking bed is actually two singles put together with a zip up mattress and so the bedding doesn't fit adequately. 3. The duvet is thin, which is okay for summer but need something more substantial during the winter months. A welcome book/instructions on how to use the boiler and electric fire would have been handy.

  We have had a lovely week at The Stables (2 adults and 2 children).

  The location is ideal with a 5 minute walk to the beach, paddle board hire, restaurants and shops. There is plenty of car park space either side of the cottage. The conservatory was great for meal time and playing games. We enjoyed watching the wildlife in the field next door and watching the fly-bys. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after a day at the beach. The care taker checked the hot tub every 2 days. The bath robes and towels were a great extra for the hot tub. As the details do say there is only one bathroom downstairs and the main bedroom is upstairs. There is a rail on left side of the steeper than usual steps (only noticed as had a knee injury). We appreciated the ample storage in both bedrooms. We would have appreciated an outside shower to wash off sand prior entering cottage or hot tub. We had to use the kids' buckets to carry out water to the garden to wash off beach shoes and toys. Overall we had a fantastic time, with lovely views, quiet atmosphere and cosy cottage. Staff were friendly and quick to assist throughout our stay.

  We stayed over Christmas and had a lovely week there.

  4 adults and a dog. Great location, lovely well equipped cottage for all our needs. Couple of minutes walk away from the beach, local shop, Sea Shanty restaurant (we ate there Christmas Eve and the food and service was great), a few other cafes and an Indian restaurant/takeaway and fish and chip shop. The bedrooms were spacious and lots of storage and very comfy beds. The lounge was cosy with great heating system electric fire. It was exceptionally cold during our stay so we contacted the owner/caretaker who brought round a portable heater for the conservatory, which enabled us to take full advantage of both rooms downstairs. Conservatory overlooked a large field and then the sea. We had lovely afternoons watching rabbits and birds from the conservatory, with a cuppa. Only downside is open garden and we needed to keep our dog on a lead at all times, which was fine for us as we did not sit outside. The hot tub was a lovely addition with towels and robes provided, which was great. Lovely relaxed Christmas, enjoyed by all 5 of us.
