  We needed premises within an easy distance to Zip World at Bethesda and it had to accommodate 9 adults and a 2 yr old which Brin Eira Stables appeared to do.

  We booked the premises and before we made the journey we had a couple of enquiries which the owner Mrs Brooke kindly sorted out for us and answered our enquiries. The premises are easy to access once over the bridge and were only a 20 minute drive to Zip World. The stables are great as they are so spread out but all inside one building. There is a huge family kitchen that easily sits 10 with room for high chairs as well. There is a conservatory to the rear which leads out to a safe enclosed garden area for children to play in. A nice lounge with TV and room for everyone to watch big events as we were there during the coronation weekend. Bedrooms vary between both sides of the stables with just two bedrooms being up the small flight of stairs, those bedrooms being a large en suite double and a twin. Downstairs below those two bedrooms is another large double with a shower room, toilet and sink close by which can serve both the downstairs double and the upstairs twin. There is a further kitchen fully kitted out with oven, hob, fridge freezer and dishwasher on that side of the stables, together with a raised dining area and bar stool type seating. Beyond the large kitchen on the ground floor on the other side of the stables are two further bedrooms, one double and one twin. These both have access to a further shower room, toilet etc just the other side of the kitchen. So having experienced the main building there is then a further two buildings that offer amenities to guests, these being The Den which is the games room with TV, pool table which converts to a table tennis table and comfortable seating and finally the pool. The pool is just across the courtyard and easily accessed from the main building. It came in really handy as our 2yr old grandson is just getting more comfortable with being in the water and this was an added feature that we really took advantage of. There is a BBQ on the rear enclosed garden complete with fuel packs inside the conservatory. There are books galore to read, novels and local history and information books together with OS maps if you are planning to explore Anglesey during your stay. The railway station with the really long hard to say name is within an easy level 15 / 20 minute walk along well lit roads. The stables are quiet and relaxing considering you have only just left the A55 and you don’t even know it is there. All in all we had a brilliant weekend away with family and friends, everyone enjoyed the stay and the stables and we have already told Mrs Brooke that we cannot wait to stay again. Thanks for a great weekend and a lovely venue.

  Myself, my daughter and two grandsons were impressed by the property on arrival.

  (July 2022) We gave it 5*s for being in immaculate condition, but the biggest bedroom had quite a musty smell, which needed liberal use of Febreze (not supplied) for a couple of days to dispel. The comfortable furnishings suit the character of the property, although one of its quirks is the slightly uneven flooring and various steps within the living areas. The main kitchen has lots of utensils and equipment, all in tip-top condition, and both kitchens are very modern. The wi-fi router (not password protected) is in the games room and while the signal is good in the main living areas, it does not extend to any of the bedrooms. The two bedrooms accessed through the little kitchen have dehumidifiers that need emptying every day, but the house didn’t feel cold; the boiler comes on several times a day leaving the towel rails scalding hot! While there are small shops locally, a large Tesco is only a five-minute drive away, along with other major retail stores. Unfortunately, for the second year running, we picked the wrong week for our holiday: miserable weather and gale winds meant we never used the BBQ, but the boys got lots of use out of the swimming pool and games room. Overall, it’s a super property in a good location to explore Anglesey and North Wales.

  Absolutely disgusted-saved for 3 years to pay over £2000 for a week our first family break since covid with children and grandaughter and so many issues!

  Complained to owner and Sykes but they just don’t care… Cottage is damp and smell so and on arrival it has dehumidifiers going that you have to empty and maintain yourselves, leaving clothes in wardrobe makes them smell… so many pieces of furniture broken, damaged, old and not as pictures! Whole place filthy dirty, oven a mess even found previous guests clothes in drawers, carpets and furniture caked in dog hairs, kettles broken, pans damaged, no arrival pack, broken pool table, pool Was too cold for baby, wifi abismal, owners partner pipes across after day one and said wifi was unexplainable it’s usually good and he’s not interested as it’s his wife’s business! , showers fit very small people, loose taps, loose toilet seats, attached to another property and parking is tight , they were allowed two vehicles max but had 3 all week making it right to manoeuvre..generally in very poor condition, and the owners do not care if you have issues, we tried to get some sort of resolution but now being ignored! This is supposed to be a luxury cottage for 10 with swimming pool and at over £2220 for a week you would expect a bit of luxury- unfortunately you don’t get what you expect … please be careful when booking or simply don’t do it, look elsewhere ….

  Fabulous property, stayed over Christmas with family.

  Perfectly spaced with the kitchen being thin heart of the home during our stay. The kitchen is really well equipped with many pots, pans, glasses etc. the living room with its open fire and kids provided is a cosy space perfect for relaxing in the evening. The youngest ones in the group loved the games room and the swimming pool was a great size and well used. The bedrooms all great sizes with clean comfy bedding. The property was lovely and warm during our stay and although we did venture out a few times it would’ve been just as easy to stay in the property for our whole break. A lovely touch was the Welcome gift of Prosecco, chocolates and panettone! Also it eas beautifully decorated with a real true for our festive stay. Communication with the owner was great and nothing seemed too much trouble for her. Thoroughly recommend Bryan eira stables and we won’t hesitate to go back. Thank you

  Bryn Eira Stables is an outstanding holiday property for a large group ie.

  two families, an extended family or a group of friends. With a large kitchen, conservatory and lounge situated central to the property, those staying up late into the night can do so without affecting those wishing to retire early. Also the den and excellent pool are set away from the main property and their exclusive use can be enjoyed without any impact on those elsewhere in the property. We found the location of the Stables ideal for exploring the whole of the island, enjoying wonderful beaches and scenery as well as being close to Snowdonia and mainland resorts. At no time did we spend any length of time driving to a chosen destination. This is the second time we have stayed at this property and thoroughly recommend it for its accommodation, amenities, location and value for money.
