Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests have highlighted the exceptional cleanliness of the cottage, with numerous mentions of the property being pristine upon arrival. One review mentioned finding dust and debris under furniture, but this appears to be an isolated incident in the context of otherwise glowing reports.
The cottage's location in Anglesey is frequently praised for its tranquillity and scenic views. It is considered a perfect base for exploring the island and enjoying nearby dog-friendly beaches. However, some guests noted it is a bit of a drive to local amenities, slightly impacting the score.
Guests have found the cottage very comfortable, with special mentions of the quality bedding, spacious rooms, and cosy lounge with a log burner. The addition of a conservatory and enclosed garden enhances the comfort level, although a suggestion for bedroom mirrors was noted.
The cottage is well-equipped with a hot tub, log burner, and a kitchen stocked with utensils. Guests appreciated the secure garden and the thoughtful welcome pack. Some minor issues were reported, such as a problem with the washing machine and a damp problem in the conservatory, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident from the welcome packs, festive decorations, and dog treats. These gestures have been well-received, although it is politely noted that such gifts, while appreciated, may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Itâs a beautiful cottage, furnished to a very high standard and it had the bonus of a lovely hot tub. The cottage is well situated to explore all over Anglesey. The owners have kindly thought of everything you will need during your stay and the welcome pack was well received. The cottage was also beautifully clean, we couldnât fault it. We will definitely return.

Outdoor space is great for the dog with additional paddocks for the dog to run free. Hot tub was fab. Gwen was very helpful when we had a WiFi issue. The local town of Rhosneigr has a beautiful beach with lots of lovely places to eat. The whole island was very welcoming and dog friendly.

We had our 3 dogs with us and unfortunately 1 was very poorly so we needed to stay home more than usual but that wasnât a problem . The enclosed garden and hot tub were especially useful and we were blessed with beautiful weather . Lovely setting and very private
