The welcome pack received was extremely generous and appreciated by all. Beautiful furnishings inside with every conceivable amenity provided, beds lovely and comfy, soo tempting to sleep in every morning! Lovely back garden with a hot tub as an added extra. Loved the woodburner in the evening, very cosy. Cemaes bay is a lovely place with just enough going on to keep everyone occupied with a lovely beach.
