What our customers say about their holidays

  Generally we had a really good holiday at this apartment and would certainly consider booking again.

  Here are all the good points: - convenient location close to local amenities and shops (including the best fish and chip shop on the island - Finneys) - Parking for 2 cars (and really nice neighbours who saw the size of our motability vehicle and offered us an easier space to park in) - Well laid out and comfortable overall - Well equipped kitchen - Warm - Pleasant, helpful owner - Quiet even though it is on the main road (but we were there during term time) - Bed linen good and nice soft furnishings - Property was clean when we arrived - Dog friendly - Easy to negotiate for people with mobility issues (not sure about for those using a wheelchair though) Some things to note though: - Third bedroom is very, very small and has no window. Listing does say it's a child/teenager room but note that it doesn't have anywhere to hang clothes or any sort of bedside table - Outside space isn't really private and is right on the main road, so we didn't feel that comfortable using it - The lounge is much smaller than it looks in the photos - although still ok for 4 adults and a dog - There is a dining table for 4 but it's really not functional because it's up against a wall and there isn't room to leave it out and still access the kitchen properly - lots of chipped crockery (mentioned to the owner) - Could benefit from a set of instruction manuals for the appliances (although the owner did show us how to use the induction hob) - Towels are very worn - but clean - Anti-slip bathmats desperately needed replacing (spoke to owner and he brought new ones for the next guests) - Owner did tell us there had been a damp problem in the main bedroom but we were careful to use the dehumidifier he provided

  We had a lovely holiday.

  Great location and accommodation. What has spoiled our holiday is within 24 hours of return the owner sends photos of a knife with a chipped end and a knife block with a missing knife, with a shrouded accusation of us breaking/losing/taking them. The kitchen utensils were not all complete when we arrived, eg missing egg slice from a utensil tree. There was a chipped plate and glass. Some of the covers on Downlights in the living room were missing We would never dream of raising such as an issue or photographing such things as they tend to occur in rentals and don’t adversely affect our holiday A threat to charge us for the broken/ missing items is hugely offensive to us. We regularly holiday in the Uk at similar rentals and have never had an issue like this. We left the house clean and tidy, stripped used beds and placed towells ready for laundry. I hope the owner of this property finds the “missing “ knife in the drawer and accepts a chipped blade is simply a matter of wear and tear.

  Arlan is a lovely, welcoming house.

  It is light and bright and feels homely and comfortable. It is beautifully furnished with a nautical, seaside theme which we loved! We found everything we needed in the kitchen and were grateful for the supplies of tea and coffee, washing up liquid etc. The appliances are modern and there are good work services including a useful kitchen island. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the bedding smelt lovely and fresh. The view from the main bed room is fabulous and on a clear day you can see the sea at Benllech. The house’s proximity to Benllech is a real bonus! The outside space is really well planned and furnished. It would be great to use on a warm, sunny day. The car parking space also makes life easy. Communication with Jayne, the owner was great. Thank you for a lovely stay, Jayne. We hope to come back to Arlan in the future.

  Nice house, clean and comfortable.

  Don’t arrive in the dark like we did, you’ll never find the parking, we ended up parking on the road opposite. Following day we parked around the back of the house but someone was in the allocated space so parked elsewhere and ended up with a note on the windscreen from the neighbour (we weren’t blocking anyone or any gates) Lights in the games room didn’t work and although Jayne was lovely when I contacted her, the suggestion of trip switches wasn’t the fix and then we were going home so I felt there was no point sending anyone. The breakfast bar stools are a bit tired & tatty and there’s a tatty child’s chair in the lounge. The lounge would benefit from some side tables to put drinks on as there was nowhere to put them. Altogether a nice enough house, we stay in Benllech regularly but never stayed here before.

  We were three couples for this long weekend break and we all loved the house, huge kitchen, great lounge area, location, views, and our bedrooms.

  Parking at rear in gated courtyard for two cars. The house was very clean, and we had a bottle of lovely white white and fresh flowers too waiting for us, thank you very much. Fluffy towels, constant hot water, lots of seating, plenty of space and storage. Kitchen well equipped, (a non stick pan for fried eggs would be helpful). Utility room on ground floor with shower if you were to come off beach and be sandy. Pubs close by so could walk for meals in the evening, but booking essential. Red Wharf Bay is very peaceful and nice walks along the coastline. Just a minor comment, when top bathrooms both in use the showers stop suddenly then start up again, so made sure each couple knew who was using shower beforehand! We all had a wonderful stay in a really beautiful house and would recommend 4 The Quay to everyone.
