Helen
The sisters who greeted us were lovely and very friendly. We found the toilets took a while to fill and a fan would have been a bonus in the heatwave we had. It was very private and quiet most of the time. There was a lot of crow scaring bangs during our stay which upset our dog, but not the owners fault. Also in the pictures for the 3 cottages there were privacy fencing between the decking areas, but were not there for our arrival. Our dog was fine as she is laid back with other dogs but not all dogs would be happy. Plus more hooks for hanging leads, coats etc by the front door would be a bonus. But over all it was a lovely stay and very accessible to lots of local sites

The cottage was comfortable with lovely fresh scented bedding and towels. It is ideally situated for exploring Anglesey and close to the town of Menai Bridge for amenities.
