    Lots of lovely touches throughout. Secure garden is a big tick when you have a dog. Kitchen well stocked. Did not have pasta bowls or microwavable plastic containers for cooking veg etc. However I have never come across anywhere that does so we have learned to take our own! Two maintenance issues. The cleaners left us a note to say the drains (both from the kitchen waste and the bathroom) were blocked and this they had reported (Friday). Secondly there was a problem with the freezer door which would not stay shut (we wedged it with the slow cooker). We reported the freezer on the Saturday - sent pictures and a video to the 'Housekeeper' and left two messages but had no response. The maintenance man (lovely fella) came on the Thursday as we were leaving on the Friday to fix the drains (he could only unblock the bathroom drain). He knew nothing about the freezer needing fixing but sorted that out (I think?). None of the above would put me off staying again as such issues naturally occur from time to time. There is a lack of instructions or at least they are not comprehensive. We are not familiar with electric heating but apart from the bathroom radiator got no heat from the other two radiators despite seemingly turning them on. The en-suite is very welcome upstairs with the bathroom being downstairs. The bedroom is much like the downstairs of a very high standard. The bed is one of the best I have experienced. Lots of cupboard and draw space. The joinery is first class! We got talking with the joiner in the pub next door - lovely fella - with an encyclopaedic knowledge of Welsh ancient history.

    Thank you for your very kind review. There are some good recommendations there! I would like to say how very very sorry I am to hear about the problems you had that were not resolved during your stay. I'm very glad to hear you managed to enjoy your holiday despite them. Property Owner

About the location

ABERFFRAW

Rhosneigr 4 miles; Trearddur Bay 10 miles.

The historic, seaside village of Aberffraw, nestles serenely beside the banks of the tidal River Ffraw, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, on the Heritage Coast of Anglesey. Holding an exalted place in Welsh history, this sleepy village, known as ‘the Land of the Prince of Wales', held the title of Capital of North Wales, between the 9th and 13th Centuries. Once an important port, the village now consists of the ancient Church of St Beuno, a picturesque packhorse bridge, tea rooms, Llys Llewelyn Cegin Bar, and a beautiful white sandy beach with stunning, panoramic views of Snowdonia. Explore nearby National Nature Reserve spots at Newborough Warren and Malltraeth Pool, surrounded by sweeping sand dunes and marshes, or enjoy a relaxing day on the award winning beach at Llanddwyn Island. The area is renowned for its fascinating birdlife and breathtaking coastal scenery, and with the renowned watersports centre at Rhosneigr situated just 4 miles away, this is the ideal location for a varied and enjoyable holiday.
