“H Jem is a very nice well equipped property.”

Very comfortable bed, lots of wardrobe space and hangers provided. Very nice main room and comfortable. New bathroom, super shower, the magnifying mirror is magic. The bungalow is top clean, could do with a good spring clean and one of the windows in the main bedroom doesn't fully close so you can hear passing traffic and it lets the cold in. There was instructions for the central heating control but that wasn't working as possibly the boiler was switched off somewhere and the weather had ...

Very comfortable bed, lots of wardrobe space and hangers provided. Very nice main room and comfortable. New bathroom, super shower, the magnifying mirror is magic. The bungalow is top clean, could do with a good spring clean and one of the windows in the main bedroom doesn't fully close so you can hear passing traffic and it lets the cold in. There was instructions for the central heating control but that wasn't working as possibly the boiler was switched off somewhere and the weather had changed so it was quite cold in the bedroom. But overall we enjoyed our stay at H Jem. Carolyn Marshall

Margaret September 2024

“Forth time at this lovely bungalow, as usual we thoroughly enjoyed are visit.”

Love the new kitchen doors. Only gripe was the back bedroom mattress, the centre spring feels close the coming through. Everything else was perfect as always, comfy, clean and very well equipped. Oh, unlocking and locking the front door is a nightmare.

- Margaret, September 2024

Thank you, once again, for your lovely feedback and continued support, it is very much appreciated. I am visiting Benllech on Thursday so will look at replacing the mattress and rectifying the lock problem asap. So pleased you enjoyed your stay and hope you will visit H Jem again soon.

Yvonne April 2024

“Had a lovely holiday.”

Ideal position for beautiful Beach. Garden great for us and the dogs. Everything we needed. Could have been cleaner but nothing drastic. Locks on outside doors could do with some attention.

June April 2024

“This was our second visit to H Jem and once again we had a lovely relaxing holiday.”

The bungalow is homely, well equipped and very comfortable. The garden is large and enclosed which made it perfect for our little dog. It was lovely to be able to walk to the beach and along the coastal path. The shops, pubs and restaurants are all within walking distance, but it is hilly. It was a bonus to be able to leave the car on the drive. We are looking forward to another visit soon. Thank you.

- June, April 2024

Thank you for your lovely, positive feedback, once again. We really do appreciate it and look forward to your next visit to H Jem on beautiful Anglesey. Property Owner
Gillian March 2024

“The accommodation was fantastic and in a brilliant location for the beach and costal paths with the dogs.”

The only issue we had was a strong smell in one of bedrooms and front door key would not work. This was not an issue for us as we just walk round to the back entrance and the own of the property addressed the smell issue. We will be booking this holiday home again for 2025. Thankyou for a lovely holiday

- Gillian, March 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide feedback and especially for your positive and encouraging comments. We strive to maintain H Jem to the highest standard to ensure our guests have the holiday they deserve. We are pleased you enjoyed your time on Anglesey and so thrilled to read that you plan to visit us again next year. Property Owner
Terence March 2024

“Another wrongly listed property by Sykes did not mention all of the steps everywhere .”

. we had to come back after 4 days losing 6 days holiday .. this is not a reflection on the owner but on Sykes …we will never use Sykes again and they have the cheek and Gaul to try to sell us another property as soon as we arrive . Would I recommend Sykes no chance at all..

- Terence, March 2024

Thank you for your comment. I just want to clarify that H Jem was built as a fairly standard bungalow and that there are no staircases. There is a step into the porch and one into the hall. The main part of the property, housing the lounge, kitchen, hall, main bathroom and two of the bedrooms has no steps at all between any of the rooms. There is one step into the conservatory and two steps out to the back garden. I am sorry if your holiday didn’t meet your expectations. Property Owner
Sarah February 2024

“We had a lovely holiday.”

Thank you. The front doors need looking at as the locks were very difficult to lock. The double bedroom door handle is nearly falling off. Was worried if I shut the door I wouldn’t be able to get out. I would also recommend more cleaning products. Like cloths to clean the bathroom. Other than these which were actual minor things. We had a great time and look forward to coming again. Thank you

- Sarah, February 2024

Thank you for your valuable feedback, it is always appreciated. So pleased you enjoyed your stay at H Jem and that you are looking forward to visiting us again. We have recently installed an additional key safe, with a brand new front door key, so that may have been the problem. We recently tested it and it worked well but it may need wearing in. The front door key in the original key safe can be used if an alternative key is needed. We were not aware of a problem with the bedroom door handle so will ensure it is repaired, and cleaning products and cloths will be replenished. Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. Property Owner
Douglas October 2023

“We found H Jen to be an excellent bungalow for a very enjoyable holiday with our dogs.”

- Douglas, October 2023

Thank you for your positive feedback, it is very much appreciated. I would also like to thank you for leaving H Jem so clean and tidy on your departure. So pleased you had a lovely holiday and hope you will come back soon. Property Owner

“The property was excellent.”

Everything we needed for a great stay. Very comfortable furniture throughout.

- M, September 2023

Thank you so much for your positive feedback. It really is appreciated. We are pleased you had a great stay in Benllech and hope you will come back for another visit. Property Owner
Margaret September 2023

“This was our third visit to H-Jem, it's beginning to feal like our second home.”

We are both really happy with how comfortable the beds etc; are. The kitchen has just about everything you need, although I always take a small non-stick frying pan with me to any house we stay at. Nearly all cottages have seriously damaged frying pans. It's only a short walk down the road to a footpath that takes you down some steps to the beach. Co-Op and a Spar are just a couple of minutes drive away. What's not love.

- Margaret, September 2023

Thank you very much for your positive feedback, it’s lovely for us to read and truly appreciated. So pleased that you are a returning guest, that’s great feedback in itself! Thanks again and look forward to your next visit Property Owner
Kevin August 2023

“Thank you- we had a fantastic time.”

The property was ideally suited, fully equipped, clean and comfortable. It was our first visit to Benllech, We will definitely will be back - beautiful beaches in a great location to explore the surrounding area’s.

- Kevin, August 2023

Thank you so much for your positive feedback, it is very much appreciated. Lovely to hear you had a great holiday at H Jem and enjoyed your time on Anglesey. I hope you will visit us again. Property Owner
Vaughan July 2023

“This is the smallest bungalow we have stayed in and even though it has facilities for 6 people to sleep and dine, it did not have the room for 6 people to sit comfortably together.”

It also only has the one room to sit in and only one television There were no facilities for various age groups and wasn’t equipped for bad weather with games or activities It was also near a main road which is not stated in the description of the property The patio area and garden were good and the beach wasn’t too far for the abled bodied.

- Vaughan, July 2023

Thank you for your valuable feedback. I am working with Sykes to resolve all issues where possible. There are 3 seater and 2 seater sofas and a large rocker with cushions. We provide a PS2, games, books and cards. We will add board games and jig-saws. H Jem is adjacent to a road leading into the village but is separated by a large lawn, high fence, shrubbery and a deep grassed area beyond our boundary wall. Apologies for any inconvenience and hope you enjoyed Anglesey and all it has to offer. Property Owner
Christopher July 2023

“When viewing the location of the cottage we stayed in Bellech, H Jem, on your map it appears to be close to the bottom of the road, Lon Conwy, near the entrance to the beach road, however, on arrival, the cottage is actually at the top of the road, next to the main coast road around Anglesey.”

I think you should be more accurate with your listings regarding location as we had a member of our party who has Asthma and hence we opted for a property close to the bottom of the hill, as per your listing. Perhaps providing the full postcode in the listing would help potential bookings locate the property more accurately.

- Christopher, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback, I have asked Sykes to amend the property details. Benllech, like most areas of Wales, is naturally hilly so it is difficult to avoid a climb, either from the beach, or to and from the village centre. I do hope you enjoyed your visit to Anglesey and everything it has to offer. Property Owner
June June 2023

“We had a lovely, relaxing holiday at H Jem.”

The bungalow is very comfortable and well equipped. We loved its position, being 10 minutes walk from the beach and 10 minutes walk from the shops, pubs, takeaways and the butchers. It was lovely to be able to leave the car on the drive for a couple of days. The large enclosed garden was perfect for our little dog and it was nice to be able to sit out when the sun shone. It was the perfect base to explore the many lovely places around. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable. We hope to return one day.

- June, June 2023

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at H Jem and would like to thank you for your positive feedback. It’s good to hear our efforts are appreciated and we do hope you will visit us again soon. Property Owner
Peter June 2023

“Well equipped bungalow, good garden, all village facilities in walking distance.”

Comfortable and clean, everything you need is in the bungalow,.. Just a couple of criticism poor drainage for sinks and shower hence sink pipes smelt a bit, Step outside back door needs to be larger as quite dangerous. Skirting boards and switch sockets need a good clean but other than that the rest of the bungalow was clean Very enjoyable stay, fantastic weather Thank you for having us

- Peter, June 2023

You’re very welcome and thank you for your feedback, it is always appreciated. Hope you will visit us again soon. Property Owner
Norma April 2023

“Lovely bungalow , lovely village Bungalow is ideally situated for both the village and the beach - 10 minute walk for each.”

It's clean,tidy and comfortable.Kitchen has everything you should need.Perfect for dogs - large garden and summer room if they need to dry out.

- Norma, April 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback, it is very much appreciated. Pleased to hear you had another great holiday and that your next stay at H Jem is already booked! Property Owner
Martin April 2023

“Lovely bungalow with everything we needed.”

It’s only a 10 minute walk to the beach which was great in the morning with the dog (although not sure if it is dog friendly all year). Please note the walk back is mostly uphill though - although this was not a problem for me. Due to the dog we normally cook in the accommodation and it had everything we needed. It had a great location in Anglesey to allow us to explore the whole area and beyond. We loved it and there is some stunning scenery in Anglesey to see. Thoroughly recommend!

- Martin, April 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and recommendation. We really appreciate it and hope you will return to H Jem for your next Anglesey holiday. Property Owner
Sheryl Mandy March 2023

“Lovely accommodation, great location, they only niggle was at the front of the property which wasn't dog proof ,the wall in the front garden was small and was only covered by bushes, the dogs could easily get through if needed.”

It was fine around the back, so long as I was outside with them it wasn't a problem, but you couldn't leave them outside unattended due to being close to a busy road.

- Sheryl Mandy, March 2023

Thank you for your positive feedback, it is very much appreciated. The front garden wall is quite low but, apart from one small area in the corner, the shrubbery is over 6 feet high and very dense. Neither of our two dogs have ever been able to ‘escape’ however, I do appreciate that a determined dog, left unattended, would be able to. We have planted more shrubbery in that area and placed a board behind it to secure the garden further whilst it grows. I hope you enjoyed your stay and that you can visit us again soon. Property Owner
Steve March 2023

“Property is clean and modern.”

However, I should have looked on Google maps before booking as this bungalow is adjacent to main road, making road noise a real issue. Internet is intermittent. If these things aren't a problem for you then this would be a decent place to stay.

- Steve, March 2023

Thank you for your feedback, it is very much appreciated. H Jem is adjacent to a main road. We are separated from it by our gardens and a wide grassed area between the boundary wall and the pavement but traffic noise can travel. It is usually only problem at certain times of the day and is generally quiet at night. WiFi on Anglesey, in general, can occasionally be intermittent but it is network wide and not related to H Jem. I apologise for any inconvenience experienced and hope that it did not spoil your holiday. Property Owner
Paula October 2022

“Excellent stay in a great location with all the comforts of home.”

Cottage was very clean and comfortable. Thankyou to the homeowners for the little extras e.g... tea,coffee extra ...nice touch. Benllec was a beautiful place...we thourghly enjoyed ourselves.

- Paula, October 2022

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your lovely feedback, it is important to us and very much appreciated. Property Owner
Julie October 2022

“This place is emaculate, its extremely comfortable and clean.”

Our two little dogs loved the garden. The kitchen had every utensil you can think of. Close to beach, shops and pubs. The down side was we couldn't use the main bedroom as there is damp behind the drawers at the side of the bed near window. We bought air freshener but didn't help unfortunately so we used the other room.

- Julie, October 2022

Thank you for your positive feedback. We will address the damp patch as part of our winter maintenance program. Property Owner
Margaret September 2022

“2nd time we’ve been to this cottage, the first time was in 2019 with “STS-holidays”.”

Very pleased with the cottage then and even more pleased with it this time. Turning the small bedroom into a proper twin-bedded room instead of a room with bunk beds is a great idea. The kitchen is well equipped. I purchased a small frying pan to replace one that was no longer non-stick, it was only £3+, no big deal. We brought some expandable trellis with us to stretch between the shed and the fuchsia bush. It makes the area at the back for the dog a lot more manageable. I only have one complaint, and it’s a big one. I don’t know who the caretaker/cleaner is, but they need a talking to. Because my partner has the dogs bed in his bedroom (she snores something terrible], and I need quiet in order to sleep. We’d decided prior to arriving that we would each have one of the beds in the twin rooms. Wherever we’ve stayed before all the beds have been made up and a bath and hand towel have been on top of them. We were totally stunned, upset and very angry to discover that the only bed that was made up was the double bed. I phoned the caretakers number that’s on the Sykes information about the cottage. It instantly went over to voicemail, so I left a message, no one got back to me or turned up at the cottage. I ended up sleeping in the twin room by the sunroom. I had to use one of the duvets and pillows without covers on them on the bed, fortunately I bring my own quilt with me. We’re hoping to come again next year, so I hope I don’t have the same problem. How dare they decide our sleeping arrangements for us.

- Margaret, September 2022

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are so pleased you like the bungalow and the recent improvements. It was good to also talk to you on the telephone and to apologise for the matter of your sleeping arrangements. Further to my call, resolution was achieved and we look forward to welcoming you back to H Jem in the future. Property Owner

“Great little base for a holiday in Anglesey.”

Clean and tidy. Well equipped. Close to the town centre for pubs, restaurants and shopping. Walking distance to the beach. Recommended

Caroline June 2022

“Nice clean bungalow and good location for exploring island .”

Nice size garden especially good for our dog ,felt nervous with the gap in hedge at the front corner ,maybe needs a bit of netting or infill, certainly not a complaint just an observation though .

- Caroline, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback. So pleased you enjoyed your stay. We have planted some new shrubbery which should cover the gap nicely. Thanks for letting us know. Property Owner

The property

Nestled just a short stroll from the beach, in the seaside village of Benllech, is this wonderfully appointed bungalow, H Jem.

Well-equipped with all the amenities for a short stay, H Jem is an ideal base for a family wishing to getaway to the Isle of Anglesey.

After a day on the beach, wash away the sand in the bathroom before relaxing in the lounge, equipped with a 50” Smart TV so you can enjoy a favourite movie together.

Carry the conversation into the kitchen, fitted with contemporary units and appliances including a dishwasher and washing machine, so you won’t have to worry about bringing your whole wardrobe.

If the weather is on your side, dine alfresco style at the patio furniture whilst your canine companion stretches their legs on the lawn.

As you look to catch some rest, the master bedroom features a king-size bed and two twin rooms, ideally presented for a family getaway.

When you’re ready to explore, there are many superb secluded sandy beaches at Benllech - a short walk from the bungalow is Traeth Benllech, offering generous expanses of inviting sand provide plenty of room for busy beach games, while the gently sloping shore is perfect for paddlers of all ages, and around the headland is Traeth Coch (Red Wharf Bay), a massive 10 square miles in all at low tide, with waders and wild fowl in residence throughout the year.

Benllech is known for the beautiful Gwylfan Moelfre Seawatch, which overlooks the stunningly clear waters of the bay and is perfect for enjoying a peaceful day of fishing, swimming or simply relaxing in the sun.

If you fancy a night away from the kitchen, there are several restaurants, bars and takeaways in the village, including the popular Pebbles Bistro, The Breeze Hill and The Benllech.

For seeking adventure, a scenic drive will bring you to the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, filled with excellent walks, waterfalls and rambles into the wilderness.

There’s plenty to look forward to during a holiday at H Jem, whatever time of year.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
