“The property owner was good at communicating before our stay to let us know the time we could arrive, key collection details and property/village information.”
We were also given 2 phone numbers which we could have used if the need arose. During our stay a gardener came to cut the grass and tidy the garden.
We found the property easily with the directions given and were very happy with the location which is on a residential, quiet street, but is easily walkable to the beach in a few minutes and the village amenities in around 10mins. We were expecting the drive to be steep from reading previous reviews and it is rather steep, but we managed it no problem by the driver reversing down being guided by the other and when going out 1 person guided the driver to help with restricted visibility. It did help having an automatic vehicle.
The house itself is well furnished with an open plan lounge, 2 double bedrooms, a modern kitchen/diner and shower room. There are so many cupboards in the kitchen that it takes a couple of days to remember where things are, there is a fridge, freezer, washing machine, dryer, iron, vacuum cleaner but no dishwasher, however you do get a lovely sea view while washing up! The kitchen had a lot more plates, cups, glasses, utensils etc. than we needed with only 2 of us for a week.
The lounge and bedrooms are carpeted and the colour of this is rather light for a rental property. We didn't find this a problem as we always remove our outdoor shoes in the porch at home, so did the same here, but you can see that not everyone has done this, especially in the lounge.
The heating came on at set times morning and evening and we found the house to be very cosy.
There are plenty shops, cafes, takeaways, pubs etc in the village.
The bedroom we used had a firm but comfortable bed, We slept well as it was quiet but then we were also hiking around 7 miles every day on the fabulous coastal path! We found it was very easy to drive anywhere on the beautiful island from Benllech and would definitely return in the future.
