“We had a lovely stay at Vine Tree Barn.”

Bruce the Vizsla loved his first holiday. Everything needed in the Barn and the owner was very responsive and helpful with any queries. Would stay again if we ever get back to Anglesy

“Lovely property, although there were no signs of damp, the bed was extremely ...”

Lovely property, although there were no signs of damp, the bed was extremely damp, we had to be sandwiched between blankets/throws we brought from home, very unkempt garden and hardly any lights worked, (none at all externally), the track needs to be looked at as access was a little hairy, if the owners got these things sorted it would be wonderful

“Fantastic location, really quiet and natural.”

Loved the character of the building. A few bits that could be tweaked but didn’t affect our stay. John next door was so helpful and friendly. Would return again

“Really peaceful and beautiful location (after braving the drive!”

) The upstairs lounge/kitchen felt very warm and cosy and we all loved listening to the wild sounding wind and rain whilst feeling snug. The garden was secure for our dog and he enjoyed sniffing around and exploring. As relatively tall people, we found the low doors a bit of an issue

“We had an amazing time loved every minute thank you”

“We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Vine Tree Barn and fully appreciate its charm and character in a beautiful location.”

The outside seating area on the upstairs balcony is a magical spot to listen to the birdsong and the private garden is a real sun trap with shady areas perfect for the dog to snooze. We prepared dinner in the cottage every evening and did not find the kitchen to be lacking in any way whatsoever. It’s a very spacious property, appointed in a rustic fashion - in keeping with the building - and we found the furniture and beds to be very comfortable. It was spotless throughout. Ideally situated for exploring Anglesey and North Wales, we will definitely book to stay again.

“We were really disappointed with the standard of the cottage.”

The bathroom had loose taps, the toilet seat was ill fitting and dirty underneath with rusty hinges, tiles were missing near the sink/toilet. The bedrooms had very cheap mattresses that you could feel springs when lying down. The kitchen was very basic with minimal equipment, only 3 cereal bowls one of which was chipped/cracked. The garden was supposed to be dog friendly but the gate had broken so we couldn’t let the dog out without a lead. The heating was overpowering with no means of control. The old mis matched furniture in the lounge made it look like a care home! The outside of the cottage is very pretty but the inside and the garden certainly needed more care, upkeep and maintenance with greater attention to detail. We were disappointed with the cottage overall and wouldn’t stay there again.

- Amelia, April 2023

While we appreciate the feedback, if you had contacted us while you are staying we would have done our best to resolve any matters which we could have. The toilet seat and tiles have been replaced, we just needed time free in the cottage in order to do so. Our housekeeper is very conscientious and reports damages to us as soon as possible. It hard to imagine now but the weather was not favourable to garden maintenance at that time but we have managed to catch up with the outside requirements. Property Owner

“We booked the Vine Tree Barn the just 24hrs beforehand, fully aware that the weather predicted for Anglesea was wet wet wet…….”

. however, with high hopes this property to be our sanctuary for the week. It did indeed deliver and we had the most wonderful week watching and listen to the rain and wind, while enjoying roaring wood fires, deep comfy sofas, 24hrs hot water, comfy beds with fluffy Egyptian Cotton towels, free standing cast-iron bath, and an amazing Rain Shower/wet room. Everything we needed was provided, and we weren’t left wanting any household items. We were touched by the kindness on arrival to find a basket full of wood and fire lighters, milk and delicious Welsh cake to get us settled in, thank you for this. When the weather eased, trips to Beaumaris, Anglesea Sea Salt venue, Sea Zoo,Dinner at Dylan’s restaurant, and Chinese takeaways - all within a 15 - 20mts drive away. The balcony area looked like it would have been a delightful spot to catch the morning sun over breakfast, sadly, the weather was not in our favour to enjoy this area of the property nor the little garden. The road down to the property was not as bad as I had feared from previous reviews - just a slower drive down long what is a farm track with a few pot holes, nothing to worry about at all, and at the end, a lovely barn conversion awaits! Will happily return to Vine Tree Barn, to experience Anglesea in warmer/sunnier seasons. One of the loviest properties, with all mod cons, yet remains sympathetic to its original structure, we loved our stay!

“It's such a lovely cottage!”

Pictures don't show real beauty off this place. Two spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms. Whole place very clean.The living room connected with the kitchen is situated on the first floor. Stone wall wood beams and fireplace gave sooo cosy atmosphere

- Emilia, December 2022
Jeanette October 2022

“A well priced cottage.”

A lovely log burner and a short drive from the stunning Newborough area. The bedding and towels were lovely and clean and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils. Our two boys loved the games that were provided- the Frozen themed snakes and ladders was a firm favourite. Card games and colouring meant cosy nights in front of the fire playing family games. No Wi-Fi/ signal but this added to a restful break.

“We had a lovely time staying at vine tree barn.”

The property was well equipped, very comfortable beds, large enclosed garden. neighbours were friendly. Welcome gift of welsh cakes and chocolate was a nice touch. We also appreciated that there was already a small bottle of milk in the fridge and tea/coffee. Only a short drive to the most beautiful beach (llanddwyn beach) which is next to Newborough forest where there are wild ponies and a lovely walk. Only negative is the road to the property is very bumpy. Pili palas nature world is well worth a visit which again is only a short drive away. We would book with them again.

“Beautiful cottage, amazingly clean on arrival, facilities were fantastic, including a great wet room shower and a huge roll top bath.”

Size wise it suited us (two adults, an 8 year old child and a small bulldog) perfectly for space. Anglesey was as picturesque as we had thought, beautiful beaches with views of the snowdonia mountains. The only slight negative of the whole experience is the driveway as others have mentioned, steep, potholed, loose gravel etc but other than this we recommend and would happily stay again if we came back to Anglesey.

- Thomas, July 2022
Leah June 2022

“The property was absolutely gorgeous.”

So spacious and well equipped for the two of us. The shower in the en-suite wet room was amazing! As it was hot when we stayed here, we made very good use of the balcony which was just perfect as it comes right off the kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked with all the equipment you would need. Plenty of room in the fridge freezer too. The bed was lovely and comfy too. The only negative we would have about the property is the driveway. We knew it was an unmade track before we arrived, however, there are some very big potholes and it's quite steep which made getting onto the main road a bit difficult. Overall, we loved our stay here. The property was well stocked and comfy, the enclosed garden was perfect for our dog, and the balcony was gorgeous in the morning and evening sun. We would definitely stay here again.

“The property provided us with everything we needed for a perfectly relaxing week with our aging and somewhat grumpy Jack Russell terrier.”

The barn conversion is beautiful, furnished with love and decorated with original art. The position is peaceful and private and the addition of a small balcony just off the kitchen which is upstairs was where we spent most of our time. As we have spent many breaks on Anglesey exploring we felt this was perfectly positioned to do that if we felt like it but the lure of the peace and the comfort of the house were more than enough for us this time. Care is needed driving from the road down the private track, which is just a typical rough farm track.

Nigel October 2021

“The musty smell of damp as you enter the property was off-putting.”

We were unable to keep the log burner alight (we have one at home so we are experienced users) so that was extremely frustrating and dissapointing. The central heating was inadequate and there was no consistent supply of hot water. So, we only stayed one night rather than the five we had booked. We would not recommend this property and would suggest it's either up-graded or only booked during the summer months.

“We really enjoyed our recent holiday in Vine Tree Barn.”

It was particularly enjoyable being in part of a very old manor house in lovely surrounding gardens. We were lucky enough to meet the owner and his lovely dogs and another neighbour and his dog were always very welcoming. On arrival in the barn we received Welsh cakes, milk and flowers which were a warm gesture and much appreciated. The barn was very characteristic, cosy and beautifully laid out, clean and very well equipped. Well known walks on the island and in Snowdonia were again enjoyed, new places discovered and family visited, so a really good holiday all round. Thank you.

“This was a lovely cottage in need of some TLC.”

The road down to the cottage was badly rutted and difficult to manoeuvre.

- Pamela, May 2021
Marisa May 2021

“Pam, Mark and John were very friendly as before.”

We love this cottage as it meets our needs with our dog, really well. The garden is almost fully enclosed. Just a small gap between the fence post nearest the farm house side, which only a very adventurous dog might escape through. Also this time we noted a damp corner of twin bedroom, but this didn’t affect the enjoyment of our stay. Visiting in May, meant we could enjoy the coffee table in garden, and on the balcony. Thanks again!

“The location is great for a relaxing holiday and brilliant location for everything on the island.”

Only 4 miles to Newborough beach. Cottage is clean and welcoming with log fire. Great for dogs as secure rear garden. Would recommend for a chilled out holiday.

Joyce February 2020

“The cottage lived up to its expectations.”

We were there February, but I would gladly go back in the Summer. It’s home from home. Everything you need is there. The only thing is if anybody is going, the postcode leads you to the cottage across the road! A signpost with Vine Tree Barn on the main road would be helpful. Apart from this, we really enjoyed our stay.

“Stayed here in December for the New Year.”

Location: Great base for exploring Anglesey. Our first time so we wasn’t sure what to expect and where to go but because the location is central it was around 15-20 minutes drive to all the costal locations. Roads are great, no traffic anywhere. Accommodation: Lovely barn conversion, wood burning fire and central heating. We stayed in December and the barn was so warm! Fully equipped kitchen, don’t really need to take anything with you! Washing machine, dishwasher, oven, fridge freezer, cutlery all provided. Lovely garden, can imagine in the summer it’s beautiful to sit out. Has a secure garden which was great as we took the dog. Nice and comfortable homely feel, peaceful location. Lots of dog friendly places nearby to visit. Pub, Holland’s Arms Hotel in walking distance. Gaerwen Arms is lovely and a few minute drive. Overall for the price, we had a great stay.

“Lovely house but needs some attention.”

It wasn’t in the best state of repair to justify the price! No mention of the steep track down full of pot holes.

“A lovely barn, which was set in a lovely spot, very quiet and peaceful.”

The barn was very clean, and homely and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Welcome tea, coffee milk and biscuits very welcome after a long drive. Could not fault property, and would highly recommend. Would re book this property.

Vic Heard Sep 2017

“The cottage was very nice especially the upstairs living area.”

It would have got 5 were it not for a few snags eg no hairdryer, and a number of lights, particularly in the kitchen area, not working. If I read the spec on the website properly I wouldn't have booked the cottage because there was no wifi. I keep all my holiday information, maps, places to visit in the cloud. My fault for not checking it properly but it means I won't rebook.

“Seemed a little unloved and not up to the normal Menai standards I'm afraid.”

We were unsure of the cottage from the limited pictures but as we had been impressed by the standards of all of the previous Menai cottages decided to go for it. Whilst it was a little cheaper than some others we felt the bathrooms and kitchen let it down. Also, lawn not mown and no hand soap or dishwasher tablets. This was a long way from the south stack cottage we stayed in the week before and felt Vine Tree in comparison was over-priced as a result.
