Furnishings, cleanliness and layour were first class. Many thanks to the owner who went out of their to help us with our daughter who has additional needs and to the local office contacting us when we had a very short, 15 minute, power cut.

“Lovely Cottage, great location.”

Mr Jennings October 2021

“A truly delightful 'away from the crowds' holiday , the location is just stunning with Natures Window in your Garden - we loved it.”

The House is comfortable and had good facilities with quality furnishings and bedding giving it the edge . It is very easy to explore the Island and all its beauty but you do have it right on your own doorstep.

“Lovely cottage in a lovely location.”

One problem was we couldn't get WiFi or Interenet.

Mrs Hiley April 2021

“Beautiful cottage in a quiet and peaceful location with stunning views.”

The cottage was as described and photographed with the exception of the lounge furniture. It is a small living dining area but perfectly adequate if it had the right size furniture, perhaps better for 2 than 4 people. We were surprised to see that the small sofa had been replaced with a large, not new- pale blue, grubby looking, sofa. With the 2 large chairs (also grubby - arms were marked and dirty) there was very little room to move about. After a long period of lockdown we were surprised that the furniture had not been subjected to a deep clean - it was as if someone was clearing out old stuff and just put it in there.... The kitchen facilities were good and although we didn't feel the need for a freezer I can appreciate that if it was more than 2 people for a few days it could be a problem. As someone else has mentioned, there could be for room for a fridge freezer if there were less storage units. That said it was a great location with beautiful walks and a great time was had enjoying watching the red squirrels that definitely loved hazelnuts. The lambs were also a joy to watch. Will consider staying again.

- Mrs Hiley, April 2021
Mr Wright October 2020

“Estuary Cottage was glorious, far away from the madding crowd which was spot on for the 'crazy times' we are living through right now.”

We pretty much knew where the pitfalls would be from reading comments left by previous visitors and I can both agree and understand the comments left: (a) the lack of a freezer - I understand because it fits in with the extremely well laid out and equipped kitchen (neff no less so very reliable) but agree because it was lacking in space for even just the 2 of us meaning we made more shopping trips than we would have liked although we found Tesco, Waitrose and Hootons farm shop to be COVID 19 compliant. (b) satellite signal - the weather was pretty atrocious and the signal on 'Free-sat TV' went down on day 3 which meant we had to read, amuse ourselves and enjoy the surroundings - nothing wrong with that but just be prepared for it. We have no doubt we will be back in time ( God Willing) if only to check out the red squirrels (PS they adore hazelnuts (£3 a bag Tesco) and it's great fun watching them hiding them for the winter)! STAY SAFE EVERYONE

- Mr Wright, October 2020
Mrs Judge September 2020

“Lovely accommodation with wonderful views across the estuary.”

Twice we saw red squirrels in the garden. Lots of beautiful countryside and the coastal path accessible from the cottage. A good fish and chip shop a short drive away in Moelfre. What more could anyone want? We definitely hope to return.

- Mrs Judge, September 2020
Emma and Eddie Sep 2020

“Lovely lovely holiday!”

So much time spent going own the Estuary. Fabulous spot and cottage and has really opened our eyes to this side of the Island. Great coastal walks and cycling. We will be back!! Thank you.

Daniel Parry Jul 2020

“After three months of 'lockdown', we were all really looking forward to a change of scenery.”

Estuary Cottage certainly delivered! What a well set up cottage, in a beautiful location! We love the decor and the fact it has everything that you may need for a self catering holiday. It also has the added bonus of all the wildlife and scenery. Looking to revisit again. Thanks so much.

- Daniel Parry, Jul 2020
Mr Green March 2020

“We have had a wonderful holiday even though the weather could have been kinder ,it DID Not stop us from doing some lovely walks.”

Our little dog NELL. Loved the beach at Lligwy just right for chasing her ball , The ever changing views from our cottage window was magical! And seeing the red squirrel. WOW. We would like to draw your attention to the front porch door that you can not close, and also the water ingress into the porch, making the hanging of coats a complete waste of time, in other words they get VERY WET . Also the freezing compartment in the fridge,is inadequate for four people, how don't want to shop every day . But after saying that. I wish I was back at ESTUARY cottage now instead of doing the washing. Yours sincerely Marjorie and Philip Green

Mr Davies February 2020

Mr Ratcliffe October 2019

“Had a great stay at Estuary Cottage.”

Location is very secluded which suited us. Cottage was clean, comfortable, well equipped and very well heated. Internet was poor but that is understandable due to location, but all our phones had 4G reception. Would definitely recommend this cottage and would love to return. Feedback for improvement - landowners kindly let cottage guests walk across private land to the public coastal path. During the weekends there was a pheasant shoot on the private land and we ended up walking back through the shoot which had to be stopped for us to pass. If there had be details of the time of the shoot in the cottage information we would have avoided the land at that time.

- Mr Ratcliffe, October 2019
Miss Mapuranga October 2019

“Absolutely stunning little cottage with beautiful views.”

My family really enjoyed the cosiness of the cottage and the serene surroundings. Would definitely recommend and we will definitely be going back in the future. Loved it

- Miss Mapuranga, October 2019
Mrs Sutherland October 2019

“The cottage and situation was stunning.”

However we were unable to switch on the heating outside the times set by the owners And whilst I understand some of the reasons for this some guests may for health reason require the heating during the day and this was not available

- Mrs Sutherland, October 2019
Mr Gleeson September 2019

“Lovely cottage at the end of a lane that cuts across the coastal path with views out across a field and Dulas Estuary.”

From the cottage you can walk to the other side of the Estuary or towards LLligwy beach. It is a bit isolated (having one nearby neighbour and a farm) but at the end of the private road is the Pilot Inn pub which we found to be friendly. As it is so isolated I would have preferred less kitchen cupboards and a decent sized fridge freezer as the one in the cottage is a small fridge with an ice box and for us we ate in a lot due to the cottage's location and the local area so had to make a few trips to Benllech out for re stocking milk, bread and other essentials. The cottage itself is warm and comfortable with great showers upstairs and downstairs, open plan living and kitchen space with lovely views. Only niggle with cleanliness was their was tissues and string under the coach suggesting it hadn't had a deep clean in a while. The addition of the porch was a great idea, the inner door is still a bit tricky and we tended to use the patio as the main way in and out. If some coat hooks were added to the porch area it would be great for hanging wet coats as well as storing the wellies and walking boots. Longish walk to the beach but beautiful spot to get away from it all. I would recommend.

- Mr Gleeson, September 2019
Sue & Mike Halliday, Cheshire Sep 2019

We could stay forever, but alas we can't. Couldn't get enough of the peace and tranquility and the amazing view of the estuary.

“The cottage and views speak for themselves.”

Make the most of this experience and connect with nature. We have been privileged to see a buzzard close up as it flew past the patio door being harassed by a crow. Two - yes two! Red Squirrels in the garden every day and numerous birds all from the comfort of the cottage. We walked down to the estuary a couple of times and saw a hare and Egrets. Thankyou for the generous welcome pack. The cottage is so clean and cosy. We also had really good weather, we are totally chilled out.

“Beautiful cottage well presented and comfortable.”

Very impressed with everything that was provided for us including logs for the wonderful log burner !! Loved sitting in the window seat with a morning cuppa watching the world go by on the estuary, it was so relaxing .

“Clean & well presented with enough comfy chairs for everyone to relax on.”

Good quality outdoor furniture meant we were able to use the outdoor space too. The owners had gone to some length to equip the cottage properly & everything functioned as it should. My only grips would be; firstly, crockery was in short supply(we only had 4 bowls for example) & secondly, the front door was a little tricky to lock. Other than that we loved it & would recommend to others. In fact we already have!

“Excellent cottage with great views and very well equipped.”

Very cosy, though there were only two of us in a two bedroom place, might have been a bit squashed with 4 adults. The main bedroom was brilliant, lovely and big and very airy. Once we got it going and warm the heating system was great [until we had a power cut!]
