    “Holiday cottage was ready on arrival.”

    Room looked clean but there was a substantial dog odour (we are dog owners and love dogs) but the windows were all open and we assumed it was to mask the smell as once the windows were shut the smell intensified. The stay was pleasant and we slept well. The cabin slept 6 but had six guests been there it would have been cramped and over crowded as the living/dining area is small.

    Room looked clean but there was a substantial dog odour (we are dog owners and love dogs) but the windows were all open and we assumed it was to mask the smell as once the windows were shut the smell intensified. The stay was pleasant and we slept well. The cabin slept 6 but had six guests been there it would have been cramped and over crowded as the living/dining area is small. On departure we were informed we needed to leave the place as we found it (tidy), remove any bed linen and place it into a bag, then finally empty the bins and recycling. Whilst I appreciate it is nice to keep the place tidy, we spent the departure morning cleaning and stripping beds in fear if it wasn’t up to ‘standard’ we would be charged. This is not something any guest should be doing while on ‘holiday’ The bins were a walk down the road and took two journeys due to the recycling, we then stripped beds, hoovered, tidied which took time away from enjoying the area. We are happy to wash up and give the place a quick tidy but moving forward paying guests should not have to clean to this extent as this is what they have paid for. A holiday (self catering or not) should not involve stripping beds and emptying bins!

    Clearly we were sad to read your review, but hope others will see that it is unusual. We are sorry about the odour. We did our usual deep clean that day & always leave the windows on the latch for airing, not for masking any smells as you suggest. Sorry you felt the check out guidelines were an inconvenience. For hygiene reasons we kindly ask guests to strip the beds (used), and we’ve never charged anyone for not doing so. We don’t expect guests to hoover, but yes emptying the bins we do asks guests to do, which is standard practice. Y Caban is situated in the most beautiful location and offers a cosy relaxing break. Obviously we know we won’t please everyone, but it’s a shame you couldn’t share more elements of your break you did enjoy. Property Owner

The property

This detached lodge rests on a sleepy lane on the outskirts of Cemaes Bay, on the Isle of Anglesey in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which guarantees breath-taking and uninterrupted views.

Y Caban has been thoughtfully renovated to a high standard to provide welcoming accommodation suitable for families or groups of friends.

Internally, the lodge offers a single-storey layout and provides a light and airy open-plan living space, perfect for socialising and gathering thoughts after a long day out.

Collapse on the sofa beside the electric fire or take over the kitchen and utilise a range of appliances, including an electric oven and gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and even a dishwasher, so washing up will be a breeze!

Move outside to the wrap-around balcony, offering an elevated view of the surrounding fields, or take a few steps down to the enclosed patio where the hot tub allures you.

The bedrooms are situated at the other side of the lodge and include the master with king-size bed and TV, a double with TV and a twin, ideal for children.

Cemaes Bay is a great base for touring Anglesey; treat the group to a meal out at the Stag Inn or The Bay View Restaurant and Bar where you can enjoy delicious meals while your beloved canine companion rests at your feet.

Stock up on self-catering essentials at the convenience store, and explore the Rock Pools of Traeth Mawr, a scenic and sheltered beach.

You’ll be spoilt for choice with an abundance of beaches to discover along the coast, including Cemlyn North Wales Wildlife Trust Reserve, Traeth Ynys y Fydlyn, and Traeth Porth Wen Beach and the ruins of Porth Wen Brick Works.

Spend sunny days upon the sandy and pebbled shores of Cemaes Main Beach where you can take to the water in kayaks or on paddle boards or head to Caffi Beach to sample amazing ice cream, which is a must by the sea, or delicious wood-fired pizzas!

Holyhead is a scenic drive away and offers a lovely harbour front, a marina and a host of shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy, along with a port from which you can catch a ferry to Dublin.

There are also a plethora of circular walking paths directly from Y Caban as well as the Coastal Path, making this a haven for keen ramblers.

Take off into mainland Wales and see the scenic splendour of the Snowdonia National Park, uncover the beautiful Llyn Peninsula or enjoy the hustle and bustle of Llandudno.

Expect all this and much more whilst staying at Y Caban.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
