“We had a super holiday in this lovely holiday house, plenty of space for all members of the family to spread out and enjoy time together or alone.”

The garden was spacious and fully enclosed so the dogs had a great time too. The house is really well appointed and has everything you need, and the delicious cake and provision of tea and milk was a welcome surprise. We enjoyed the beautiful beaches just a short walk from the house, great for the dogs and the younger members of the family, and exploring nearby Moelfre was a delight.

“Brilliant home to stay in.”

Kitchen really well equipped. Beautiful views from the house and garden. We had a fantastic time and would definitely book again.

- Ms Hogg, August 2020
“First visit to anglesey and location was ideal with lovely walks to beaches and along coast.”

House had everything we needed

- Mrs Callaghan, July 2020
“The House exceeded expectations for such a price.”

Cleanliness is always our priority over EVERYTHING else. For such a big place, hats off to the owners for ensuring this. We went with no great expectations, especially as it was February in the heart of storm Ciera. Had the best time ever in this rural gem. Thank you Mr Smith

- Mr Smith, February 2020
“We have just returned from a 3 day family holiday.”

The place it's self is lovely, the only thing which let it down is the cleanliness. A bra, men's trousers and jumper were found, light shades were thick with dust and under tables clearly hadn't been cleaned for some time. I would recommend some outside lighting particualry at this time of year as we arrived at 5pm and it was totally dark.

- Miss Hancock, November 2019

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. The owner has since attended to the house to have a meeting with the housekeepers to go over the cleaning guide. They have also installed additional lighting outside the property to improve visibility for guests arriving after dark. Owner relations
“The house was beautiful, really stunning.”

The location was amazing and it was lovely and clean. I've had to give some negative feedback unfortunately though as we really struggled to have any hot water. None of us managed to have a shower during our entire stay. I know it doesn't have mains gas and I understand the reasons for this. We did follow the instructions to get hot water but all that happened was it became luke warm for about a minute or so. This somewhat spoiled our enjoyment of an otherwise perfect getaway. If there was assurances that this issue was resolved for future customers I'd have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to other people as, like I say, beautiful property and stunning location. I feel like the owners have thought of everything else in a really considerate manner and I would have loved to give all perfect feedback. This was the only thing that let it down

- Mr Woodrow, November 2019

"We really appreciate the lovely comments about our property. We're glad our efforts to make our property enjoyable and comfortable are appreciated. Consequently we're very upset to learn that you had no hot water. In the literature within the property we encourage guests to contact us to resolve any issues such as this and there were a number of ways we could have resolved the issue for you. We're glad that otherwise you managed to enjoy your stay. " Owner relations
“Great house for a group or large family.”

Fantastic views over the fields to the sea.Good location for walks or a leisurely stroll on an isolated beach.

- Mr Lee, October 2019
“We went to Ty Arwen as a family to celebrate a Birthday.”

The house was wonderful - extremely comfortable, clean and very well equipped it had those added touches that made the difference. Brilliant location to the nearby beaches a short walk. Missing that incredible view to wake up to each morning! Would recommend the house - an absolute gem of a place to stay

- Mrs Powell, September 2019
“Ty Arwen proved to be an ideal holiday home for our family of three generations.”

The provision of bedrooms and bath/wet rooms on both floors provide some useful separation for guests. The house is as stylish and colourful as the agency photographs suggest. The kitchen is well equipped and the long dining table gives plenty of space for everyone. For us, one of the best features is the wrap around garden. There are panaramic views from the back of the surrounding countryside, reaching to the beach and beyond from one corner. We were amazed at the large numbers of butterflies seen in the front garden. The house provided every comfort you could want. The only slightly negative comment is that the house was very warm and could not be altered by ourselves, only by remote control by the owners. However, we could have made contact with the owners to remedy this.

- Mrs Simnett, August 2019
“Ty Arwen is a beautiful house located just 15 minute walk from Lligwy Beach.”

The pictures very accurately represent this modern, well equipped and comfortable holiday home. We had a wonderful holiday and hope to return to Ty Arwen next year.

- Mrs Vince, August 2019
“Pretty location.”

Within walking distance from the beach along single track road. Everything nice and clean. The en-suite in the master bedroom shower dripped and grout in the tiles needed re-grouting. It would have been nice to have some loungers in the garden to relax on. My only real complaint if any was I did request that the beds in the fish room be made up into 2 singles and they were not, we had to go looking for bedding and make them up ourselves.

- Ms Ratcliffe, August 2019

Response from owners: We are very pleased to hear you had a great holiday, but were sorry to hear the room was not set up as specified, and have fed this back to our housekeeping team. As the linen is kept securely stored we would have happily asked the housekeeper to come back out to change it for you if we’d known. We have requested a plumber attend to look at the issues in the en-suite. We have ordered some deck chairs following the previous suggestion to do so, it’s always great to find out what people have missed having as it means we can look into supplying it, so thank you.

“While the cottage was in a wonderful location and great layout.”

The garden is excellent and private - shame there was no umbrella with patio set. Unfortunately, it was the finer details that need addressing. The mattresses in two rooms were not comfortable (ensuite and downstairs.) The shower tiling needs a thorough clean in the master ensuite. The microwave is in an unsuitable place. We stayed in the hottest week and the bathroom radiators were on. Fans should be available in the summer months without having to ask for them. It is a very warm house and while it's great in the Winter, you have no individual control yourself. In general, the cottage needs some minor maintenance.

- Mrs Murphy, July 2019

Owner's response: Thank you for taking the time to feedback, we are sorry the house did not meet your expectations. We have noted and sought to remedy many of the points you raise where at all possible. We really want our guests to enjoy their holiday and work hard to keep the house in great order. Owner relations
“We had a fantastic week, this was our first time at Ty Arwen, but we've been to Lligwy twice before having stayed across the bay at Tyn Lon.”

This house is just as described, a wonderful house, 3 generations and our dog could share. A couple of things could help make it even better; some more garden furniture to be able to enjoy the great garden. Also the "Fish" room is a great room downstairs but lacks storage when used as a bedroom. Having this room and a downstairs wet room meant we could take our elderly parents, they would have benefitted from a grab rail in the wet room (we tried suction ones but they didn't work because of the textured tiles). These issues are meant as feedback and didn't detract from our enjoyment of our stay at Ty Arwen. Our only problem now is deciding who to invite to share it with next time!

- Mr Reed, July 2019
“This is our 2nd stay at Ty Arwen and would definitely recommend it as a great location to enjoy Anglesey.”

The house is really spacious and comfortable. Well located with an easy 5 minute drive to the beach and shops / restaurants all within 10 minutes. The beds are really comfortable and bedrooms large so certainly feels relaxing to stay here. The kitchen is well stocked if you choose to eat in and with 3 bathrooms it is ideal for a group or large family. Only suggestions would be it could do with more comfortable outside furniture and a BBQ to make the most of the fantastic garden more.

- Mr Lloyd, July 2019
“The booking was straight forward.”

When we contacted the owner with a question they responded immediately. The house was delightful both inside and outside, with sitting out areas to enable us to eat breakfast in the morning sun and dinner in the evening sun at the other side of the house. There was ample parking for 3 cars and large lawns where the children played. Tyi Arwen is well situated close to Lligwy beach and with easy access to shops and other beaches. A really excellent holiday!

- Mrs Loughlin, June 2019
“Such a lovely house in a wonderful position.”

Had great weather too which enabled us to enjoy the garden and the views. We loved the area and the walks to the beaches, which are fabulous. A great place to chill and recharge our batteries. We will be back!

- Mrs Watson, June 2019
“A short stay in a beautiful part of Anglesey.”

The house was comfortable, well equipped and has spectacular views.

- Ms Atkinson, May 2019
“Fantastic cottage, plenty of space and really well furnished with great location for our favourite beach”

“Really nice, quiet, lots of space and everything you may require, utensils a plenty.”

- Cristie Davies,
“Ty Arwen is a great place to stay, in a fabulous location with great views.”

Very thoughtful to provide milk, biscuits and bara brith on arrival - much appreciated! Modern décor, but still feels cosy. The well equipped kitchen had everything we needed. Nice to have ample crockery and glasses! Bedrooms are stylish, comfortable and thoughtfully designed - love the individual themes, which made this cottage feel more of a home than a holiday rental. Would love to return in the summer to make the most of the great outdoor space - so nice to provide sitting areas at both side of the house. Late night star gazing was worth getting chilly for. We were a group of adults, but the cottage would be great for families too. Nice to have a wide selection of DVDs available to watch. Highly recommend this cottage!

- V Owen,
“Just look at the pictures and location.”

- Michael Hodson,
“Ty Arwen offers everything you could want in a family/ larger group holiday home.”

It is very comfortable and well equipped. The outdoor space is good for dogs and their human friends and the location is an ideal base for walks and exploring the island.

- ,
“Excellent house in lovely location, appreciated spaciousness for a family event.”

Some issues about the in-house information- directions about rubbish and recycling need updating plus other details. Microwave in a very unhelpful place and without instructions. Key safe is difficult to use and some evidence of wear and tear, hinges needing oiling, soap dispensers need replacing.

- ,
“Beautiful location and well appointed house, though a certain lack of storage in a room used as a bedroom for us, though it can be an alternative living room if numbers permit.”

Just found a certain lack in preparation between lets, a certain item of intimate male clothing left in a wardrobe! Not very pleasant to find!

- Christopher Langley,
“Lovely home from home, modern, clean, tidy and very spacious.”

Will definitely be going back to this place.

- Joanna Jackson,
“Our family of three generations stayed at this lovely house last week.”

We miss the view from the kitchen already! Overall the property was great. Good off road parking for our 3 cars. Plenty of living space for all the family and the dog! The amount of bathrooms/loos were a bonus with 8 people wanting to get ready at the same time. The kitchen was superbly equipped (my own frying pans stayed in the car boot!) with plenty of glasses, cutlery and crockery for everyone. I have put 5 stars as it is more than a 4, however it’s really a 4.5 score as there were a few very minor things that could be improved, if we were being really critical. The wardrobe space in some rooms could have been better. The quality of the mattress in the ground floor double could be improved. The grill pan hadn’t been cleaned so that was a job for grandad before we made breakfast! Hopefully this was an oversight by the cleaners. The byfold doors need a bit of lubrication too! I wouldn’t let these minor things put me off booking again but it’s best to give fair and honest feedback. We would have booked this again for next year, but my 6’3” 17 yr old nephew struggled with a single bed and sharing with his teenage sister at times! In summary, a wonderful house with everything you want in a home to cater for a family holiday.

“Ty Arwen was a lovely house which suited our needs.”

Exactly as per the photos. Plenty of bathrooms which meant no fight for the facilties. A stock of dvds and books for people to access also. Kitchen was extremely well stocked. Only 4 stars as grass was quite long which meant in late Sept it stayed wet for quite a long time. Garden is also not 100% secure. Microwave had seen better days and failed on us but these were minor things. Would definitely stay there again!

- ,
“Microwave didn't work, dishwasher buttons worn out, place a bit hot (and no instructions) , no proper instructions about waste disposal.”

Otherwise, a fab place

- Loraine Moore,
“Lovely house.”

Modern yet cosy and equipped with everything you could need. We were an extended family of 6 adults, 2 toddlers and 2 dogs and there was more than enough room for us. We would definitely go back.

“Ty Arwen is a lovely house and clearly very well cared for.”

We stayed there for a week at the end of October 2018. We love Anglesea and had visited several times. This house made it even better. Beautifully located with stunning views and a short walk to the sea and miles of sandy beach. Fishing lake down the lane and plenty more fishing lakes nearby as well as the ocean. The house is spacious for we four adults and 3 children and ideal for the dog with its enclosed garden. The house is very well equipped and comfortable throughout with all you need for a great holiday including a good selection of books and DVD's. The house is very warm in chilly weather having been very well designed. Great wood burning stove for cold evenings. Well located for easy access across the island as nowhere is very far. Ample parking. Highly recommended.

The property

Ty Arwen is a beautiful holiday house, on the east coast of Anglesey, set in private landscaped gardens with glorious views of Lligwy Bay, towards the Great Orme and the magnificent mountains of Snowdonia beyond.

The lovely beach at Lligwy is less than a mile away, and the little known Traeth yr Ora, which is accessible only by foot and retains a sense of isolation and uniqueness, is also close by. "What a fabulous view to wake up to each morning.

A beautiful, carefully throughtout home finished to a high standard with love and care!" The design of Ty Arwen, combined with its light and airy position and coastal location, makes it the perfect property for a holiday whatever the season.

In the warm summer months, after a hard day on the beach, you can open up the patio doors and enjoy a glass of wine out on the rear decking or front patio. In the winter, you can cosy up in the spacious lounge with a fire roaring, and waste hours taking in the dramatic sea and mountain views. Ty Arwen incorporates many environmentally sound building techniques.

The quality of the furnishings perfectly complements the way in which the property is finished, with high quality tiled, laminate and oak floors, underfloor heating, triple glazing and high levels of insulation.
