“Loved Our holiday cottage tucked nicely out of the way but only a short walk from the beach .”

Fantastic wildlife.

Fantastic wildlife. We found the Sykes live chat very helpful when we needed help to put the heating on. The owner of the cottage was contacted Who intern contacted us immediately and resolved our problem couldn’t have been more helpful. We enjoyed our stay so much at this cottage we have rebooked for the beginning of next year. When the tide is out it’s a very special walk across the bay to the boathouse

“We had a power cut for a full day whilst we were there.”

We spoke to a neighbour and were told that all property owners had been notified that the power would be off on that day from 9.00 m to 4.30pm. Unfortunately on that particular day we had arranged for friends to visit us for a meal. This had to be cancelled and we ate out. We couldn't shower or even make a cup of tea as the gas ignition wouldn't work and we needed to go into Pentraeth to buy a box of matches as there were none in the house. The owner of the property apologised via Sykes but he said that he had no prior knowledge of the cut. The fact is that everybody was informed even if it didn't get through to the owner. I asked for compensation of £50. In the end after negotiation through Sykes, I got £25 which I think is a paltry amount for a whole day (and food as well) spoiled. Ultimately somebody was responsible - where does the buck stop. All of that said, we did enjoy the rest of our holiday and it is a lovely house in a beautiful area
“Our only criticism would be that we didn't feel Isfryn really catered for six adults with the smallest bedroom not being very comfortable for 2 of us and not enough variety of crockery for six people dining in i.”

E. serving dishes etc but very happy otherwise with the spaciousness of the property and the fabulous location and views. The sunsets were something else!

We are really happy that you enjoyed your stay at Isfryn, we hope to see you back on Anglesey soon!

“The house was all we needed it to be.”

It was safe for the children, clean and comfortable. The location was great as it was near to the beach and other locations suitable and within driving distance for the children. Wherever we went everyone was so friendly and helpful. Anglesey we'll be back!

“The cottage was warm and comfortable and we had a lovely time with the whole family.”

However, I would say that this is not a house for 6 people - it's a house for 4 adults and 2 children! The twin-bedded room was deceptive in the photograph and was very much smaller than we anticipated. There was also nowhere to put clothes apart from a rather wobbly cheap unit of 3 small shelves with canvas cover over the top. We also had a problem opening the key safe as the 4th button of the key code would not work. In the end, after struggling, we managed to open it by pressing all 4 buttons at the same time, but this took two people to open it! It definitely needs replacing. The only other thing that would stop us coming here again was the access road. The instructions said a stony track! They did not say it was a very rough track full of pot-holes and made getting up and down to the cottage difficult, unless you were in a 4x4! We scraped the bottom of our cars on several occasions despite driving carefully and trying to keep one set of wheels on the raised grass bit in the middle!!

Road was unbarerable to far off the beaten track , to get access to the key was a task very very difficult task ,same putting it back again , other than that the cottage was nice and the appliances where spot on

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We will contact the owners and let them know that the key safe may be getting a little stiff. Owner relations

“Lovely house spacious and well equipped.”

Lovely views.

“Location , quiet with great views ...”

Location , quiet with great views base for activities walking, beach size layout facilities cleanlines would be 5 if not for : a) rough track to access, one car wide, so keep eyes open b) midges are prolific dawn / dusk which limits use of decking and garden specifically in evening
“A lovely well equipped and comfortable holiday home.”

Just some small niggles and a few extras would have made it 5 star. Beautiful views from the house and garden. An ideal location for exploring Anglesey and not too far to pop over to Gwynedd.

Lovely house but slightly remote as one of our party was recovering from leg surgery and their car could not go up the lane due to it being so steep and vehicle being low

“Lovely property.”

..great location
Graham Bennett

“Well equipped and clean with pretty views.”

The road could do with upgrading to smooth out the worst bumps and pot-holes to avoid the risk of vehicle damage.
Jennifer

“Property large very clean and well equipped.”

We were very surprised that the garden to such a property was not very big. Only has a front garden an half of that taken up by the parking suggest visitors take a four by four as the road to the property is a steep dirt track full of pot holes the sea views from the lounge are wonderful don't suggest you walk to the beach unless you have walking boots and are used to walking

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We are really happy that you enjoyed your stay at Isfryn, we hope to see you back in North Wales soon!

About the location

PENTRAETH

Red Wharf Bay 2 miles; Benllech 3 miles; Beaumaris 6 miles.

Pentraeth is a small attractive village on the banks of the River Nodwydd on the north-east coast of Anglesey. It has a village church that dates back to the 12th century and is located between Llanddona beach and Red Wharf Bay, which has over 4.5 miles of sandy beach. Red Wharf Bay’s Welsh name is Traeth Coch (Red Beach) and the area is renowned for its glorious sunsets. The bay is very shallow and provides safe bathing, perfect for wonderful family fun, fishing and miles of stunning scenic walks. The large bay attracts a huge number of waterfowl and wading birds, including shell duck, grey plover, purple sandpipers, curlew, oystercatchers and dunlin. Only 6 miles away is the delightful medieval town of Beaumaris which boasts a 13th century moated castle, excellent shops, pubs, restaurants, bistros and museums, as well as a golf course and exciting pleasure boat and sea fishing trips. This is a great location on the east coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey, yet only six minutes from the Britannia Bridge to access the mainland.

Note: As with many of our rural properties, access is by a track, which can be rough in places
