“We were thrilled with the location of this property, it is the reason we came, generally we felt the property was a little tired, the cushion on the sofa had a hole in with the inner coming out, quite a few items of the crockery were chipped or cracked, on the positive the extent of utensils was fantastic, everything we needed was available, brilliant to have a washing machine, this was used a few times.”

We had an amazing holiday with fab weather, we would use Menai holidays again so please see our remarks as constructive criticism. Many thanks.

“I currently have an official complaint open about the fact we had a building site next door.”

- Mr De Mouilpied, July 2019
“We have stayed here several times and have booked again for later this year.”

We always have a great holiday in this lovely cottage with its fantastic outlook. Highly recommended.

- Mr Jones, June 2019
“We only had one issue - during the week days building of new houses was taking place right next to our rental.”

This spoilt our full enjoyment of the holiday. It would have been good to have been advised of this ahead of us booking/or several months before going.

- Mrs Bytheway, June 2019
“Lovely - redecorated since we last stayed and looking really nice.”

- D Dodd,
“Superb location.”

Excellent facilities. A home from home with the added bonus of being 2 minutes walk from the beach, and 10 minutes from Rhosneigr village.

“We have stayed here before when we rated it higher but it is showing signs of a lack of care and attention which’s expected for a property in that price range.”

“The property was well equipped and furnished to a high standard and in a fabulous location however there were three photos and high quality rattan garden furniture but instead there was a wooden picnic table therefore not as described.”

The cleanliness was poor, inside windows with handprints over them, mushroom growing in the upstairs shower. Toilet roll holder fell off upon arrival, not fixed to wall. Couldn't open most Windows and door locks difficult. No welcome items so was no milk or coffee for your arrival. Garden full of weeds and very unkept compared to other properties in the development. Such a shame, won't be booking this property again.

- Tracey Bennett,
“The cottage was in a prime location and fully equipt, it was warm but had difficulty in working thermostat so it got too hot!”

The cottage could do with a deep clean and some TLC, ensuite bathroom smelt awfully of drains and shower had hair from previous guests in. Main bathroom the bath was grimey ! Difficulty in opening Windows and balcony door in main bedroom. Would I book again - no probably not at this cottage but would at Menai holidays!

“The cottage was in a wonderful position over looking the sea and was very comfortable.”

Brilliant place to have a family get together. Lots of fun on the beach it was perfect..

“Cowrie cottage has excellent facilities and provided us with a home from home experience.”

We were looking forward to lighting the log fire but on the first night it filled the room with smoke so we were most reluctant to try it again. It seems the glass cover on the door released plumes of smoke making the atmosphere in the room very smoky. We also encountered a leak under the sink in the kitchen on the 6th day, it appeared to be an ongoing problem as a rag was bound round the pipe and kitchen roll already positioned to mop up any spills. We mopped up the water and carried on, as it didn’t look serious.

- Jane Stevens,
“Cowrie Cottage was amazing and we loved every minute of staying in this delightful property.”

The location was stunning it was great to be able to walk down to the beach every morning and look at the view in the evening, far better than watching the TV. Bedrooms were fab especially the master with the balcony and bathroom made us feel very decandent. A delightful property that we will certainly return to.

- Jayne Chapman,
“PlentY of room with excellent facilities good shower rooms plenty of hot water.”

Only suggestion I could make is installation of handrails would be extremely helpful in both showers?

- Barry Smith,
“Fabulous location!”

A few things need some maintenance to make it perfection!

The property

Overlooking the bay at Rhosneigr, Cowrie Cottage the perfect place to relax and watch the sunset from the spacious living area, or enjoy your morning cuppa on the balcony of the master bedroom - bliss! "I have a soft spot for the name and for the house - in a fabulous location where you can walk down to the beach and look for Cowries." The beaches at Rhosneigr are great for families.

They are clean and safe with lovely rock pools, good for making sand castles and a haven for cowrie hunters.

There's a fantastic selection of water sports, or you can just potter about and catch a mackerel. The village centre is a five-minute walk away, with good eating places.

Don't miss the great shop, Gecko, and their gift shop opposite.

This is a really fab holiday house for exploring this corner of North Wales.
