    “On finaly getting into the cottage ( the key safe is very dificult to open) our disappointment was immediate the geneal condition of the cottage is very poor, scuffed and dirty paintwork and a musty odour was evident.”

    The refridgerator door was hanging loose and the oven above the main oven missing, a significant amount of crockery was chipped and unusable and there was no freezer as advertised. The decking was in very poor condition and presented several trip hazards. The mirror in the bathroom had a rusty frame and would not illuminate and the door onto the balcony was jammed and not lockable these are just some of the issues we came accross.

    The refridgerator door was hanging loose and the oven above the main oven missing, a significant amount of crockery was chipped and unusable and there was no freezer as advertised. The decking was in very poor condition and presented several trip hazards. The mirror in the bathroom had a rusty frame and would not illuminate and the door onto the balcony was jammed and not lockable these are just some of the issues we came accross. On our second night there we decided to light the wood burner, after a short time the room filled with smoke which highlighted a more dangerous issue THE POORLY POSITIONED SMOKE ALARM DID NOT OPERATE and there is no Carbon Monoxide alarm present which is a legal requirment. These matters were reported the next day to Michelle at Menai Holidays. On Tuesday the maintainance man Zebs arrived ,we pointed out the problem with the woodburner which was due to a broken door seal , he told us not to use the burner untill it was repaired. He also told us that the cottage had recently changed owners and had not had any repairs done for some time under the previous owner.No repairs were carried out by Zebs at that time. Due to these issues and the radiators in the bedrooms NOT WORKING, my son and his wife who had their baby and 6 year old with them decided not to stay any longer and left after 3 days. We also cut our break short due to being so disillusioned with the property. I can only summise that this property has not been inspected in a long time as it in no way represents the advertised pictures or description

The property

This lovely, four-bedroom holiday home, Cowrie Cottage, is located in the seaside community of Rhosneigr, a picturesque village on the Isle of Anglesey.

This magnificent property welcomes eight guests and their two well-behaved dogs for a relaxing coastal escape to one of North Wales's most sought-after holiday destinations, boasting off-road parking, stylishly-designed interiors, and a terrific position to amenities and a nearby beach.

As soon as you enter your new lodgings, you'll notice several fantastic living spaces, including a beautifully designed open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area complete with a table that seats six people, a sleek, wall-mounted Smart TV, and a woodburning stove that will keep you and your loved ones warm as you gather on the sofas to catch up on the day's events.

Take your festivities outside, where the dogs can play securely by the furnished terrace in the lawned garden whilst you raise a glass of wine to toast your holiday.

Four inviting bedrooms, including a double with accompanying en-suite shower, are ready to lull you to a well-earned sleep when the time comes.

Make the short trip into Rhosneigr proper if you can drag yourself away from your peaceful new accommodations to gain a better sense of your surroundings.

Treat the family to an ice cream at Chaplin's Ice Cream & Coffee Bar, sit down for a tasty meal at the pet-friendly Sandy Mount House, or even just take a peaceful stroll along the lush, golden sands of Traeth Crigyll.

If you want to make a day of it, take a car ride east into the mainland to explore some of what the Snowdonia National Park has to offer - roam the historical site of Gelert's Grave, become one with nature at Rhaeadr Y Graig Lwyd waterfall, or jump onboard a train ride at the Bala Lake Railway.

Make memories to last a lifetime by bringing your family to Cowrie Cottage.
