“Given the current situation with Covid-19 and lockdown, I was very impressed with how easy + problem-free it was to amend our booking.”

As described, the cottage was in an amazing location and was well equipped and comfortable. However, it would benefit from some updating/refurbishment. The kitchen and bathrooms were cleaned to a very good standard. However, the carpets in some rooms were stained and had not been adequately vacuumed.

As described, the cottage was in an amazing location and was well equipped and comfortable. However, it would benefit from some updating/refurbishment. The kitchen and bathrooms were cleaned to a very good standard. However, the carpets in some rooms were stained and had not been adequately vacuumed. The downstairs shower room was disappointing as it was used as a general store room (vacuum cleaner, high chair, other items), and had not been cleaned. Despite this, we had a lovely holiday and are planning to return next year.

“We enjoyed our week away.”

.. the location was beautiful and we swam and walked every day.... a few comments to make though... for the money paid, the 'welcome pack' of six Welsh cakes (for a family of seven) was disappointing compared to other, much cheaper cottages we have stayed in, so too were the small, thin towels provided for use. Given that guests are coming in wet and windy weather, the cottage could really do with large doormats at the entrances to cope with wet boots coming in. The overly large TV would be better replaced with an extra sofa around the fire as two two-seaters for a cottage accommodating up to ten isn't enough.... a couple of maintenance points... the seal on the kitchen door allows water to pool inside in heavy rain and the sealant around the bathtub downstairs has half gone which will cause the owners expensive problems if guests use that shower (we avoided it).... a note for dog owners, the garden isn't secure, you need to supervise dogs in the garden as the wall to the beach is low and unfenced. Finally, we had an unfortunate run in with the neighbours living in a caravan after they took offence at being told to keep their dog under control after it had pooed in the cottage garden two days on the run, the man who came from the Menai maintenance team while we were there was lovely though, professional and sensible (the caravan owner wanted the cottage fence fixed but Menai decided it was a dog control issue as the fence wasn't damaged in any way)..... overall a pleasant, and much needed getaway, but could be improved, especially considering the price tag

“The cottage was extremely filthy and we spent two hours cleaning the property - we have taken photos which are time stamped and GPS tagged.”

We made a complaint to Sykes but unfortunately they never followed up. Pros: Great location - plenty of space ... Cons: Really dirty filth, the furnishings and interior are tired and the lack of follow up by Sykes re our complaints poor.

We are so sorry to hear that you felt it necessary to report some issues at Beach House. I understand that you did not wish anyone to return to make this right and we are still awaiting further details so that we can follow the matter up for you. Please do get in touch if you are having trouble sending this through. Owner relations

“Beautiful house but TLC needed”

Beautiful house and location but updating needed. Have been assured that improvements are imminent but I’d advise people to check these have been completed before booking.

“The beach house is a beautiful place to stay especially the views.”

We have stayed there 3 times now and I'm glad that after my last review I suggested they put gates up so it's a fully enclosed garden which they have done much safer for children and dogs.well done x

The property

Dryll-Y-Gro - formerly known as Trefadog Beach House - means 'crash of the waves on pebbles'.

The name perfectly captures the setting of this truly fantastic holiday house on the north west coast of Anglesey.When you conjure up images of the perfect family holiday, this is the house you would be in!Sea views, a big garden, a quiet, sandy beach just 30 yards from the door, and a very strong nautical theme throughout the house to remind you of your fantastic beach side location. The impressive beamed sitting room has comfortable sofas set around a large wood burner which will make winter breaks warmer.

There’s the benefit of a 50" LCD TV, too.

French doors open onto the garden. There is another sitting room at the far end of the house which has wonderful sea views through the big windows.The comfortable sofas in this room invite you to relax and soak up the views.

The kitchen is definitely the heart of this holiday house.There is a range cooker, a dishwasher and a large American fridge/freezer, and a dining table ideal to gather together round for meals, and there are views of Trefadog Bay and the Anglesey countryside. Next door to the kitchen there is a handy utility/shower room which perfect for washing sandy feet!

Downstairs are two double bedrooms and a bunk room.Two of the bedrooms have TVs.Upstairs are two bedrooms: a double room with sea views and a twin with countryside views.The upstairs bathroom has a bath, shower and loo.

A handy downstairs bathroom is located just off the bedrooms. The large lawned garden has a paved patio area and seating, and it's own gate leading straight on to the beach!

"Sea views & a large garden with a sandy beach 30 yards from the door.

A fun house with a nautical theme throughout." As soon as you come through the door you will want to explore!

I just love the detail of Trefadog Beach House - the coat stand that used to be a torpedo, all the maps and nautical pictures, the old World War II radio in the second sitting room, and the porthole doors.But don't let the old memorabilia deceive you - this house is very much in the 21st century!

With a large 50" LCD TV and broadband, thermostatically controlled rooms and an extremely well-equipped kitchen, you will want for nothing. Church Bay itself is a quiet little village with a choice of some lovely small beaches to visit nearby.
