The property generally appears clean, but several reviews mention the presence of pet fur and exterior untidiness. Some guests were satisfied with the cleanliness on arrival, while others noted areas for improvement.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach, estuary, and coastal paths. It is described as a quiet and peaceful setting, ideal for exploring Anglesey.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the heating efficient. However, some reviews suggest that the sofa and other furnishings could be more comfortable and that the main bedroom bed can be noisy.
The property is well-equipped with a good heating system, WiFi, and a SMART TV. Some guests suggest the kitchen utensils and pans need updating, and there are minor maintenance issues like squeaky doors and a scraping bedroom door.

Upon entering the property, you will be immediately dazzled by the contemporary, upcycled furnishings and artwork, thoughtfully created by the owner, in the open-plan living space. Make your way over to the sleek kitchen with its black fittings and rose-gold touches to rustle up a tasty meal for the family, to be enjoyed at the nearby dining table.

It is ideal for us as we have a dog and the proximity to the beach is great. We enjoyed our stay so much we have rebooked for next year. The only critisism I have is the cutlery and crockery. Both are just so cheap and there are so few of them. Oh and the teapot. Please change it for a conventional one.

The rest of the property was clean though. The extractor fan in the bathroom makes a terrible noise, so we didn't use that. Could do with an empty cupboard in the kitchen for groceries. Front door needs adjusting, as it sticks(noisy opening and closing because of this and were concerned about upsetting the neighbour)Despite these small problems the property was lovely overall. Beautiful views. Quite peaceful. Fantastic walks along the estuary to the beach. Handy local shop and cafe.
