The place is spotlessly clean and both the house & garden were bigger than they appeared in the pictures. Iâve stayed in places that claim to have a fully enclosed garden but my dog has managed to find an escape route. This garden is completely enclosed and with a 5 ft wall so no need to worry about your pooch. Thereâs everything you need to enjoy your stay & we were welcomed with some treats for us and the dog. If you like walks on beaches I can recommend Red Wharf Bay & Newborough beaches, Newborough is about 40 mins drive but well worth it. Would love to go back to the house when the weather is better so we can enjoy the garden.

The owners had thought of everything. Very spacious and dog friendly. The rear garden was very safe and secluded, ideal to let your dog out without worrying. Be prepared for lots of driving as Amlwch is very pretty but out in the sticks.
