The property is consistently described as spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with several reviews highlighting its cleanliness. This suggests a high standard of hygiene and care.
The location is praised for its peacefulness and rural charm, with easy access to local attractions and amenities. However, some guests note the narrow approach roads and the need for a car due to the rural setting.
Guests find the property very comfortable, with high-quality furnishings and a cosy ambience. The presence of underfloor heating and adjustable sofas adds to the comfort, although a few guests mention the double beds could be larger.
The property boasts high-end appliances, thoughtful layout, and additional features like Netflix access. While the facilities are generally excellent, the repeated suggestion for an additional shower indicates room for improvement.

Beaumaris is a well-known historic town on Anglesey's Isle of Anglesey, located on the Menai Strait and facing the Snowdonia Mountain range, which makes for a spectacular dawn. It is also recognised as a major yachting centre, with its mediaeval castle (now a World Heritage site) dating back to Edward I's reign and its Victorian pier, jail, and courthouse.

Only minor issue was the fact there was only one shower. Narrow roads on the approach too and from the cottage could be a bit tricky at times. Double beds were on small side but not an issue for us as not booked for full capacity - just to highlight for others considering. Got to meet Tony in the orchard and pinch and apple or two

some decoration needs, Mattresses on double beds not particularly comfortable and pillows in need of changing. Warm and spacious, sufficient equipment well appointed bathrooms and kitchen, large tv. Very narrow roads sometimes with long distances between passing areas. Not within walking distance of any amenities. Red Wharf Bay excellent beach.

Very pleased and accurate pictures / description on website. Owner was helpful when the hot water failed on 2 days. Cottage is well presented and kitted out. Loved the recliner sofa. Minor issues such as the top bedroom door not being able to fully close and also very warm at night compared to lower bedrooms. Garden is okay. No sun in evening and a little unloved. Anglesey is beautiful especially Beaumaris. None of the above would prevent us recommending or staying again.
