An animal (mainly red squirrels) and bird (All types) lovers paradise. Everything you need in the cabin. Owners there when you need them and leave you alone when you dont. But most of all the daily visits from the adorable Welsh sheep dog Jess. We fell in love with her. Highly recommended. Stayed Sep/oct 2024

The owner was lovely and it was very easy to check in. Very peaceful and lovely location ideal to get around the island. spotlessly clean too. Was so quite at night and in the mornings that we were tempted to sleep in. We did have a problem with the shower and this was fixed immediately. The shower was nice and hot too and quite powerful. Well equipped has everything you need, even some games and jigsaws which we all had fun doing in the evenings instead of watching TV on holiday. Although the weather wasnât amazing this summer the cabin was very warm and snug and the veranda was an added bonus for all our boots as it was under cover and lots of room for beach stuff etc. The home made bread and afternoon tea was a lovely surprise. We ate in most nights and there was a freezer and washing room too in an out house with airer which was great for drying our beach stuff. We visited Aberffraw beach and Rhosneigr (good place to park is by the Oyster Catcher). I also recommend a visit to the old copper mine/quarry on the Island â amazing and free too (Parys Mountain)
