Biscuits, milk etc laid out on arrival. Key collection easy to follow. Fantastic view over the harbour and beach beyond. Some good walks around and about and lots of amenities in the village. Tried looking for paddle board and kayak hire but couldnât find anything though. Most activities/landmarks are a drive away. Frequent bus though. Asda delivery and Indian food delivery from Benllech tandoori found us easily.

Good parking availability. The village shop/post office is handy and well stocked for essentials. Village has great access to the road system making travel to attractions and scenic drives easy to follow. Found a hoodie in the drawer in the twin room - obviously the storage had not been checked between guests renting the apartment. Could do with some better pillows but this is just our opinion. Communal entrance clean. The view is amazing and the opportunity to open the doors is great. Well equipped, comfortable and clean. The kitchen is well equipped.
