Four well-appointed bedrooms are on offer, including a ground-floor double for convenience, followed by three doubles on the first floor, one complete with a handy en-suite shower room. Awaken to a refreshing shower in the sleek, ground-floor shower room, or a soak in the bathroom, before enjoying a coffee in the sunroom.

However that being said the people in before us had caused damage in the main bathroom meaning we could not use it for the duration of our stay. We were advised by the owner this would be resolved on the Sunday or Monday. The handyman arrived the day before we left on the Friday at an inconvenient time, we therefore advised him to come back the following day as we were checking out. Upon arrival the garden was full of dog poo and poorly maintained and the cleaning of the property was very poor with food and sweets, dead bugs etc underneath sofas and beds. I contacted Sykes on numerous occasions to enquire whether the bathroom was going to be fixed and heard nothing back. We provided photographs and told them about the poor standard of cleaning, overgrown garden, problems with EV charger etc. Ultimately we booked this property as it had 3 bathrooms, EV charger, hot tub etc, however we couldnât use the facilities we required and paid for. Things happen, Needless to say we would not recommend.

It was very well equipped and surprisingly spacious. To be honest we could not fault the property and we would certainly recommend it to anyone wanting to stay in Cemaes.

The house was gorgeous, ideal for a weekend of catching up and chilling. Caemes Bay is beautiful and ideal for exploring round the costal paths. We would definitely recommend this house.
