Floor boards very creaky, but you get used to it after a while, there was no bottle opener in the draw which wasnât good for 1st night as all the drinks we brought required an opener, in the manual it stated to put bins out Tuesday morning to be emptied, they was put out before 8 oâclock at end of the drive and wasnât emptied, so our bins were very full at the end of our stay, so I donât know how the next family would get rid of their rubbish. We also had problems with flies downstairs, there was fly spray to use but there was more flies coming in, bit of a pain when we was trying to prepare food, would definitely recommend this place to stay, would return in the future, just hope the flies donât though x

Everything we needed except for a bottle opener. The floors are very noisy and squeaky but as there was only two of us we coped. We didn't go downstairs or go into the garden. We were able to have breakfast on the balcony. We bought the light weight chairs inside when the wind really picked up. We visited Cemaes bay as Children for many years and now come as adults. We loved the views this lovely house gave us.

Beautiful home well thought out. First impression amazing just needs little tweaks. Bedrooms/bathrooms other than being cold (heating not on) plug in heater ok but yea cold modern well thought out lovely rooms. Living room cold heating only seemed to go up to 18.5 but log fire very easy to use and adequate to heat the large living area. Washroom on 1st floor pink loo n sink never look clean white suite would lift that little washroom immensely. Kitchen/dining area ok. Could not get tv to work. Overall yes lots of stairs and cold but will definitely be back definitely recommend. Photos and description needs updating and as review in August says ?not that dog friendly. We always take our own throws and covers as out little dog does sit with us on the furniture.
