Beautiful views over the estuary and lovely walks over the coastal paths. The highlight was seeing the red squirrels while walking to Moelfre. Our grandchildren loved the beach and playing in the enclosed garden.

It is just perfect for us and our little dog. It is beautifully presented and equipped, comfortable and user-friendly. Except for one day, we had all our meals at home, and even invited some guests. Despite not being in our own home, it was easy and comfortable to prepare meals and clean up. Also a shout-out to the agent for the property, who dealt with a small infrastructure problem we had efficiently.
