Our dogs loved the garden and we loved the hot tub! Had an exciting evening when the power went off. Michelle was there straight away with extra wood for the fire and torches for the dark. Scottish power were there to fix the fault within a few hours. Thank you Michelle for being there promptly and making sure we were all ok. Well maintained, clean and tastefully decorated property with a caring owner close by. Thank you â¤ï¸

.. Impressive house that just goes on and on, it's definitely a lot bigger on the inside than the photos show! There were only 4 of us staying but it does sleep 10. But you need to know that it would comfortably sleep 10!! No fold out bed or make do's! If 10 people were staying there, you would all get a nice room that is private. Also, the kitchen and the lounge easily fit 10 people. So you can all be together or have some time on your own. The kitchen and lounge are adjoined and open plan, but again you could use the lounge and kitchen for different activities without disturbing the other. Great features in the kitchen like the 10 seater table, the American style fridge freezer (not to mention the bottle of Prosecco and the bags of ice , so plenty of room for all your fresh and frozen food shopping (and adult drinks!) Enough pots, pans, glasses etc for everyone!! Dishwasher, double oven, hob, kettle, toaster and coffee machine with all the necessary provided, oh and milk in the fridge and... a delicious locally made cake!! Bathrooms: A full shower room with a loo off the utility room (with washing machine!) A bath and shower room with separate toilet on the ground floor and a Guest toilet on the first floor. So in total, 3 toilets, 1 bath and 2 showers. And if that wasn't enough... Hotel quality towels! Bedrooms: 1 king size and a bunkbed bedroom on the ground. On the first floor was 1 king size, 1 double and 1 twin. They are all fantastic sized rooms and some with views to die for. (Make a dash and bagsy either of the King sized rooms for the best view) Again, Hotel quality bedding. Lovely, crisp and white! Outside: Parking for 4 cars would be a doddle. The rear enclosed garden was great for our dog as it was secure with fab views! And Ok for kids to run around in. The hot tub is in the rear garden with plenty of outdoor lighting. The hot tub was a great bonus and after a hard day sightseeing... jump in the tub and watch the sunset! Great to find that there was plenty of plastic glasses and plates etc for use outside. Safety 1st! Oh and we took our own towels to use for the hot tub. I wouldn't want to use the bathroom towels outside! There is a Large Gas BBQ but we didn't use it. Fab that you can bring your well behaved dog along with you. treats, blankets and metal bowls all provided. (I mentioned the bowls are metal, my dog hates metal, but no biggie to buy new bowls from Home Bargains in Llangefni, where there are all the usual big supermarkets to get your shopping) We used the blankets to cover the sofas, as requested, because of dog hairs which is fair enough. I would say that if your dog was an escape artist or likes to jump walls, the walls are not particularly high and it would be something to consider with your dog. (Although, I would of liked to jump over the wall to explore the fields, the lake and Pary's Mountain)! Even though this house is just off the main road, you are down in a small dip and so you don't hear any noise from the road and closing the gates on the drive made it feel safe and secluded. Definitely follow the directions to the house that you will be given else you will miss her!!
