Donât arrive in the dark like we did, youâll never find the parking, we ended up parking on the road opposite. Following day we parked around the back of the house but someone was in the allocated space so parked elsewhere and ended up with a note on the windscreen from the neighbour (we werenât blocking anyone or any gates) Lights in the games room didnât work and although Jayne was lovely when I contacted her, the suggestion of trip switches wasnât the fix and then we were going home so I felt there was no point sending anyone. The breakfast bar stools are a bit tired & tatty and thereâs a tatty childâs chair in the lounge. The lounge would benefit from some side tables to put drinks on as there was nowhere to put them. Altogether a nice enough house, we stay in Benllech regularly but never stayed here before.

It is light and bright and feels homely and comfortable. It is beautifully furnished with a nautical, seaside theme which we loved! We found everything we needed in the kitchen and were grateful for the supplies of tea and coffee, washing up liquid etc. The appliances are modern and there are good work services including a useful kitchen island. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the bedding smelt lovely and fresh. The view from the main bed room is fabulous and on a clear day you can see the sea at Benllech. The houseâs proximity to Benllech is a real bonus! The outside space is really well planned and furnished. It would be great to use on a warm, sunny day. The car parking space also makes life easy. Communication with Jayne, the owner was great. Thank you for a lovely stay, Jayne. We hope to come back to Arlan in the future.
