Cosy, comfy, needs some maintenance attention at the end of the season. Nothing derogatory but coat of paint in rooms to freshen, carpets cleaned etc.. bedding needs updating. Very good location. Down stairs shower replaced with new on the first day. Weâve stayed here before and we would again. The garden needs a bit of maintenance to make it more inviting. On the whole we would recommend due to size and location. Sue the housekeeper couldnât do enough for us to make sure all was ready in time to arrive. Thanks Sue. We will be back next year

There was plenty of room both upstairs and down. The garden was sunny and pleasant. It was so good to be close to the beach and to all the facilities in Benlech too. The drive was tight to park a large car - but we managed . If the vegetation were cut back a bit more it would help . All in all it was a lovely week and I would certainly book again.
