Guests say
Guests generally appreciate the cottage's cleanliness, peaceful location, and friendly owners. The property is well-regarded for its beautiful gardens, views, and dog-friendly amenities. While some guests mention minor maintenance issues and a desire for more lounge comfort, the overall experience is positive, with many expressing a wish to return.
The cottage receives high praise for its cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being spotless and well-maintained. Only one review cited a need for a wipe down, which seems an outlier.
The location is celebrated for its tranquillity and centrality on Anglesey, ideal for exploring the island. The peaceful setting with pretty gardens and wildlife adds to the charm.
Comfort is generally well-received, with mentions of a comfortable bed and lounge area. However, some guests felt the lounge could be improved with additional seating and a coffee table.
Facilities are considered excellent, with a well-equipped kitchen and secure garden. Some maintenance issues like light bulbs and heating were noted, but the response to issues was prompt.
While the reviews reflect a positive experience with the owners and mention a welcome pack, there is no consistent mention of gifts to assess the thoughtfulness reliably. Therefore, a score cannot be provided, and guests should note that gifts are not guaranteed.

3, The Dairy) and once again, the quality of the accommodation was absolutely superb! I can't fault the farm, the location and the hosts who are just extremely helpful whenever you need them. Many thanks Claire and will definitely be back in 2025!

The property was clean, very well equipped, super fast Wi-Fi, exceptionally comfortable king size bed, one of the best showers we have used, we could not ask for more. The fully enclosed garden was perfect for us and our two little dogs to relax in after a morning exploring. Nos 4 the Shippon was perfectly situated for our days out and we found the owners so friendly and helpful, please thank the owners Dad who although busy always found time to chat. The highlight for us was the low light pollution and sitting outside at night on the recliners staring at literally thousands of stars was truly a magical experience. We were so sorry to leave and hope to return in 2025. Many thanks to all. Lars and Cindy.
