The cottage is such good value for money, having full access to the lovely, clean, well kept petting farm. The facilities within the cottage where great, it just missed an ironing board and hairdryer....but not a big issue. The cottage is quite remote, so you do need to drive to everywhere, although there are 2 attractions in walking distance if you want a local day out, plus a lovely walk along the menai strait. The owners are on hand running the farm park if you have any questions and the chocolates from there shop are amazing! There are some lovely pubs and restaurants within 20 minutes serving great food. We would definitely recommend a stay here.
