The owners are so kind and nothing is too much trouble,It's just so peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed the log burner and the hot tub after i cooked a lovely meal in the well equipped kitchen. the nearby shops have everything you need lots of places to visit, our favourites are Beaumaris, Rhosneigr, plas newydd house. we brought our dog so many places to walk we all had a great week. Next time we will come in the summer and see what Anglesey looks like then.
