Guests say

The Windmill in Holyhead is a beautifully restored, quirky property that offers a peaceful and memorable stay. Guests have praised its cleanliness, comfortable and cosy atmosphere, and the well-equipped facilities. The unique experience of staying in a windmill and the surrounding wildlife are highlights, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking tranquillity and a touch of nature.

Guests have described the property as extremely clean and well-presented, indicating high standards of cleanliness.

The Windmill is appreciated for its lovely, peaceful location, ideal for a nature-soaked retreat, though it requires transport for access to shops and attractions.

The property is consistently described as comfortable and cosy, although some guests found the beds quite soft, which may not suit everyone's preference.

The Windmill is well-equipped, but some items may need replacing, and a few areas are looking tired, suggesting room for improvement in maintenance.

While guests have had memorable stays, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness, so this score cannot be provided.

Situated in a quiet, rural part of Anglesey, this cluster of detached holiday properties are located at Melin Newydd windmill, which has been featured on Channel 4’s ’Restoration Man’ with George Clarke. The Windmill (ref 29567) has a lovely living area on the ground floor and a double bedroom on each of the first and second floors, from where a steep, space saver staircase leads up to a third floor living room with a balcony and fabulous views out over the surrounding countryside. Full of original features oozing character, The Windmill has been the subject of a simply stunning restoration, which makes this a cosy and quirky place to stay. Owl Cottage (ref 29569) features a conservatory living room, with picture windows opening to the fields, and two gallery bedrooms, whilst The Top Barn (ref 29568) is another barn conversion with lots of original features. These three properties are just a 10-minute drive from the delightful sandy beach at Rhosneigr - indeed, with 125 miles of coastline on the Isle of Anglesey you’re never far away from a beach or rocky cove to explore. A short distance away is the rspb reserve at South Stack near Holyhead, whilst children will love Foel Farm Park or Anglesey Sea Zoo at Brynsiencyn. The NT mansion of Plas Newydd is well worth a visit, as is pretty Beaumaris with its castle, whilst the mountains of Snowdonia can be easily reached back on the mainland. Beach 5 miles.
