Riverside Cottage in Amlwch, Anglesey, is a well-received holiday rental praised for its cleanliness, cosy atmosphere, and thoughtful touches.

However, the low bedroom ceiling and noise from adjacent properties are mentioned as potential drawbacks for some visitors.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage is consistently described as very clean, with several guests highlighting its spotless condition. There was a single mention of a sofa with a dog smell and crumbs, but this seems to be an isolated incident rather than a common concern.
The location is generally appreciated for its peaceful village setting and proximity to local amenities like a pub, shop, and cafe. It is also within driving distance of tourist spots and beaches. Some guests found it more remote than expected, which could be a positive or negative depending on personal preferences.
Comfort is highly rated, with many guests finding the bed extremely comfortable and the cottage cosy. However, the low ceiling in the bedroom and steep stairs are repeatedly mentioned as discomforts, particularly for taller individuals or those with mobility issues.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-catered kitchen and thoughtful pet provisions. However, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as a dripping pipe, a leak in the lounge, and noise from upstairs neighbours. These recurring comments suggest room for improvement in maintenance.
Guests often mention thoughtful gestures such as a welcome gift and provisions for dogs. While these are appreciated, it is important to note that such extras are subject to change and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Nice and clean lovely and warm when you have the log burner going. Myself and Cooper my dog had 4 nights there. Lovely beaches . The only thing was well two things. A better shower would be great and the sofa was very low and very uncomfortable. The bed was very comfortable. Apart from that Anglesey is a lovely place .

Spacious, bright lounge opening on to a patio garden which was plenty big enough for our two cocker spaniels, after a day of exploring Anglesey. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. Little tip, the description of the bedroom is very accurate so after banging my head we had the pillows at the bottom of the bed, worked a treat

Everything was provided including lovely extras such as prosecco and chocolates. We would definitely recommend this property to our friends but not if they had any mobility problems as the stairs to the bedroom are quite steep. The closeness to the friendly village pub is a bonus.
