The information sheet was excellent and easy to follow. The heating in the house was excellent and the bathroom facilities were excellent too. However, the oven needed cleaning both the main oven, grill and grill rack!!!!!! The fridge was a good asset but the freezer box had not been cleaned out and therefore full of ice!!!!!!! We also had to sweep out the back yard as that hadnât been touched. The house is a little tired and may need touching up in the near future? It was fine for our needs.

The views across the Menai Straights and into the mountains are incredible. The house is good value but a little 'tired' now. The lounge carpet is very worn, the games room has gone replaced by an empty room and one chair. There are no instructions to anything! No instructions for the heating, general rules of the property ( Eg bin collections ), the oven etc. Normally in properties there is a folder or file of need to know things and a note of welcome. There was nothing. Loads of DVDs but no DVD player. Some old brochures re exploring the locality. A lot dated back to 2016 which we recycled. We sorted the rest for future visitors. Definitely no welcome pack of even milk on arrival which is rare in all the properties we have used. We did have an emergency number sent by Sykes. We didn't need to use it but left a note in the property at the end of our stay commenting on things in general. We had a lovely January holiday with great weather. The property was ok, just not the usual standard we have experienced.

Radiator in main bedroom not working so room was cold and thermostat not easy to use- no instructions. Pillows in main bedroom really thin, but we too much. Bed was comfortable. Nice place to stay for a couple of days.
