Ivy was an excellent place to stay, very comfortable and had everything needed. The accommodation is spacious and was easy to access. Situated with a view from the bedrooms of Red Bay, its ideal for getting to so many of the beautiful bays and views. There are few local facilities, but everything we needed was available when out and about for the days. Peaceful place to enjoy.

Absolutely stunning location, down the lanes and a very quiet area. There are no shops locally but we had a Tesco delivery on arrival.Ivy is set in a large building which has been made into several apartments. Our first impressions were great, Ivy is spacious, comfortable and clean. More than enough room for these adults, a teenager and 3 Cairn terriers. I absolutely loved the main bedroom and bed, I haven't slept as well in a long time. There are views from both bedrooms overlooking Red Wharf Bay which was a bonus. All in all a fabulous week spent at Ivy, fabulous value for money and a true home from home. We will definitely be booking again.

Lovely cottage which was spotlessly clean nice isolated location close to beautiful beach in Llanddona also close to the charming town of Beaumaris. My Daughter and young Granddaughters had a marvellous holiday . Only item that would have improved the otherwise well equipped kitchen was a measuring jug . Overall a marvellous experience
