We had a really enjoyable family stay at Kings House in Beaumaris. The property is very spacious, which worked perfectly for our large group. It’s true that the house is a little dated in places, but its fantastic location more than makes up for it. Everything you need is within walking distance — the local Spar, plenty of pubs, and lots of lovely independent shops.There were a few minor issues: the lights kept tripping, and we couldn’t get the outside lights to work. We were also a bit short on dinner plates (only nine for a group of twelve), although there were plenty of cooking utensils. Parking can be tricky, but the nearby pier car park is convenient at £7.50 per day.Overall, the house did exactly what we needed it to do and gave us a comfortable base for a great family break.

Kings house was in an excellent location 2 mins walk into town and beach. Clear key instructions/directions. Parking outside but only for one HR to allow for unpacking and then had to move cars to carpark. As it was a large group of us we had four cars and it was a bit of nightmare to find spaces else where near by. Plus the cost. The house itself was clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub was lovely and all prepared for our arrival. It is a little old fashioned in taste and quite a lot of stains on the walls especially going up to the first floor. Needs a re paint. Floors very uneven in places especially the bedrooms and lots of stairs to negotiate so wouldn't recommend if any disabled in your group.

The house was a great choice as it had plenty of space and bathrooms for a large group of people and the grandchildren loved exploring and playing hide and seek and they wanted to know when they would be returning ! The kitchen was large and well equipped and of course they all loved the hot tub. It was centrally located and great for exploring the area. I think it was excellent value for money.
