Whilst the bathroom was spotlessly clean the rest of the house was in need of a good scrub. If you moved furniture, the dust and dirt was evident. I had to clean the drawers in the main bedroom before unpacking as there was hair and bits of fluff in them. The oven was only just clean enough to use and the oven trays all needed replacing as old and rusty. The kitchen had most things but some bigger bowls would have been helpful, especially if you wanted to put anything in the microwave. All in all a good stay but just needed a little bit more time spent on cleaning.

The owners have thought of everything! Even the rabbits and wildlife in the garden were lovely to sit and watch with a fully enclosed garden ideal for our dog.

The beds are probably the best we've ever stayed in, some morning it's was a tough decision whether to get up. It was great to have a sea view to sit and look at to with a coffee or dinner of an evening, looking out to Holyhead and watching each ferry come and go. Outside the decking is large and spacious and thata before even entering the lawn which again is large...CAUTION: there are some dips and holes in the lawn that you should be careful of. Whilst for us it created some rumbling amusement it may not for someone else. The only downside for us was outside lighting. Coming in of an evening it was pitch black in the driveway. The solar lights did not work. At the rear the flame style solar lanterns were a nice touch but produced no light. There are so solar lights but they were dependent on nice weather to 'charge them'. The guest book did mention about previous fixed lighting that the owners had an issue with because of the Irish sea. My opinion would be to try again! All in all a great stay regardless of the weather and a lovely little cottage.
