Guests say
The School House is a beautifully finished, luxurious property with ample space and modern amenities, including TVs in all bedrooms and a well-equipped kitchen. It's praised for its cleanliness and comfort, though some guests suggest minor improvements. The location is suitable for exploring Anglesey, despite mixed feelings about the immediate area.
Guests consistently note the property as spotlessly clean and well looked after, with only a minor mention of some cutlery and glasses being dirty before washing.
The property is considered a good base for exploring Anglesey, but reviews indicate mixed feelings about the immediate surroundings in Holyhead.
The property is described as comfortable with generous room sizes and comfortable beds, though there are suggestions for blackout blinds and concerns about the bath design.
The property boasts high-end facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen and large TVs. However, guests noted the absence of a washing machine, bathroom shelves, and a hairdryer, and some found the flooring noisy.
While guests appreciate the property's amenities, there is no mention of gifts or extra thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.
About this property
The School House is a wonderful, converted church nestled in the bustling town of Holyhead, on the North West coast of Anglesey. Presented to a delightful standard, The School House is a great choice for couples, families and friends looking to make the most of this scenic region of Wales.The open-plan living space is a wonderful place to socialise, equipped with a range of appliances throughout. Enjoy quick meals at the breakfast bar or set the dining table up for a larger feast, before escaping to the sofas and choosing a film from the Smart TV. The School House offers three bedrooms, each with carpets, fitted storage and wall-mounted Smart TVs, with the master enjoying access to an en-suite shower room. There is also a luxurious family bathroom with freestanding bath and walk-in shower, so you can best decide how to prepare for the day. Holyhead is an excellent holiday base, with the property nestled right next to a shop and a pub, and there are many more tasty eateries available, as well as Holyhead Maritime Museum, Admiralty Arch and access to the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path. Elsewhere on this scenic Isle there are several beautiful beaches, breath-taking walks and historic sites to visit, as well as a sea zoo and the opportunity to try out watersports and wild swimming. Visit Beaumaris and Caernarfon for their wonderful castles, or if adventure takes you further afield, why not catch the ferry to Dublin and enjoy a day in the Capital of Ireland? However you choose to spend your time, choose The School House for a holiday to remember.
The bustling town of Holyhead rests on the North West coast of the Isle of Anglesey, the largest town on the island and perhaps known best for being the main ferry port to Ireland. Steeped in history, the town boasts the remains of Roman town walls and forts, medieval burial chambers and stone village foundations. Explore the Breakwater Country Park, a former quarry, which offers designated walks through the grounds. The park is full of interesting wildlife, most notably the seals who visit the Holyhead coast, and outlines the amazing construction of the world's longest breakwater, some 1.8 miles, which today protects the harbour. Visit the colourful marina with its yachts and tall ships, or the town's maritime museum, with its tales of 100 shipwrecks in the vicinity. Day trips to Ireland can be enjoyed easily from here, with Dublin just 90 minutes away on the fast ferry. With spectacular cliff top walks over Holyhead Mountain, golden sandy beaches at the award winning Trearddur Bay and the Snowdonia National Park just a 20 minute drive away, this is a superb holiday location, at any time of the year.

Excellent chip shop nearby! Would have appreciated a hairdryer and shaver sockets but minor niggles - would stay again quite happily! Thank you

Only negative is confusion around parking and how to gain access for each accommodation. People tried to gain access to the place we were staying in. Small issue with not enough hand towels and bath mat. We loved the place, very quirky and spacious.

Its to accommodate 6 people but the couches only sat 5 ? Nowhere in the bathroom for toiletries. Also the flooring in the main was quite noisy even though we all wore slippers. In the brochure all looked great in reality I think itâs the worst place we have been in in Sykes Propertyâs
