Ideally located in the lovely Cemaes Bay. The house itself is beautifully laid out and one of the best stocked kitchens I've seen. The garden is big and our Border collie enjoyed running round. Lovely view of the sea from the patio too. The beds are nice and comfortable and we loved the reclining sofa and chair. Great to enjoy watching a film whilst having a nice glass of wine in the evening with you feet up. If I could make any suggestions it would be to add a few TV's to the bedrooms. This is just a personal preference for our family as we enjoy watching TV in bed. I know that's not to everyone's taste though and it's not a criticism. You cannot fault the house and the owners our lovely and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We shall definitely be back to stay soon.

The house is so lovely and spacious and very clean. Extremely well equipped kitchen and a really big fridge and separate big freezer. The garden was great and also big, perfect for our dog. The owners were really helpful when we needed to contact them. A perfect place to stay and about a 3 minute walk from the beach and town.
