We were celebrating our 57th wedding anniversary and this break was just the way to do it. The house was comfortable, well equipped with everything you could wish for, and marvelous views of the straits and Snowdonia from the living room and bedrooms. It was in a convenient situation to start exploring both Anglesy and parts of North Wales such as Bangor Pier and Penrhyn Castle. In the evening we often went down to the little quayside hotel a short walk or drive, the Gazelle Hotel, to either enjoy a drink on the quayside or a lovely supper in the dining room overlooking the straits. There were many walks, suggestions and useful information left for our use by the owner, and we actually added a couple to his folder,

Hot water supply was very good, and the shower in the ensuite excellent (other shower not used). Heating worked well. Beds very comfortable. Views from property outstanding. Only two very minor points - the sink plug in bathroom does not fit completely - water drains away, and the bin collection was at 0530 !
