  • "Spent 2 nights here (5 of us) lovely old quirky cottage with lots of character."

    Fantastic location close to shops, restaurants and bars. Bottle of Prosecco and hamper a lovely gesture. Loved the garden, so many areas to sit out. We had to park down one of the streets opposite. Beds were comfortable, So peaceful at night couldn’t hear a sound. Shower was small, couldn’t find dvd player, dishwasher tablet holder broken, clearer instructions on how to use hot tub ie turn it off and No wi-fi. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and we would definitely return to Oyster Cottage.

  • "We had a lovely stay at Oyster Cottage."

    It was a quirky property, with loads of character. The kitchen was very well equipped and facilities excellent. The beds were very comfortable and the two main bedrooms and living area were lovely. The outdoor space was charming with lots of interesting nooks and crannies and various lovely seating areas for all weathers. The beautiful view made it a real treasure. It would be a good idea to replace the microwave as it definitely has seen better days. We would be happy to return to Oyster Cottage in the future. It was a cosy and comfortable home.

    The bedding was stained the sofas and rug in living room were disgustingly dirty as was the rest of the cottage.we made the most of being out of the cottage as had granddaughter with us and didn’t want to disappoint her however if she wasn’t we would have left. Have been on many Sykes cottages but this one really needs a deep clean. Microwave is very rusty inside could be dangerous Beaumaris is beautiful

  • "The house was ok, as described, the garden was the one that disappointed us."

    . was unkempt in some places and not suitable for disabled children or adults due to terrain that had different levels and verry narrow areas.. . We could not use the hot tub in the first day of arrival and although was announced as a possibility in the description, that was a facility unable to use but paid for it so shouldn't happen .. The view was nice on the deck, house was clean and had pretty much everything we needed for comfort.. nice experience overall, just the size of the garden made me give lesser stars for the review.. We also received a hamper for arrival , a nice welcome gift from the owner that was really nice and appreciated! Beautiful surroundings, only few minutes walk from the pier, my daughter didn't want to leave in the end..

    There was a lovely welcoming gift and the cottage is a short walk to the beach and shops which is very convenient. The only downside was the very small shower, WIFI very poor, and the third bedroom was probably a single not a double. We found the parking quite difficult as other tourists also parked outside the row of cottages. Aside from this, we still loved our stay though.

  • "We were disappointed overall with the property."

    The only positive is the location being right in the middle of Beaumaris. I would suggest that the owner tries taking a shower, which is virtually impossible if you’re not child size. There is way too manny nic nacs / furniture around collecting dust. I presume that they are trying to present a cottage with an olde worlde feel, but as a rental you look around and wonder how it can get cleaned between clients.Although the garden is a great size with a lovely view it’s not really usable as it was overgrown. The main bedroom upstairs has no real way of shutting out the light, so be prepared for broken sleep. As I said altogether disappointing, in my opinion it needs a complete overhaul and essential facilities like the shower needs immediate attention. I wouldn’t recommend it for a full house of 6 , there were only 3 of us and we struggled.

  • "The location was great, a few minutes walk from Beaumaris main centre."

    The cottage is very old quirky, grade 2 listed, well furnished, maybe a little too much clutter. We met the owner Peter, who gave us a potted history of the cottage and area, there was also a bottle of Prosecco for us which we had on my birthday, 3 days into our holiday. For us, the garden was amazing, we used the top platform for evening drinks, yoga, anytime we were there chilling, we went 'up top', it had stunning views, good garden furniture, fairy lights, and a summer house when the wind got up. We did not use the hot tub. The beds were very comfortable. We may have missed the fact that there was no WiFi. Parking was ok, but we parked round the corner as the spaces by the cottage were often in use. The negatives: the shower is very small, anyone bigger than average would have a problem. Cleaning was adequate, felt like the whole place needed a thorough deep clean. The upstairs bedrooms were comfortable, one very small, there was no loo upstairs so the little lights on the stairs were very useful at night. The downstairs bedroom was also good. The cottage was adequately clean in the bathroom, kitchen, bedrooms had new carpets, but needed to be cleaner overall, the kitchen pedal bin was broken, and there was no frying pan. The oven didn't work that well, we used matches to light the gas. Overall, we enjoyed our 7 night stay, the garden was great and we made good use of it.

The garden is lovely, rustic and very pretty, allowing different levels to enjoy the sunshine and a coffee, a dip in the hot tub or a read of a book under fairy lights protected by the rain in a lovely little hut, it catered for all moments and was secure for the children and the dog. Yes the shower was a squeeze but it’s manageable.

    ...The garden was quite unkempt and the hot tub looked filthy, so we did not attempt to use it. The bbq didn't work and to be fair to the owner, he replaced it straight away and provided us with disposable bbq's in the meantime. The cooker didn't work, we had a call from cooker engineer to tell us how to get it working. The tumble dryer didn't close, so couldn't be used and the dishwasher tablet holder was broken. We didn't try the washing machine. The henry hoover was broken also. On the positive side, a lovely hamper was waiting for us with proseco, chocolates and wine. The beds were comfortable and the cottage was very central to beaumaris.

    Utterly perfect. If you don’t like a little dust or creaky bits of wood then I don’t think it’s for you. It’s not a hotel/spa experience it’s a real seaside cottage in one of the most beautiful places in the UK. The place was probably built before 1610 and I think many people lived happy lives in that cottage, and we absolutely loved it! (I would agree with comments about the shower and WiFi on behalf of the rest of us though but don’t let that put you off this amazing experience

  • "This property is not accurately described and we definitely would not stay here again."

    Whilst we appreciate that the owner is attempting to preserve the period feel, it really needs lots of TLC and some money spent on it. I'm afraid none of our feedback is what the owner will want to hear, but we are attempting to be constructive and we expected much better for the £1400 per week price tag. There is NO wi-fi at all and very limited mobile reception. Our teenager was very unhappy as she was without contact for the week! Neither could she watch anything on TV as it was limited to very slow Freeview style channels. Get a broadband booster and install a proper Smart TV. The "shower" is really not fit for purpose - it's actually a tiny, moldy cupboard and the shower-head squirts everywhere but where it is required - none of us have long hair luckily but even so it took a good ten minutes to try and wash conditioner out. Make the "shower room" an extra toilet and put a shower over the bath (or add a shower cubicle in the bathroom). The kitchen bin is broken and there are no bins in any of the bedrooms - easily remedied and not expensive to resolve. The third bedroom is only fit for one person - the door doesn't open fully as the bed is so close to it and there is no-where to stand. The cottage as a whole feels cluttered and a bit dirty - when we arrived there were cobwebs and dust everywhere - and a pair of someone else's underpants in the downstairs bedroom drawer! One of our party got a huge pin through their slipper, just missing their foot. It needs a deep clean. There are still Christmas decorations on the dining table - in July - why?! The sofas are sagging and need replacing - one has a huge hole in the back of it - not just covering with a ridiculous amount of throws and cushions. The furniture at the top of the garden is only fit for the skip and the decking needs serious work; the BBQ was dirty so we didn't use it and the hot tub water seems to leak out overnight. We did, however, love the obviously new "hobbit house" and cottage feel of the garden - it just needs a tidy up. The cracked glass in the front door and dirty windows did not make for a good first impression and our parting impression was no better - when removing the bedding as requested we were appalled by the state of the pillows and duvets - new ones definitely required! Overall we feel this cottage needs serious improvement to justify the amount being charged. It could be stunning but sadly isn't.

  • "We met with Peter (the owner) and liked him!"

    We hope the following will be taken as it is intended (ie constructive). The cottage is quirky - but we like that however, there are lots of things that need attending to and attention to detail is clearly lacking! Firstly, the bedding is of a very poor quality and not commensurate with price paid for the cottage The light switches are all over the place and really difficult to locate There was never any internet during the week we were there and I think this should be highlighted as a possible issue The folder detailing information regarding the cottage (bin days, laundry at the end of the holiday, how to access the internet {just incase we were very unlucky!}, was not clear and could do with updating Our main issue is the garden. It needs sorting out and tidying up; The seating at the top is falling apart and the decking doesn't look safe; The cushions for the outside seating were left out and therefore got wet as it rained. Finally the overflow outside the back door felt like a health hazard. Peter was erecting more decking prior to our arrival and I feel his time would be better spent looking at the issues mentioned.

  • "Beaumaris is a beautiful place to visit and whilst the cottage was cosy, it didnt feel very cared for or considered."

    One bedroom was particularly small, definitely not possible to fit two people comfortably, making the listing as a place that sleeps 6 inaccurate. The kitchen facilities were lacking, or just not considered, huge pasta serving bowls but not many utensils for cooking. Found a pile of dvds but no DVD player, no Wi-Fi, a CD player but most CD cases were empty and the hot tub was tired and dirty on the outside. We also had delivery of some glass bannisters for the owner of the property while we there, with no warning, which then had to stay in the living room. As well as piles of wood and building materials in the garden. There were also some loose stones in the garden, which my 75 year old mother tripped on and fell, cutting her finger, went to the first aid kit in the kitchen, no plasters. It wouldnt take a lot to make changes here that would really improve the stay as the location is just stunning, easy to get around and see so much of Angelsey and we had a wonderful time enjoying Beaumaris too. Just needs a bit more care to make this cottage welcoming.

  • "It was a huge issue there was no WiFi at the property - as you could not get any phone signal in the immediate area."

    This meant it was not possible to work or keep in touch with family - and with no TV, DVD, CD (as advertised) etc, there was no music or entertainment at all. Certainly not family friendly. And the third bedroom cannot be described as a double when one person cannot even stand in the room with the door shut to get changed/dressed - our guest for that room decided not to stay. We paid £1,400 which we consider far too much for what is in reality a 2 bedroom cottage where you could not connect with the outside world, when it was not billed in this way. Lots to like with the lovely character of the cottage and central location, but lots to disappoint too when you are paying premium rates, compared to other options.

    The two main bedrooms are very spacious and the open plan living/dining/kitchen area is huge. Overall the cottage is very well equipped and the large terraced garden is a delight. Slight downside is the tiny shower in a cupboard, the minuscule third “bedroom” and the need for a really thorough deep clean as others have mentioned previously. Overall we had a great stay in Oyster Cottage and the extensive welcome hamper was a really nice surprise - the Tunnocks Caramel Wafers and Malteasers lasted seconds.

The garden is absolutely amazing, and we were rather regretting that we'd booked for November, although the hot tub went down very well. It'll be wonderful in the summer. Beautiful views over the fields and mountains at the back and very well furnished and equipped. It's perfectly positioned for walking into town as well. All in all ideal.

    We were greeted with a generous welcome pack and everything is there that you need. It could do with some refurbishment works however (particularly the bathroom/shower room and the outside decking areas) and generally a deep clean- there were cobwebs all over and the taps in the bathroom weren’t cleaned properly, neither behind the bed in the smallest bedroom or under the rug in the front room. The boiler vent pipe is also constantly leaking meaning that there is always water outside the back door even on a dry day. We had an enjoyable stay however for the money we paid I feel things could be improved.

  • "Garden: needed a good prune and tidy of brushes and shrubs."

    Furniture was moldy and dirty not fit to sit on. Some of the chairs were worn enough so the ratting had started to break up. Was not pleasant to sit out which was a shame as we had glorious weather the week we were there. House: Considering it was a 16th century cottage its character and quirks are wonderful but that is where it ends. To advertise as a six person cottage is not accurate. It has a damp, musty aura that didn't help my Mother who suffers with a lung condition. She found a wood lice in her shoe one morning and Ivy growing through the door in her bedroom. The third bedroom was tiny and definitely would not sleep 2 adults comfortably. To call it a double bedroom is a play on words. I have no idea how they would be able to dress or undress as there is absolutely no room to turn or move around. Would be better used to turn it into a shower room with toilet for the other double bedroom upstairs. Shower room: was more of a cubicle and my Father who is only 5' 7" struggled to shower in the tiny space. Every time he turned he knocked the tap which either sent water scalding or turned it off. Far better to knock through into the bathroom and make a large bathroom with walk in shower. The furniture whilst a wonderful museum of 16th century households was uncomfortable to sit on at length around the dining table. Maybe too much furniture packed into the cottage. The sofas are so old and misshapen that again they were very uncomfortable. A six berth cottage should surely have a four slice toaster. It makes one think the owner advertises as a six berth to merely gain financial satisfaction. We would not rent this cottage again unless major improvements are made as it certainly wasn't worth the money we paid to stay there. Its disappointing and makes us wonder do Menai Holidays check the properties you have on your books because if you rely on owner pictures then you are failing in you duty to ensure paying customers enjoy their stay in one of your properties. I doubt you would want to publish my remarks and maybe rather have a conversation and inspection of Oyster Cottage with the owner. I ask you would you happily sleep in the third bedroom yourself? I also wonder if you will contact me considering the feedback I have given. I don't write these comments just for the sake of complaining but in the hope you will undertake to ensure your properties are the best they can be for the holiday maker. I want to continue using your company as we have in the past.

    We found the cottage very spacious for 4 people, however I think more seating would be needed in the lounge area if more than 4 people are staying. The cottage is quite well equipped, however the tumble dryer had a faulty door when we stayed. We generally enjoyed our stay in the cottage however it was let down a little by the shower room, this is cramped and it's difficult to have a shower without continually knocking the shower control, hence changing the temperature. also the shower room fan wasn't working, as a consequence there is quite a lot what looks like mould in the tiling.

The property

Oyster Cottage is a gorgeous listed holiday cottage which is full of character.

The original features and period furniture from the 17th Century gives the feeling of stepping back in time with the added value of modern facilities.

The owner has designed the furnishing of this house so thoughtfully and it has so many unique features. The kitchen has a quarry tiled floor and a lovely scrubbed oak table and settle.

There is a gas cooker and hob, fridge with ice box, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, microwave and all the pots, pans and utensils you will need. The seating area has comfortable sofas set around a log burner.

There is also a flat screen TV.

The dining area is beautifully furnished with seating for six or more. There is a ground floor bedroom with king size bed and doors out to patio area.

There is also a ground floor bathroom with a bath, loo, wash hand basin and radiator.

There is a separate shower room next door. Upstairs there is a double room with king size bed, and a small double room tucked into the eaves. To the rear of the house there is a private, enclosed garden with garden furniture, subtle lighting, decking and seating areas and hot tub.

Views of the rolling countryside over to mountain and sea can be seen from the upper decking and seating area.

There is on road parking. Guests are advised that as the hot tubs need to be cleaned and emptied for each new set of guests, the water may not be fully up to temperature on the first evening of their stay.

Oyster Cottage is deceptively spacious and very cosy with central heating, clever lighting and fireside seating.

It is within easy walking distance of pubs, restaurants and interesting shops in Beaumaris, as well as the famous moated castle, the Gaol and, of course, the lovely Green on the banks of the Menai Strait.

About the location

BEAUMARIS

Menai Bridge 4 miles.

Beaumaris is a well known historic town on the Isle of Anglesey situated on the Menai Strait and overlooking the Snowdonia mountain range, making for the most stunning of sunrises. With its medieval castle (now a World Heritage site) dating back to the reign of Edward I and its Victorian pier, gaol and courthouse, it is also known as a major centre for yachting. Beaumaris is rich in history and retains much of its medieval street pattern. It’s setting, diversity of architectural styles and periods, differing scale, open spaces, varying roofs and overall quality contribute greatly to the town’s character. There is a good selection of shops, restaurants and public houses, as well as fishing opportunities and boat trips in the town, plus a golf course nearby. Along the coast is a large bay called Red Wharf Bay; its Welsh name is Traeth Coch (Red Beach) and the area is renowned for its glorious sunsets. The bay is very shallow and at low tide, almost 25 square kilometres (10 sq. mi.) of sand is uncovered providing safe bathing, perfect for wonderful family fun, fishing and miles of stunning scenic walks. Further afield is the port of Holyhead, which has regular ferry links to Dublin. Beaumaris is a good central base for touring Wales, in a beautiful location on the south coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey, within easy reach of the spectacular mountains of Snowdonia.
