"Just spent a lovely week at Gwelfor with our daughter and our 4 dogs."
Fantastic location for the beach and coastal walks.
The property is a little tired in places, but clean and comfortable.
Great enclosed garden for the dogs with a fab hot tub to relax in after being out on the beach.
Contact with the hosts DJ & Lee was great.
Would definitely recommend.
So pleased to read that you had a great time at Gwelfor and would definitely recommend. We do have an upgrade plan for January 2025 which is the first opportunity for us to get this lovely home back and implement some of the upgrades we have been wanting to make.

"We were very disappointed with this property the quality of the furnishings was good but the lack of general upkeep and maintenance was poor all laminate floors need to be changed as there were parts worn out and gave way in parts creating trip hazards."
Walls were dirty in my view it needed a paint job throughout. the bathroom needs attention rusty fittings sink unit fascia peeling etc etc.hot tub cover broken and nearly falling off very difficult to open without it falling off.for the premium paid we expected a lot more

"Very decent place to stay, good location and comfortable."
Only complaints would be lack of of an info/welcome pack, not many tea towels and no oven gloves!
Thank you for your feedback. We were so pleased to read that you found our home in a good location and that you also found that it was comfortable. We are rethinking our approach to welcome packs which were removed post-covid. All our appliances and facilities are really easy to use which kid of made the books redundant. We are also at the end of a telephone should any help be needed. even though this is a self catering accommodation, we provide two tea towels but over gloves are a preference and hence why we do not include them.

"We were a party ranging from 2 years old to 83 years old accompanied by 3 dogs."
We found the property just right for us and appreciated the garden being fully fenced in. Lovely footpath leading to the beach starting a few minutes from the front door which was ideal for our great granddaughter to enjoy. We loved the beaches we visited as did the dogs of course plus the wonderful views and lunch in the cafe at South Stack which was excellent. The hot tub was relaxing after a busy day . We will book again , Erica
We were so pleased to read that you found our lovely home just right for your party and enjoyed the location. It was also pleasing to hear that you poochies enjoyed the garden. Our home is ideally located for the coastal path with its breath-taking scenery and very close proximity to the wonderful Cemeas Beach.

"Not a problem as such, but couldn't find a wheelie bin or any recycling boxes."
Lovely hot tub. Safe garden for dogs. Couple of minutes walk to beach, shops, pub so very good location.
Thanks Lyn for your comments. As will have been discussed, we have a policy of not allowing any waste to go to landfill. The black bin at the front of the property takes all waste and we collect this weekly or more frequently if needed. As we have several homes, we then take this to our central bins where our contractor collects all the wate and turns it into something which can be used again :-)

"Fabulous location!"
!!
The house has all that you can need and is well equipped, is modern in its decorations, has good quality bed linens ensuring a great nights sleep, a nice enclosed garden which was great for the dog to roam around in, a secluded hot tub and is set in a secluded cul-de-sac. Friendly owners who were contactable if needed.
However, the house requires a little TLC in the painting and decoration sense, floorings which need replacing and the hot tub lid needs repairing. The twinkly lights in the tree in the garden do not work - its the little things, that make it rough round the edges. Sorted out, this house would be perfect, it is a great party pad.
We would return as the location is sublime!!!!

"The property is 2 mins from the beach and village shops in a quiet location."
On arrival it was spotless, with hand sanitiser and hand wash provided.
The décor is lovely, and the beds, sofa, chair are all very comfortable. Huge smart tv in the living room with Netflix and sky. Wi-Fi was great with no issues. Kitchen is probably one of the best equipped we've had in a self catering property, literally everything you could need was provided. The pans and cooking trays were all spotless. We only cooked on the first night, as we ate out the rest of the time but its got everything for a full self catering holiday, along with a coffee machine and plenty of cutlery, plates etc.
Bedrooms all very comfortable, the downstairs bedroom was ideal for my Mum who has mobility issues due to her knees. The are a few steps outside the front door (which we knew when booking) which were a bit steep for my mum but she managed for the week. Garden is also a good size and fully secure for dogs, so we were able to open the door and let our dog explore without having to worry about her getting out.
However, there are couple of things that we feel need attention. There are no external wheelie bins for rubbish or recycling, so we had to leave black bins bags tied up next to the garden shed. The property has an open fire, but no wood or matches provided. Given the rental premium, initial starter logs, kindling, firelighters, matches etc. should be provided and then customers left to purchase anything extra. The property needs a visitor information book/folder about the property and surrounding area for those visitors who may not know the island as well as we do. There were plenty of large bath towels, but only one hand towel provided. Luckily we'd taken a couple with us just in case, but again these are small issues that are easy to resolve for the owners.
We would stress that these are not criticisms; they would not stop us from booking the property again, but would increase the value for money experience.
Also the key collection details are incorrect and need to be updated, the email stated there is a key safe; however, that is not correct. One of the helpful owners rang us, just as were were arriving to let us know.

"This was a very comfortable and airy property."
Generally the quality of facilities was high and the hot tub was fabulous.
The only negative aspect was the cost- it did feel overpriced for the location, however I suspect that was due to increased demand because of the pandemic.
Thanks for your kind feedback. Delighted you enjoyed the cottage and the quality of our facilities. Owners have very limited input into the pricing of our home. However, we can see that your booking was made reasonably close to the date of arrival which, just like airline travel, can impact cost. Cemaes Bay has always been a popular destination and the pandemic has led to increased visitor traffic.
