"We had a lovely few days Hen Felin Isaf."
Lianne was a great host, lighting the fire before our arrival and responding quickly to messages.
The location of the cottage is fantastic, right on the beach with a small garden and patio- perfect for watching the waves, birds and changing light. It was comfortable inside and, although it was very cold weather during our stay, it was only chilly in the hall and bathroom and there were additional heaters had we chosen to use them.
We spent time walking in the Eryri mountains, Llyn peninsula and around the coast path, right from the door! The local pub is also worth a visit for a friendly welcome and reasonably priced food and drink.
We'll definitely return!

"The cottage is in a gorgeous location and was very peaceful."
We enjoyed our stay although the week was very cold and the heating didn't cope very well, the fire in the lounge did help a little. The cottage could have been cleaner, we had to clean the fridge, as there was blood in it, before we put food in it so i guess this had been overlooked and there was dust and dirt on the skirting. The bed, towels and flooring were all clean, as was the kitchen equipment, which was more than adequate.
Overall a lovely stay, would like to return at a warmer time of year.
Hi there, we are so sorry you found the cottage not very clean. We sincerely apologise for the fridge, which is usually cleaned well and must've been a one off oversight. We will go over our standards with the cleaners again. We also apologise for the cottage being cold. The heaters are new and we haven’t got the settings quite right. It is such an old building and can take alot of heat to get it comfortable, we can only strive to improve and have more heaters available.
We hope you do visit again and have a better experience, kind regards, Lianne.

"An absolutely wonderful stay in the beautiful cottage within yards of the beach and sea."
If the wonderful views of the sea, especially the sunsets, and miles of sand to walk on and a home from home cottage weren't enough the wonderful family that own it live just behind and above it. They gave me a warm welcome and were on hand when needed and I had a lovely chat about the history of the cottage and about Llandonna. Thank you to them and I hope to come back again

"We've had a fabulous week in this lovely cottage."
Extremely comfortable and well laid out, with everything we needed for our stay. The views are stunning from the garden and inside; we will miss the evening sunsets. This cottage is in a perfect location for coastal and beach walks - our dog loved it too. The owners were friendly and approachable if needed, we will definitely return - highly recommend.
Thankyou so much Sarah, it means so much to get good feedback from our new customers. We are really glad you're thinking of a return visit!

"Beautiful area close to the quaint seaside resort of Beaumaris."
The cottage is in an amazing location right next to the beach. We were very comfortable here, enjoyed the sea view from the sitting room and watching the sunsets from the garden. We had everything we needed and the new bed is sumptuous.
It’s worth knowing that the mile long road down from Llanddona village is narrow, steep and twisty. But there are passing places and by the end of the week we were going up and down without a qualm.
Altogether a fab place which we will return to.

"Avoid at all costs."
The house has a good aspect but unfortunately let down by being cheaply furnished. One of owners who lives behind house was intrusive, unwelcoming and made the stay an unpleasant experience. Would not recommend.
We are really sorry the cottage didn't meet your expectations. We always
try to be sensitive to our guests and not be intrusive in any way. We do
allow dogs, which means we may not invest heavily in high end furniture and
fittings but we do strive to ensure our cottage is clean, has nice linen
and a good level of comfort. The cottage has had some good improvements
made to it this year. We will be adopting the security bond system going
forward to ensure that we don't have any cause to ask customers to
retrospectively pay for any damage or repairs and hopefully this creates a
fair and reasonable expectation on both sides.

"We have stayed here 3 times over the past 9 years I think it is and there really hasn't been any updates with furniture, the double bed was uncomfortable for us and we ended up using the two singles which were really comfortable."
The cottage sleeps 4 but still there is only a 2 seater settee and one arm chair so not ideal or comfortable for 4 people to relax. The location is what does it for us, right on the beach, fantastic, but am sorry to say we wont be returning, and what has added to making this decision was the 2 visits from the owner who walked past the front door and knocked on the lounge room window which I thought was a little intrusive, and also the fact the owner made a point of telling me twice, on these visits, to put money in the honesty box on the fire place for logs and kindle even though there was a sign/note clear to see stating this....

It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was great for walks along Red Wharf Bay and the views from the garden were beautiful, particularly the sunsets.

The owners lived next door and were really friendly and helpful without being intrusive.

The Bathroom and ensuite Cloakroom are modern and well equipped. The Hosts Brother lives on site with his wife and gorgeous doggy. They are lovely and welcoming, but not intrusive in anyway. The only comment we have that is not totally positive is that the mattresses have seen better days but it will me stop me returning.
