"The property combined stunning location, stylishness and comfort."
We never tired of gazing at the view of the mountains, different every day. The kitchen was very well equipped, the living area and bedrooms were comfortable and practical, and the bathrooms luxurious. The building was historically interesting too, and we would have welcomed more information about it.

"The property is fitted and equipped to a very high standard which together with fantastic views make for a wonderful holiday accommodation with one exception; the heating controls for the bedrooms and bathrooms."
The property has two Nest thermostats, one for the living space downstairs which can be fully adjusted in terms of timing and heat (great) and one upstairs controlling the bedrooms and bathrooms for which the owners declined to provide the pin code when requested and so only they can decide when the heating comes on and off (weird and uncomfortable)

"A nearly perfect stay but there are one or two observations: Really liked the chamfered wooden furniture."
The beds in the master bedroom and double bedroom were very comfortable Very useful to label all the remotes Where we think improvements could be made 1. The lighting in both bedrooms is poor particularly the bed side lamps. They are no use for reading. These lamps are for ambient lighting and not functional lighting. The lamp next to the bevel mirror in the master bedroom is also poor, difficult to see to put on make up. 2. There was no instructions in the guest pack regarding disposal of rubbish, bedding, how to use the tv the fridge freezer and telescope(didn't use it for fear of breaking it) 3. The TV is quite technical particularly if one is not used to a SKY TV and SKYQ box. There were no instructions on how to use it. I would have expected at least, to have a link to a website that takes you directly to a manual (not a general page) 4. Similarly with the heating system. Again no instructions As a minimum a website that takes you directly to a manual (not a general page) 3.There is not a thermostat/control in the master bedroom and access to the radiators is not possible so one cannot turn the heating up or down. 4. I think there needs to be few more easy chairs to enjoy the view - particularly in the tower areas - lounge and main bedroom. 5. Whilst the listing for the property stated there was no washing machine, I would have expected an iron and ironing board. 6. FYO - 2 bulbs need replacing in the chandelier above the first landing and the door bell does not ring. A lovely property is a lovely place to chill out and watch the changing light, the clouds and activity on the straits. We did enjoy out stay.

"Stayed at Bryn Mel Manor apartment 4 !"
Cannot recommend this highly enough - we will stay again and again ! Have never had my expectation surpassed as much as this !

"Five Star Luxury - amazing apartment - not to be missed!"
This is our fifth stay at Bryn Mel Manor, our first at Straits View and my goodness, we saved the best till last! The views are spellbinding, to sit in the bay window every night just watching the changing light on the Straits and Snowdonia was something you will never forget. The owners have equipped the apartment with absolutely everything you could want. A small issue was sorted by the Owners immediately. The option for a 5 night stay for us was ideal and would welcome this opportunity to be available throughout the year as we would love to return in the Autumn.
