  • "We found black mild around the window in the twin bedroom, this caused my grandson to have a really bad chest."

    This was the only fault we found with the property

  • "Really nice house, well furnished for eight."

    The boiler broke and there was no hot water in the morning - the landlord responded in the evening and fixed it.

  • "We have stayed at this property before it has everything you need and more it’s definitely home from home!"

    The owners are amazing any issues that may occur are instantly resolved! The welcome pack and the games room are an added bonus! The 4 bedroom smoke free and pet free property is the only type of rental we would ever consider it Is in a great location fantastic scenery and close to great beaches. The décor throughout the house is a coastal theme which has been tastefully put together along with the bed linen and the towels which also match this modern style clean holiday home, Thank you for a great holiday Christine & Family

    The owners have thought of everything! There isn’t anything more the owners could provide for their guest it’s all there available for use. We had a wonderful holiday in a very clean well equipped property would definitely recommend especially if you are fussy and like nice things! Christine

    The games room is great addition and would recommend.

  • "The property was was a pleasure to rent,we had a lovely time, On the Sunday ..."

    The property was was a pleasure to rent,we had a lovely time, On the Sunday one guest was feeling unwell/ did the test first signs of Covic, we decided to move out early Monday morning, Did ask for a rebate as we felt we had done the right thing, But it all feel on deaf ears,it felt like there was no care ,

    Morning and thank you for the comments and sorry you felt this way about us. Please note Sykes take 25% of your money from us, I went to Sykes and asked if we lowered the cost for you would they also do this so and their policy says no. As you had Covid we couldn’t get anyone else in to cover the extra days, the cleaners refused to go in until the booked in date due to the Covid. Full house clean, changeover and linen costs we still had to pay for. We do care for all our guests and I’m sure you could see this in the house and what we have in place for you. You are the only guest to give us a bad rating which I feel is unfair but I also understand your frustration with us but please remember we did ask Sykes to match our percentage drop they said no, we couldn’t let out to anyone else for the last two days and the cleaner refused to clean until changeover day. Once again apologies, please let me know if you ever book again and we’ll arrange a discount. Property Owner

  • "We chose this property primarily because it provided an EV charging point."

    However, the property proved to be ideal, clean, comfortable & in an excellent location . Cartref is tastefully furnished & well equipped. The only negative the listing states a tumble dryer we did not see one. The Welcome Pack was a lovely a touch also the owners information guide was welcoming, friendly & helpful not dictatorial. Thank you so much we had a super holiday & would not hesitate to return.

  • "Really nicely presented house."

    Attention to detail second to none with holiday rental in mind. Off road parking for 3 cars. Games room is great with TV which enabled us to take my son’s XBox without hogging living room. Recreation field out of the back gate perfect for a kick about with kids. Great location for a walk into Menai for drinks/meal etc., if a little steep on the way back! Would definitely recommend and will likely resume ourselves.

    If there was anything negative about the property it would have to be the back garden wall, far too high a more open aspect would be better, otherwise thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thankyou

The property

In a quiet area of the bustling town Menai Bridge, is this large semi-detached property, Cartref. Hosting spacious rooms, four bedrooms and a variety of exciting features, this property is suited to a large family or group of eight, looking to enjoy a pleasant break in Anglesey.

Neutral and soft hues of grey, blue and white create a calming atmosphere in the open-plan living space, settle down in here in the evening and be warmed by the stove-effect electric fire while you gather around to watch a movie in the sitting area.

A fantastic coastal-themed light feature rests above the dining table, here you can serve up delicious dishes with seating for all the group.

Over in the kitchen area you can make use of the quality appliances beneath the marble-effect worktops, including an electric oven and hob, along with a dishwasher for a stress-free clean-up.

For hours of endless entertainment for all ages, head to the games room where a pool table, table tennis, and a darts board provide you with plenty of fun on a rainy day.

Completing the ground floor is one of the four bedrooms which continues the sea-themed décor, holding a double bed and benefiting from a spectacular en-suite shower room.

Travel upstairs to find the other three sleeping spots, including another double, a twin and a bunk room, served by an excellent bathroom with an inviting P-shaped bath with a shower over.

Use the enclosed garden as a peaceful spot to take in the fresh morning air with a warm cup of tea, and later on make it your summer evening retreat with a glass of wine.

When you want to explore the area, head into the centre of Menai Bridge and begin with a trip to the Menai Bridge Heritage Museum where the history of this town is told, when the weather is warm take a RibRide boat ride down the Menai Strait for those feeling adventurous, or visit the quaint Church Island where the 15th century St Tysilio's church rests.

Visit the village of Llanfairpwllgwyngyll and get a picture of the famous full-length place name sign, or discover the charming town of Beaumaris in the other direction, where you can visit Beaumaris Castle and Gaol.

As well as being within easy driving distance of Anglesey's beautiful beaches for sunny beach days, Cartref is everything you want for a welcoming family home while you enjoy the delights of Wales.
