  • "Stunning place, immaculately clean!"

    Our second visit to Tamarisk in 4 months and just as good as last time. Lovely welcome pack including treats for Angus the dog. We were there for 2 weeks and the owner arranged for the bedding and towels to be changed after the first week, a lovely touch. The house has everything you could wish for and is in a great location. One suggestion may be to add some small glass tumblers in the kitchen as all the glasses are large, but only a minor point. We are about to book to come back again later this year.

    We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for the feedback regarding the glasses, we will take that on board. We look forward to welcoming you to Tamarisk again soon. Property Owner

  • "Beautiful bungalow, decor and furniture modern and immaculate, equipment etc excellent, super enclosed garden with views of sea, drive easy to access , quiet area, close to beach, immaculately maintained , exceptionally clean ."

    There are a number of steps around and inside the property and it's not a walk in shower so not ideal for someone with mobility problems, but other than that it's a lovely place for a quiet unspoiled holiday , we really enjoyed it, thank you to the owners for allowing us to stay there.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay & hope to see you again in the future. With regards to your comments regarding the steps & shower, the property is marketed as having a shower over the bath & also having steps into & around the property, although being ground floor. We hope this didn't spoil your stay. Property Owner

  • "What a fabulous holiday cottage, one of the best we have stayed in and that is praise indeed as we have stayed in numerous cottages over many years."

    Everything was absolutely first class. Spotlessly clean, furnishings beautiful and beds and linen so comfortable. Everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. The outside garden was lovely with long distance sea views. The only comment on the outside I would make is that a handrail up to the decking would benefit those not so mobile and young children. The garden was safe for our little dogs (Norwich Terriers) but larger dogs could maybe vault the wall The beaches are wide and safe and line the coastline. Moelfre is a lovely village with fabulous sea view walks on the coastal path. All in all a wonderful holiday and we plan to return to Tamarisk in 2024.

    Thank you very much for your feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay at Tamarisk. We will definitely take your suggestion regarding installing a handrail up to the raised decking on on board and hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

  • "The property is very well equipped and of a high standard."

    I especially liked the fact that you could see the sea from virtually all windows (excluding the bathroom). The property is well located in a quiet neighbourhood and a short walk to the village and coastal path. The only downsides for me were that on arrival, the settee and 2 upholstered chairs (living room and sun room) had quite a lot of white dog hairs on them. My 2 dogs were not allowed on the furniture, and in any event are hypoallergenic (non shedding). Further, the garden wall at the rear makes the property insecure for anyone taking dogs, (be warned) it is not sufficiently high enough to deter them from escaping. On the morning of my second day, both dogs got over the wall and were missing for over an hour. It was only due to the fact my brother resides very close that we were able to find them. Overall though, it is a lovely property and I would return.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the property. Thank you for raising the issue regarding the dog hairs on the furniture. We will raise this with our cleaning company right away. As you are aware, the rear garden is enclosed with a perimeter wall approximately 3 feet high. For this reason we do not advertise the garden as being secure for dogs. We would always recommend that they were not left unattended in the garden. Property Owner

    The decor and quality of everything in it is fantastic. It is very well equipped. The views are stunning from every viewpoint and a perfect place to relax in your surroundings. The location is lovely and quiet, with easy access to walks and in a few strides you can be at the sea. I have never experienced such a clear view of the night sky! We got a day of great sunshine so walked the coastal path to Lligwy. We got a day of rain so had a place to relax all warm and snuggly. The owners have a fantastic property and we are so grateful to have been able to share it! Thank you.

The only two points I would change is swapping the tv’s in the living room and conservatory and the bath could have done with being a full oblong and not shaped. Other than that excellent!

    The cottage is absolutely stunning which amazing views. It is so well equipped with everything you could possibly need and it was so clean. We loved the little touches like leaving a small milk in the fridge and the cake on arrival. Really lovely touches to show the hosts go the extra mile. The cottage is in a lovely location. So quiet with views across the sea yet a short walk to the RNLI and coastal paths, or in to the village for a stop at the cafe or ice cream shop. Thank you for such a lovely stay.

  • "We had a wonderful time at Tamarisk!"

    The cottage is clean and sleek but still feels homely. The only room which was not cleaned to a high standard was the breakfast/ sun room, which had dog hair round the skirting from the previous guests. Tamarisk has everything you need for a really enjoyable stay. We had coffee every morning on the outdoor terrace (even in the rain!) because the view was so pretty and the garden was perfect for our little dog who loved pottering around it. The real bbq was great too. It’s just a short walk down to the coastal path or the village centre. The only real negative was when the landscapers interrupted our lie in and worked noisily in the garden for an hour, even walking past the bedroom window. Although it was 11am, they really should have asked permission. Other than that, it was perfect and we will definitely be back! Thank you for some amazing memories Tamarisk.

    Thank you for your feedback. We endeavour to maintain the property to a high standard so guest feedback is extremely important. We apologise for the standard of cleanliness in the sun room and will pick this up as a matter of urgency with our cleaning company. Again, in order to maintain the property to a high standard we ensure that the garden is maintained. We apologise if the gardeners disturbed your peace and quiet. Property Owner

    It is in a quiet little area and very close to the coastal path which is ideal for daily walks. The owners have obviously gone to great lengths to ensure that the house and its gardens are perfect, I’m not sure that we could have found any faults if we had tried, everything about it is done to a high standard. This was our second stay in Moelfre, in a different Menai holidays home, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the friendly atmosphere of the town. I have no doubt that we will return and would use Menai holidays and Tamarisk again.

    ) BUT DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY - we are totally fed up of cleaning these Sykes Cottages on arrival and we are not cleaning freaks in any way. Dirty sinks, unclean loos, human hair everywhere, fridge handles yuk, toothpaste splattered from the previous people, dog hair everywhere, dusty floors, bathroom tiles around bath area generally horrific and need a blast - it is not acceptable and we don't want to have to call and moan when we get there to find a place as dirty as our last 2 holiday rentals, as it spoils the holiday and we don't want a cleaner in as we have 2 kids and 2 dogs and it is an intrusion, it should simply be clean on arrival. Like a hotel would be, for the same price or cheaper! We are fed up now of this standard of cleaning and it's not fair when you pay so much money

    Thank you for your feedback. We would firstly like to point out that all Sykes/Menai Holiday properties are independently owned and maintained by individual companies on behalf of the owners. As you will have seen from your stay at Tamarisk, we, as owners, have spent a lot of time and money preparing the property to a high standard so as to give guests the best holiday experience possible. This includes sourcing and selecting the right management company to clean and maintain the property on our behalf. We take the cleanliness of the property extremely seriously, as do the company who clean and maintain it on our behalf. The feedback you have provided is extremely surprising to both ourselves and our management company as this is completely out of character with feedback provided by other guests. As your feedback has been provided 3 weeks after your arrival at the property it is very difficult for both us and our management company to investigate this matter. We have asked Sykes/Menai Holidays to contact yourselves to ask for any photographs of the standard of cleaning you experienced to enable us to investigate this matter further. We await your response. We would encourage all guests to report any issues they find with the property, including the standard of cleanliness immediately so that they can be dealt with straight away. An extensive information pack is provided in the property which includes contact details for both Sykes/Menai Holidays as well as provided direct contact details for us as owners.

    We absolutely love moelfre and to have this gorgeous gem of a bungalow with sea views was just amazing. The decor of the place was completely to our tastes and very well done and spotlessly clean. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. Particularly love the garden area, one morning we had cuppas on the decking whilst watching the sun rise, absolutely priceless! One bit of constructive feedback would be to provide bigger bath towels for drying your body when getting out of the shower/bath as the ones provided are pretty small. Other than that very minor point, absolutely faultless and wonderful stay! Thanks

    I particularly liked the thoughtful way the decking had been done to enable beautiful sea views while relaxing outside. The cottage had everything you needed in abundance, beds very comfortable, lounge comfortable and larger than it looked online and it was an easy walk to the village shop or a quick walk to the harbour in the centre of the village. If I had a criticism it would be about the bath towels - a bit on the small size for adults! They had also been washed with a softener which made them less absorbent. Dishwasher tablets, squeezy and bin bags also available. One word of warning - avoid Anne's Pantry in the village unless you are prepared to pay an astronomical £3.00 for a cup of tea!

The property

Tamarisk is a contemporary, single-storey cottage resting in Moelfre, Anglesey, boasting a stylish décor and a beautiful garden with views of both Lligwy Beach and the sea.

Ideal for a family getaway, the cottage is conveniently located within easy reach of local amenities and the beach, making for a wonderful base from which to explore.

Arriving at the cottage, park up in one of the off-road parking spaces and make you way into your home away from home.

Two steps up lead you into the hallway where you can kick off your shoes before moving through to the well-equipped kitchen to rustle up a meal for your group.

Take advantage of the self-catering facilities including an electric oven and hob, a wine cooler and a handy dishwasher.

Gather in the conservatory to feast at the dining table while you discuss the next day's adventures; this space is also home to a plush armchair and a Smart TV, perfect if you want to escape the group.

When it is time to relax, head to the sitting room, light the woodburning stove and sink into the L-shaped sofa to snuggle up with your loved ones.

As the evening draws to a close, retire to the bedrooms for some well-earned rest; the cottage hosts a king-size and a triple bunk, ideal for the younger members of the group, along with a bathroom where you can freshen up and prepare for your day.

Outside, make the most of the garden and cook your meals alfresco on the barbecue, before admiring the sea views from the egg-shaped swing seat.

For things to do while at the cottage, take a trip to some ancient ruins nearby; Din Lligwy is the site of a Roman settlement, while The Lligwy Cromlech shows historical ruins of a burial chamber consisting of enormous stone slabs.

For more history, a short drive will take you to Beaumaris Castle, famously known as 'the greatest castle never built' and Beaumaris Gaol, a former prison, now home to a museum offering a fascinating insight on the prison's history.

Enjoy a peaceful stroll around Penrhyn Castle and gardens, a Neo-Norman piece of architecture with an impressive painting collection as well as an industrial railway museum, just a short drive from the cottage.

Children and animal lovers can spend a day at Anglesey Sea Zoo, learning about a whole host of sea species while resting on the picture-perfect Anglesey coast.

Closer to the property, why not treat your family to a meal out before returning to your abode?

The nearby Kimmel Arms, is just a stroll away and offers a traditional pub grub menu to tuck into.

With so much to see and do in the area, choose Tamarisk as your base for an exciting trip to North Wales.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
