Mrs Marshall September 2020

“Fantastic holiday home with lots of equipment for extended family group.”

Was disappointed that the sofa recliners didn’t work as advertised but didn’t spoil the holiday. Hob also extremely slow which was a little frustrating. Main bedroom was huge and really nice space with en suite and walk in wardrobe- much better than the photos.

Mr Davies August 2020

“The house was outstanding, very clean and well equipped, fantastic location for shops restaurants and beach.”

If I was visiting Rhosneigr I would book this property again.

Mrs Horan November 2019

“Fabulous cottage great location everything we needed.”

My only negative is the heating wasn’t on so the house was freezing and took ages to warm up. We followed the instructions on the panel and it still wouldn’t come on because the boiler was turned off

“Before arriving in Rhosneigr, we had some reservations about whether there would be enough room for our extended family – three adult children with spouses; one in-law; one baby; one pre-school child.”

In the event, all worked out well and happily – we used the snug as the nursery – and there were enough bathroom facilities (and the all-important hot water) for everyone. With a drinks fridge in the kitchen to supplement the tall fridge/freezer, another conventional fridge in the shed to take the barbecue food, and plenty of cupboard space, there was also sufficient room for all the food and drink that our "cook it from scratch" family could wish for. Incredibly, we never ran out of crockery, glasses or cutlery – this must be one of the best-stocked properties in that respect. We were fortunate with the weather, and most lunches and evening meals were eaten outside, though we found it best to move the outdoor table and chairs to the lawn at the south of the house to take advantage of the sun. The property is on the corner of Ffordd Belan and the A4080, but noise wasn't an issue, even when we were in the garden. Having been to Rhosneigr before, we knew what to expect, and Firhaven being near Llydan Beach as well as the village centre was a bonus ... altogether a very convenient location. Provided we can synchronise everyone's diaries, we hope to be back in 2021.

Mrs Smith April 2019

“There were 12 in our party - 3 generations - 6 adults and 6 children ( aged from 4 to 10 ).”

Firhaven was perfect for us! Plenty of space - don't think the photos do it justice. The kitchen is well equipped , the "welcome pack" appreciated, all nice clean and tidy. The outdoor space is great, we made use of the BBQ, and the area is secure for children . A bonus having the use of wetsuits/boards/Beach toys etc.The owners seem to have everything covered! The location, within easy walking distance of two beautiful beaches was perfect. We loved it and would highly recommend Firhaven.

Mr Clarke October 2018

“Three couples instead of four in our party made the holiday break.”

It may have been a bit of a squeeze around the kitchen table for 8 and would have needed an extra settee or two chairs to sit around the fire in the lounge. Bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds, plenty of hot water and efficient central heating but would have liked more towels. As our numbers were less we were able to use those from other rooms. Nice to have bread, butter, cake and milk left for our arrival, however we needed to buy more toilet roll and dishwasher tablets, neither were there spare bulbs for one our two blown ones and although it was not desperate to our needs we could not get the televisions in the lounge and the games room to work. Both indicated no signal when switched on.There were no instructions for use to hand. Nevertheless we all enjoyed our stay in Firhaven and would certainly visit again. I am sure those details will be seen to for future visitors.

“Superb quality cottage.”

Well positioned cottage near beach, great amenities in the village, two little goldmines grocery shops, friendly people, some individual shops too, especially the little Icecream shop a real favourite. " Firhaven" itself was wonderfully equipped for the twelve of us, very spacious, we were six adults & six teenagers,, the sleeping arrangements were very easy,with the size of the rooms, & very easy to keep clean,loved the outside space, where we managed to eat out most of the time. wet suits & body boards were available , the boys had great fun with these.. all in all a great week here.

Mrs Morris July 2018

“What a fabulous cottage in a wonderful Village, very impressed with" Firhaven", 5 good sized bedrooms, all very comfortable, loved the white Linen.”

.& soft pillows..loads of crockery/cutlery, all spotless..great outside space . exactly 2 mins from the beach, the village has everything needed for a relaxing stay.. Myself, five Daughters & six teenage grandchildren had loads of space, to do our own thing if needed, would definitely recommend this cottage.

- Mrs Morris, July 2018
Mrs Adamson June 2018

“We were a family of four generations and we were all delighted with the house.”

The weather was splendid and we loved the fact it was so easy to get down to the beach, walking or finding a place to park the car. It was my two great grandsons second week of half term. Ages six and eight. They said it was fab. We're sorry the bins weren't emptied but they were placed at the end of the hedge before Wednesday night as instructed. But lovely holiday. Thanks

- Mrs Adamson, June 2018
Mrs Fairbank May 2018

“Others on the reviews commented that the cottage was “tired”, which was true.”

However, the location is great, the bedrooms excellent with nice bedding and towels provided, facilities good including a washing machine and spin dryer, meaning my daughter did not go home with a mountain of dirty clothing, and the house was spacious enough for three children to play for a whole wet morning. The second lounge was a boon for a three generation family, too.

- Mrs Fairbank, May 2018
Mrs Thompson April 2018

“The house had good facilities and very local to the centre of the village and beaches.”

Owners were helpful The only concerns were that the house information provided needs to up dated and more detailed. Cleaning of the property needs to be reviewed. Basic parts of the house had not been cleaned to an average standard. Some of this property needs up dating and there is a lack of basic repairs being completed. This is a detail that has been reported on before

- Mrs Thompson, April 2018
Mrs Foster March 2018

“Spacious house near to village,beach restaurants, shops.”

. Lots of bathrooms which is great with a large group. Well stocked with crockery and cutlery. All bed linens and towels provided, even a welcome pack of Welsh goodies, We were a family of 6 adults,3 children and a toddler and there was ample room for everybody. Had a really good time even though the weather could have been kinder.

“Brilliant House for large family holiday”

Superbly equipped house description didn't do it justice. Only 5 minutes walk from both main beaches. Ample room for all of the family ,4 bathrooms, well equipped kitchen, very clean throughout, great outside areas, wet suits etc available plentiful garden furniture, best holiday rental property we have used in Rhosneigr in last 10 years.

Miss Hough March 2017

“The accommodation was AMAZING!”

Really lovely and presented amazingly, in a great location. Amazing quality for the price and would not hesitate to rebook if we are ever in the area again!

- Miss Hough, March 2017
Mrs Hayward August 2016

“The property is in need of tlc, lots of little jobs which need doing eg gr floor bathroom door lock broken, window locks broken, front and back doors rickety, TV not working in second lounge, door in one of the twin bedrooms won't shut, dishwasher hinge broken.”

Recliner not working, BBQ left in a poor state, broken patio chairs, no chopping board in kitchen, tin opener broken....... A concern for us was that twice we turned on the tumbledrier and it didn't rotate, only heated up to a dangerously got level. We won't be booking this house again sadly as there were too many irritating things not working. The house itself is extremely spacious, bed linens lovely, perfect location but very much let down by these things.

- Mrs Hayward, August 2016
Simon R June 2016

“Smashing place to stay with plenty of room and good access to beach 5 mins walk”

Family group stay with 10 individuals House clean and tidy, a little tired around the edges in places but I guess it is a busy holiday let so you have to expect that but generally ticked all the boxes Will consider coming back!

- Simon R, June 2016

- Miss Jones, September 2015
Mrs Sharples June 2015

“Even though there were 11 of us of all ages, we never felt crowded.”

The house was very well laid out and thought had gone into additional equipment. The house is in an excellent location. We spoke with the owners beforehand and felt confident that they would be willing to help in any way, not that we needed it.

- Mrs Sharples, June 2015

- Mrs Taylor, August 2014
Mrs Hayward August 2014

“Spacious property and the large hallway was particularly helpful when getting back with the pushchair.”

The drying room with beach equipment and wetsuits was unexpected and very helpful. The location could not have been better - a few moments walk to the small village, to both beaches and the lake.

- Mrs Hayward, August 2014

A FlipKey verified reviewer October 2013

“A very happy family holiday”

We were a 3 generation party, grandparents, 2 sons and wives + 4 grandchildren aged 2,3,4,5. This property was ideal for our group. The sheltered patio was excellent for family lunches. There was plenty of room for everyone. There were excellent beaches within walking distance. Anglesey is ideal for small children with castle, farm parks etc when the beach is too windy!! We are returning next year. Perhaps the owners should keep a faults book as there seemed no way of reporting such matters as a broken blind and the cleaner seemed to be asked to do a great deal in the time allowed if the previous clients had not left the house in a good condition.

“1 st class”

There was nothing not to like. The location was terrific, it was close to everything... beach, shops and restaurants. The cottage was home from home, everything and every detail was considered. The island was lovely and the Welsh people are so friendly. We would love to go back again in the future!

- A FlipKey verified reviewer, August 2013
Mrs Taylor August 2013

“Firhaven was an excellent choice for our 3 generation family holiday.”

The sheltered outside seating area was good with a large selection of non breakable crockery to use there. There was plenty of room for children in the house. The position of this property meant we could walk to 2 excellent beaches, and even in mid August Rhosneiger was not crowded. Also there were several good attractions within easy travelling distance. We hope to go again.

- Mrs Taylor, August 2013
Mr Lindh June 2013

The cottage was stunning with plenty of room for our family of 8 with everything you'd need. the locals were all very friendly and there was plenty to do there. the beach and shops are just a short walk away and are beautiful.
