  • "We have stayed at over 20 properties in Rhosneigr, and Laneton has the potential to be up there with some of the better ones."

    Sadly however, it is not. The positives are: Great location, including being able to enter through the rear garden. Plenty of off road parking, if you can negotiate the extremely narrow driveway and the 2 boats Sadly however, the negatives, many of which have been noted before, but not addressed, far outweigh the positives. Some of the issues are inexcusable when they have been reported as far back as a year ago, others feel like it is just a lack of foresight and planning into what would work best for guests. The negatives include: Cheap floating floors, which creak loudly with every footstep, throughout the house - once the first guest is awake, everyone is awake. The L shaped sofa is quite badly stained and will not accommodate the 7 guests the property is designed for. There needs to be at least one additional comfortable armchair so each guest can sit. I'm not including the footstools as not only do they not provide back support, they were also mouldy along the sides. The kitchen is not well provisioned - there is little point in providing a dishwasher, if you only provide 7 mugs, 7 plates and 7 bowls for your 7 guests. Necessity means you have to hand wash each item after each use, or if you want to serve food on a plate as we did, there isn't then enough to eat off. In addition, as mentioned in previous feedback, all the knives are blunt (no sharpener), scissors don't actually work, one set of tongs, also broken etc. The brand of coffee maker isn't named in the listing, so you can't take your own pods with you to make use of it, and there was stale water in it anyway, so I wouldn't trust it had been properly descaled etc recently anyway. There was a leak under the sink, meaning the dishwasher and washing machine tablets we brought and placed under there were ruined as well as other items. We fixed this. The boiler lost pressure while we were there, meaning no heating or hot water, as it was new year's day, my husband also repressured this, but looking back at reviews, I can see this had been an issue as far back as June. The shower screen in the main bathroom is in 2 pieces, consequently when you shower, water pours through the gap between, onto the floor. The shower screen in the ensuite is still as described last March - very difficult to close once inside as it doesn't fit properly and despite the best use of a plunger, overflowed after the shower had been on for just a couple of minutes. The ceiling in the ensuite is covered in mould from a leaking skylight, not pleasant to look at. The double room at the rear has a door to the garden. It is a full glass door, but there is no screen or curtain on it meaning light floods in. If you put curtains over windows, why not over glass doors a metre away from where you are sleeping? Other examples of simple things which would enhance the stay include having a mirror in the main bedroom near a socket - there is a mirror behind the door, but the socket to plug in a hairdryer is on the other side of the room so you can't look in it whilst drying your hair. A personal preference for me would be a king size bed in the master rather than the small double. Instead there are 2 massive bedside tables, which ironically have quite small drawers in them. Smaller tables and a decent sized bed with better quality pillows would much enhance that room, as would better quality towels; the ones provided are very small. As there was no tumble dryer, and the weather over new year was torrential, we had to make use of the radiators. The paint behind the radiators was flaking, so some of our clothes ended up with white paint on them. As I mentioned, the property has the potential to be very nice indeed but poor maintenance, not enough thought about guest experience and choosing cheaper options for beds, flooring, towels, kitchenware etc made this our most disappointing stay in Rhosneigr yet. Generally the property feels tired and worn and in my experience the way guests treat a property reflects the way they find it: When the shower ceiling is covered in mould, the shower door doesn't shut and is covered in limescale and the shower floods after just 2 minutes, guests don't feel the need to squeegee down the glass, ensure no water sits on the tiles etc. If you provide a top quality product, then guest will treat it as so. We have already booked elsewhere for next New Year I'm afraid. (Note: I have photographs, but seem unable to add these to this review anywhere.)

  • "This is the 3rd time we have stayed at Laneton, the 1st time being shortly after the property was refurbished."

    The standard of cleanliness has deteriorated, the 3 sofas showing numerous stains, even still being damp from cleaning attempts, various debris under beds including sticky sweets. The saucepans all required cleaning before use due to food deposits inside, the kitchen knives are blunt. The ensuite shower door doesn't close correctly due the the side panel coming away from the side support, result is lots of water leaking into dry areas of floor outside cubicle. There is lots of damp staining and suspected mould around the Velux window recess in the en-suite. On arriving at the property first impressions aren't good due to rusting chair on porch, dirty plastic bin and grotty door mat along with a strip of roof felt hanging down. On looking out onto the decking area at the back the table/chairs and seating is in bad repair, , the umbrella in bits and lying across the decking area, green algae on the chairs, basically unusable. There are 2 items that are not functional regarding fire safety, the fire extinguisher has no hose and nozzle fitted, so of no use in a fire, the 2 x emergency lighting torches in the hall do not work. With some TLC/maintenance/deep clean this property would be back to its original standard, it is in and ideal position, is well appointed and fitted out, just let down to a lack of attention to details. With a couple of days work

    Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear that Laneton didnt meet the standards that it did previously. We have taken on board all your comments and discussed the cleanliness issue with the changeover team. With regards to the other issues regarding the condition of the property I was unaware of these problems but will travel to the property this weekend to put right what I can. We not looking to make excuses but it has been a busy season and there have been few opportunities for us to visit the house since the summer and check that everything is as it should be. As a customer you rightly expected better from the property and we hope that you will return and see the improvements. We will discuss with Sykes as the letting agents if there is a way to offer you a partial refund or discount on future bookings to in some way show we take your holiday enjoyment and quality seriously. Once again, our apologies. Regards Guy and Layny Property Owner

  • "We were two couples staying for 11 days, and had a very good time."

    We'd been to Rhosneigr before - the location of the property is excellent, quiet but very close to the shops, pub and sea. The place is well equipped and clean, and on the one half-day that was sunny it was lovely to sit on the verandah. The dog enjoyed the garden. We did find the bed a bit hard which isn't uncommon in rentals. We only gave this 4 out of 5 as on arrival there was no toilet paper, no tea/coffee to have a moment of relaxing before unloading, and no instructions about the house/heating/wifi/bins - you have to work it out for yourself and quite possibly get the bins wrong, which many people don't want to do these days. It's really really not hard to leave some instructions and some tea bags/loo roll. We also phoned the agent half way through to ask if we could have a change of towels and sheets and were told we'd get a call back but heard nothing. We'd rather get a straight no than be ignored. It's often the little things and attention to detail that make the difference between a good holiday and a great one. This one was good.

  • "Lovely property, and location."

    The ill fitting shower door in en-suite and only half screen remaining on bathroom shower have been mentioned before. Ok but need attention. All utensils and equipment fine, fab property and we had a lovely time. Lack of an info pack and only a sheet to say to leave dirty laundry in IKEA bags, when none were left, were an annoyance but not a problem. Am a regular visitor to Rhosneigr and would happily come to this property again.

  • "We contacted Sykes before the start of our holiday about issues raised by previous occupants."

    When we arrived they had not been resolved by the owner and while Sykes contacted us on the Saturday and said the local office would be in touch this never happened. Issues raised - poo bags under tree: Reported in May 2023 - eucalyptus tree cuttings and other garden debris put in a mound at the side of house, eucalyptus is toxic to animals: Reported October 2022 - garden furniture needed cleaning, some of the seats are green: Reported May 2023 - shower screen missing in the main bathroom making the shower unusable: Reported March 2023 - black bin overflowing and only 1 blue bin with the lid missing so no idea what could be recycled. We had to take all our recycling to the bins at the library: Reported March 2023 - No oven gloves: Reported March 2023 - Washing machine would not spin: Reported in May 2023 - we had no hot water one morning and the boiler needed repressurising. This was the only new issue which was resolved during our stay. The seating in the lounge also had stains from previous occupants but we covered it with throws and didn’t raise this. It should also be mentioned in the description that the entrance to parking is very narrow. We were very disappointed with the lack of response from the owner. The property is well placed and spacious but the issues raised let it down considerably.

  • "We enjoyed our stay at Laneton, but they’re are some issues that detract from the quality of the property."

    First, the positives. Laneton is well-situated for the local shops, pubs, and beach. It was clean. It is spacious, comfortable, and has a large enough garden for two dogs. Now the negatives. The property needs some tlc and maintenance. The door of the en-suite shower didn’t close properly. In the main bathroom the shower panel was propped up behind the door making the overhead shower unusable. The central heating system was very noisy. The garden was dog secure but due to problems of debris was not especially dog friendly. There were problems with the bins (the black bin was full, the green bin had no lid and was full of water, two of the blue bins were missing). Finally, there was no cottage information telling you about refuse collection, location of fuse box and stop taps, etc. Oven gloves were also missing. Kitchen knives were blunt. The internet was slow and intermittent.

  • "I stayed in the property the same week last year & there was a leak on the bi folding doors then, I thought with it being the end of the season that it would be fixed at some point when empty."

    When I returned this year there were now two leaks on the bifolds with kitchen roll stuffed in to try & stop it. with the weather it required mopping up a few times a day as it was a slip hazard for the dog or people coming in & out, plus I didn’t want it to soak into the wooden floor!! Also with being there last year, I let my dog out the back as soon as I arrived as I knew it was secure, but I should have checked as there was a pane of glass on the path & he cut his leg!! I know it had been & was very windy as furniture was all over the place, but there is no way a pane of glass blew without smashing. It is a beautiful property & perfectly located, but I have booked another property for the same time next year as I don’t want to be worrying about water leaks while on holiday.

  • "A puddle of water was discovered near the the patio doors due to some bad damp above."

    Some Cooking utensils are dated and need replacing. The fridge door does not seal at the bottom. Cracked toilet seat. Poor seal at the bottom of the over bath shower screen. The place needs some TLC really. Although the property is dog friendly, there is a large eucalyptus tree in the garden. These trees are highly toxic to dogs. It had been cut and all the dead branches were stuffed down the side of the house. Nice location close to pub, shop, takeaways and beach.

    It has a perfect position in the village with only a few minutes walk to the beaches, shops and restaurants, yet it’s so quiet and relaxing. Our party included a baby, a toddler, parents, grandparents and dogs and we all had enough room.

The property

Within the quaint coastal village of Rhosneigr is this charming bungalow cottage, Laneton, offering a light, contemporary interior and based in a fabulous location for enjoying the delights of this seaside resort.

Suitable for a family of seven, it offers three bedrooms, and with plenty of activities nearby you're sure to find something for everyone.

Park up on the large driveway, hosting enough space for three to four cars, and enter into your new home away from home; find the open-plan living space to be a tranquil space where a collection of sofas and armchairs have been arranged around the classic woodburning stove within the fireplace, and the Smart TV.

Rest here after a walk along the coast and catch up on a favourite show, before deciding whose turn it is to rustle up the evening meal; find the kitchen to be a sleek design with muted grey units and bright white counter tops, enjoying natural light from all around with the dual aspect windows.

Make use of the excellent range of appliances, and head to the hub of the home, gathering around the dining table sharing wonderful company and conversation.

Take some drinks outside to the decked area within the enclosed garden, and relish the last of a balmy summer evening before calling it a night.

Choose from three charming bedrooms; the master bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, as well as hosting the utility cupboard where the washing machine lives, there is another double, and finally there's a triple bunk room, with all the bedrooms enjoying a Smart TV and attractive and quality decor and furnishings.

From Laneton you can enjoy exploring the village of Rhosneigr on foot, with several shops nearby to pick up any necessities, and a collection of pubs and restaurants to dine in when you want to indulge in a night off from cooking.

Grab an ice cream from the local ice cream parlour and head down to the beach for a day of sandcastles and sea when the weather is on your side.

Even in winter, walks along the Anglesey coast offer a fabulous activity, and provide you with gorgeous coastal scenes and views.

Hop in the car and visit Holy Island, where the beautiful Trearddur Bay is an ever popular and loved idyllic spot, or delight in a day trip over to Ireland, catching the ferry from Holyhead.

Laneton is a wonderful abode awaiting you and your loved ones to create lasting memories in Anglesey.

The village has a varied history including a 6th century church, tales of smugglers, famous off-shore shipwrecks and from the Edwardian era it has been a fashionable holiday destination. Today it is known for its magnificent beaches and renowned watersports, providing some of the best windsurfing and kitesurfing in the UK, with tuition available in the village. Activities include fishing, sailing, sand yachting, wreck diving, golf and hours of family fun on the enormous sandy beaches.
