“We enjoyed being in the cottage and found it spacious and well insulated.”
The entrance porch is very useful for boots, coats and rucksacks as well as keeping the kitchen warm.The location is ideal for exploring the Peninsula, Anglesey and Snowdonia and the many Natioinal Trust places. The village is peaceful and quiet with a great pub The Goat Inn only 15 mins drive away which serves excellent food. Everyone was friendly and gave us information about the area. We were particularly fortunate with the weather, 6 out of our 7 days were sunshine!

The kitchen was not as clean as we would have expected eg. sticky handles on the drawers, crumbs and stains on the on the kitchen chairs, uncleaned glass in the kitchen door (which we cleaned) and the cupboards rather a jumble. It was well stocked with items and had everything you needed, just wanted a good sort out!
The Twin bedroom Velux window and the one in the twin bedroom ensuite would not open. This had been recorded in the visitor book by a by a previous occupant at the beginning of July. As the twin bedroom window is set on only opening a very small amount it can get very warm and there is no way to ventilate the room. In addition the extractor fan in the ensuite does not appear to work, we could see a switch high up on the ensuite wall but we could not reach it. This is bad for the property as there is no where for the steam to go.
The hot water is very efficient but we couldn't find a way to put the central heating on, even though it sounds simple in the instructions. We only wanted it on one evening for a short time but as the cooler weather comes the only way to get extra heat is to light the fire or use the plug in radiators. We used the radiator just for an hour. I'm sure the above problems can be easily sorted out and must not detract from an excellent holiday destination.
