  • "We have been coming here for some years."

    It is the most beautiful property and it is an honour to be able to stay here. Silly things need checking The key box needs replacing Check lightbulbs. Washing up liquid. Dishwasher tabs. Blinds and blown windows in conservatory. Nevertheless it’s a wonderful holiday home and charming housekeeper.

  • "We have been to this property a few times now and love it."

    It's in a fabulous position overlooking the bay. We had a problem with the washing machine from day one but the owner was quick to sort this for us. Would recommend it the property to anyone.

  • "A wonderful property with good views - let down by a few niggles like no can opener, no cafetiere, no tea-pot, no re-cyclying instructions, sticking light switch in snooker room - all of which could easily be fixed."

  • "The location of this property is amazing and excellent especially if you like peace and quiet and a beach accessible from the garden."

    It is very spacious and adequate for a multi generational family of 8 like ours with comfortable furniture and beds. We enjoyed a really good family holiday there. The family love playing snooker and so the full size snooker table was a huge draw for us and tho many games were enjoyed on it during the day the fact that the lights over the table did not work was very disappointing and frustrating when wanting play in the evenings. I did phone Sykes on second day to find out where the switch for lights was and they contacted the cleaner who passed on a message via Sykes but sadly the light switch does not work and Sykes told me they had sent email to the house owner who never got back to us. There are also several table lamps especially in the conservatory and some over head lights in rooms which needs bulbs replacing and also the head in the shower cubicle in the house bathroom is broken too. A few extra kitchen items like a grater and potato peeler would have been useful as the one there is broken. This is a beautiful home and great place for a holiday and on the surface is clean but a little bit more attention to deeper cleaning (quite a few cobwebs here and there) would keep it in top shape.

  • "The house was a get size for our family holiday of 7 adults though in both the lounge and conservatory there was not enough seating."

    The comfiest bed was apparently the twin downstairs. The location and views were beautiful and so peaceful. Lovely short walk to pub and bistro though not really suitable in the dark. Snooker table very popular in the evening, unfortunately we did not find the light switch for it until penultimate night which was annoying. A little sticker or something would have been handy. Unusually for a holiday let no instructions on how to use anything or where to find anything. Owner did call us the day before arrival to kindly let us know we could arrive earlier than stated time. We did text owner on arrival with a few slight maintenance issues, on departure day he replied advising he was aware of the issues.

  • "Stayed here three times, love it."

    There are quirky things about it and it would be easy to write a list of ‘could do with ‘ but none of these is important. For me and my poorly husband it is our perfect place, as a carer, I can relax so easily and recuperate. It’s comforting to know the hospital is very close by. So sad we might not be able to rent again, would love yo go back in October.

  • "Fabulous property & views of bay."

    Would have liked an information pack especially for bin collection times, local doctors etc. Peeling knives, baking trays, bottle opener and can opener are things that would have been useful to have had. Having said this we enjoyed immensely and would love to return.

    The views are amazing and the house was spotless. We would definitely book again.

  • "Exceptionally large and comfortable property, stunning location, and views."

    Excellent welcome basket. Whilst sleeps eight comfortably, seating areas in the lounge and conservatory accommodate five at most and are a little tired. The kitchen is under equipped for a party of eight, lack of mugs and glasses require constant washing up. Vegetable knives, a cheese grater, baking sheets and microwave dishes would be helpful. Difficult to clean grill pan etc due to no cleaning cloths or materials. The lack of an information guide including contact details for cleaner, caretaker or owners leaves Sykes Cottages as the only point of contact for issues, maintenance etc. Minor maintenance issues marred the overall experience, one ensuite shower requires deep cleaning of grout. We reported several items on arrival which were still not resolved upon departure. A beautiful property appears to have been abandoned by owners to the care of Sykes Cottages.

  • "Stayed in June 2023 with 3 generations including 4y/o and 20-month-old."

    An absolute treat - beautiful property, superbly maintained, a big thank you to the owners. Points raised in the review from a week or so earlier had clearly been resolved. Setting is incredible, took my 4y/o down the steps to explore the crabs and made some wonderful memories. Location perfect for exploring Anglesey and surrounding area. Note for families that we found we couldn’t use standard pressure-fit stair gates but instead we just about managed to put one on a bedroom and used bungee cords to deter toddler from steps down to laundry, and this worked ok for us. Only suggestion is that an info pack would’ve been useful - we had to figure a few things out for ourselves but all was quite straightforward. Snooker room (with a keyboard too) was a wonderful bonus and really nicely done - adults often retired to that in the evenings! The deck area was nicely furnished too. Property is a lovely place to spend time especially when weather postpones plans. Certainly hope to return in future.

  • "We love this property."

    It suits us so well. Sadly it just needs some management. Just silly things like dish cloth, dish washing liquid, clocks not working because of dead batteries. No Cleaning equipment particularly in the bathrooms. The most important thing missing were instructions , where to find WiFi password, nearest hospital etc. We had a problem with the dish washer and despite David, the housekeeper mending it, Having said all this, we have booked it again for September . We just love the tranquility and position.

  • "On arrival at 3pm (2nd June) the property was still being cleaned, we were asked to come back at 4pm (no problem)."

    The couple cleaning the property informed us that the dishwasher door panel was broken and had been removed. They said they would inform Sykes and have it repaired asap (it couldn't be used as the door kept springing shut). We phoned Sykes the next day as we hadn't heard from them. A customer contact was logged and someone arranged to call on Sunday (4th June) between 1200-1300 to repair the washer. Nobody arrived or contacted us to say they couldn't make it. The washer was still broken when we left on Friday (9th June) - no contact from the repairer or Sykes all week. When we arrived the 4 wheelie bins were full (that full the lids didn't close). The previous guests had complained in the book that the bins hadn't been emptied (so rubbish had been building up for a while), by now the contents were rancid. Sykes were told the day after we arrived (same time as the washer complaint) but again nothing happened and we left with rubbish piled up everywhere - I can supply a photograph as we left. The property is lovely but Sykes let it down.

  • "This is a wonderful cottage."

    It is very spacious and comfortable. The position is truly amazing with lots of good restaurants and supermarkets close by. It would have been good to have an information wallet contains WiFi code, things to do, places to eat, doctors address, dentist and hospital. I would have liked a chopping board, water jug and more mugs. But none of that would stop me going again . Thank you to the owners, we loved your cottage.

The bay is very shallow, and at low tide almost 10 square miles of sand is uncovered to provides safe bathing, perfect for family fun, fishing and miles of stunning, scenic walks. The large bay attracts a huge number of waterfowl and wading birds, including shell duck, grey plover, purple sandpipers, curlew, oystercatchers and dunlin. Only 3 miles away is the delightful medieval town of Beaumaris, which boasts a 13th century moated castle, lovely buildings housing excellent shops, olde-worlde pubs, restaurants, bistros, museums, as well as a golf course and exciting pleasure boat and sea fishing trips. This is a beautiful location on the east coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey.
