• "There are a lot of positive things about this property."

  It is beautifully decorated and all the furniture looks lovely. It is in a great position for the shops, cafes and waterfront. Parking is easy, it is quiet, and once the central heating is on, it is warm. There are a few things that are not so good though. The front door will not fully open so getting bags in and out is a bit awkward. All the internal doors are swollen so you have to pull hard to get them open and really push them to get them closed. As other people have said, the lighting in the main room is extremely poor and it is gloomy and difficult to read even with all the lights on. The lights themselves are strangely organised and we found it difficult to switch them on and off. The fire is very fiddly to light. Having the fridge outside of the kitchen is a bit annoying when you're preparing food. I felt it would make much more sense to have the fridge in the kitchen, and get rid of the kitchen table, as having two dining tables and two sets of dining chairs seemed unnecessary to me. It was a nice gesture to find a bottle of milk in the fridge. We used it, but too late realised it was off and our food and drinks were spoiled. We looked at the bottle and it said use by 6th October. We arrived as arranged on 8th October. I appreciate that this was a genuine mistake but it didn't get the holiday off to a great start. The bathroom is also quite difficult to use and the shower and bath are hard to access for anyone with even slightly reduced mobility. Some of these issues would be less difficult in the summer, and for some people they would not be issues at all. It really is a very well presented house. It was big enough for two of us; I feel it would be a bit of a squeeze for four people, but again in the summer, it would probably be easier.

• "Our only problem was the lighting in the lounge which was not adequate for «crafty« folk like us (ie needlework)."

  Otherwise the whole experience in the cottage was excellent. We would definitely return. Thank you.

• "The cottage was lovely and so convenient for Beaumaris High Street and just round the corner from central Bakery which is excellent."

  The lounge/dinner was lovely with comfortable seating. The kitchen and utility were well equipped although I would have liked a Wok to cook with. The bedrooms were quite tight and, being fussy, we would have liked a king-size rather than double beds but there is insufficient room. However the beds were very comfortable. We managed to park in the street and found it was very peaceful, although the church bells and seagulls doing their rendition of happy feet were distracting the first night for my wife. Loved the place and would certainly look to book next year.

• "Lovely little cottage."

  Well equipped kitchen where everything was thought of. I even did my washing before I left. Probably a new sofa and chairs wouldn’t go amiss. The only real negative would be the television. It took a day to get it working. It’s freesat and a signal nightmare. Top tip.,if you will use the tv and have a fire stick then take it with you We did and it was a godsend. Other than that it was perfect. Spotlessly clean. Comfy beds . Beaumaris is lovely. Plenty to see and do. Nice shops and cafes.,The cottage is a 10 minute walk to town. The George and dragon pub does lovely fish n chips.don’t bother with the fish n chip shops. They don’t get particularly good reviews, don’t look clean and are run by teenagers who probably can’t be bothered. The Sunday lunch was also great at the George. All in all a lovely stay.

  The kitchen is well equipped with tidy storage. I couldn’t get the tv to work during my stay but the Wi-Fi worked throughout which was great. The garden is starting to come alive for Spring and the cottage is perfectly situated for refreshing walks to and around Beaumaris seafront.

• "Bryn Haf was a great base in Beaumaris."

  Close to the high street and a few minutes walk from the seafront and pier. We had no problem finding a parking space either. Cottage was lovely and had everything you might need - the only recommendation I would have is potentially a house umbrella for unorganised people like me

• "We’ve had a wonderful stay at Bryn Haf."

  The property was just as it is in the photos, spotlessly clean and an ideal base to explore Beaumaris with just a few minutes walk from the shops and beach. The kitchen was spacious and really well equipped. We cooked throughout the holiday and wasn’t missing a thing, was like home from home. Bedrooms were lovely and plenty of storage and hangers. It was nice to have the smallest room as storage so we could put our cases out of the way. Nothing really bad to say about the cottage, maybe just that the garden might not be suitable for families with small children as was on different levels with steps but was perfect for us and such a sun trap. There is on street parking and although we never got outside the house we were never too far away.

• "On street parking is ‘hit and miss’ - could be a problem with young children."

  Kitchen could be better equipped - slow cooker, microwave dishes etc would have been welcome. Welcome pack could be improved - a pint of milk, small packet of biscuits, half a dozen tea bags and solidified instant coffee was disappointing. Would only rebook if there wasn’t an alternative.

• "Bryn Haf is a really lovely and cosy cottage."

  Great position in Beaumaris, close to the amenities but far enough away in a quiet street and you feel calm and relaxed. There was an issue with the tv, in the fact that it didn’t work at all, and this had been reported in a previous review and again to Sykes a few days before our holiday. However, the owner got people on to it immediately and the problem was resolved within a couple of days. The rest of our holiday was lovely.

  The TV was working fine, But the seagulls have been very challenging in altering its position. We changed the Ariel to the satellite dish and this should resolve the problem permanently. We are grateful to Mrs Richmond and her family for her patience. Property Owner

• "Extremely good cottage, spacious, light and airy the decor was tasteful and relaxing."

  Very comfortable beds, towels were great quality too. The kitchen was well equipped and the table in there was lovely to sit at for breakfast as the light poured in. We were blessed with great weather the majority of our stay so took advantage of the seating outside seating area. Very tranquil environment and a short walk to the town with plenty of shops and amenities. A great base to explore the area and returning there after a day out was a delight. Lovely place to stay and we will return. * Not a complaint as we were not bothered about watching tv, however we did notice that there was no reception at all for any of the channels. We were trying to catch up on the news.

• "There was no loo roll!"

  I assume this was a mistake. There were also bedside lamps with no bulbs, and no plug available to plug them in, so were only for the "look". Not sure if there were any spare bulbs should you need them. More cutlery would be useful, to avoid having to wash up. Unclear how to use recycling. That said it is a 9.5 our of ten cottage.

  Thank you for your comments which are very much appreciated. The lamps work very well but someone appears to have removed the extension lead which enables both lamps to work. I am very disappointed that there were no bulbs as these are checked with every changeover. I have raised this with my cleaning company. I have also purchased a second set of cutlery although I do pride myself on having one of the best equipped kitchens! I am so glad you enjoyed your stay otherwise. It means a lot to me.

  Two points to note: There wasn't enough cutlery, for use with the dishwasher. The recycling needs to be explained in much more detail, I had to check on the council's website. The parking was a nightmare, but there's not a lot anyone can do about that. Apart from those points, the cottage was perfect.

  Saying at Bryan Haf was also a pleasure. Beutufully presented and well equipped it provided a centrally convenient location and a relaxing quiet environment. Okay it would be nice if it had sea views and is a cottage style typical of the area, but do not be put off by any external approach. It's a really good base to enjoy Beaumaris and Anglesey.

  Bryn Haf is a lovely house, thoughtfully refurbished, furnished in traditional style rather than contemporary, but extremely tasteful and excellent quality pieces Such a bright and sunny house it gets the sun all day, and the back garden is a fantastic suntrap in the afternoon. The house has everything we could have wanted for our week there, including a hairdryer which may not be listed online Feedback to Sykes local representative about a bedroom window that didnt open was dealt with immediately when the office next opened. The house was spotless, but I did point out to Sykes locally a couple of things that should be taken into consideration for future renters All in all we had a wonderful stay, and we would highly recommend Bryn Haf......Enjoy your stay :)

  We didn't touch system as folder of instructions left by owners said heating was set to timed and not to touch the settings so we didn't however this needs to be addressed

  Thank you for your feedback, I am surprised to learn the heating was on continuous as it is always on a timer. There is also an emergency contact number for occupants and this would have quickly resolved the issue. I do hope you enjoyed your stay. Kind regards Property Owner

  The beds were super comfortable. Very handy for all amenities in Beaumaris, yet in a quiet location. Road side parking was ok, but may be more difficult in the height of the holiday season. Beaumaris was a good centre to explore the rest of Anglesey, and it was lovely to stroll round the town straight out of your own front door. We were lucky to hear Beaumaris brass band practising outdoors. Communication from Sykes was excellent, especially regarding Covid guidelines.

  One point I would make however is that they should include a Hoover. As when living there for a week it would be nice to be able to hoover occasionally. Downside is parking was extremely difficult to park in front of cottage after days out. Probably wouldn’t book again as for us that is a major flaw with cottage.

Parking outside the property was not a problem, and it was only a few streets away from the main shopping street. Beaumaris is a lovely little town with plenty of shops, cafes and places to visit. Not to be missed is a cruise to Puffin Island from the pier at Beaumaris. The cottage is an ideal base for touring Anglesey and just a short distance from Menai Bridge so easy access to North Wales.
