"We found the owners to be friendly and helpful."
We felt the pictures on the website do not reflect the way we found the cottage to be
the Inside is very dark unless the lights are all on, no towels provided unlike what was stated on booking, owner did inform us the day before, difficult to dry damp towels especially after hot tub use, pictures show large towel rack in bathroom this was not there.
Bedroom carpet was in need of a shampoo or replacement.
The grounds are beautiful and picturesque, unfortunately weather didn't allow us much use of the outside space.
Overall we feel it is in need of a freshen up throughout.

"In the description of the property there was no mention that there was a 'pop up' campsite on the property, and the fact that campers queued for the one toilet outside Rhys Carreg."
This rather destroyed the hot tub experience, which was less secluded than photos suggested.
Due to Covid, the owner had limited what was provided, and whilst bringing towels isn't difficult, bringing a bath mat seemed extreme.
Also, this was the first holiday home for many years that didn't have some holiday basics in the cupboards - salt, foil, cling film etc.
There seemed a strange collection of glasses - one pint, one fruit juice, one tumbler - something of everything, but not pairs of things other than champagne flutes and wine glasses. It was lovely to have a dishwasher, but not enough crockery to use it economically ie putting it on every 2-3 days.
The lack of a map was also unusual in our experience.
The owner was very friendly and asked us if we needed anything but it seemed petty to ask for extra glasses so we made do.
Our holiday was still very enjoyable due to the location and weather.

"Had such a fantastic week at Carreg Rhys for our first wedding anniversary."
After a very rough few months of you-know-what, a week in Paradwys (Paradise) was exactly what we needed.
The cottage is extremely well equipped (even has a slow cooker), homely, cosy and has stunning views of Snowdonia. From the terrace garden at the back of the farmhouse, you can see over the valley to the coast and Newborough Forest, 360 rolling countryside and the summit of Mount Snowden.
Fiona, Peter and family (and pets) were really welcoming and friendly. They gave us loads of great tips on places to eat and things to do and see in the area. We also found it to be a great spot for journeys to other parts of the island, door to door, it might have taken about 40 minutes to get to South Stack lighthouse and it’s nearby Neolithic village, for example.
We thoroughly enjoyed busy(ish) days out and about, walking on the beaches, coastal paths and through the forest, squirrel and bird spotting, then having long soaks in the hot-tub before a nice, relaxed evening with some good food in front of the log burner. Idyllic place for a break, you’ll be sorry if you don’t book it when you’ve got the chance.

Fiona was really helpful telling us a couple of places that had outdoor seating and were her go to spots (Sandy Mount House did not disappoint) And we were pleasantly surprised on hoe many things were open with Covid precautions in place.

"Lovely snug cottage in a peaceful setting."
The owners go the extra mile to make it comfortable and a home from home. We appreciated the hamper of goodies too. A great base for some lovely days out - can recommend Treaddur Bay, South Stack, Beaumaris, and forest and dune walks at Newborough and Aberffraw. We had a great week. Many thanks.

"We really enjoyed staying at the cottage because it is a spacious yet cosy period cottage furnished with quality items."
Lovely stove and had chance to sit and watch some dvds with a glass of red in comfort! We had an excellent nights sleep as it was so peaceful and away from the buzz of the town and plenty of nice walks.
Our hosts could not do more to help us feel at home and the welcome hamper and fuel were lovely added extras. Great spot, great beaches, dog friendly so pretty much everywhere so a lovely break for us all.

"This is a very special little cottage with a fabulous hot tub."
Fiona and Peter are wonderful owners who place great value on making your stay memorable. Nothing is overlooked, from the warm personal welcome to the cottage, to the high standard of interior and loads of “extra special” touches (scented candles and real fire on arrival) too sumptuous bedding and furnishings that make Carreg Rhys a French Style “Shabby Chic” experience.
We were invited to use the lovely grounds with spectacular views..... It’s a wonderful place and we will definitely be returning.

"Just got back from two weeks holiday in this lovely cottage."
Very peaceful and relaxing surroundings we did not want to come home. Well maintained cottage with everything you could wish for we enjoyed the log burner during evening and getting in to the wonderful comfy bed and cosy bedding. We enjoyed having the hot tub which helped us relax after long walkes around beautiful Anglesey. The owners Fiona and Peter are so lovely they made us feel very welcome and Fiona even baby sat the dog one evening so we could go out for a meal, nicer people you could not wish to meet. All in all it has been a wonderful holiday and we feel very relaxed (even the dog sulked when we got home ). We would highly recommend this and we are definitely going to visit again hopefully next year.

"Carreg Rhys is a lovely cottage in a quiet rural location, ideally situated to access all the popular beaches and coastal walks along the south of Anglesey."
The friendly owners made us feel welcome and were keen to ensure that we had all we needed during our stay. The cottage is very comfortable, well appointed and has ample car parking space in the grounds of the house.
We highly recommend this property and look forward to a return visit.

"Carreg Rhys was the perfect location and accommodation for us."
We loved every minute and felt very sad to come home. The cottage with its hot tub was perfect after a long day of walking and sight seeing.
Fiona and Peter were lovely and made us feel so very welcome. We miss them too! I particularly enjoyed the coal/log burner in the evenings as this made us feel very relaxed and cosy. The bed was so comfortable and we both slept well and we enjoyed our lay-ins; waking to the sound of silence! (well, perhaps a few sheep in the neighbouring field.)
When we arrived, Fiona had made the cottage look perfect! We even had rose petals in the bath! There was a basket full of goodies too in the kitchen for us. In our opinion, the cottage was absolutely amazing and we look forward to returning next year.
If you like peace and quiet, then this is the place for you. Where we were situated, every place that we wanted to visit was no more than 30 mins away in the car. The beaches on Anglesey are some of the most beautiful we have seen.
Some times when you go on holiday, you do not expect to find somewhere that exceeds your expectations, but Carreg Rhys and Anglesey certainly did that for us and our little dog, Pippa!
We even got to see the beautiful Puffins and I can certainly recommend a trip to Conwy. We caught the train from Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (copied and pasted) to Conwy and enjoyed the views of the mountains and amazing scenery. All the pubs and restaurants we visited offered great food and lots of it!
Fiona and Peter made our stay that bit more special as they could not do enough for us and were only a call or text away if there was anything that we needed. I hope that all visitors enjoy their stay as much as we did. The cottage and Anglesey are a little gem.

"A hidden gem!"
Carreg rhys cottage is a little bit of paradise in anglesey, Im not sure where to begin it's surrounded in acres of breath taking countryside but is as equally as beautiful inside, so much attention to detail and love has been put into this cottage by the owners whom are the loveliest people I've ever met. You can't get much better than lighting the candles and sitting in front of the roaring log burning stove, then relaxing in the hot tub ! It really is pure bliss, the cottage is so quaint and cozy and is only made better my its homely fetures and quirky personality. The cottage is so clean and has all the amenities you could possibly want with a comfy bed and big roll top bath, Fiona and pete are lovely down to earth people they can't literally do enough for you and you can tell its from the heart they genuinely want to make your holiday perfect, wish I could just move in to carreg rhys and live here its perfect.

Fiona and Peter both make so much effort with the place and us. We arrived to a lovely welcome hamper and rose petals in the bath tub and the Hot Tub ready to go.
There is a few nice pubs in the area to eat in and the kitchen is really well equipped so eating at home wasn't a problem.
We had some good days out as there is plenty to do in the surrounding area.

The attention to detail of all the interior decor and furnishings with its Parisienne "Shabby Chic" style is lovely. Many additional touches like Fluffy Bath robes when you get out of the Hotub and Fur throws to keep the chill off when dining Al Fresco at night, add the 5 star experience.
Fiona & Peter the owners offer a warm and welcoming greeting on arrival to add the personal touch. Nothing is too much trouble for them to help you enjoy your stay. We feel like we've made new friends. So much so we've already booked for next year.

"This was our 6th Sykes rental and 2nd time we’ve been to Carreg Rhys, this time returning for our honeymoon."
The owner Fiona had laid on a beautiful welcome hamper and even decorated the cottage with a tasteful hessian “Just Married” banner, a liberal scattering of red rose petals, fresh flowers and a single rose on the bed.
As ever here, the welcome from Fiona and Peter was warm and friendly and they obviously put a lot of effort into both running and maintaining the cottage.
The hot tub isn’t over chlorinated like some and they do check it regularly.
The welcome from Lola (Tibetan terrier) was as effusive as Fiona and she’s always around and up for a fuss (Lola not Fiona) Her partner in crime (Alfie) is also very friendly and Marley the cat is fairly indifferent at first but does like a fuss.
The cottage was clean, well prepared and with a stack of logs and coal ready for the log burner it was just perfect. Fiona did offer to have it lit ready which just typifies her attitude and willingness to get everything just right.
Privacy is not an issue even though the cottage is attached to the main house and it’s a beautifully quiet location.
There are lots of fantastic beaches around and we’d highly recommend Llanddwyn Island which is about 15 minutes away.
For us, this was the perfect honeymoon and it’s a great “get away from it all” break.
Whilst we are already have the next years holidays booked I can safely say we will be returning here in the future.
Thank you Fiona and Peter for your hospitality xx
