  • "We really enjoyed our stay at Cemaes bay and Artro during October half term."

    We chose this house as it looked very comfortable and inviting, as the plan was if it is raining we can watch movies and chill. Luckyly weather was good too and we managed to explore North wales and surrounding areas. Snowdonia is absolutely stunning! We also enjoyed cosy nights at the Artro, watching movies from big screens , gas fire on, and reclining chairs were hit by all of us. Our whippet enjoyed playing in big garden, automatic light was nice to have when it was dark. Our hosts Linda and Larry were always happy to help if we had any questions! Cemaes bay was chilled quiet place, nice beach cafe , which made lovely pizzas and garlic bread during weekends. Also near by is self service milkshake vending machine which was fun!

    Hi Mia. Thank you for your glowing review We do appreciate your feedback as we try really hard to make your holiday as good as possible. Glad you had good weather so you were able to explore. We love Cemaes and all the surrounding areas. We hope you might book Artro again in the future. Linda & Larry. Property Owner

  • "Fantastic stay at Artro."

    Ideally located in the lovely Cemaes Bay. The house itself is beautifully laid out and one of the best stocked kitchens I've seen. The garden is big and our Border collie enjoyed running round. Lovely view of the sea from the patio too. The beds are nice and comfortable and we loved the reclining sofa and chair. Great to enjoy watching a film whilst having a nice glass of wine in the evening with you feet up. If I could make any suggestions it would be to add a few TV's to the bedrooms. This is just a personal preference for our family as we enjoy watching TV in bed. I know that's not to everyone's taste though and it's not a criticism. You cannot fault the house and the owners our lovely and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We shall definitely be back to stay soon.

    Hi Lynn. Thank you so much for all your kind words regarding your recent stay at Artro. We like to think we’ve provided all we can to make it as warm, comfortable and clean as possible. PS . We’ve got as far as the plugs and tv aeriel sockets high up on each bedroom wall. We just need the tvs now. Maybe on your next visit they’ll be there. Our kind regards to you.

  • "The best holiday home we have stayed in."

    The house is so lovely and spacious and very clean. Extremely well equipped kitchen and a really big fridge and separate big freezer. The garden was great and also big, perfect for our dog. The owners were really helpful when we needed to contact them. A perfect place to stay and about a 3 minute walk from the beach and town.

    Hi Caroline We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Artro. Thank you so much for scoring us 100%. We try to keep it at the standard we would expect ourselves when visiting a holiday home, such as clean, modern and well equipped. (With comfortable beds). We look forward to you visiting again Regards Linda & Larry. Property Owner

  • "Lovely house and the perfect location for us to explore the island, paddle board and watch the sunset."

    Well equipped interior but not as clean as expected on arrival. Plates and pots dirty and the windows dirty both in and out. Otherwise lovely place to stay

    Hi Rachel. Glad you enjoyed your stay at Artro, and the location suited you, being so close to the beach. As we live over 100 miles away, we rely totally on the cleaning company we employ to provide a top class service. They usually do, I have to say. I’ve no idea why they let us down with their standard on this occasion. Regards. Linda. Property Owner

    The location 5mins walk to beach was great and much appreciated by Amber the greyhound. The side rear garden wall is less than 1 metre high. Not a problem for us but know your dog

  • "Artro is a fabulous house."

    It's warm, comfortable and spacious. The location is superb. The garden is safe and enclosed. Just a few minutes to the large beach, which is a seasonal dog friendly beach, and a few more minutes to a smaller year round dog friendly beach. Highly recommend the Stag pub, so friendly, the Bell cafe and the village shop. And great places to visit. Loved this house so much, we have already rebooked. And the owner Linda was a great communicator. Many thanks.

    ..clean, tidy, warm & with it being Dec it was also beautifuly decorated for Christmas. The large property is ideally located as its just a 3 min walk to the lovely local beach, local shops, locol pub, cafes & restaurants. Outside theres a Large fully enclosed rear grassed garden (the new gate is such a great safety addition & appreciated by ourselves with having a little dog) & a big front drive way for multiple cars.The kitchen is really well equipped and theres a lovely large dinning table. The furnishings are great too-Comfortable bed and 2 good size comfy sofas (1 is a reclining sofa too). Downstairs theres also a useful toilet and a nice smaller snug room or children's play room. Upstairs theres a good size bathroom with shower cubicle. Also 3 really big bedrooms (1 is so big that theres room for 2 king sizes beds in it) with plenty of storage for hanging clothes and drawers too. Great communication from the friendly owners. We fully recommend having a holiday in this property and would happily book here again. Thank you.

  • "Spacious property located just a 3 mins walk from the lovely local beach, pubs and shops."

    Has a large driveway and big rear garden. Its a lovely garden but as others have commented your dogs must be supervised at all times as one wall between the neighbouring garden is quite low and there is a small ungated side opening which leads to the front drive, this is blocked by bins but we had a couple of very windy days that blew bins about so it's not 100% safe. The kitchen is well equipped and has plenty of pots/pans,crockery and cutlery along with a double oven, dishwasher and big freezer, and big fridge. Lots of seating in the living area and around the large dining table. Upstairs there's a shower room and 3 big bedrooms. Bed was comfortable with a good mattress which is a bonus in self catering homes as sometimes they are so awful. This property has everything you'd need for a week self catering and ideally located within short driving distances to so many other lovely beaches and other areas of interest. We Will be back at Artro in December so hopefully we'll have the same good experience again

    Hi Claire. Thank you for all your kind comments about Artro. We try to make it as comfortable as your own home would be. Hope you enjoy your second visit to Artro. You will notice too, that we did take action regarding your comments that the rear garden wasn’t totally enclosed. Both sides are now fenced in with a gate for access. Regards to you both.

  • "We enjoyed our stay very much."

    A couple of things would have made it flawless though. Something to wash the laminate floor with as you accept dogs and the garden was quite boggy, also water to the outside tap to wash the dogs off after beach walk. Would have liked a more secure garden as we had to use the bins and garden furniture to block off the exit at the back of the house. That said the property was lovely. Would definitely rebook.

    Hi Tracy. Glad you enjoyed your stay at Artro and thanks for scoring us a 5* with 100% on all four choices. We do try to make your stay as comfortable as possible. This is only our first year at holiday let and we always appreciate helpful feedback. We’ve now provided floor cleaning items for the wooden floor and our back garden is totally fenced off now. We just need to do the outside tap. Property Owner

    The only thing which we would change would be that the rear garden was made secure for our 2 small dogs.

    Our little family had a brilliant time (despite mixed weather) the thoughtfulness of having things like bed rails for toddlers and stair gates were excellent! Bathrooms were the only thing that felt a little dated but everything worked well and was well maintained. Owners were great with contact though we had no issues that needed resolving.

    Hi Louise. So glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed your recent holiday in Anglesey. We have tried our best to refurbish Artro to a high enough standard to be enjoyed by all our guests.
