• "Great cottage ."

  Great location..friendly neighbours at farm..Nice enclosed garden for dog ..slight issue with no hot water on arrival but was sorted quickly by electrician once reported ..only the one general waste bin for all waste so eco warriors beware....definitely would return it was a lovely place for a long weekend away.

• "1. The key safe is worn and difficult to open."

  Had to ring emergency number. Managed to open it after 40 minutes of trying just as Sykes returned my call. It needs replacing. 2. The wooden gates fronting the cottage need some maintenance to make them easier to open and close. 3. The listing for the cottage requests that no contact be made with the occupiers of the residential property next to the cottage. I understand that the property changed hands in April 2024 and the new occupiers are friendly and welcoming. The listing needs updating.

• "Absolutely beautiful only criticism was the recycling information very confusing as only one red bin available."

  Gardens beautifully kept and we'll maintained. The cottage was very comfortable and well stocked.

  Glad you enjoyed it, it is a special place to be by the estuary. There is a delay in implementing the new scheme due to shortage of bins nationally. Property Owner

• "A beautiful cottage with a high standard of equipment and furnishings."

  Beautiful views over the estuary and lovely walks over the coastal paths. The highlight was seeing the red squirrels while walking to Moelfre. Our grandchildren loved the beach and playing in the enclosed garden.

• "This was our second stay at Estuary Cottage, and if anything, we loved it even more this time!"

  It is just perfect for us and our little dog. It is beautifully presented and equipped, comfortable and user-friendly. Except for one day, we had all our meals at home, and even invited some guests. Despite not being in our own home, it was easy and comfortable to prepare meals and clean up. Also a shout-out to the agent for the property, who dealt with a small infrastructure problem we had efficiently.

  Loved the peace and quiet. The beach at Traeth Lligwy was our favourite. We found lots of nice places to eat. Pilot Boat just up the road was great. The Tavern On The Bay and The Breeze Hill all served great food. Thank you for our Champagne, welsh cakes and Coffee xxx

• "The location of this lovely, clean, well provided cottage, is absolutely superb."

  Stunning views with beautiful walks straight from the door. The peace and quiet was so restoring and just what is needed for a relaxing holiday.. We really appreciated the very comfortable outside furniture and it was a great start to the holiday sitting in the garden drinking the champagne the owner kindly left for us. We can thoroughly recommend, and really appreciated, staying at Estuary Cottage. Anglesey is a really beautiful place to visit. Thank you to the owner for such a happy and sunny stay.

• "One of the nicest cottages I've stayed in on Anglesey, well appointed with lots of extras that aren't always provided, the only thing needed was kitchen roll, and perhaps some tongs."

  Lovely log burner which was needed on the colder afternoons before the heating kicked in. Cannot better the view, quiet and peaceful. 1 or 2 things need sorting out although recycling was explained in the house literature, the outside boxes weren't there to put items into. As we were packing upto leave, a lawnmower team arrived, dog was still outside, and they left the gates open, pls make other clients aware of this. Fortunately I got her inside before having the chance to run off. If you have a canine companion who is an adapt escapee they will get under the fence.....

  Thank you for taking the time to write some feedback, we are pleased that you enjoyed the property and its unique location. Thank you for your constructive feedback and some helpful suggestions which we will be happy to consider. Regarding the bins, Welsh legislation has recently changed, we are currently moving between one system and another, with waste collection companies working hard to replace waste bin containers at over 3,000 properties. The welcome book is now updated for guest's convenience. Although the garden at Estuary Cottage is enclosed, we can never guarantee that gardens can be completely secure for all dogs at any of our properties. Thank you for your useful comments. Kind regards, The Menai Team Property Owner

• "Estuary cottage is in a wonderful location, amazing views, cottage has lovely decor."

  Had issue with washing machine so rang number in the information book, number had changed so were re-directed to another number. Richard rang back, first thing he said was "I dont deal with this type of issue. No “Hello, how are you”... We thought why did he pick up the message. Richard did not seem to have a very positive or happy manner, perhaps he was fed up, which we all are sometimes. Washing machine issue was resolved. When we hung our coats on the coat rails in entrance hall we did not notice Mr & Mrs Woodlice and their family were going about their business along with a mushroom/toadstool that was growing out of the wall. We made Richard aware to which his response was "I know about it". So we thought why hasn't it been resolved. After finding out about the woodlice we took coats outside and gave them a good shake, Mr & Mrs Woodlice and family went off to new adventures. Richard also commented "As you booked in the 11th hour no deep clean could occur". We had looked at the bookings for Estuary Cottage, it was full before and after our visit so when would a deep clean taken place? Why was a deep clean needed? We booked when we booked, imagine Skyes want as much business as possible, but then how will a deep clean happen. Should we of been allowed to stay when a deep clean was needed? When films are put in DVD Player no sound comes out, we checked all the cables but no joy. We did not ring Richard, we thought better of it. There are three recycling information cards in information book showing what can be recycled. In kitchen there is a sliver bin with two compartments each with a black bin bag, other side of kitchen is another waste bin again with a black bin bag. There is no labeling/colour codes to differentiate what should/could be recycled. Outside main gate is one wheelie bin. We like to recycle so on couple of occasions we took our recycled items to Moelfre recycling hub in their main car park. We read such lovely comments from some previous guests saying how wonderful their welcome pack was. We looked high, we looked low but could not find ours. Has this service finished? As this was our first booking with Sykes Cottages a suggestion was made by your colleague on booking any further holidays discount vouchers maybe available to us, is this correct? We can pass on our comments to the property owners if you wish who we were told are Lligwy Estate. We look forward to receiving your response Thank You

  Thank you for taking some time to write a review following your stay at Estuary Cottage. Guest feedback is taken extremely seriously as a valuable tool to allow us to monitor the quality and guest satisfaction at our properties. As a booking agent, the team here at Menai Holidays are the first point of contact for guests should the need arise. Our phone lines are available 24hrs a day, seven days a week, we also have a web messaging channel. I am pleased you were able to contact the owner and he was able to assist on this occasion. The information packs at the property will now be amended with the correct contact details to report maintenance issues etc. Many of our properties offer a private waste collection, meaning that guests do not have to sort their recycling at source, it is sorted at the depot, so please be reassured that guest waste is recycled. However, this is changing legislation and will soon no longer be a service available to businesses- going forwards all guests will be expected to sort every item of their waste ready for collection. Unfortunately, as advertised, this property only offers a welcome pack for week-long bookings. I am sorry that on this occasion the cleanliness and amenities did not meet your expectations, these issues have been raised with the housekeeping team. I hope we have been able to offer you an acceptable resolution. Thank you, the Menai Team. Property Owner

• "We had really bad weather."

  It would have been good to be able to control the heating.

  on the 20th we received a request to increase heat and on the same day we moved the living area and hall heaters to constant from timed, the temperatures were monitored remotely and were at target 21' - you also had a woodburner to utilise. We have had v limited complaints about the new heating system with many saying the cottage is cosy and warm. We have to look after the environment but appreciate guest comfort is important. Some guests like high heat however we cater for the average setting and we did respond so think it is unfair to be awarding a low score. Property Owner

• "Our holiday was totally marred by two very important points which matter greatly to us."

  Firstly on our first morning we opened the front door to find an organised shoot! This in itself is unacceptable having live weapons and shot raining down on you let alone the noise but to us it has far reaching consequences. NOT ACCEPTABLE as we had to negotiate with them.!! Secondly, your clever photography shows the cottage standing along, this is VERY misleading, only in the small print does it say differently, another. NOT ACCEPTABLE from us, We value our privacy. I look forward to your comments.

  We're very sorry you experienced the small rural shoot during your stay, guests have never raised this before during their stay at Estuary cottage, the cottage has a very high number of repeat guests throughout the year who have never complained about it given it is a small shoot and only occasionally in the field adjacent and in any event guests are contacted about this at the door before the actual event.. We do feel that the property has been advertised accurately, and in fact within the notes on the website the property next door is mentioned " The property is situated within a farmyard and next to an occupied house." And the location plan on the agents web site is quite accurate if you were able to tie this up with satellite plans. We also understand the agents spoke to you when you called on 24th August to clarify if the property was isolated and you were advised at the time it was within a farmyard and next to a house as per the web site description. The map would have been sufficient for you to check whether this part of Anglesey was isolated. This area and most of Anglesey is not isolated at all in comparison to say Parc Eryri (Snowdonia).

  The arrival gifts left for us were very generous and we enjoyed the champagne sat watching the sunset over the beautiful view. The fixtures and fittings, along with the furnishings were all of a high standard and added to the atmosphere of the cottage. The cottage was also equipped with all the facilities we could need i.e crockery, pans etc and it was particularly nice that toilet rolls, washing up liquid etc had been left for us to start us off and most importantly spotlessly clean. We visit the island regularly and always stay in Menai cottages, all of which have been wonderful, but Estuary Cottage is particularly lovely! Thank you for a lovely holiday!

• "This was our first visit to Anglesey."

  Estuary Cottage was amazing and far exceeded our expectations. Idyllic setting, beautifully appointed/well equipped for our needs. Thoroughly enjoyed exploring the local bays and coves. Enjoyed the coastal path walks direct from the cottage. Thanks to previous reviews we sought out the smoke house in Dulas - Y CWT MWG for some amazing cheeses and also the crab shop in Benllech (opposite Tesco Express) for fresh dressed crab. We travelled down to Newborough (40 min drive) for a fabulous beach day and also crossed the original Menai Bridge into Bangor enroute to the Snowdon Mountain Rail for a journey to the peak. We have barely scratched the surface. We will definitely be returning to Estuary Cottage to further explore the Island.

• "Upon arrival we found there was no hot water!"

  This had not been tested by the housekeeper! A text to the housekeeper did result in a plumber visiting the property at 8.30am the next morning and the issue was resolved. There were no cleaning products left in the property (anti-bac spray etc), and only two dishwater tablets (with no pre-warning that these are not provided). Two texts to both housekeeper contacts went unanswered! The outside lighting by the drive gate, outside patio furniture and wooden bench did not work! Seating inside the cottage needs attention as it is uncomfortable to sit on and both armchairs are badly stained. Hot tap hand washbasin in both bathroom and toilet have been plumbed in the wrong way and now spin round when turned on! Also both wooden shelves in bathroom and downstairs toilet are very badly worn and stained, looking unsightly. Very unhygienic, a simple sand and varnish is all that is needed. A proper towel ring is needed in the bathrooms as the hand towel kept falling off the coat hook that was there. Small side plates are also needed in the kitchen. No key provided for the front door, meaning that coats and boots etc had to be removed for safety reasons when out. The door is also in need of a sand and varnish! A nice cottage in a beautiful location, but in need of some TLC!

  Im sorry you had issues with the domestic water temp, it was a fault finding issue which we have since resolved. The sofa was replaced last year so we do attend to furnishings however we acknowledge the arms to both chairs are poor and we have covers being made or they will be replaced. Property Owner

  I would highly recommend. Downsides for some would be the stairs up to the living space/ the porch could not be locked as the door is broken and the road to the cottage is only fit for vehicles which have good clearance.

  We are glad you had an enjoyable stay, apologies but the contractor due to fill in some potholes has been delayed otherwise we have had no issues with complaints form guests concerning your average car. The outer door to the porch is not lockable as we have retained the key, it is purely used as a boot room and for storage of logs & coats etc. Property Owner

  Having visited Anglesey many times since my university days at Bangor in the 1970s, I never knew there was this beautiful area on the Dulas Estuary until now, and I will be returning. The walk to the Traeth Yr Ora is joyful, thank you for the directions. My all time favorite beach is Newborough/Llanddwyn, which remains as un-spoilt and awe-inspiring as when I first visited in 1976. My favorite part is the beach to the right of the path to the Island where a massive wonderful beach awaits. The small smokery at Dulas is worth a visit (Y Cwt Mwg) I bought smoked chicken, smoked goats cheese and goats sausages. The crab shop in Benllech - self dressed crab, cooked lobsters etc. Worth an early visit before they sell out.

  Only downside to our stay was the early checkout because we didn't want to leave! Also wanted to mention that on our way out we noticed a small leak in the porch, near to the inner door. Probably noticable due to the heavy rain but thought you'd want to know. Thanks

• "An excellent quality property furnished to a high standard in a peaceful rural setting."

  Superb position with great views and walks on the doorstep. Excellent facilities within with only a few minor issues such as a couple of electrical appliances (radiator in main bathroom, table lamp in bedroom) not working. We appreciate you are still working with Covid-19 restrictions, but think the entrance and exit times could be different - arriving at 5pm and leaving at 9am only gave us 2 days and 3 nights. No problem, but would have been better at 4pm/10am. We would definitely return again and would most certainly recommend to friends etc.

  We are delighted you enjoyed your stay, sadly we were not told about the towel radiator until I found the issue on the day of your arrival after the previous guests had left. This has since been addressed. We are pleased to confirm a 4.30pm check in & 10.00 departure with immediate effect. Property Owner

• "Beautiful cottage in a quiet and peaceful location with stunning views."

  The cottage was as described and photographed with the exception of the lounge furniture. It is a small living dining area but perfectly adequate if it had the right size furniture, perhaps better for 2 than 4 people. We were surprised to see that the small sofa had been replaced with a large, not new- pale blue, grubby looking, sofa. With the 2 large chairs (also grubby - arms were marked and dirty) there was very little room to move about. After a long period of lockdown we were surprised that the furniture had not been subjected to a deep clean - it was as if someone was clearing out old stuff and just put it in there.... The kitchen facilities were good and although we didn't feel the need for a freezer I can appreciate that if it was more than 2 people for a few days it could be a problem. As someone else has mentioned, there could be for room for a fridge freezer if there were less storage units. That said it was a great location with beautiful walks and a great time was had enjoying watching the red squirrels that definitely loved hazelnuts. The lambs were also a joy to watch. Will consider staying again.

• "Estuary Cottage was glorious, far away from the madding crowd which was spot on for the 'crazy times' we are living through right now."

  We pretty much knew where the pitfalls would be from reading comments left by previous visitors and I can both agree and understand the comments left: (a) the lack of a freezer - I understand because it fits in with the extremely well laid out and equipped kitchen (neff no less so very reliable) but agree because it was lacking in space for even just the 2 of us meaning we made more shopping trips than we would have liked although we found Tesco, Waitrose and Hootons farm shop to be COVID 19 compliant. (b) satellite signal - the weather was pretty atrocious and the signal on 'Free-sat TV' went down on day 3 which meant we had to read, amuse ourselves and enjoy the surroundings - nothing wrong with that but just be prepared for it. We have no doubt we will be back in time ( God Willing) if only to check out the red squirrels (PS they adore hazelnuts (£3 a bag Tesco) and it's great fun watching them hiding them for the winter)! STAY SAFE EVERYONE

  Our little dog NELL. Loved the beach at Lligwy just right for chasing her ball , The ever changing views from our cottage window was magical! And seeing the red squirrel. WOW. We would like to draw your attention to the front porch door that you can not close, and also the water ingress into the porch, making the hanging of coats a complete waste of time, in other words they get VERY WET . Also the freezing compartment in the fridge,is inadequate for four people, how don't want to shop every day . But after saying that. I wish I was back at ESTUARY cottage now instead of doing the washing. Yours sincerely Marjorie and Philip Green

  Location is very secluded which suited us. Cottage was clean, comfortable, well equipped and very well heated. Internet was poor but that is understandable due to location, but all our phones had 4G reception. Would definitely recommend this cottage and would love to return. Feedback for improvement - landowners kindly let cottage guests walk across private land to the public coastal path. During the weekends there was a pheasant shoot on the private land and we ended up walking back through the shoot which had to be stopped for us to pass. If there had be details of the time of the shoot in the cottage information we would have avoided the land at that time.

• "Lovely cottage at the end of a lane that cuts across the coastal path with views out across a field and Dulas Estuary."

  From the cottage you can walk to the other side of the Estuary or towards LLligwy beach. It is a bit isolated (having one nearby neighbour and a farm) but at the end of the private road is the Pilot Inn pub which we found to be friendly. As it is so isolated I would have preferred less kitchen cupboards and a decent sized fridge freezer as the one in the cottage is a small fridge with an ice box and for us we ate in a lot due to the cottage's location and the local area so had to make a few trips to Benllech out for re stocking milk, bread and other essentials. The cottage itself is warm and comfortable with great showers upstairs and downstairs, open plan living and kitchen space with lovely views. Only niggle with cleanliness was their was tissues and string under the coach suggesting it hadn't had a deep clean in a while. The addition of the porch was a great idea, the inner door is still a bit tricky and we tended to use the patio as the main way in and out. If some coat hooks were added to the porch area it would be great for hanging wet coats as well as storing the wellies and walking boots. Longish walk to the beach but beautiful spot to get away from it all. I would recommend.

  One star lost as the front door is essentially serviceable and this has been a comment left year on year to the owners.

  Owner Response: “Thank you for this and we have taken on your point. It is an issue which has escalated due to adverse weather effects on the door joints. In addition to replacing the door an entrance porch is being built in November to protect the main entrance from the weather. This will also provide valuable space for muddy boots and coats etc… thus freeing up the main hall of any clutter to improve accommodation for guests.” Property Owner

  Good quality outdoor furniture meant we were able to use the outdoor space too. The owners had gone to some length to equip the cottage properly & everything functioned as it should. My only grips would be; firstly, crockery was in short supply(we only had 4 bowls for example) & secondly, the front door was a little tricky to lock. Other than that we loved it & would recommend to others. In fact we already have!
