Hen Gilfach Stable

• "The Stable was as described, cosy and warm."

  We were however disappointed with all external facilities. There were no sun loungers, only one garden chair, a second one was in pieces. We asked the owner for a second garden chair and we were provided with a basic folding wooden stand chair. Neither of the chairs were comfortable and so rendered the garden area unsuitable for sitting out. The access to the garden area is down stone steps without a handrail and the whole garden area was overgrown and neglected.

  We will be going back so do not miss the chance to escape here.

• "We had a lovely stay, the Stable was perfect for our getaway."

  If there was one thing I would change, it would be the TV, it was far too high and we got neck ache watching the football. As we get older it’s quite painful on the neck watching a high TV. Tracey was very responsive when the smoke alarm battery needed changing which was much appreciated Thank you for a lovely stay!

  The cottage had everything you could need including little touch like cling film and foil, the things you don't think about when you go away! The hot tub was lovely too. I will visit again no doubt

• "Had such a lovely relaxed stay at the stable."

  Perfect little place. Super clean and decorated modern. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was amazing. Only issue for us was the hot tub lights....how do they switch on.....it was too dark in the evening to use. Also the location....quite off grid. The roads are not for the faint hearted. I wouldn't suggest any city cars down these tracks. We had some amazing food from local restraunts. Highly recommended booking a space at the lobster pot down in church bay. Thanks for having us stay.

  Lovely little bolt hole, for a short get away, due to location/age there were quiet a few spiders etc, but could only be expected, also when we arrived, there appeared to be a musty smell, but maybe that depends on last time was occupied, apart from those little things, it was very nice,

• "Lovely cottage a pity we were telephoned on our holiday by the owner to be told that there would be no electricity the following day and suggested we go out before 9 am."

  This was disappointing as we were unable to use the facilities and relax on our holiday and particularly disappointing was to be rung and told at such short notice. This forced us to get up early unable to use the hot tub and we were not advised at what time the electricity was to come back on forcing us to stay out all day. This was very disappointing and unsatisfactory. There was also an unpleasant damp smell in the cottage particularly in the bathroom.

  I am glad you found the stable lovely, I am sorry about the inconvenience of the electric situation Scottish power had to work on a line at the top of the lane on short notice. Regards Tracy Property Owner

• "Lovely location and the Stable has been converted to a good standard."

  Facilities are good and the small garden area with the hot tub is lovely in the afternoon, especially when sunny. Walks to the coast and local bays are well worth it, walking on the roads is ok as generally quiet. When booking did not realise the closeness of the other larger properties and the fact that the Stable is on the main entry track with the garden/hot tub area across from this. This was not a issue but would have been nice to know prior to coming. Kitchen utensils and crockery needs small changes, e.g. breakfast/standard glasses. Another suggestion is to make the directions to the property more simple, got lost first time.

  The hot tub was amazing and we were even provided with bath robes to put on to walk out to it which is just across the path and it is situated in it's own private garden that is not overlooked. We had everything we needed. Lovely modern kitchen and bathroom. It is very remote - but that was the attraction to be able to escape away for the weekend! Brilliant - I would definitely recommend it. :-)

• "Very bumpy dirt track down to properties but sea views were amazing."

  Property was very tastefully decorated with everything you need.Would stop for supplies on route as there is nowhere close by we could find to pick up milk, butter ect. Robes are available for hot tub but one was very badly stained so didn’t use.Hot tub was across the lane from stable and down some very overgrown steps ,lovely big size but had all bits and sand on seats and floor which was a concern as to if it had been cleaned before our arrival. Lights not working around hot tub area which was a shame as it would have made the pretty little garden area more useable at night. Neither of us had phone signal with Vodafone or Tesco so lucky there was Wi-Fi. Stripped bed on departure and was horrified to find the really comfy bed we had been sleeping on had a very badly stained mattress protector which should be replaced immediately. Stable was beautiful and we enjoyed our stay there but It needs more attention to details to make it perfect.

  Thankyou for your feedback it helps us to get our place as perfect as we can for our guests, there is a small rust stain on the back of the robe due to hanging it up in the garden, I couldn’t find a stain on the mattress protector, I am glad you enjoyed the stable and I will endeavour to make it perfect, kind regards Tracy Property Owner

• "The Stable was lovely, very clean and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

  The views where beautiful and the hot tub was a real bonus. The coastal walks in the area where stunning, it is a beautiful place to visit with lots of dramatic coastline and pretty coves. In the summer it would be a swimmers paradise! 2 minor concerns, the bed needs a new mattress and the bedroom only has 2 usable plugs, so take an extension lead. Apart from that we had a wonderful stay.

  Not a bad word to say as we couldn’t fault it. The host was very accommodating, there was even a card and some chocolates on arrival. Hot tub was lovely, and the bed was very comfortable.

  The accommodation was immaculately presented and clean. The summer house was high enough to enjoy the sea view and catch the last bit of sun before it set over horizon without being overlooked by the neighbouring apartment. And a was a nice place to relax with a glass or two of wine once the sun had gone down. The second night of the stay the weather changed after sunset (wind and rain), however the accommodation was a cosy place to snuggle up for the evening. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Anglesey, I would highly recommend this cute, isolated and comfortable little haven as a getaway.

  Well equipped, with a bigger than expected bathroom with a shower that lets you choose the settings. I hate the over head showers only!! So that’s a big tick from me. The owner obviously takes a lot of pride in it. It is set in a beautiful part of North Wales. The garden has lots of old quirky ornaments. We had amazing nights sleep as it’s pitch black and silent at night, away from traffic and street lights. The hot tub is a bonus. We are definitely returning as soon as we can get a booking, it’s fully booked up and although I want to leave a good review I really don’t want it becoming too popular or I’ll never be able to return!!! Thank you Tracey. It’s perfect

  The stable is spotlessly clean and well maintained. There is a very comfortable king size bed and a wonderful power shower and outside is the hot-tub, ideal for skinny dipping under the stars. The place is a little difficult to find and a Sat-Nav is a must. The only down side is that there is no phone signal, (or is that a positive point), but the Wi-Fi is excellent. The nearest shops and pubs are around 2 - 3 miles away and the Lobster Pot seafood restaurant is highly recommended. We will certainly be returning.

  The place was very clean and the décor had a lovely shabby chic feel to it (which I love).

A note was left for us when we arrived to say the water had been changed and cleaned thoroughly and that it would be ready for use at 9pm. We also arrived to a welcome gift (a card, chocolates and bottle of wine) which was a lovely touch and we felt truly spoiled. We didn't want to leave! Will definitely be returning, and for longer next time. It was truly what we needed in these trying times!

  The little secret garden and hot tub made for a very relaxing break. The accommodation was spotless clean when we arrived and well equipped with a nice little welcome card to greet us. Kitchen had everything you needed but just missed being able to wash towels to keep them fresh, as there was no washing machine. The directions to the cottage were spot on and it was so easy to find. Lovely places to visit included Plas Newydd and Penryn Castle, and finding the little bays located along the coast line was particularly enjoyable. We walked along the coastal path towards Wilfa Power Station, which was quiet and very scenic. In the times of the "pandemic" this was an ideal and safe location to stay. We would highly recommend this as a couples break.

  The cottage was just like it looked in the photos, clean, tidy and even had a few lovely touches such as the owner leaving us a card and a box of chocolates to help us enjoy our stay. The views were spectacular and I spent most mornings sat outside with a coffee watching the ship's go by. We also enjoyed the hot tub most evenings with a bottle of wine and the most beautiful view of the stars at night time. If I could suggest any improvement I would just say that it would be nice if the place had a microwave, but that isn't a major problem. I'd definitely stay again.

  The owner left a bottle of Prosecco, box of chocolates and a card for us which was a lovely touch and she was very helpful when we needed some information. The hot tub was a lovely extra and was in a cute little area opposite the stable - I do think there should be outdoor lighting around the hot tub, because once it got dark you couldn't really stay in the hot tub due to the area around being so dark. Other than that, I would definitely recommend visiting this accommodation and I would highly recommend visiting the Lobster Pot, a nearby restaurant.

• "Excellent location,close to the sea & to explore Anglesey."

  Stable was very clean,with everything you needed. Downside,to start with, was the road down to the Stable. In very poor condition,full of potholes. Dread to think what damage has been caused to suspension of my car. Secondly, the Stable is very close to owners house,with scaffolding up. Not the best of views. Also close to 2 other holiday accommodations. One with hot tub, so quite noisy. I would never had booked it if i’d known. The outdoor ‘private’ area is close to next doors accommodation,& large seat was full of water. Then 2 men turned up with chainsaws to build some play area. It certainly wasn’t quiet or picturesque. Not what I expected at all.

  Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback following your recent stay at Hen Gilfach Stables.  The very harsh winter weather has had a very bad effect on many of our rural tracks and is a priority now as the weather is slowly improving for effective repairs to take place.  I understand the house with scaffolding is being re-rendered, so not noisy work but appreciate not the prettiest thing. 
  \nI can only apologise that you were disturbed by the hot tub being used in the cottage down the lane.  It is not a complaint that we have received before, but we will take a look at the website and see if there is anything we can do to make the other accommodation more obvious.
