  • "Lovely clean, comfortable place with everything provided for the two of us to enjoy a relaxing break, including a bottle of wine and milk in the fridge on arrival!"

    Thank you, Tina. The large private garden was an added bonus enabling us to sit outside with a glass of wine each evening making the most of the wonderful weather we had. It was reassuring to know that the owner was only next door should we have experienced any issue (which we didn't! ) We would definitely recommend Gable Retreat and hope to revisit this lovely place

    Thank you so much for your feedback, I am pleased that you had a nice time and enjoyed the garden and wine. Warm wishes Tina Property Owner

    Tina, our host, was most extremely helpful and made us most welcome.

  • "Lovely self-catering accommodation and probably the cleanest we've ever stayed in."

    The kitchen is tiny, but very well equipped. (I had no intention of doing much cooking...) The bedroom is large and comfortable; the shower room is lovely. Private garden area. Owners are friendly and helpful. Nothing bad to say about it, altho' if there are three people staying, rather than two, you might struggle a bit for space in the living room/dining area.

  • "We were comfortable and made to feel welcome."

    Access was very easy. Tina had provided everything we could need. She even very kindly left a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge (which we left as we rarely drink, but it was a very kind gesture nonetheless which we appreciated). We enjoyed being able to sit in the sun in the pretty garden between our sightseeing trips. Everything was clean and up to date, and, location wise, it was a quick walk to the beach and the coastal path. Thank you Tina.

  • "This was a very last minute booking after Air BnB cancelled on us with 3 days notice but what we got at The Gables was fantastic!"

    The owner was friendly and kind and even popped to the shops for us. It had lots of facilities that made self catering easy including an air fryer and was in walking distance to the sea front. We slept well every night and the apartment was clean and tidy. We liked it so much that we've already booked to go back! We would 100% recommend this to others.

    We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Looking forward to seeing you in 2 weeks. Warm wishes Tina Property Owner

    There is a new restaurant opening on the promenade, there is a Chinese restaurant and takeaway nearby, a spar and general shops etc. By car about one mile away is a Tesco, Morrisons, and an Aldi and Macdonalds, Chinese/chip shop in a different direction. The flat is at the rear of the premises with its own large private garden and seating. The kitchen diner is compact but has everything needed including fridge, cooker, microwave, washing machine and television. There is also a three seater and a one seater settee. All crockery, cooking utensils and cutlery etc is provided,and there is also an iron, small ironing board and hairdryer provided. The bedroom is quite large with a double and a single bed. The bathroom has a shower cubicle. The owners are very friendly and will help with any questions or problems you might have. I would recommend this place to all. There is a lot to be seen on this beautiful Island.

    Kitchen was fully equipped and everything was clean & tidy. Lovely bathroom and a wonderful private garden with furniture. Short walk to the beach across the path through the field or about 10 mins walk on the road, Beach was lovely and son really enjoyed paddle boarding which can be hired from local shop for £15 ph, Visit to Benllech beach is a must, the water was nice and shallow and the beach spotless, Holyheads country park was a great find with lovely cliff walks followed by lunch in their cafe - the homemade cakes were delicious. South Stack lighthouse was worth a visit although extremely windy, Overall, a really relaxing enjoyable holiday only downside was the lack of restaurants in Treaddhur - didn't manage to get a booking all week but at least they had a chinese take out.Recommendation book restaurant before you go and get a windbreaker for the beach.

  • "This was our first experience of a self catering holiday."

    We were a bit wary about the accommodation, being a ground floor apartment within a family home but our fears were unfounded. The accommodation was extremely comfortable, immaculately clean, with a well equipped kitchen, plenty of storage for clothing, Not an essential but we had the benefit of Sky tv plus an excellent wi-fi connection. It was ideal for the two of us. We were not disturbed by our hosts, Tina and Terry, who were not at all intrusive. They were on hand should we needed any help and found them easy to talk too, very warm and friendly. Not only was the property well appointed but there was an excellent and beautiful large private garden, which was not overlooked, enabling us to have a couple of barbecue's during our stay. As well as the barbecue, there was a table with parasol, two chairs plus two garden chairs. There are three short walks down to the beach, one down the main road leading to the Post Office, local shops and an excellent Chinese Restaurant, the second by walking down a side road towards the playing fields (our preferred option) or by taking a public footpath which took you down the side of the cliff (great views of the bay) and through a field towards the Treaddur Bay Hotel. We were treated with a bottle of bubbly on our arrival which was really appreciated after our long journey. Excellent apartment and excellent hosts. Without hesitation we recommend the Gables Retreat If returning to the area, we would, without any hesitation return. Tina and Terry have set a high bench mark for self catering apartments and we were truly spoiled. Let's hope our second self catering holiday can meet the Gables Retreat extremely high standards

Trearddur Bay is situated on the western shore of Holy Island. It’s truly beautiful - a great sweep of low grassy coastline indented with rocky coves and fine sandy beaches (European Blue Flag). Watersports, bathing, sailing and windsurfing are the main activities in the summer months and golfers will enjoy the excellent Holyhead 18 hole links golf course. It’s a great place for nature lovers with renowned birdwatching at the South Stack Lighthouse RSPB Reserve and lots of rock pools and cliff top walks to explore. There are shops, pubs and restaurants in Trearddur Bay itself and nearby Holyhead offers a wider range of amenities, including a very good leisure centre, an interesting harbour front, a marina, the world’s second longest breakwater and exciting day trips to Dublin on the ferry. The Maritime Museum in Holyhead has an excellent cafe and the beautiful Holyhead Breakwater Country Park has walks for you to enjoy. Further afield there is the stunning Newborough with its excellent woodland and beach and Beaumaris with its town and castle. A great location with plenty to see and do!
