"Had a lovely stay at The Smithy."
Owners very friendly and helpful, and we loved the resident ducks! Despite a rather wet week, we managed to get out and about exploring the island. Wonderful wildlife including Red Squirrels and a wide variety of birds, making it a peaceful and enjoyable break that we would highly recommend.

"What an amazing stay!"
The cottage is gorgeous, it has everything you could need, beds are super comfy, gardens and views are really beautiful and peaceful. The owners, Helen and Rick were so friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make our stay the best. My daughter is autistic and loved the peaceful location. Helen recommended a quiet beach for her which was fab.
Absolutely would recommend staying here to families, we will be returning soon.

"Lovely comfortable little cottage, very clean, with everything you need, excellent quality in everything."
Beautiful garden. Really pleased they had an electric car charger, saved worry about finding places to charge when we were out and about. We loved seeing red squirrels at Nant-y-pandy, the cliffs and seabirds at South Stack, and the huge beach & woods at Newborough. Hope to come back soon!

Rick and Helen are warm and friendly hosts and nothing seemed too much trouble for them, from starting up a freezer for us to showing us around their gardens, bringing us deckchairs, and even some home grown rhubarb! We loved the herbs growing outside each cottage and the summer house.

"Fantastic place to stay, nice and ‘out of the way’ but not far to drive to some lovely locations."
The cottage is beautiful, only draw backs being that by it’s nature it is quite compact so my tall (6ft4) other half found it awkward to stand and use toilet (sloping roof made it tricky to get close enough). The downstairs soft seating is 2 seater sofa that can squeeze a 3rd, single soft chair and beanbag, no issue for us as the kids were more than happy to settle on the bean bag.
Perhaps worth considering a small shoe rack just inside the front door.
We would not hesitate to come back! The hosts, grounds and cottage are wonderful!
Thank you

Delighted to finally see a red squirrel along with all the other wildlife, including a woodpecker.
Would definitely go back if we visit Anglesey again.

"I booked the "Smithy" for a suprise birthday for my other half."
Beautiful accommodation slightly bigger than expected and very comfortable. The hosts Helen and Rick are really lovely and made sure that we had everything we needed and advised of places that we were'nt aware of and are very knowledgable of the area. The upkeep of the grounds and gardens you can see the hard work they put in and guests are rewarded with amazing wildlife by the many bird feeders. We had rabbits running pass the cottage and 3 waddling ducks came to greet us each morning.
Would be brilliant for families & perfectly central location to see all parts of Anglesey. I will definately recommend them and they have a facebook page Deri Fawr Holiday Cottages and Caravans. A very peaceful and relaxing holiday.
