"The cottage is in a lovely position, with a lovely kitchen and bedrooms and is well-equipped."
However when we arrived it was cold, damp and smells musty. This improved a little when putting on the heaters but the damp musty smell did not go away and is most obvious in the older parts of the house. So we were really disappointed.

"I have already been in touch with yourselves about this property."
We did think this property could have been cleaner. The garden at the front could have been tidied up. Also there was a musty..foisty smell which was most unpleasant and we actually came home a day early because of it Although cottage was well equipped we wouldn't stay here again

"We had a lovely stay and the setting of the cottage and gardens is great, even though the weather was pretty rubbish - windy and rainy."
I'm not sure if it was the weather but the cottage did seem to be damp when we arrived with a bit of a musty smell. We did use the electric heaters when we were in, but turned them off when we went out, so I don't know if that was why it felt damp. The toilet in the en-suite creaks when you sit on it and the tap was also loose. Other than those minor details, we did think the cottage was lovely and well equipped.

"There were 4 of using all four bedrooms."
Upstairs bedroom is not suitable for an adult as I struggled to stand upright & frequently banged my head on the doorway! Also, the coffee machine is very complicated & we couldn't stop it leaking from the frother. Apart from that property was lovely. An outside brush would be useful to clean the patio as we kept treading leaves into the house!

"A beautiful property and Jo the owner was so helpful and made our stay perfect."
-
"Lovely little cottage with a nice big garden."
Very private and located in a beautiful area on Anglesey with picturesque beaches and scenery close by.

"The property was perfect for our family."
We loved that it felt like a home from home and had everything you could need for your stay. The wine, bread and essentials was a thoughtful touch too. It is a short walk to the village of Pen-Y-Sarn but secluded enough to feel like you're miles from anywhere. It's in the perfect spot for the lovely local beaches and an ideal base for friends or families to get together. A bonus was the washer/dryer so that we could refresh our beachwear etc. Jo, the owner is lovely and we wouldn't hesitate to stay again, we highly recommend Carreg Winllan to anyone and hope to be back soon. Diolch!

"Lovely house , clean and well equipped and comfortable."
I would certainly recommend a stay there.

"As we have discussed with the owner and with Sykes, we were very unhappy with the standard of cleaning at the property upon arrival."
We also found the house to be musty/damp and we weren't able to stay for our holiday beyond the first night. Our concerns were addressed by both the owner and Sykes and we've been able to agree to that the standard wasn't acceptable and a refund was issued.
We were sorry to learn that the standards of cleanliness at the cottage fell beneath what you considered to be an acceptable standard. In seeking to resolve the issue, we were disappointed that having stayed for one night you were unwilling to take up the offer of alternative accommodation for the following evening while cleaners attended the property to address your concerns. In the circumstances we considered it to be in the interests of both parties for a refund to be issued. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage really comfortable."
Stunning outdoor area.

"We absolutely loved this beautiful, peaceful place, it is very special!"
Loved the house and sitting out in the garden where I saw a red squirrel on three separate occasions!!

"Carreg Winllan is a beautiful cottage, managing to combine period and contemporary styles, particularly in the kitchen/dining area and bathrooms very successfully."
It is very well equipped and comfortable and the underfloor heating in the bathrooms was well appreciated. The garden is lovely, with plenty of seating and dining areas, designed to catch the shifting sun throughout the day. We were lucky with the weather and managed to take in many of Anglesay's beautiful beaches, gardens, historic buildings and places of interest. Owner Jo is so helpful, and managed to sort out a little problem we had very quickly. We will definitely go back to Anglesay and Carreg Winllan, will definitely be our first choice.

"Loved it, loved it, loved it."
Great weekend with my siblings. Nice comfortable beds, beautiful underfloor heating in bathrooms and a cosy living room. Spent a lot of time eating and talking around the big kitchen table, kitchen had everything you needed. Really nice area for walking, we saw the donkeys, highland cows and red squirrels.
