"We really enjoyed our stay at Delfryd, The house was very clean with everything we needed."
It was better and cleaner than we expected. The area was nice and quiet and in the perfect spot not too far from Bangor or Caernarfon. Nice new comfy sofa and looking out down the Menia was great. We would definitely stay here again.

"The property was as the listing and easy to visit all the places we wanted to go ."
The view from the lounge and main bedroom was great overlooking the Menai Straight and the marina entrance with all the different yachts and boats coming and going.

"Lovely house, perfect setting with panoramic views over the sea."
Convenient location to all attractions, the mountains, Anglesey, Caenarfon etc. Would highly recommend it. Thanks
Thank you so much for the positive feedback, it is such a central point to explore North Wales, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Delfryd. Property Owner

"The accommodation was perfect."
It was exactly as advertised. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Parking was easy with lots of available spaces outside the property. There are steps from the parking area to the house but they were not a problem for us. The view across the Menai Strait was superb and the location peaceful and a good base for exploring North Wales. The kitchen was very well equipped for self catering. The provisions provided were a lovely touch. We had an ideal week at Delfryd.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, there is a ramp further along by the gap between the houses and the sea if the steps are an issue. We are glad you enjoyed your holiday at Delfryd. Property Owner

"Thin walls and very noisy neighbour's."
Central heating has a mind of it's own. But a very nice place with beautiful views and positioned great for access to Bangor etc .
Sorry you had an issue with the central heating it is normally very reliable. Just turning the thermostat up in the hall turns it on and the house heats up very quickly. However I have checked the boiler and it appears that the pressure was low and this was easily rectified. Normally any issues like this we encourage guests to contact us so we can deal with the problem straight away and it does not spoil your holiday. As the house is in a lovely position the properties either side are also holiday lets, we have not had issues of noise before but it is a shame the neighbouring guests were not considerate. We are pleased you enjoyed the house and it view, it is a good central position for exploring North Wales Property Owner

"This holiday was gifted us by our Daughter Caroline Delaney and our Son in Law Wayne."
We stayed at Delfryd last year and fell in love with everything about it. We were so pleased to return this year and it did not disappoint, it felt like coming home. The house itself is wonderful, very spacious, comfortable, warm, clean, well equipped. The owners left us some lovely treats, which we appreciated. It is extremely well situated for access to local amenities and trips out. The view from the balcony is amazing along the Menai Straits, it is ever changing TV not needed. A lovely short walk takes you to Swellies, a little cafe bar on the Marina a relaxed friendly place. Just further along is the Gardffon Inn, a pub overlooking the water, you are made very welcome here with a roaring fire and delicious home cooked food. All in all we really did not want to leave and will definitely return. Thank you to the owners for sharing this delightful property with us, also thank you to the housekeeping for a pleasant and comfortable stay. Elaine and Steve Delaney
We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay, such a lovely gift from your Daughter and Son in Law. We do feel like it is a home from home when we visit. The Swellies also do a nice breakfast, a real treat from time to time. Thank you for your time in posting such positive feedback, we do appreciate it and we do hope you have a lovely Christmas and new Year. Property Owner

"Property is in a amazing location from which to explore Snowdonia, Anglesey and the Lleyn peninsula."
The view from the lounge is outstanding and the owners have thought of everything provisions wise. The smart TV with Netflix is a great bonus.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We do agree Delfryd is a good location to visit many beautiful areas of North Wales and so relaxing to come back to. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

"Great property for position, views, comfort, cleanliness."
More than adequate equipment, utensils, heating and space. Balcony superb.... Weather dreadful due to Storm Agnes but wonderful views (due to the large window wall) up the Menai Straits of the storm and watching the boats struggling at their moorings!
Thank you for your positive feedback. Sorry the weather was dreadful. The view can be lovely in the sun, but it can be just as atmospheric watching a storm in the Strait. We are pleased that Delfryd met your needs for your holday. Property Owner

"Fabulous view but very little comfort as the settees are old and uncomfortable basic chairs on balcony damp smell in bedroom downstairs even when window was open, tiny bathroom with no natural light , difficult over bath shower and no hand rail."
extremely disappointed
We are sorry that our lovely holiday home was not to your expectations. The owner of the cleaning company cleaned the property after you left and has informed us that he did not detect a damp smell. We have also been to the house in the last week and also couldn’t find any evidence of a damp smell either. The house is a very clean and has never shown signs of damp. Usually, visitors contact us directly during their stay if there are any problems so that they can be rectified as soon as possible. The sofas are not new but we find them very comfortable. While this is a matter of personal preference, we have been considering replacing them in the near future as part of a continuing programme of maintenance. The balcony chairs are clean and modern. They have an aluminium frame due to the close proximity to the sea and are like new. Most of the holiday lets in this area have similar bathrooms; there is a good centre light and two bright bulbs in the light over the mirror. We will arrange for a grab rail to be placed over the bath. Sykes and Menai Holidays take the trouble of providing very accurate photographs of the holiday properties on their websites, including bathrooms, which help potential visitors select a property to meet their needs. We are proud of our excellent feedback from holiday-makers and are sorry the property did not meet your requirements. Property Owner

"Perfect location and stunning views."
Beds extremely uncomfortable and settees old covered up with cheap throws!!
-
"I had a lovely stay at Delfryd."
The property is very clean, comfortable and has a well equipped kitchen for self catering. The balcony off the living area has an excellent view over the Menai Straits and is great for sitting out and relaxing. The property is well situated for travelling over to Anglesey within minutes or visiting other parts of North Wales. I would not hesitate to recommend Delfryd and hope to return myself at some point in the near future.

"We had a wonderful time in Y fellinheli, Delfryd is a fabulous home, clean, warm, comfortable and welcoming."
It is furnished to a very good standard and the views are outstanding, changing all the time. We appreciated the welcome pack of milk, butter and Bara Brith, thank you. We enjoyed walking down to Swellies on the Marina for breakfast, lunch or glass of wine, also the local pub is welcoming and has a very good Bistro, the food is delicious. We enjoyed plenty of lovely walks around the local area and beyond even more so as the weather was kind to us. We will definitely return. Thank you to the owners for sharing this lovely property with us. Elaine and Steve

"Great location as a base for exploring Snowdonia/Anglesey."
The house was clean and in good repair. Everything was easy to find/use. Really only for the more mobile, as there are stairs down from the parking area to the front door and, being an ‘upside-down’ house, lots of up and down the stairs. Welcome gift of bara brith was a nice touch. And, of course, the stunning view which changes all the time! We really enjoyed our stay there.
-
"Absolutely gorgeous place to stay, we loved every moment."
The views from the Balcony, the local cafe for breakfast, loads to do and all within a short drive. This really is a gem of a place
-
"Well equipped - beautiful view from the lounge and balcony"
-
"Great view had a lovely holiday."
Thanks
-
"Great stay."
Fab views. Will return for sure. Two issues. 1. Dishwasher filter had not been cleaned in months. Pretty disgusting. 2. Roller blind in twin room is about to fall down. This did not happen last week. It must have been obvious to cleaning staff,,,,maybe they thought it would repair itself. Keith
-
"Beautiful location, very comfortable and everything that might be needed for self catering was provided."
Just one small point would be that it would have been nice to have been told that it was okay to park anywhere on the site as we weren't sure and decided we needed to ask someone.
-
"We had a great stay at Delfryd, ideal location for visiting Conwy, Bangor, Snowdonia and Anglesey."
We had an issue while we were away but this was sorted swiftly by Menai holidays and we would return in the future. Property was spotlessly clean and everything catered for. Many thanks for a great vacation.
-

Personally could not fault the property or location.

"Property owner was very responsive & helpful We loved the property & its location."
Fab views. Property was very clean. Only criticism is toilet location squeezed in between bath & hot radiator
-
"Lovely stay at Delfryd and yes, the view is absolutely stunning."
The perfect base to visit attractions in the area. I'm sure I will be back.
-
"A lovely place and what a view, wish it was mine"
-
"We have rented many holiday homes here and abroad and this has been the best by far, not just because of its location."
The quality of bedding, kitchenware and thoughtful extras has raised the bar in our minds, so much so we will consider more rentals with Sykes. No pressure!
-
"We have had a marvellous stay at Delfryd and would happily return again."
The views from the house and the local walks are wonderful, as are the seabirds that arrive daily. This is a small, quiet resort which is exactly what we wanted, and we will be looking forward to coming back in the future.
-
"Had a Fantastic time at Delfryd, Fantastic view of the Menai, The owners took great fought into everything that was needed during our stay, Loved sitting on the balcony watching the Paddlers, boats and the Heron who was there every day."

"Location of the property is spot on."
Everything was very convenient and within easy reach.
-
"We had a most enjoyable week at Delfryd."
It was clean, very comfortable and had the most amazing views across to Anglesey. It was a good central location for touring round although we enjoyed a couple of days just relaxing in the peaceful surroundings and watching the resident heron. We would certainly return to Delfryd in the future.
-
"The accommodation was spotless and the view from the balcony was lovely - we even saw a seal!"
