  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the property was roomy, comfortable and very well equipped and was in an ideal location."

    The heating system was unfamiliar with us but once we worked it out things improved, the fire in the lounge was very efficient. Greatly appreciated the welcome pack.

  • "Lovely house and area to stay in lots to do even if a short drive from the area."

    House was lovely and clean upon arrival had everything you need on arrival. The only thing that was a slight problem was that the Lowe quadrant of the oven didn’t work and the door of the top quadrant didn’t stay but unless you held it, would definitely still go back to the same house and area again

    Thank you for your comments, I wish you had let me know while you were there about the oven issues as I could of resolved the problem you had over the phone in a matter of minutes. I hope it didn’t disrupt your stay. Property Owner

  • "This is a really lovely place to stay especially having a garden to sit and relax after a long walk."

    ..the only thing I would say to do is put a fence up along the back wall so the property is more private and not overlooked, and maybe replace the table and chairs outside to match the nice ratan loungers, would finish the property off nicely,,but other than that it's a very comfortable place to stay and would definitely stay there again.

    Thank you for the feedback. Property Owner

  • "What can I say about this absolute little gem?"

    ? We have just had the most wonderful stay at Ty Gilbert. Firstly, the location of this holiday home is superb. On a quiet cul de sac tucked back off the main street but in very easy walking distance (literally minutes) from the shops, takeaways, pubs and restaurants and just 10 mins down to the most superb long sandy beach. It meant we could park up and leave the car (unless we went further afield of course) The bungalow was spacious and well equipped with everything we needed to give us a comfy stay. The welcome gifts were very generous and very much appreciated (both by us and the dogs!) The beds were comfy, the shower was nice and the secure garden was perfect for the dogs. There were books, a Wii, games and a decent TV for wetter days (thankfully we didn't have any of those) There was nothing we didn't like about this place and we felt really at home there. The owners have really thought of everything to make sure that you have a lovely stay. We really can't recommend it enough!! Next time we come back to Benllech we just hope its available so we can stay again! Highly recommended!

    Thank you very much for your review, much appreciated Property Owner

  • "Recently stayed at this property absolutely spotlessly clean."

    Lovely welcome gesture thank you of Welsh cakes, cava, doggy treats! Everything is thought about a home from home would highly recommend this property. Lovely garden which had been mowed before arrival great for our dog to roam around well secure. Was workmen renovating house few yards away daily so not as peaceful as we would have liked, maybe best to consider to make holiday makers aware to prevent complaints, were early wakers so this didn't impact that much and we went out most days to visit areas of Anglesey away from it Nevertheless this is great location, we ate at pebbles and rasoi restaurants in benllech great food & service. Beaches are beautiful we were lucky with the weather very sunny & warm. Thank you for allowing us to share your home.

    10 minutes walk to the beach.The bungalow has a large kitchen with every facility in it, large comfortable living room, and three double bedrooms (one with two single beds). Two bathrooms. It’s extremely comfortable with a good sized garden at rear. I honestly don’t know what more you could ask for. It’s an excellent price, and if you are looking for a relaxing stay this one’s for you.

  • "A nice well set out bungalow in a very good location."

    Car parking was a little awkward for 2 cars, had to maneuver 2nd car over a manhole cover and edging stones. Cleaner may have been having a bad day before we arrived, the hall table was thick in dust, but mostly the house was clean. Downstairs bedroom is rather smelly. Not sure if it is damp ( had that Tom cat smell) and the bed needs replacing. Other bedrooms were fine although I think it might be worth mentioning, in the property description, that the doorway to one of the upstairs bedrooms is very low. Personally I think it would have been better to put the single beds in here for children and put the double bed in the larger room. Dinning space for 6 people is a bit squashed, but the kitchen is well equipped. Garden area is good and secure for children and pets. Overall it is a nice property but in need of a little TLC.

    Thanks for your feedback, we have replaced the carpet in the downstairs bedroom which has hopefully addressed the odour. The bed in here is actually only 2 years old, we’re finding bed comfort varies for each guest and will monitor comments on this in the future. Property Owner

Kitchen was superb and had every item you could need or require, even a slow cooker, which was amazing. Owner was good at communicating with us, and we will certainly return.
