  Superb location for getting to all that North Wales and Anglesey has to offer. Will be back.

• "Beautiful property in a small village but quite close to small towns so plenty to see and do, I would say that you need a car for this property as there is no shops or pubs in the village."

  We were looking for a place that was peaceful and that's what we got. Would certainly go again.

• "Really enjoyed our stay at Isallt."

  Nice cottage with comfortable beds, very good showers and nice garden. Only issue was the horses have gone from across the road. :(

• "We had a fabulous stay in July, despite the rain!"

  The house is well equipped with all the essentials, along with little extras like hand-wash in all the bathrooms, toilet rolls and some washing powder etc. The only small niggle was that the bath water only runs lukewarm, definitely not warm enough for a bath. The views over the Menai Strait were gorgeous, I think we watched each sunset from the living room window! The village is very quiet with no shops, but has a lovely slate walk through the countryside and village. We spent a few days exploring and there is lots to see and do in the area, we explored Bangor, Caernarfon and went up The Snowdon Mountain Railway. We would definitely recommend staying here, thanks again Michael.

• "We really enjoyed our time at Isallt."

  The property is very well furnished, has all the facilities you need and is spotlessly clean. Michael was very helpful to us. The location is perfect for exploring both mountains and coast. Beautiful scenery is just a short drive away and we were lucky to get fantastic weather! The horses in the field opposite are delightful! We would definitely recommend Isallt.

  It was lovely to come back to this property it was as good as we remembered. Bright, spacious, spotless & comfortable. The view across to Anglesey is fantastic, glorious sunsets. It is in a great location for exploring North Wales. The village is so peaceful with lovely walks around the lanes & slate trail. Great communication with the owners, Michael & Wendy. We'll definitely visit again.

• "Second time that we have stayed here."

  It really is a great home to base your holiday. We stayed as a couple in a place for six. If we return it would be with son, wife and grand children. Just can't fault it - everything that you need. Clean, comfortable, spacious and in a really nice quiet elevated location overlooking the Menai Straight. Gems like this are not easy to find.

• "Such a lovely house, so well equipped and furnished."

  Lovely bonus of the travel cot, highchair and stair gate. Loved that cupboard under sink had a child lock. Very clean. Just a lovely house. Perfect for toddlers, families and just any group of 6. Couldn't recommend more.

• "Ideally situated for Caernarfon and surrounding area."

  House very clean, kitchen well stocked with pots, pans, glasses, plates and cutlery. Rooms all reasonably sized. Grandchildren thought the fields opposite with sheep/lambs, horses and rabbits were the highlight of the stay

• "Isallt is a modern, well equipped house set on a very quiet lane to the edge of the village."

  It's very spacious in size and the provision of multiple bathrooms is very convenient. The rooms and decking to the rear overlook the Menai Straight and those rooms to the front overlook a field of horses when was nice. The slate trail walk from the centre of the village is worth exploring for local walk. Would recommend.

• "Very comfortable and well equipped modern house, fairly close to several supermarkets and easy reach to North Wales attractions."

  Plenty of clean towels and comfortable beds/quality bedding and handwash/washing up liquid/dishwasher tablets/generous allowance of toilet paper was appreciated and unusual with most holiday lets. Overall a home from home with a beautiful view from the back looking out to the Menai Straits.

  The house is well appointed and spotlessly clean. Everything works and the furnishings are very comfortable. It is exactly as described on your website. We met the owner and he was very friendly and helpful.

• "The property was lovely and met our needs brilliantly."

  The directions were very easy to follow. We had a great time. The only negatives are no instructions as to what to do with bedding/ towels. The other thing us that the garden furniture needed cleaning before we could use it. Altogether, a lovely stay and great value for money.

• "Isallt was exactly what we were expecting and needed from our stay, with everything you could possibly need from the kitchen, including tea towels, oven gloves etc."

  The view from the rear of the property over the Menai Strait was a real treat, especially as the living/dining room overlooked it. The beds were comfy, with soft bedding, and there were plenty of hand towels and bath towels provided. We met the human neighbours who were very friendly and quiet, and the animal neighbours were a delight! It really was a lovely surprise having the horses in the field at the front, especially as they had 2 foals. There aren't any amenities in Rhostryfan, but there are some nice walks along the old railway line, and you are very close to a Morrisons Daily if you run out of something. Caernarfon is very close by and has a selection of supermarkets and takeaways. Last but not least, Wendy and Michael are incredibly helpful, and when our car broke down and we were stuck the day before we were due to leave, Michael pushed our check out time back to give us time to arrange a hire car, and offered his help, making an incredibly stressful time easier! We would definitely stay here again.

• "We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at Isallt."

  The accommodation was spacious, clean and the views were stunning (photos taken of the sunset over the Menai Strait were a particular highlight), including the appearance of horses whenever we arrived or departed the house! The location was central to many of the places we visited, and we'd absolutely look to stay there again when visiting my extended family in North Wales.

• "This is a wonderful property in a wonderful location."

  Immaculately presented, light & spacious. The views across the Menai Strait to Anglesey & the mountains on Holyhead are great & we had some amazing sunsets. Sitting on the decking watching butterflies, buzzards & bats flying around was wonderful. There are lovely walks around the village on the old slate railway lines & the country lanes. There are so many places to visit within easy reach. I would thoroughly recommend this property, communication with the owners was great too.

  We had a lovely week away. The house is well positioned to drive to numerous places. One massive bonus as I’m always cold is that we had control of the heating. So many holiday cottages are freezing because the owners turn the heating off remotely. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and we would definitely book again. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

• "Isallt is a large, modern and quite new property (so squeaky floorboards!"

  ) with a super fitted kitchen with all appliances that you need. It is very comfortable and has perfect Wi-Fi. The central heating system is excellent and easy to turn on when needed. Useful to be able to park in front of the building and the situation is perfect - very quiet, a wonderful view towards the Menai Straights and Snowdon only 15 - 20 minutes drive away. Caernarfon and the large shopping centre on the outskirts of Bangor are also quickly reached. The Sat Nav takes you almost to the door and the direction instructions also help - just remember that the key safe is at the rear of the property. It deserves the highest recommendation and we would happily return!

• "Enjoyed our stay at Isallt ."

  The property was clean & everything you needed. It was spacious enough yet cosy . The location was ideal for travelling surrounding area & was peaceful & quiet . The only negative was we did not find the mattresses on the beds particularly comfortable especially in the main bedroom . Having said this the price was very reasonable but if you don’t get a good nights sleep it’s not ideal on holiday . This could be easily remedied & I wouldn’t be able to fault the property at all .

  We're sorry that the mattress was not comfortable and it will be something we will address. We hope to see you again. Property Owner

• "Had a lovely stay at Isallt."

  We found the property in immaculate condition and tastefully furnished, with everything we could need. (Even better than the pictures online)! We liked the attention to detail in the décor. There are breath-taking sunsets from on the decking (the garden furniture was an extra advantage), and beautiful views from the bedrooms. The owner was gracious enough to find and mail back to us an item that was left in the property. Hope to be back.

• "This is a really nice place to stay."

  It is modern, well equipped and spotlessly clean throughout. Beds and large lounge sofa are very comfortable. Excellent dining area for a full complement of 6. Patio doors leading to veranda deck overlook Menai Strait in the middle distance. This type of place comes under the heading of don't tell anybody about it to ensure that you can re-book easily the next time, but that would not do justice to the owner, Michael who we spoke to and was most helpfull.

• "The property was very well presented and also well equipped."

  It took us a few minutes to find it after we arrived in the village. We were only a few yards away, but the sat nav deposited us around the corner and it was quite dark. The angle of the picture on the site gives the impression that the house stands alone in a prominent position, and that made it slightly harder to pick out because there is a building either side, one of which hides it from the road. The lane on which the house stands is the last on the right in the village (if you are travelling uphill), just after a small cul de sac (forgotten the name now), and the house is the the second one in (but first front door as the first house is the other way around). That's not a complaint - it's just to aid anyone else arriving.

• "We have just spent a week at Isallt and it’s excellent."

  !! Well equipped with numerous quality kitchen items, quality beds and bedding, quality towels and absolutely spotless. Fantastic views of Menai Straits from lounge and rear bedrooms, it is in a very quiet location in a small village, be aware no local shop but there are various large supermarkets only 5 - 10 mins drive away. We are Ramblers and there are numerous walks close to property, we walked down some lanes to Dinas train station then followed the track to Caernarfon, easy flat walk about 3.5 miles. Isallt is an excellent base to explore many areas of North Wales and the Llyn Peninsula. During the course of our week we visited and explored Caernarfon, Llanbedrog, Abersoch, Beaumaris, Llanberis including climbing up & down Snowdon, Aberdaron, Whistling Sands, Morfa Nefyn, Nefyn, Pwllheli, Porthmadog, Portmerion and Criccieth. We will DEFINITELY be returning it has been the best holiday ever..!!!!

  Really good location, and more than suitable for a group of people - 3 toilets and 2 showers definitely helped. All very clean and off-street parking was also beneficial too. The house was only built in 2018, so everything is pretty much brand new and all up to the latest standards. Very helpful host, and we'd definitely book this property again!

• "This property is superb."

  Lovely house, everything seemed brand new. Particularly like the position of the house, as the views are fantastic and it is well placed to travel in various directions to see all the great places around. Only 6 m from the nearest beach Dinas Dinlle, which is amazing and a must visit place, shortish drive to Snowdon paths, Caernarfon, and Lake Padarn which the children loved. Walkable (2m) to first class restaurant, Plas Dinas. Not cheap but worth every penny, uphill walk on way back but much needed as we ate so much! Small garden, but there is so much to do in the area, we did not need garden to play in (note if you have tots - there is no gate, so garden is unsecured). Would wholeheartedly recommend and would love to return.

• "Lovely warm, comfy house with beautiful view across Menai Straights."

  Heating is adjustable so if weather changes you can warm or cool down the house as you wish. Bed was very good and ensuite shower fantastic. Couldn’t get hot water from bath taps which was disappointing as all other taps ran hot and fast. House is well equipped generally, the only odd thing was no hooks on bedroom or bathroom doors to hang robes and no towel rails for bath towels. Each toilet did have a small hand towel on a ring and hand wash provided which was great. Television has Freeview and Amazon fire stick so if you sign into your Amazon account you can watch a film or series in the evening on a good sized flat screen TV on the large corner sofa - so it evenings are not warm enough to enjoy the patio you are still able to relax in comfort with tv or a book. The village doesn’t have a shop in walking distance and no welcome pack at all in house so come prepared with own snacks if you’ve travelled far and want a cuppa and a rest on arrival! Overall a good place for a break where you can be in Caernarfon or Llanberis in under half an hour.
