• "We loved this cottage, it was a great base for exploring Anglesey."

  There was a great welcome pack which was appreciated as it meant we didn’t need to rush out to the shops. I met the owners who were very friendly and welcoming. The cottage is one of the best we’ve stayed in, everything was spotless and looked new, the settee was different to the photos but was probably more comfortable than the originals, it was a large corner settee with recliners at each end. The garden was fully enclosed as described even for our 2 small dogs so we didn’t have to worry at all. There were a few cobwebs but the ceilings are so high it’s only to be expected. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone visiting Anglesey.

• "This property is centrally located on Anglesey for all destinations across the island."

  The description is as described on Sykes website. Very quiet and peaceful location ,extremely well appointed inside and out with all necessary amenities provided. The owners introduced themselves on arrival so we could ask a few questions which was a great help. Also appreciated the welcome pack on our day of arrival as it takes time to locate nearest store etc. Welcome packs are often mentioned in reviews for other cottages I have stayed at on Sykes site but this was the first time that this has been provided so a big thank you to the owners. The pack enabled us to settle in before going out shopping for some basic supplies the next day after a long drive to get there. Would recommend this cottage (1) in particular as the location is IMO the best of the 3 cottages for mountain views on a clear day and the enclosed space (especially as we had the dog with us). We also had access to an enclosed large paddock which was ideal for exercising a greyhound. Many thanks for an enjoyable break. Recommended and would certainly return .

• "We had a wonderful stay at Mountain view, the cottage is beautiful, lovely hosts, very dog friendly and well situated on the island."

  The only thing I would suggest is that the size of the shower needs to be in the cottage description (if it isn't already and I have missed it) it is very small and for a larger person this could be a real challenge, especially with no other bathing options.

• "Excellent holiday cottage, very clean, comfortable, peaceful, very well equipped and ideal for anyone with mobility issues."

  The enclosed field for the dog to play in was great. Would not hesitate to recommend, and would certainly book again in the future if we were to visit Anglesey again. The treats were a lovely thought too. Thank you Sion.

• "2nd visit to Mountain View ."

  Would highly recommend this cozy cottage to anyone wanting a peaceful and rural setting on your doorstep . Plenty of beaches nearby to walk your dogs as well as places to eat or takeaway. Sion and Donna were the perfect hosts making you feel welcome with a personal visit on your arrival. The added extras of bread butter, milk, eggs and a bottle of Prosecco was a lovely surprise and much appreciated.

• "Excellent stay at 1 Mountain View."

  The lovely hosts live next door yet only seen them once to welcome us. Very tranquil location and the most secure area for dogs as all gardens are totally enclosed. The cottage was very bright, fresh and clean with a lovely welcome pack. They have absolutely everything you could want for and I'm sure if you needed anything, they'd accommodate you as much as they could. Locally the dogs can go off lead if good at recall. Lovely village near by with all shops and usual supermarkets etc. We would highly recommend 1 Mountain View. Thanks for having us. We hope to be back. John, Claire, Callum and our two Labs (Jessie and Sandy).

• "The perfect property for our needs: modern yet comfortable decoration, well -appointed, great location and, most importantly for us, with a properly secure enclosed garden for our two dogs."

  The owners introduced themselves and were helpful. The interior has been significantly upgraded since the photos which was a pleasant surprise - now has a lovely L-shaped sofa with two recliners and nicer oak bedroom furniture. Beds and sofa very comfy. Only slight niggle was intermittent wifi. Would come back again and highly recommend, especially to those with dogs as it is very hard to find a truly secure garden.

• "1 Mountain View is honestly one of the nicest holiday cottages we’ve stayed in with our dogs, the cottage was immaculate and so well presented when we arrived, we immediately knew we would enjoy our stay there."

  The cottage is perfectly placed for exploring the beautiful island of Anglesey, and is the perfect place to retreat to of an evening for a comfortable and cosy night (or day if the weather is bad) relaxing time. The owners were so friendly and helpful but not at all intrusive. Having the secure garden space wrapped around the cottage was perfect for our two small dogs. Absolutely perfect in every way & we hope to return again in the future.

• "I have to be honest here."

  The property itself is lovely & in a fantastic position to explore Anglesey. Sadly that was as good as it got for us. •The furniture is extremely uncomfortable. The beds/mattresses are very poor (considering they are only 2 years old), they sag in the middle, so it was like trying to sleep on the side of a hill! We turned the mattresses but it didn't help. •The sofas are shiny plastic & far too small for 3 adults. If you sit on them you stick to them, and if you use the throws provided you slip straight off. We simply weren't comfortable. •There are no instructions on how to use any of the appliances (we spent half an hour trying to get the oven to work..it's not a case of simply turning it on). A basic user manual for the appliance's is required. •More crockery is also required as there's only 4 of most things, so you're constantly washing up. If those things were rectified it would be a lovely place to stay, but as it stands we wouldn't recommend.

  Thank you for your response, all of which we we look into. Instructions for how to operate implements are in the kitchen drawers and in the welcome book, as we mentioned on your arrival, we live on site and here to help. We helped you when you lost the property keys, did not charge you for replacement and dealt with it immediately. We would have dealt with any questions you had the same day, we hope everybody enjoys their stay with us. This is the first criticism we have received about the bed being uncomfortable and will look at it immediately and will do the same with the sofas. Thanks Sion and Donna Property Owner

  As constructive feedback can I add, although not a necessity, a full length mirror would be an added touch, especially for us ladies. Something and nothing but if it was my property I would lower the TV so you are not straining your neck to watch it. That said i would highly recommend the accomodation and would stay again.

• "The position of mountain view is peaceful and perfect for exploring Anglesey."

  Outside area is fully enclosed. Perfect if you have a dog or young children. Inside we found that it was tastefully decorated and the bed was reasonably comfortable. On entering the property we were delighted as it looked homely and welcoming. On closing the door we noticed what looked like coffee spilt down the back of the door which we thought was poor however quickly put it behind us. On putting things in the fridge there were crumbs and black hairs from the last occupants. The kitchen cupboards had greasy marks around the handles and hair was in the cutlery drawer. Decided to clean the kitchen and again put it behind us as the owners lived on site and were very friendly so we didn't want to appear that we were complaining and feel uncomfortable the rest of our stay. I thought perhaps they might have been unwell and couldn't clean it properly and just to be thankful. The shower in the evening is really what has prompted us to right this review. Drainage was so slow the tray quickly became full and water started to go over the top. I picked up the hair catcher and there must have been a good couple of months worth of hair stuck to the bottom.... it was disgusting , plus the area hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. Sludge was coming away from the bottom of the shower. I have taken photos so hopefully will be able to add further down. I cleaned the bottom of the shower but drew the line at removing months of other people hair. The shower was also too small for my husband. It was so tight, it was difficult bending down to pick up toiletries. A shower caddy would be useful. This is such a shame , as with a little more care with cleaning this cottage could be excellent. We now felt as if we needed to clean everything. We also had to go out and buy cereal bowls as there weren't any. They did have pasta bowls which we used on the first day but, far too large to use every day plus if you were eating pasta you then had to wash before having pudding. The welcome pack was excellent and really kind. Flowers greeted us on entering which was a lovely touch. It was great to have a vacuum/ ironing board and mop to keep the cottage clean. If it wasn't for the kitchen/bathroom this cottage would have been perfect. The floors were clean as was the outside area. We holiday a lot around the U.K., probably 10 weeks plus a year but wouldn't use this property again.

  Hi Angela I thank you for your honesty in reviewing our cottage. Im sorry that you felt the cleanliness was not up to our normal standards. We have now addressed the issues you raised as follows: * front door- this is a stain from brick acid and will not come off the door, we have tried numerous cleaning products to remove. * we employ an external company to carry out our cleaning, we have passed your comments onto them and i will ensure that i carry out quality checks after the cottage is cleaned . * we have purchased cereal bowls I hope that you will come back to visit us again, as we mentioned when your arrived, we are available to deal with any issues you have and want every visitor to book again with us and enjoy their stay. If there is anything further we can do to help you, please let me know Thanks Sion Property Owner

• "The cottage is lovely and has been finish to a high standard."

  There are only three small criticisms, 1)there were only 4 knives, forks and spoons. I recognise that the accommodation is for 4 but when you have been cooking and using spoons or knives to butter toast and bread it is a pain to have to wash it before you can eat. 2)The sofas are very low and have no upper support which makes them uncomfortable. 3) the shower is so small that for my 6ft 4 husband to bend over to pick up a bottle of shampoo only resulted in him pushing against the glass. Lovely location, great standard and finish on the property. Beds really comfy and the fire was so hot and efficient that we have ordered one for our home.
