  • "A delightful property in a delightful village."

    It's an ideal location for experiencing North Wales. In the village there are 3 pubs in easy walking distance (2-5 mins), all of them dog friendly. The cafe is also dog friendly & supplies a lovely breakfast. It's quiet, it's comfortable, it's relaxing. The property is up a short (1 min walk), but steep hill. If you have difficulties in walking it may not be suitable but it's far from a major climb for the able bodied. The inside was immaculate & had the basics you need for a self catering holiday, including a welcome pack of wine & pizza ingredients. For tea and coffee lovers you need to take some milk though. The worst I could possibly say (and I struggle to find anything bad to say) was that we had a fight with the tin opener and the tin opener won. Who needs mushy peas with a pie anyway

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback I am delighted you had such a lovely time. Thank you for alerting me to the tin opener, I will get a replacement sorted. Very best wishes to you all Property Owner

  • "Wonderful stay at the Sail Loft."

    The house was very easy to find from the instructions and it is situated in a quiet residential area, just a short walk to the Marina, which is lovely in itself. The location is perfect, with places of interest within easy distance. The owners have thought of everything for a perfect stay; the house was warm, clean, well equipped with everything one could possibly need and the welcome gifts were very much appreciated. Thank you. Would we stay again? In a heartbeat ! Would we recommend to others? Absolutely !

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I am so delighted that you enjoyed it so much. Really appreciate your feedback I hope to welcome you back in the very near future Best wishes to you all Property Owner

  • "Quiet location with ample parking space, located at 10 mins drive from both Caernarvon and Anglesey."

    The house is upside-down so very light in the living areas. Extremely tasteful decoration with maritime and sailing accents throughout. Kitchen & sleeping areas proper clean and well equipped, although it's a bit odd to have a washing machine and no means at all to dry your clothes. Throughout the week we noticed a slight hint of some damp in the downstairs. No mould or anything like that, but maybe something to look into.

    Thank you for your feedback I am so sorry you thought it was damp? Do you feel the accuracy on the listing, facilities and comfort were not correct? What do you think needs changing? I am not aware of any damp anywhere. I normally put my washing on the backs of the chairs on the balcony, but I have ordered a washing airer. Thank you Property Owner

  • "The Sail Loft was fantastic great location."

    The only negative we could find was the en-suite sink is too small for a shave or putting makeup on with. The shower was nice and big though

    Thank you so much for your feedback. I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay. I appreciate the sink in the en-suite is a bit small but it was the biggest we could fit into the space and as you say the shower is nice and big. But thank you and best wishes to you Property Owner
