“We think it would benefit from having a cloakroom on the ground floor.”

Wakerley used to be my husband's Grandmother's house and he and his sisters were very interested in seeing how the property had changed from when they were children

“Nice property in a beautiful location.”

Everything provided for. Very welcomed food and wine parcel on arrival. The only criticism would be on the need for better bathroom's towels and bedding as house can be quite cold,even in June. There were also no instructions about the heating system.

“Simply a wonderful house in the perfect location.”

Suited us all perfectly - comfortable, plenty of room for 3 teenagers and 2 adults, facilities were more than we expected and such a lovely house to stay in. Thank you so much, we had a wonderful long weekend stay.

- Elisabeth, March 2024

Thank you so much for your excellent feedback we are glad you had a wonderful time and enjoyed staying in Beaumaris. We hope to see you again soon. Property Owner
Marina October 2023

“House was as listed.”

Outside decking/seating area could do with some attention to make it more pleasurable to use the small outside space. We didn't use for this reason. No anti slip mat in first floor bathroom made it quite dangerous in the wet shower. Dining area quite cold in attached room. Would,be,more beneficial putting table in the middle room in the house which is probably the designated dining space . Owner is easily contactable if needed and some lovely welcome gifts on arrival. House would benefit from a little decorating in places. However really good situation in Beaumaris and private parking a,bonus and selling point for this house.

- Marina, October 2023

Thank you for your review. The outside space is often wet in October, the benefits of the outside space are mainly enjoyed during the summer months (when hopefully the sun is shining) as with all properties. We will provide an anti slip mat for future guests for the bathroom thank you for your feedback. The sun room is usually very cosy in the winter months we are sorry you found it cold perhaps the radiator was not fully turned up as we have not heard this before. All heating can be controlled by the hive system and can easily be turned up for your comfort if you are cold. Property Owner

“Lovely property but needed a deep clean.”

Plugholes were a disgrace with massive dirty hairballs. Kitchen appliances such as dishwasher greasy. Fridge far too small for 8 guests and wardrobe hanging space insufficient for 8. Outside space needs attention as scruffy. Noisy work on next door property. Very difficult to get phone coverage and some days could not get any TV stations at all. Having said all this, we enjoyed our stay, despite dreadful weather which caused the dining room roof to leak. Very noisy 'plastic' roof on dining room was incredibly noisy during downpours. Helpful owner who explained how the heating worked when we failed to master it! Overall, lovely property with parking (although lots of steps to navigate) but could be better. Beds comfortable but a lightweight duvet in October was insufficient. I wouldn't return whilst the Welsh Govt subjugates its people and punishes tourists with ridiculous 'rules' re speed limit etc. Many places in the UK to visit that don't treat visitors like criminals.

- Derek, September 2023

Thank you for your feedback we are glad you enjoyed your stay despite the dreadful weather and that over all you found our property lovely with comfortable beds. We have not had any negative comments before regarding cleanliness please see previous reviews however we will pass the comments onto our housekeeper to see if there are any improvements we can make. We are sorry you found the dishwasher greasy, may be the dishwasher was not set on the correct cycle and that you found the family size fridge too small, the sound of rain on the conservatory roof noisy (most guests normally enjoy the sound of rain whilst being cosy inside) or were not able to work the TV or the hive heating system so you could heat the house to your comfort, again all previous guests have managed this however we are glad we were able to assist with this upon your arrival. *The outside space is often wet in October, the benefits of the outside space are mainly enjoyed during the summer months (when hopefully the sun is shining) as with all properties. *There are also two double wardrobes plus draws, cupboards etc and space under the single beds to store bags etc so are sorry you did not find this sufficient. There is also wifi throughout the house not sure if you managed to find the password above the kettle in the kitchen you could make whatsapp calls if you were struggling to get a signal however there is normally a full signal in the front half of the house. The Welsh speed limit is unfortunately out of our control. Property Owner

“The house was well maintained and had everything we needed.”

Great location and private parking for 2 cars. The weather was glorious week which was sn added bonus. Would highly recommend.

“The inside of the house was very good but disappointed with the out side space and rear axes.”

“Lovely house, great for a family Nice and large and airy Car parking was a bonus Good location for the town”

Leslie May 2023

“This is a lovely house and very spacious, containing all the comforts of home.”

There was a great welcome pack in the kitchen which was much appreciated. It has parking for two cars which, in Beaumaris, is a great advantage as so many streets have double yellow lines. It is perfectly placed for a five minute walk to the main street of the town and all the amenities on offer. A house guide gives all the information a visitor needs to enjoy the house and the facilities in the town including how the local restaurants are regarded!! I'd happily recommend a stay in this house!

Rianne September 2022

“Waverley House is in a beautiful location, just a short walk to the shops, lovely bakery, butchers, Spar shop as well as the castle and all the small craft and gift shops, art galleries, restaurants etc.”

Beaumaris is stunning on the Anglesey Coast with easy drives to beaches, coastal walks, Snowdonia. The house is really bright and well furnished. A kitchen with plenty of plates, glasses, pots, dishes so we even managed to entertain friends for an evening meal. Great central heating and a well put together folder with notes for guests. Could not fault anything and definitely will recommend and consider another holiday in the future for ourselves. The decor is very tastefully done with lots of "sea & maritime" elements all coordinated with mostly white and splashes of sea blue - as soon as we walked in it was a very beautiful home and the welcome cake, wine and even milk were lovely touches.

- Rianne, September 2022
Nerys September 2022

“This is the second time we have stayed in this lovely house.”

It is comfortable spacious and very clean. Everything you need is catered for. I love all the pictures and the lamps and furnishings. We received a lovely welcome pack on arrival. Hopefully we can visit again.

Paul August 2022

“The property was very clean, spacious and the owner made it very welcoming.”

It is within a couple of minutes from the beach and has outstanding views of Snowdonia. All the rooms had an individual character and were decorated to a high standard. Needless to say they are very comfortable too. The property was a true home from home and a perfect base for exploring Anglesey . Highly recommended by all of our party .

- Paul, August 2022
Stephen August 2022

“Excellent house within easy walking distance of the town's facilities and attractions.”

It was clean, spacious and the decorations emphasised the seaside. There was a good view of the Menai Straights and the mountains of Snowdonia from the front bedrooms. The party ranged in age from nearly 4 to 70 and we all enjoyed staying there. The children didn't want to go home. It was well equipped and the only 2 things we missed were a clothes basket to empty the washer and a cafetiere or coffee machine. We were greeted with complimentary wine, tea, instant coffee, milk, Welsh cakes and bara brith, all of which were very much appreciated.

- Stephen, August 2022
Pamela Jill July 2022

“We loved our holiday in this house.”

It was even nicer than the photos suggest. It was also really convenient for town and brilliant that we had a large double parking space in the heart of a town with narrow roads and limited parking. We went on a boat trip to puffin island and saw wild dolphins. We went coasteering with b-active@rhoscolyn which was amazing (recommend). Anglesey offer a lot, there was plenty to do just on the island for the week.

- Pamela Jill, July 2022
Beverley June 2022

“We had a fantastic stay at Waverley House.”

The decor & furniture was beautiful & just to out taste. Inside is spacious but just lacking in storage space in the smaller bedrooms. Outside at the back could do with a bit of a spruce up & attention to the top floor stairs but it was a lovely area to sit out in the sunshine & very private with some lovely pots & plants, reminded us of Greece with the white steps & walls. Parking was good as we had two cars & exploring the area was easy. Beaumaris has plenty shops & places to eat & drink & the little pier was lovely & the views of the mountains are stunning.

- Beverley, June 2022
Nerys September 2021

“Waverley House was a fantastic location.”

The house was lovely with lots of quirky furnishings. It was very clean and really well stocked with crockery etc. It was very comfortable (especially the beds) and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. An added bonus was being able to park at the house. The house is really convenient for the town and castle. We will certainly like to return in the future and will recommend the venue to our friends.

- Nerys, September 2021
Dawn July 2021

“Lovely house, perfectly situated for Beaumaris centre which was a 5 minute walk.”

House was bright and airy, beautiful decor, lots of space for our family of 5. Off road parking for 2 cars was great. Only thing to improve I would suggest is the possibility of a downstairs toilet for guests who may not be quite as mobile, wasn't a problem for us though. We loved our stay and hope to return in the future.

- Dawn, July 2021
Tessa June 2021

“Loved our stay, a real beachy holiday feel to it, comfy beds, plenty of towels/mugs,plates etc, nice terrace, convenient to center.”

Very clean. Would certainly recommend to others.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, we are delighted to hear you loved your stay. Property Owner
Jeanette June 2021

“The house is amazing, the beds are very comfortable.”

The pictures and ornaments are very interesting and lend a great atmosphere to the house. It’s very close to the town centre and we can recommend the Castle, Jail and courthouse as well. The outside space needs some tlc.

- Jeanette, June 2021

Thank you so much for your feedback. We note your feedback the outdoor space requires some TLC, we have planned renovations for this during our stay this summer. Property Owner

“Great house with everything you could need!”

- Andy, October 2019
Andrew September 2019

“General cleanliness was fine.”

However on arrival there was rubbish in the waste bin in the lounge including a discarded Banana Skin!! This was clearly not checked properly before our arrival. We did e-mail the contact (Allison Croker) immediately including a photograph, but did not receive any response at all. This to us is unsatisfactory. Also, there was no washing up bowl in the Kitchen or a plug for the sink, therefore obtaining hot water for cleaning kitchen / surfaces was very difficult as had to be done under a running tap. Hanging space for longer clothes items (i.e. Trousers, dresses, etc.) in bedrooms was non existent.Besides these issues the property was most satisfactory.

- Andrew, September 2019

Thank you for your comments. We apologise for our housekeeper missing one hidden bin behind the sofa containing a small amount of rubbish ( a few sweet papers and banana skin), our housekeeper was notified and also apologises. We are glad the cleanliness of the rest of the house was to your satisfaction in line with our previous reviews. We don't provide a washing up bowl as a new Smeg diswasher is provided to wash all dishes and a large amount of cleaning products can be found under the sink and in the cleaning cupboard to clean any surfaces. Re the hanging space there are two full wall's of fitted wardrobes in both the double bedrooms of standard configuration and as there were only two of you staying in the four bedroom property we are surprised you did not consider this to be sufficient. We are glad despite the above you still found the property most satisfactory. Property Owner

Step up into the property and be welcomed by the homely sitting room with comfy leather sofas, Smart TV and a woodburning stove making it the perfect spot to sit and put your feet up, with the added play area for the children, complete with their own little table and chairs.

A second snug is a lovely area to enjoy some quiet time if you just want to relax and chill out with a good book.

The kitchen is well-appointed with all the essential appliances and the dining room accommodates everyone comfortably so family meals can be enjoyed together.

The 2 upper floors accommodate 4 well-appointed bedrooms with crisp bed linen and comfy beds, ensuring a good nights sleep.

With the coast only a 2-minute stroll away and the famous historic castle, Victorian pier, goal and courthouse about 5 minutes away, relax and watch the many yachts sailing in and out of the harbour before visiting the many independent craft shops, restaurants and pubs in this lovely town.

There are also fishing opportunities and boat trips from the town to other parts of Wales, plus if you are feeling energetic, there is a golf course nearby, there is so much to see and do without even getting in the car!

Explore the island, visiting the National Trust's Plas Newydd, the beaches at Rhosneigr, Trearddur Bay or Benllech, or hike the coastal path visiting South Stack Lighthouse on the way.

About the location

BEAUMARIS

Menai Bridge 4 miles.

Beaumaris is a well known historic town on the Isle of Anglesey situated on the Menai Strait and overlooking the Snowdonia mountain range, making for the most stunning of sunrises. With its medieval castle (now a World Heritage site) dating back to the reign of Edward I and its Victorian pier, gaol and courthouse, it is also known as a major centre for yachting. Beaumaris is rich in history and retains much of its medieval street pattern. It’s setting, diversity of architectural styles and periods, differing scale, open spaces, varying roofs and overall quality contribute greatly to the town’s character. There is a good selection of shops, restaurants and public houses, as well as fishing opportunities and boat trips in the town, plus a golf course nearby. Along the coast is a large bay called Red Wharf Bay; its Welsh name is Traeth Coch (Red Beach) and the area is renowned for its glorious sunsets. The bay is very shallow and at low tide, almost 25 square kilometres (10 sq. mi.) of sand is uncovered providing safe bathing, perfect for wonderful family fun, fishing and miles of stunning scenic walks. Further afield is the port of Holyhead, which has regular ferry links to Dublin. Beaumaris is a good central base for touring Wales, in a beautiful location on the south coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey, within easy reach of the spectacular mountains of Snowdonia.

Note: no stag or hen parties or similar.
Note: maximum 6 adults and 2 children.
Please note; The beds will be made up as four singles and two super kings - If you do require the beds made up different, please contact Sykes Cottages two weeks prior to arrival.
