“The location of the cottage was great.”

Walking up the hill from the beach helped our fitness levels! The master bed was very comfortable. The view from the lounge was stunning.The kitchenn was well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. There was plenty of hot water and the shower was good. However, there was a musty smell in the twin bedroom, and unfortunately, the recycle bin for cans was full on arrival and not emptied during our stay.

“Arrived at 3.”

20pm to find the cleaner needed another 45 mins. Despite this, it's not the cleanest cottage we've ever stayed in. There's a slight musty smell present. The floor under the settee hadn't been cleaned in some time. The laminate flooring is split near the front door. Description says BBQ available but it was locked in the shed.

“Very comfortable and well equipped bungalow.”

The garden needed some attention as it was getting quite overgrown. Loved Benllech and the weather was very kind to us.

Joy June 2024

“Sea view is in a nice and quiet location in easy reach of pub , shops and beautiful beach !”

But it has got a terrible damp , musty smell so bad when we got there that I had to go and buy air freshener ! We didn’t like having any windows open as overgrown garden had lots of wasps and bees … Sea View had lovely made up beds , great pictures, seaside themed ornaments and newish comfy corner settee but that is where it ends ! The bungalow really needs its paint work updating inside as it is tired and damp and would really benefit from a deep clean every so often as lots off dust on flooring when I moved furniture to hoover

A comfortable and clean accommodation Good that you can record on the tv A ten minute walk to beach and shops Uphill on the way back We have stayed three times and have booked again

“The Bungalow was a perfect location for the area.”

In walking distance. Accurate in description to explain lots of steep roads from the beach and shops. The bungalow was warm and very comfortable. The kitchen had every dish and utensil you can imagine so making meals was like home from home. It took a bit of time to get used to the water system as it's an old boiler system and I'd advise staggering showers to make sure all the hot water doesn't get used up and plan ahead to heat water for dishes. No washing machine which is fine, but the local launderette is bookings only, no walk ins and they were full the whole week we were there. Another one near Bangor was also fully booked and unable to support walk ins. Lots of games to play of an evening and nice mix of adult and kid games. Incredible pictures and seaside themed decorations around the home. Great manual with lots of information was really handy to read. The recycling system was really easy to follow. Towels were provided and of good size. The beds were so comfortable. Perfect holiday home.

Lovely cottage and the locals were very friendly really enjoyed our holiday found only one hand towel between 4 adults was not sufficient also there were toe nails on the rug under coffee table in lounge also table in lounge had not been cleaned sticky marks all over it

- Kevin, September 2023

I was devastated to hear this response as were the cleaning company as we have had constant full marks all season for the cleaning, I can assure this has been addressed, suffice to say the person responsible will not be cleaning my property again. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay and I hope to welcome you back to Seaview next year. Property Owner
Susan September 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay for two weeks Ideal situation short walk to beach Very good that you can record programmes on the TV Our only complaint was lack of hand towels.”

One very small tea towel,one hand towel and one bath mat We were staying for two weeks so not adequate. Perhaps the owner could rectify this. This is our second visit to the property and we would come again.

- Susan, September 2023
Rob August 2023

“Lovely lounge space, kitchen had everything we needed apart from a dishwasher, it’s handy for beach, for shops and to quickly get away to the sights, really easy to get to.”

Off road parking is much appreciated, as is wifi. Couple of minor gripes - two towels for four guests was a bit poor, the immersion heater timer is a bit of a faff, and the bathroom floor gets wet if you’re not careful in the shower.

- Rob, August 2023

John April 2023

“Property was in great location good views and amenities near by.”

Property very clean and bright, with good equipment. During our stay we had strong northerly winds especially over night, this caused something to keep banging in the loft obviously something is loose. It did disturb our sleep, the noise could only really be noticed in the main bedroom loudly, but in other parts of the house only faintly or not at all. So it may be wise for the owners to check it out. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay. Thank you. J and L

- John, April 2023
Sarah April 2023

“Had a fantastic stay here, would like to come back in the summer to take advantage of the outdoor area in nice weather.”

Sky package was a nice bonus with plenty of choice of viewing. Location was great, easy walk to the beach but beware of hill on way back! Kitchen was brilliantly equipped with quality items, shame previous occupiers didn't clean anything. Oven gloves would be a good addition however. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return.

- Sarah, April 2023

“This was a lovely cottage, clean, comfortable and in a quiet area, it is also central for visiting other places.”

The only thing I would have liked is a blind at the kitchen window.

- Sharon, February 2023
Susan September 2022

“The property was lovely.”

Spacious and clean.The bed very uncomfortable.Every time your partner moved the bed rippled.This is very subjective as people like different types of mattresses. Only one small hand towel available.There needs to be more instructions about the TV.A lot of people might not be able to use the sky remote .The TV was turned off when we arrived.Had trouble finding the on off switch.Eventually found it.No milk on arrival. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would return.Just improve the little details

- Susan, September 2022
John July 2022

“The property was well situated for us.”

We do know the area, as we had a static caravan at Pentraeth, for 7 years, so chose this property as a result. We enjoyed our week, very much, particularly as we had good weather, and used the bungalow as a base. Instructions provided, were very clear, and the bungalow, though not luxurious, were excellent for our requirements, so we were not disappointed at all.

“Stayed here a few times.”

Good cottage in good location.

- Brian, May 2022
Susan April 2022

“Excellent property in a good location, close to shops, restaurants & the beach.”

Also ideal spot if you want to explore the island. Property was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay and the bed was particularly comfy. As a bonus the weather was excellent too

- Susan, April 2022
Margaret April 2022

“Had a lovely stay at the cottage.”

Unfortunately due to covid etc I was the only member of the family who was able to go. I live separate to the rest of the family group The accommodation was very comfortable and it was lovely driving round the island

- Margaret, April 2022
David March 2022

“We thought the accommodation was first class.”

...could not fault the cleanliness,location and facilities....would definitely recommend to anyone.....and would certainly return...

- David, March 2022
Janice January 2022

“Lovely bungalow, well situated for our needs.”

Obviously a lot of updating to a high standard recently carried out. However, a fitting of a grab rail in the shower/bath needed as we are both pensioners with slight mobility issues and this would have made a great difference to us. This is the only thing that would prevent us using the property again.

- Janice, January 2022
Luke October 2021

“Property was clean and comfortable.”

Would definitely recommend to friends.

- Luke, October 2021
Lynda September 2021

“On this our second visit we really enjoyed staying at the bungalow.”

It is perfectly placed in a quiet location, yet close to amenities. We could suggest the addition of a grab handle in the bath to aid the elderly or disabled. Hope to stay here again soon x

- Lynda, September 2021
Brian August 2021

“Absolutely loved our stay at sea view it was lovely and clean well equipped with everything you would need , lovey quiet location close to benllech beach and shops , would definitely recommend.”

- Brian, August 2021
Louise July 2021

“Could not fault the bungalow!”

Well equipped, spacious and lovely view of the sea from the terrace. It was a bonus to have a driveway to park the car in safely as well. Would definitely recommend and would certainly stay there again if we go back to Benllech!

- Louise, July 2021
Margaret June 2021

“The location was as described in a quiet area, the accommodation was very good and was pleasantly surprised with its size, and cleanliness.”

A short walk along the main road to the Benllech pub and local shops. The beach in Benllech is beautiful. I would recommend this holiday accommodation to friends and Family.

- Margaret, June 2021
Patricia May 2021

“Very nice place to stay.”

It does really needs updating. The shower was abit tight as the water overflows on the floor. I could not find a mop to clean it up so I had to use tissues. When I arrived there, the bin outside was not being emptied. I found the hoover badly clogged up with long hairs and had to clean that out myself so I can use it properly. Overall the place is ok but it does need to be updating. Enjoyed my stay. Bed was comfortable. It is a very small place and the log burner was useful as it was cold at night. The walks down to the shops and the beach was wonderful and you don't need a car.

“It was in a very peaceful position.”

We walked to Benllech Bay and back it was beautiful. It was easy to drive around and easy to get on and off the usland

Lovely house.

Lynda September 2019

“Sea View is conveniently situated close to the town centre and the beach, although it's a bit of a climb.”

The bungalow is compact but spacious, containing everything you need. It is advisable to use the back door as the front steps can get slippy when wet. We had a lovely holiday and look forward to returning.

- Lynda, September 2019
Gerald September 2019

“Electric sockets twin room do not work”

- Gerald, September 2019
Benjamin August 2019

“We stayed for 7 days at Sea View with our two children, 6 and 3, and were very pleased with cottage and the holiday in general.”

The area is really beautiful, with Benllech Beach and Red Wharf Bay being our favourite places to spend the day. The cottage was lovely and clean when we arrived with some milk and coffee provided which was much appreciated. The road the cottage is situated on is very quiet even during the busy August summer holidays and we really enjoyed a beer on the balcony looking out to Benllech beach of an evening. The facilities in the cottage were all of a good standard, with a BBQ provided, the television and other electric items were in a good condition which has been an issue for us in other holiday cottages, and the kitchen had all necessary items in. The only slight gripe was the lack of a washing machine, and the shortage of hand towels for the bathroom and kitchen which meant we had to buy additional hand towels during the holiday. Otherwise we really loved our holiday and will definitely be back next summer!

- Benjamin, August 2019
Keith June 2019

“The bungalow was very clean and had everything required.”

There was no dishwasher but this was not a problem for us in any way. We were warned well in advance of the power outage and felt the 10% reduction was a generous gesture. All in all we had a wonderful week in very comfortable accommodation.

- Keith, June 2019
Alan May 2019

“This was a great cottage to stay in, well equipped, clean and comfortable, in a quiet location, 5 minutes walk to the shops, pubs and places to eat.”

Perfect location to explore Anglesey. The four of us thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, and will definitely be booking again.

- Alan, May 2019
Ray May 2019

“Nice property close to centre of the village, with all facilities that we required.”

Steep path to cottage and down to beach. Enjoyed long beach walks, including some of the coastal path and visited nice places for food and drinks, including the Beachcomber, Ship Inn, Bradley’s, Tavern on the Bay and the Ocean chip shop. Recommended.

- Ray, May 2019
Brian April 2019

“A lovely bungalow in an elevated position in a quiet cul-de-sac.”

Only a few hundred yards from a bustling village that contains everything you will need on a holiday break. I hope to go again sometime in the future. Some items do need attention. TV remote needs replacing as some buttons don't work.. need to use the on/off button on the TV. Lid missing on the green wheely bin. One of the frying pans need replacing. Apart from that its fine.

- Brian, April 2019
Natasha April 2019

“Sea View was in a lovely location.”

We did ask for a special request for the other king-size bed to be made up, this was not done for us. The beds were comfortable, however the living room sofa was as hard as nails leaving us without comfort in the evenings! I think a little investment to make the furnishing a little more homely/comfortable is due. It was value for money short break.

- Natasha, April 2019
Martin March 2019

“Sea View Cottage is in a lovely location.”

The description on the website is very accurate. It is well equipped and nicely decorated, has everything you need for a short break, with plenty of shops and enough places to eat in walking distance. May benefit from another towel rail to dry towels indoors when four people are staying. All in all it was perfect for our long weekend.

- Martin, March 2019
Jennifer February 2019

“This was a great house to stay in, perfect location and the standard of the house was really high.”

- Jennifer, February 2019
Richard January 2019

“Although there is a sea view, Sea View is on the top end of Benllech and it is quite a walk down to the beach and steep is very accurate in describing the walk back up Breeze Hill.”

“I’ve used Sykes many times and had limited problems.”

This property wasn’t great. Essentially it has no central heating, paper thin walls and electric space heaters that are not up to the task. There isn’t a washing machine (I missed this in the write up). It seems and feels like this property is a “Summer only” let. I spent in excess of £600 for a home, for a week that was constantly cold. I had to have electricians out three times to fix the heater that was simply not fit for purpose. The place looked neat and tidy, but with no blinds in the kitchen, no heating, a very poor shower and various other issues I’d not recommend this place in winter. ******************************************Owner Response****************************************** Thank you for your comments. I am sorry to hear you were disappointed with your recent stay. We are aware that you experienced disruption with 1 of the radiators in the property, which has since been replaced, however the remainder of the heating and log burner were in full working order during your stay. The property has received consistent positive comments, so it is disappointing to hear your stay did not mirror that of others.

- Dave, December 2018

Many thanks for your valuable feedback, we are very disappointed that one of our properties has seemingly let us down and not provided you with the experienced that we had hoped for. We will be contacting the owner of this property shortly regarding the points you have raised. We will then be in touch with you to discuss this in more detail. In the meantime If need to contact us then Our lines are open 7 days a week from 9am until 7pm. Property Owner

“Everything exactly as listed.”

Perfect to use as a base for exploring Anglesey and even enjoyed a night in after a days walking. Great to have local pub and Tesco Express 5 minute walks away.

- Simon, October 2018
Terence September 2018

“Lovely place, but lacking a washing machine.”

David July 2018

“Lovely cottage , well furnished in a quiet part of benllech.”

the only downside was the cottage was a 20 min walk to the beach not a big issue going to beach as its all down hill but it is quite a steep hill on the way back especially if you have items to carry.perhaps you could make this clear on your website

- David, July 2018

“Great Cottage.”

Very comfortable. Quiet Location. Doors sticking.

- Simon, June 2018
Michael June 2018

“We found Fern Hill quite hard to find as we assumed the bungalow was nearer the beach.”

When we found it we were delighted with the bungalow, it was of a very high spec and extremely comfortable. The one drawback that wasn’t made clear was the distance from the beach and it was extremely steep we could understand why it is called ‘heart attack hill!’ There was no way we could walk down to the beach and if we did we would not be able to walk back! Even the walk to the shops was steeper than we understood it would be. This somewhat spoiled the holiday as we had to go everywhere in the car. Other than that we really enjoyed our holiday and we could not fault the bungalow.
